Peace Over Perfection – Faith Chang

Karl and Crew ·

2024/06/10

Many Christians, often without even realizing it, struggle with a type of Christian perfectionism. We strive to please God but are plagued with anxiety about making mistakes. We want to do God’s will but live with a self-berating inner voice even as we seek to serve Him! We sincerely believe the gospel and love Jesus but struggle with never feeling good enough before God. How can Christians wholeheartedly pursue God without an undercurrent of guilt, fear, or anxiety? How can imperfect people

When Intrusive Thoughts Come – John Beeson

Karl and Crew ·

2024/06/07

Do you ever battle intrusive thoughts? Our minds are factories of thoughts—some intentional, some not. We strategize, reflect, and ruminate. Sometimes uninvited thoughts pop into our minds. Sometimes these thoughts are born of morbid curiosity. While driving along a winding mountain highway, suddenly we imagine what would happen if we jerked the wheel to the right. Other times, such thoughts arise from our sinful hearts. Stewing on mistreatment from a colleague, we imagine how we could put him

Whether sitting in your home or at a restaurant, we feel the pull of distraction coming from our screens. They come in different shapes and sizes. Pastor and author Bryan Schneider writes this: "Our culture can't stand boredom. We can hardly imagine sitting in silence. We can't wait in a doctor's office without a screen.....What impact does all of this have on our attention and our ability to deeply connect with others? Are we giving up relationships for pixels? Are we no longer able to listen to

De-sizing the Church – Karl Vaters

2024/05/28

Big churches didn't create the problems facing today's congregations. But our obsession with size has come at a great cost. For a long time, we thought bigger was better. "Church growth" and "numbers" dominated our thoughts and conversations. But more than ever, people are feeling disconnected. Trust in the church is dwindling. Karl Vaters has served in small-church ministry for over 40 years. He stopped by and dispelled some prevailing myths and invited us to consider how removing church size from

We often hear the phrase, “There is power in prayer,” but what does prayer have the power to do? The ultimate power in prayer is that God acts as our Father, giving us good things when we ask. He desires to do good to us, and He answers when we pray, but to help us meditate even further on the power of prayer, we want to talk about some things prayer has the power to do!https://fightoffaithblog.com/2024/05/06/5-things-prayer-has-the-power-to-do/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy

2024/05/21

God can—and does—work through anyone and everything, including our sin and failures. Just look at the book of Judges for instance. We see flawed man after flawed man leading the floundering nation of Israel. Each time, God uses even their sin to accomplish his own purposes! It’s not just that their sin can’t derail God’s plan; it’s that God uses their inevitable sin as part of His plan. Of course, using sinners and their sin makes sense since God only has sinners

Even though as believers we’re destined for eternal glory, many of us languish in earthly mindedness. Having never set their sights on things above, they lack hope in adversity and vibrancy in their faith. Where can believers find joy and inspiration for everyday life? It’s in the already-and-not-yet reality of heaven. Following the unexpected loss of his firstborn child, Pastor Cameron Cole’s daily focus shifted drastically heavenward.

Mountain Top Experiences – Peter Witkowski

2024/05/16

When the apostle Peter encounters the transfigured Christ whose “clothes became white as light,” the apostle (somewhat understandably) does the one thing he should not do…he speaks (Matt 17:4). Before he can fully explain why he wants to create three tent or hut like structures, the heavenly Father graciously interrupts the apostle’s meandering daydream. Matthew reports: “He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud

Olivia Davis: “I hated my story. I didn’t see in it the marvelous weaving of God’s mysterious ways, the undercurrents of His love in the most impossible circumstances, or a hope that never fails. I looked at my life and saw indifference, and hurt, and a God who seemed silent when I was the most desperate for His voice. Suffering through the pain of being single felt unfair and unreasonable and unnecessary. How could Jesus be the One I wanted when this was my story?” Does this
