The Hero’s Journey

Sons go through stuff, It’s normal. If something goes wrong, we assume we’re wrong somehow and experience “shame.” Deaths and resurrections are normal pathways for God to reveal His glory in His sons. Not pleasant, but afflictions will lead you...

Spectators to Gladiators

Exousia (G1849) – Ability, privilege, competency, freedom Matt. 28:18-19 – Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations NIV Luke 9:1-3 – And He called...

Throwing Jezebel Out the Window

Jezebel is a spirit present in our national discourse right now. Her influence is deceptive, seductive, controlling, manipulative, intimidating, and ruthless. Her effect on believers is an emasculation of their boldness, clarity, and initiative. Men and women of God...
