How Were You Baptized?
Baptism is a touchy subject in some circles.

Holy Breath
Jesus breathed on them The Pastor spoke on John 20:1-23 yesterday, and oddly, I hardly took any notes, but what I did write down was “breathe, air, wind.” John 20:19-22 NKJV says: Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled, […]
Put God First
What can we do to put God first? How can we “set [our] minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth” (Colossians 3:2 ESV)? Please take a moment to answer in the comments. Every morning I wake up and pray for the words to share with you. Some days the […]
He Will Convict the World of Sin
Do you ever have that sinking feeling that you’ve done something wrong but can’t think of what it might be? I have. When it happens I replay everything I’ve done and thought and said until I pinpoint the culprit. A few times this has happened in response to something I said. But, I didn’t realize […]
Ephesians 4:20-32
Ephesians 4:20-32 NKJVBut you have not so learned Christ, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, […]

Then what if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before? It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. But there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus […]

Tozer, Compiled by Phil Shappard.* These prayers are an answer to our refilling prayer. Tozer’s words are so passionate and so moving I can feel the Holy Spirit stirring within. […]
Reaffirmed
This year my God experiences at Missions College were a series of reaffirmations. God reaffirmed what I’m doing for Him; He reaffirmed the importance of what I pledged for the New Year (to take everything to Him in prayer), and He reaffirmed that with Him, all things are possible (Matthew 19:26). Before I left for […]
A 7-Day Challenge
I’m home. Last week I attended Missions College which is a yearly conference, you guessed it, about missions. The first one I attended in 2020 right before the pandemic was the catalyst behind the book I’m writing. God met me there and made clear what He wanted me to do. This year, He gave me […]
Pray Out Loud
I kind of feel like prayer is my “thing,” you know? It’s what I’m called to do, something I’m passionate about, yet praying out loud, in front of people makes me incredibly anxious. I trip over my words, or worse, can’t find my words. It seems messy. I listen to others pray out loud and […]
