Come and See (The King of Love)
You Have to Be Different to Make a Difference
The world needs to see true followers of Jesus, not people whose only difference is church attendance.
Just Five Minutes of Total, Uncompromising Obedience
You could read volumes on the work of the Holy Spirit, when five minutes total, uncompromising obedience would make things as clear as sunlight.
Free From Guilt and Free From Sin
The Church CAN Change the World!
The church changes the world not by making converts but by making disciples.

Common Sense Is the Gospel Applied to Daily Life
Wisdom is Gospel knowledge applied in Gospel common sense.
W. R. Nicholson, Oneness with Christ (Chicago: Bible Institute Colportage Assoc, 1903), 263.
No Godliness without Prayer
Prayer — secret, fervent, believing prayer — lies at the root of all personal godliness.
An Often Misdiagnosed Condition
Nothing is more often misdiagnosed than our homesickness for Heaven. We think that we what want is sex, drugs, alcohol, a new job, a raise, a doctorate, a spouse, a large-screen television, a new car, a cabin in the woods, a condo in Hawaii. What we really want is the person we were made for, Jesus, and the place we were made for, Heaven. Nothing less can satisfy us. C. S. Lewis said, “The settled happiness and security which we all desire, God withholds from us by the very nature of the world: but joy, pleasure and merriment He has scattered broadcast. We are never safe, but we have plenty of fun, and some ecstasy. It is not hard to see why. The security we crave would teach us to rest our hearts in this world and oppose an obstacle to our return to God.”
Randy Alcorn, Heaven (Carol Stream, IL: Tyndale, 2004), 166.
