Sat // Build :: Invest
Whatever you do, work at it with all your hearts, as working for the Lord, not for human masters. Colossians 3:23 When we hear the word invest, one of the first things that probably comes to mind is time. Investing in something is a commitment of time of some sort. Time is one of the […]
Sun // Sacrifice :: Exalt
“For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” – Matthew 23:12 To exalt is to praise and lift up. On Sunday, many of us attend church to worship and praise Him. We sing, we pray, we listen to sermons, and we serve. These are all great and […]
Mon // Surrender :: Pride
Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall. – Proverbs 16:18 The “P” word. This word “pride” seems to be the root of all of our sinful nature and desires. We all have desires and desires in themselves aren’t necessarily bad. It is the prideful thought and the prideful action where we can […]
Sat // Build :: Authentic
“Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up” – Eph 4:29 Why is authenticity so hard to find today? It’s a pride thing and because of our pride we don’t want to show our weakness to others. We like to look successful. We […]

Study – Spiritual Warfare
MEN’S STUDY :: SPIRITUAL WARFARE – TERMS OF ENGAGEMENT This fall join a group of guys that want to be spiritual warriors. As men we have such an advantage in spiritual warfare: God has given us plenty of information about our enemy, his character and his strategies. But more important God has given us a six part […]
Thu // Warrior :: Engage
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” – Ephesians 6:12 I see the word engage and my mind goes to movies that have battle scenes in them like […]
Fri // Steel :: Truth
Then you will know truth and the truth will set you free. – John 8:32 Isn’t it interesting when people say “I’m not going to lie, “I’m just being honest,” “truthfully speaking,” and “honestly.” We don’t think twice when we hear or say these words; does that mean all the other stuff we are talking […]
Sun // Sacrifice :: Exalt
For those who exalt they will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted. – Matthew 23:12 Who do we praise? That is a loaded and uncomfortable question. Often times, our praise and focus is on what is at the center of our lives. It could be our jobs, our kids, family and […]
