Meet the leaders working into our world!
Rus and Glyn Eales are planting Explore Life Church into Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Listen in for what God is calling them to, the timing and details, what they're believing God for and how we can all pray for them in what's to come.
Too many Christians spend most of their life thinking God’s basic call on their life was to stop doing this – stop doing that – stop, stop. And, It’s a really good thing to put off bad habits + behaviors. But the heart of Christian discipleship is not STOP? It’s the word GO!
"Whatever happens, we are what we are because we have come together and we have all played a part. This is Liverpool now: a powerful collective who looks to live in the moment and embrace the joy of it.
"Thank you, Anfield – you are special." 🔴

Average people live by their preferences - what makes them feel good. People of achievement have the mindset,”whatever it takes.” And many times that doesn’t feel good?
“Just because someone plays Beethoven badly doesn’t mean Beethoven was a bad composer. Just because someone lives the Christian life poorly doesn’t mean that Jesus isn’t worth following. God doesn’t ask you to be like Christians; He asks you to be like Jesus Christ.” ~Bob Russell
Don't form attachments to seasonal structure. Noah had a structure that was a necessity. But it was only for a temporary use! MOVE UP WITH GOD! Don't Stay Stuck In A Former Structure That Was Meant To Be Temporary-Jana Alcorn
Vision threatens people because, inherently, vision challenges
the status quo. It calls out the best in people. It asks people to
think bigger, to think beyond themselves, to push past the
status quo and to sacrifice.
And not everybody’s up for that!
So glad that God’s grace has set me free from professionalism & seeking men’s approval. So wonderful to be hidden in the One who has delighted God’s heart.
Just as Satan offers momentary pleasure that leads to long-term pain, our Lord sometimes asks us to endure temporary suffering that leads to eternal reward!
