The Glory

“For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.” (2...

Can Christians do Yoga?

I love running. Over the past year I have really enjoyed learning how to run, running and all the benefits that come with it. One thing that I noticed is that it’s a great way to get rid of anxious thoughts and other emotions of turmoil. When you run for an hour you get a lot of time to think through...

Have You Backslidden?

Have you backslidden? Has your heart grown cold? Do you burn for the fire of God’s presence less than you used to? We’re privileged to have Eric Gilmour on the show, and he talks with undeniable passion about these very things. Eric has been working for a number of years with Christ For All Nations, the...

To The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints

I wanted to look into things myself. I didn’t want to write off a whole people without looking in their eyes and Scriptures myself.  I believe many are guilty of this.  We were told to “stay away” and we never really know who you are or what you stand for.  So I dove in to the scriptures and...

When Richard Wurmbrandt, founder of the Voice of the Martyrs, sought to raise awareness in America of the plight of Christ followers around the world who were being persecuted, tortured, and killed, the American Church looked the other way. He retold only the mildest episodes of the violence he endured,...

Elisha’s Double Portion

What is the secret of the “Double Portion Anointing?” Good question. I think this study can shed some light on the subject. There are many different interpretations on the matter in both the pursuit of scriptural insight and its application in our lives. Most instances include the seeker...

You Are the Fire of the World

In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. (John 1:4-5, ESV) In the beginning of John’s Gospel, we’re told how Jesus Christ had in Himself, life, and was the light of men. It does not say he was an incandescent...

A Brief Commentary on Lam. 2.11-15

Reading from Lamentations 2.11-15 Though this text is a cry from the prophet Jeremiah to his people Israel, I am feeling it’s profound application for the Church in this hour. Verse 11: “My eyes fail from weeping, I am in torment within, my heart is poured out on the ground because my people are...
