Jesus called his followers to share his message with others. ‘The Holy Spirit will testify about me, but you also must testify, because you have been with me.’ (John 15:26-27) His message, his ‘good news’, being his own name and person: ‘God with us.’ (Matthew 1:23) God has come. His name is Jesus Christ. He paid for our sin by his own death. He came back to life. He calls us to turn away from our sin, to believe in him. If we do this, we will be forgiven, and live forever with God. This is the message that messengers brought to you and me. And this is the message that we are to...

The most religious and powerful people in Jesus’ time, well, we don’t even know their names. Their glory faded with them. And yet the poor, the uneducated and nameless, well, we know them, their legacy if not their names, and they have changed history. It’s not what they did, but rather what Jesus did for them. You see, when Jesus honors a person, that honor is true legacy. We want to know them, and be known by them, because Jesus honored them. A prostitute who had been healed, one day poured perfume on the head of Jesus. His own disciples, the famous twelve and others, rebuked her, ...

It is 1967, and as America's allies hesitate over whether to send more troops to Vietnam, and the strains of "All You Need is Love" echo from Abbey Road, students take to the streets of Wellington, New Zealand, to protest the war. Among them are Race, Candy, Chadwick, and FitzGerald, and their elusive, electrifying friend Morgan Tawhai. They are young and hopeful, and the world is all before them. Forty years later, in Washington, DC, Race's son Toby is navigating his own path across a landscape still trembling with the reverberations of 9/11.

A father’s acceptance. A father’s delight in you. Listen, whether your father gives you this or not, it doesn’t change your true worth, the true you. Jesus said, ‘Do not call anyone no earth ‘father’, for you have one Father, and he is in heaven.’ (Matthew 23:9) You might have some DNA from an earthly parent, but that is surface stuff. The real stuff is that you have been ‘made in the image of God’, and that he has put eternity in your heart. The deep truth about you comes from the throne room of your Creator, your Father in heaven. And your true and ‘secret’ name will...

¿Has perdido tu camino? ¿Tuviste una verdadera fe en Jesús en algún momento, pero ahora te encuentras distanciado? Jesús conoce tu camino. Conoce tu historia. Te ama y te llama de vuelta a casa. ‘Todavía estaba lejos cuando su padre lo vio y se compadeció de él; salió corriendo a su encuentro, lo abrazó y lo besó.’ (Lucas 15:20) Peter Walker y su familia viven en Carolina del Norte, Estados Unidos.

Incluso el nombre ‘escuela media’ te hace sentir como si no estuvieras aquí, ni allí, ¡estás en el medio! Sin embargo, la verdad es que la secundaria no está en ‘segundo lugar’, ¡es un lugar muy importante por derecho propio! Y esta etapa de tu vida (tu edad, tus amigos, tus sentimientos) también es muy importante.

El propósito de la vida, para todo hombre, mujer y niño, es alcanzar y encontrar a Dios. Conocerle, ahora y siempre. ‘Dios creó a todos los hombres para que lo buscaran, lo alcanzaran y lo encontraran’. (Hechos 17:25-27) Y este último versículo termina diciendo: ‘Él no está lejos de cada uno de nosotros.’ ¿Ha llegado a tu vida la hora de que busques a Dios y lo encuentres? ¿Ha llegado el momento de hacer las paces con Dios, ahora y siempre? Jesús dijo: ‘Yo soy la puerta...’ (Juan 10:9) Peter Walker y su familia viven en Carolina del Norte, Estados Unidos. Para más ...

El corazón puede romperse de muchas maneras y por muchas razones. Sin embargo, en este breve folleto te escribo a ti, que has sido herido por – contra quien ha pecado, de quien se ha aprovechado – otra persona. Me dirijo a los abusados. El corazón roto al que espero hablar es al que le fue robado algo, y ahora le cuesta esperar, sentir, creer. Jesús te ama. Él está contigo. Él persigue y juzgará al que te hizo daño. No sólo pedirá cuentas a tu agresor, sino que en este mismo momento Jesús anhela derramar Su Espíritu sanador sobre ti y darte un ‘corazón nuevo y un ...

I remember when I was six years old and saying goodbye to a friend. Our family was moving country. We had everything packed and the car engine running. This buddy came running out and handed me his prized keychain as a gift. I knew it was his favorite of all time – a little Lego man on a chain. Our friendship meant more to him than his favorite thing, so he gave me the thing to make sure I knew that. Jesus had an amazing experience like this one time. It was shortly before his death, and a woman named Mary sensed this. Jesus had meant a lot to this woman; he had forgiven her sins and had ...

Elias Girawong, Earth Wizard and knowledge keeper, must act. His ceremony, calling the thirteen, heralds a long overdue change to shake the foundations of life itself. But there are those who covet power beyond reason. Each of the thirteen "called" have their assigned roles. Each of them must travel to join the circle of thirteen. Each of them must face the challenge of their journey and the will and power of those who would thwart them.

I love to hide. I love to get off the grid of life, even just for half an hour. I sometimes make a cup of coffee, turn off my phone, and sit on the floor somewhere in a back room of the house, or in the shed, and just close my eyes. We live in a torn and broken life. Think about your day for a minute. Everything we do is survival: working for money, using it buy food to ward off hunger, to pay rent for a roof overhead; washing clothes for work, sleeping for energy to work, appointments for health, for teeth, for hair, for repair… car breaks down and insurance won’t pay. And then there ...

Jesus did not pursue success – or influence or impact – in the way of the world. He worked in an almost completely opposite way to what we consider ‘natural’. When Jesus healed a person, he would often ask the healed person to not tell anyone. At other times he would only partially heal, and send the person away from the crowds, from the onlookers, to experience the rest of the healing. When Jesus changed water to wine, he only allowed the servants to see and know what he was doing. Everyone at the wedding tasted the miracle, and in a sense it was the rich that benefitted from it, ...

Let’s start by talking about ‘groups’ in life. And when I say groups, I mean friend groups, working groups, gangs, sororities, frats, Freemasons, book clubs, committees, church groups, tennis clubs, country clubs, etc. Groups don’t really exist. I mean, they are a thing, of course, but a fabricated thing. Held together by people’s notions. Take for example that friend group you had a few years ago, where is it now? Or that BFF from school? Or that project group that were ‘so close’? I don’t mean to be cynical here. Not at all. Just trying to get back to those elements in ...

In this short book I work in reverse order. I begin by sharing where I’m at now in dealing with cults, and then I work back to explain how I got to this place over the years. I share some personal experiences and key Scriptures, which have helped me grow in this area and find a footing in dealing with cults. I focus mainly on the core and common error of them all, i.e. denying the true identity of Jesus, and therefore the true message of the gospel. (2 Corinthians 11:4) Let me define a cult very simply here: Any offshoot of Christianity that denies the identity of Jesus, and adds that you...

20 reflections to help you grow in your new life with Christ. 'Jesus himself came up and walked along with them…’ (Luke 24:15) www.1peter1three.weebly.com

A short booklet that asks this most important question.

When we enter through the Gate of Jesus - by repentance and faith - we enter into his eternal kingdom. In that moment, we become citizens of heaven. Yes, we still find ourselves here on earth, but everything has changed. Earth is no longer our home nor our future. Once we belonged to this world, and it was all we had, all we could invest in and build. But now we belong to a different kingdom, we serve a different king, and we live to advance his kingdom.
