One of the most powerful ways to shine the light to your friends & family is by sharing your personal testimony.

The light of Jesus in us shines the brightest to those we are in relationships with.

The key to a peace-filled life is to intentionally focus your mind on God and to trust Him.John 14:27 (NLT)Isaiah 26: 3 (NLT)

Peace in your relationships brings peace to your life and offers compelling testimony to the world about Jesus.Romans 14:19Ephesians 4:3Hebrews 12:14John 17:20-23Galatians 3:26-28Ephesians 2:14-16Colossians 3:15Romans 12:18Luke 12:51-53John 3:19-21John 15:18-19

The peace of God comes from trusting Him to handle your problems.

The world's peace cannot compare with the supernatural peace that Jesus offers. 

No matter what you've done, the Lord Jesus loves you anyway.

Because of the sacrifice of Jesus we can confidently draw near to God.

The Gospel is for all people, at all times, in all places.

Faith That Won't Give Up. Pt 5Hebrews 12:1-22 Corinthians 5:10Matthew 6:1-6Revelation 4:9-111 Corinthians 9:24-251 Corinthians 3:11-151 Corinthians 9:24-25Matthew 6:19-201 Timothy 6:17-192 Corinthians 4:17-18Luke 19:13-19Matthew 10:41-42Colossians 3:22-24The reward you can receive from Jesus one day should motivate you to run your race with a faith that won't give up.

Physical exercise strengthens the body, spiritual exercise strengthens faith.

Completing your race demands a continuous, active growth of your faith to build the necessary perseverance.

Faith That Won't Give Up Pt 2Hebrews 12:1-2The one who perseveres will one day be given great honor by our Lord Jesus Christ.

To finish the race God has set before you, your faith must continue to grow until it becomes a faith that will not quit. 

God wants you to be certain that He loves you, so He is constantly proving it to you. 

Prayer is one of our most powerful offensive weapons for advancing the Kingdom.

Living a life under the authority of Jesus brings freedom and protection from the enemy.

Jesus has given you the authority to resist the devil but you must exercise that authority.

The Christian life isn't about perfection, but about consistent progress in pursuing a deeper relationship with Jesus.

When evil happens, we respond by trusting in God and pointing others to Him.

Don't leave your gifts unopened under the tree!Isa 9:6Isa 7:14John 3:14-16Numbers 21:5-9I Cor 15:22Rev 13:8John 12:32,33I Pet 2:24GAL 3:13

Jesus is the king born to save us from our sins.

Jesus has the right to be the King of your life.
