The Power of Jesus

May 8, 2022

We are not left with the idea that Jesus is just one of many ways to get to heaven. He does not leave us that option. In fact, Jesus is crystal clear that He is the way to receive eternal life. He is the central figure in the salvation of all mankind. For not only does Jesus have the power to give life, but He has the power to determine your eternal destiny.

Intimate Equals

May 1, 2022

If you are building your identity on who you are as God’s child; if you are building your relationship with the One who will never leave you nor forsake you; if you are building your identity as the child of the Almighty God who brings princes to naught, who reduces the rulers to nothing – then the next time someone tries to criticize you, intimidate you, or oppose you – you will not cower nor crumble, but you’ll stand confidently because you will know Him who is with you and for you. 

Reboot Encouragement

November 21, 2021

When you stand firm in Christ with God’s people, you encourage those who serve with you, you encourage those who watch over you, you encourage those who pray for you, and you encourage everyone else who is standing firm with you.  You can never underestimate the power of your faithfulness to Jesus Christ.

Rock Springs Reboot: Be Different

August 1, 2021

The Christian is not to be characterized as someone who takes, but as someone who gives.  After all, “God so loved the world that He gave His One and only Son, that whoever believes in Him might not perish, but have eternal life!”  Giving to help others is what makes us like God.  God is a good and generous God.  He gave His best for us.  So the point here is not so much as to be useful, but to be useful for the sake of others – to give to help others in need. 

Rock Springs Reboot: The Holy Spirit in You

June 1, 2021

If the Spirit has set you free from the burden of the law, if the Spirit is changing you so you now want what God wants, and if the Spirit is empowering you to kill off the old life and embrace this new life in Christ –  that means, the Spirit in You is leading you.  And the very fact that you are living surrendered to His leading is a clear statement that you are a new person in Christ.  More specifically, you are a child of God.  And the good news is that God has done all of this for you.

Values: Every Person Blesses

March 11, 2021

God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all that there were no needy persons among them.  That’s what God’s grace does!  When God’s grace takes hold in your heart, it makes you a gracious person.  Giving becomes second nature.  You want to give.  You want to help because God has helped you!

Values: Every Person is Essential

February 21, 2021

“We need you.”  “We could use you.”  I remember the first time I heard those words.    I was a new student and just moving into my room on the third floor of the men’s dorm at Western Baptist College and I didn’t know anyone.  Then I met Chuck.  He was wearing his soccer gear and… Read More »

There is No One Like Jesus

February 7, 2021

The ultimate end of following Jesus is knowing Jesus.  It’s about having a relationship with Jesus, where just being with Him is enough.  It’s about having a relationship with Jesus where you are so captivated by His beauty, and so satisfied with His love, that the things of this world lose their power over you, so that all you want is more of Jesus.

The Gospel: How The Gospel Changes Our Identity

September 27, 2020

You are not the same person you once were.  You are now different.  God sees you as a holy one, a saint.  You were a sinner. But God made you a saint.  That’s what it means to embrace your new identity in Christ.  To see yourself as God sees you.  Fully alive to Him, set-apart for Him, with unlimited potential to do the works He has prepared for you.
