“The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons (and daughters) of God to be revealed.” (Romans 8:19) “He will wipe every tear from their eyes.

No longer will there be any curse.” (Revelation 22:2-3) (more…)

This message, taken from Coram Deo course material from Disciple Nations Alliance, is one of my favorites because of the clarity it brings to how we can all advance God’s Kingdom – here and now!
The Kingdom advancement is an inside-out advancement. It starts with one’s heart being regenerated, which leads to a renewed mind, which leads to the formation of Christ-like character, which leads to a transformed family, and is then lived out in every sphere of society. Whatever your role/job, you can live this out and advance the Kingdom! (more…)

Now that’s Good News—and it’s for everyone. (more…)

This is the message of Easter—the Resurrection.

When Jesus entered Jerusalem for the final time, this time as king, unmistakably fulfilling Zechariah’s prophecy about Israel’s King coming to her, gentle and riding on a donkey’s colt (Zech. 9:9), he wept over his people and his city. His sorrow was that he knew Israel could not understand what would, on that day, bring her peace. He knew that the leaders of Israel had rejected their Messiah, the Son of Man, in favor of maintaining their position and power given them over their own people by the Romans. They did not recognize the time of God’s coming to them. (Luke 19:44)
Immediately after that, Jesus did something only God as King could do… (more…)
