Dad. Yes, son. Has the world always been like this? What do you mean? The good and the bad, Dad. It’s like for all the good things there are, there seems to be so much in the world that’s been. It’s like as soon as you enjoy yourself over one thing, you’re informed and reminded […]
Read More Prayer for Change – Who Do You Live For?Rather than institutions and monuments to show that social clubs have lasted generations, what society looks for is a dynamic community growing in love. They won’t see that through activities for the sake of activities. They won’t see that in impressive speeches from appealing individuals designed to captivate without content. They won’t see that in […]
Read More Prayer for Change – ServingThis love is perfect – it’s a perfect love. Not driven by sentiment or requires soft music and appeals to the heart. It is not dependent on how you react or motivated to wait for another to act first. This love looks at the broken, disregarded and abused and extends companionship, healing and restoration. This […]
Read More Prayer for Change – That Kind of LoveI have given them your word and the world has hated them,for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world. My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am […]

Read More Prayer for Change – The Sent OnesIf you want the change, you’ll have to prepare to be different. That is not an easy way to follow especially where the difference will matter. There is a novelty value in being different for the sake of being different. People detect the difference but won’t take it on seriously beyond that novelty value, unless […]
Read More Prayer for Change -The Heart to be DifferentDelusion is a tragic condition of life. Self-delusion is even worse. It would be really pitiful if you thought you lived in a free country when in fact the idea of ‘freedom’ in operation was just as oppressive and enslaving but just did it in more subtle ways. It would be really pitiful if you […]
Read More Prayer for Change – The Totally Christ Dependent ChurchThe change is going to happen. Change is inevitable and comes in a variety of ways. That’s why it’s good to be clear on what kind of change you look for and then see if it’s worth persisting in hope and patience for that change to take place. The follower of Jesus Christ has a […]
Read More Prayer for Change – The Persevering ChurchThe blame culture is nothing new. Some would suggest it’s as old as humanity itself. Nobody is perfect – that should not be an excuse, that should be an understanding allowing the capacity of grace to help us grow. From the beginning of the story, all that was required was for the individual to behave […]
Read More Prayer for Change – The Responsible ChurchLove is the motor – the love of Jesus is truly the life-changing element essential in life. Pursuing the change, as has been considered before, brings us into conflict with those who would prefer that change to be diluted, diverted, disrupted and disputed in the desire to leave folks disillusioned. Not only is that to […]
