WHO ARE YOU? If someone asked you, “Who are you?” what would you say? Maybe you would answer with your name, occupation, role within your family, where you come from, or something you have accomplished.

WHY DO WE PREACH THE GOODNEWS? If you knew something that could completely change someone's life, would you keep it to yourself? If you knew there was hope for the hopeless, forgiveness for the sinner, reconciliation with God, and eternal life through Jesus Christ, would you tell somebody?

WHAT DOES KINGDOM LIVING LOOK LIKE? Following Jesus is not limited to attending church, reading the Bible, or praying at certain times. Our relationship with Christ should influence how we live. It affects our decisions, relationships, priorities, finances, work, words, attitudes, service, and the way we treat other people. Jesus taught: “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness...” - Matthew 6:33 (NKJV). Kingdom living begins when God's priorities become more impo

WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE GIVING UP, KEEP GOING There are seasons in life when giving up can feel easier than continuing. You have prayed, waited, tried again, pushed through, and done everything you know how to do, yet nothing seems to be changing. You may be tired of carrying the weight, tired of waiting for an answer, tired of being strong for everyone else, or simply tired of hoping tomorrow will look different from today. Sometimes the hardest part is not starting; it is contin
