When you know your purpose, your life changes; you become focused. Your decisions become clearer. Your priorities align with God’s direction for your life.
~ Pastor Chris
The gospel is meant to be preached and believed, meaning you will look for people, open your mouth, and tell them the good news.
We weren’t instructed to shift culture through influence and money. It rarely even happens, and when it does, people may end up believing the wrong thing. The way the apostles shifted the culture, that is, “turned the world upside down,” was through the preaching of the gospel.
Times have changed, but the power of the gospel is still in opening your mouth to preach it.
My biggest issue with the “culture shaping” conversations, is how influence has been presented as a better alternative to evangelism.
Influence is not the power of God unto salvation, the gospel is. The gospel is also not a call to better living.
Open your mouth and preach!
I had a really good conversation with Eric Gugua.
This conversation reminded me that what looks like overnight success is usually years of work we simply didn't get to see.
Offense?
Holding a grudge?
Unforgiveness?
The Holy Spirit will check you FAST if He loves you! 😂🤣
He doesn’t even care whether you were right or wrong. He cares about the condition of your heart, the assignment is bigger than your feelings.

It would be amazing to hit 20K by the end of today. ❤️

Never make fun of someone if they mispronounce a word.
It means they learned it by reading.
The older I get the more I suspect that the worst part about going to hell is realizing that God had entirely rigged the game in your favor and yet you still somehow found a way to lose.
There’s something so beautiful about talking about God with someone equally yoked in Christ….talking about His love, how we’ve experienced Him in different areas of our lives, our faith, and just everything He’s been teaching us. It’s such a beautiful connection. 🤍
