Holy Spirit “Failures”
Tim Hughes – Blessed You Are Holy I think one of the most discouraging things being a Christian is witnessing people getting touched powerfully by the Lord… and then falling back into their lifestyle of sin and struggle. This is so discouraging that it has caused many Christians to reject anything of the Holy Spirit, because…

The Progressiveness of the Bible
Jason Upton – Beautiful People I have heard different accusations against the Bible that is an just an old historical book that is outdated. Some people like to point out laws from Leviticus that seem odd or primitive in today’s culture. Recently the LBGT community has mocked the Bible’s laws against homosexuality by pointing out…
Beautiful People
Jason Upton – Beautiful People During a recent trip to America I met a Korean man with quite a past. His childhood was marred by abuse and rejection. His parents divorced when he was young and he was raised by his dad and his stepmother. His stepmother physically abused him and severely mistreated him. His…
What True Life and True Love Really Are…

You’re not a Survivor, You’re a Deliverer!
Josh Garrels – Farther Along One of the things people usually hate to hear is, “It’s not just about you.” That statement usually causes the person hearing it to feel less important, humbled, and less special. Ironically though, that statement should actually propel us into a faith and a trust in God’s plans far beyond…
Responding to “Losses”
While Sky and I were in the States we went to the Korean embassy in DC to apply for a marriage visa which would allow me to live in Korea for a year. I had gotten this visa before with ease, but it had expired and I had to go through the application process again….
