We live to honor Christ.  We would die for Him.  He is our King.

We despise sin and defeat it daily by the power of the Word.  We live by Father's grace and are led by His Spirit.

The Gospel means more to us than life.

This is who we are.

This is how we live...

And, when all is said and done, may it be said of us simply, that we knew Christ.

New site...

Hello all.

I pray that you are well and full of the life and love of our Savior.

I love that it is in the darkest times of our lives that we can move to become the closest we have ever been to touching the Master.  I am grateful.

That said, I am here now: Bring the Fight Now

Click to read and discover.  And then, worship.

Enjoy.

Sweetly Broken

If only we knew the depth of His love for us...our hearts would surely burn to know Him.

The incalculable filth of our sin speaks of the overwhelming mercy of our Savior.  Who are we that He would choose us, in the arrogance of our rags, to know Him, and to become like Him.

Impossible.  Unrequested and undeserved, that we may seek Him, and find Him...to know Christ in His magnificence.  Savior.  King.  Provider.  Lover.  Warrior.  Victor.  Master.  Lord.

Let us comply.  We must.  For if we really knew Him, perhaps our lives would look entirely different...perhaps we would live with real purpose.  Perhaps the world would see that there is a God, and that He is altogether different, more powerful, more loving, and more just than anyone their confused minds have conjured up...



At the Cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees
I'm lost for words, so lost in love
Sweetly broken, holy surrender

Friends…soldiers…


Father has been pressing my heart deeply for many days to pray for you.  It seems many are weary of this fight we live in, tired of suffering, giving in to sin, throwing in the towel.

Let me remind you of the power of the Gospel, and I will remind you of Father's great Love.  I will remind you of the beauty of enduring for Christ because His grace has actually qualified you for the task!  No…let it not be this way anymore.  Step it up my friends.  Get your act back together by getting on your knees.  Find peace and strength again at the foot of the cross and then go back to war.  This is not a game we are living in!  The simpleminded are the first who are shot.  Pay attention.  Fix your gaze on Christ, the author and finisher of your faith…and press on.  He will have the final say, and it will be marvelous….

If you've never had your heart broken...

...then you've never experienced the healing touch of the Father
you've never tasted of His goodness
never
walked in His perfect grace
and you've never sounded the depths of His love

yes...I'm blessed to have been to hell, because now I know a Savior...

whose
love is endless, and whose faithfulness is matchless.



how well do you know Him?
