Time to Dance
TIME TO DANCE! King Solomon wrote in the Book of Ecclesiastes 3, "To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven: A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to DANCE." So don't miss it! Sometimes we need to get with Family/Friends & just have good w...read more
When Love Grows Cold
The Bible says in Matthew 24:12 that because wickedness will increase in the last days the "love of MOST" will grow cold. Don't you choose to live in this statistic though. Keep loving and love hard! Especially HUSBANDS who are commanded by God in Ephesians 5 to "LOVE YOUR WIFE" and wife to submit...read more
Food – Medicine or Poison?
Vendors don’t care what you eat, but you should. The purpose of this post and what our church RiseUp Outreach encourages the congregation is that we need to make FOODS our MEDICINE not our poison. Eating unhealthy foods lead to medication intake down the road. Eating clean is expensive, but so ar...read more
Be Ye Separate is not a suggestion
God's recipe for a VICTORIOUS LIFE never included "mixing or commingling" with worldly ingredients. In fact the Bible says, "loving the worldly system makes you an enemy of God" (James 4:4). OBEDIENCE is the recipe for BLESSINGS (John 13:17) and it proves our love for God (1John 5:2). People talk a ...read more

A Father’s Imprint
Fathers, you are the COMPASS or the CURSE of the family. You’re not suppose to provoke your children to anger, but lead them in discipline and divine instructions. You should raise your children in fairness not pick sides. You should raise your children in consistency with firmness; not to exclude...read more
Comfort Zone Breakthrough
You may love your comfort, but God prefers your faith. You may love predictability, but God invites us on an adventure. You may want relief, but God wants redemption. You may want what’s fair, but God wants to humble you for His glory. You may want a break, but God is after a breakthrough....read more
Get Out Of Neutral
In a culture filled with so many angry voices…it’s way too easy to want to escape and forget our life’s purpose. We want to run from people and in some cases even from God, to a voiceless place of NEUTRAL in the transmission of their faith. Doing this may be good for a few days, but it can cau...read more
