Keeping Your Balance

Have you ever tried to witness to somebody and felt like your words were falling flat? You knew all the answers to their questions, but you didn’t feel like you were able to answer them in a way that caused them to want to actually listen. You weren’t able to relay the wonder and excitement through your words. Perhaps, you have a different problem; you feel led to witness to somebody but you are scared to death you won’t have the answers to their questions. You are worried you will make things worse due to your lack of knowledge and understanding.

Always a Servant, Never a Slave!…or Am I?

The World

Did you realize we are all born into slavery? I know living in America, we are all told that we are born free, but in reality we are slaves the moment we come into this world. Most don’t realize it and we go about our daily lives thinking we are in complete control. The reason we think that, is because the slave master doesn’t want us to know that we are slaves. He doesn’t want us to know that we are under his control. He prefers to do his work in the shadows; remaining unseen and unnamed. He has an army of slave-drivers who have the job of keeping us in line; believing the lie and stuck in the trap.

LOVE Vs. love

Love is quite possibly one of the most constantly discussed topics in the world. It is one of, if not the most, commonly used theme in entertainment media: music, movies, novels, poems, TV shows, and even games. It is the main theme of the Bible. I consider the Bible to be the greatest love story ever told; the story of how much God loves all of us. However, it is also a topic of much dissension and confusion. Jesus’ final command to us was to love each other; reminding us that people would know we were His followers by how we loved. The world is clearly obsessed with the idea of love; a quick listen to the radio or a study of recent movie releases will quickly confirm that. The post-modern Christian movement even bases their entire belief system on loving and accepting everyone. Love is important to all three groups, so why can’t any of us really seem to agree on much when it comes to love? How can one topic cause so many arguments?

Who You Represent?

              In sports if you were to ask this question, “Who you represent,” most athletes would respond by telling you the team they play for or possibly the college they hailed from. In fact, we are quickly approaching the Olympics, and those athletes take a great amount of pride in being able to represent their respective countries. A lot of musicians would tell you the city they are from. Military personnel would tell their branch and possibly their platoon and company. What about Christians? Who do we represent?
