Lost is a Spiritual Problem
Sometimes life just seems to have led us down a dead end. This can be experinced as bad relationships, depression, low mood state, poverty and so on. There seems to be nowhere to go, no way out, and our dreams and desires are further away than ever. There is a way out. There is a way to get back on track.

A Mother's Battle
The tongue is such a tiny little organ. Yet, it can be one of the most powerful weapons. James 3:6 says; And the tongue is a fire. The tongue is a world of wickedness set among our members, contaminating and depraving the whole body. Whew, those are some strong words…

God Became Man
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. --JOHN 1:14
For thirty-three years Jesus felt everything you and I have ever felt. To think of Jesus in such a light is—well, it seems almost irreverent, doesn’t it? It’s not something we like to do; it’s uncomfortable. It is much easier to keep the humanity out of the incarnation. There is something about keeping Him divine that keeps Him distant, packed, predictable. But don’t do it. For heaven’s sake, don’t. Let Him be as human as He intended to be. Let Him into the mire and muck of our world. For only if we let Him in can He pull us out. Listen to Him.

A Relationship With Spirit Without Religious Metaphors
Sometimes we fear a relationship with the creator because of all the Yukky stuff that we assume that goes along with it. Those things are best left in the past. Why not make you best friend one that is willing to share the awesome power that he/she has with you unconditionally. A friendship with meaning on your terms no matter how you see yourself.

No Other gods Before Me
Idolatry in all of its many forms retains one consistent principle: it does nothing for the worshipper, provides no power, offers no hope. God has a claim on our hearts, and this claim is exclusive. He yields ground to no other Master, no other god. He wants all of us, so that He can bless us in our totality.
