Suffering is real. Life's trials can leave us confused, cynical, and eventually bitter, even at God. At the J-Curve seminar we hope to demonstrate that for those united to Christ even our deepest and darkest trials have meaning. Come learn with us!
We were totally unable to come to a recognition of the Father’s favour and grace except through the Lord Christ, who is the mirroring image of the Father’s heart. Without Christ we see nothing in God but an angry and terrible Judge.

Jesus fought and won his battle against temptation for you. In his victory over the devil is your victory as well, for all that Christ accomplished has been reckoned to you as your own.
When you fall prey to the temptations of Satan, flee to the One in whom Satan has already been defeated. Those who are in Christ Jesus cannot be harmed by the enticements of evil. As in Adam you died in sin so in the obedient Christ you live.
Repent and return to him. Leave the Old Adam with his death and come to the New Adam with all his life. He will receive and embrace you as his own. He who was tempted for you is never tempted to turn you away who turn back to him.
His baptism is your baptism, his conquering of sin is your conquering of sin, his crucifixion, his resurrection, his ascension are all yours. What belongs to the Head belongs to the Body, and you are the Body of Christ, living members of that man who is also God, the one in whom you have the life of the Father.
“Lead us not into temptation,” our Father, but lead us into the One who conquered the Tempter for us, Jesus Christ, our Lord.
"I personally know of no greater power for creating new obedience than the power of faith. I am thinking of a faith that begins by resting on the love God has for us, and then cleansed by that love, warmed by that love, to return love to God with joy.”
Jack Miller
When you approach God in prayer, don’t think of a majestic, almighty old man in the clouds.
Picture a man with
—scars of suffering
—eyes that have wept
—ears that have heard hate
—a mouth that’s hungered
—a heart that’s bled
There is no more sympathetic listener than Christ.
“The American church is functionally prayerless when it comes to corporate prayer.” – @_PaulEMiller in “A Praying Church”
If you haven’t read “A Praying Church” yet, this review of the book is a good place to start. https://t.co/X05fJAUhAz
When you begin to understand the truths about how Jesus and the Spirit work together, your faith can grow. He's not just out there running the universe. He's actually down here in all of this mess…
