Purpose

There are no qualities or failings that disqualify us, but there are some common “ingredients” we can find in the people God uses to do the extraordinary.

When life gets hard and unexpected challenges take their toll, it’s easy to start making compromises.

No matter what problems you may face, God has a way to make them purposeful. God helps us change our perspective so that we see problems as opportunities.

Building self-discipline is what gives us the ability to bridge the gap between aspiration and victory.

To change the world, we must change the church. This starts with every Christian deciding to transform personally, beginning with our personal relationship with God.

Many Christians become deceived because our entire experience is lived within the church. God wants us to expand our world to see he has bigger things in store.

God wants us to evaluate ourselves by how deep and strong our faith is. He doesn’t evaluate our spiritual condition by looking at how we appear on the surface. The depth of our faith determines how much of a difference we can make in the lives of those around us.

God orchestrates the people we encounter and the relationships we build, so that he can use us to change lives.

We may feel regret, and think that this is just who we are. God understands how we feel, but wants to help us see that we are not defined by our mistakes.

When we are insecure, it can be easy to feel like we are a “nobody going nowhere.”

We can learn to start each new day aware of the strengths and talents God has given to us, and consider how he wants to work in our lives to change the world.

Often, the challenge that I face is that I get inspired to want to make a difference, but don’t realize that I first must allow God to change me.
