We are not set apart in holiness in order to earn our salvation. We are set apart in holiness THROUGH salvation.

A lifestyle of consecration and separation is an act of continual submission to His desires for us and His protection over us.

South Carolina belongs in the playoff, might be the hottest team in the whole crappy field.

[Dan Orlovsky @danorlovsky7]

Almost 2 years ago, my wife and I hired a dog sitter in our neighborhood to watch our pup while we went out of town for a couple weeks.

Today we baptized her in Jesus Name. She and her fiancé both received the Holy Ghost.

Discipleship. It’s a long game.
