Life isn't perfect and that's the kind of world where Jesus showed up. He wasn't born in a palace on a perfect day. He was born in the middle of the night during tax season to an unwed couple in a stable or a cave in a sheep field. That was God's way of showing us that nothing is perfect. Life is chaotic. It's messy. That's what Jesus was stepping into.

It's not the elements of our worship that are awesome. It's the object of our worship Who is awesome.

Christ didn't die just so you could make to heaven; He lives so you can make it through earth!

It is not God's will that you limp along in life believing that you are inadequate.

God doesn't call people to a job description, He calls people to Himself and His mission in the world.

Humility is not a character trait to develop, it's the natural by-product of being with Jesus.

Nothing steals God's glory more than worrying believers who are driven through life by fear

Simply by our proximity to Jesus, we can bring hope and life to people and places trapped in discouragement and despair.
