God is…… Three shifts in our thinking to help us connect with God

You may know that the Bible says that God is Spirit..... God is light.... and God is love.

However, do you know why those statements are important? Do you know what they indicate about us and our relationship to him? Do you know how these statements can offer guidance in our everyday life? That is what this lesson is going to try to explain.

PS. The last point should probably be the first as it is the context in which all the others take place. If you watch only one part, skip to point three (though the other two are important as well)

Also, feel free to share this video. Send it to someone directly. Share it through your social media accounts if you like. Have a great week!

Try your best, do what you can, but if it goes wrong, it will be ok. Sometimes we talk as though grace and effort are opposites. That is not true. They are partners. In one place, scripture asks, “What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone c...

New Article: Thanksgiving in Real Time

Thanksgiving weekend means that many of us will spend time together with family and friends, eat a lot of food and think about what we are thankful for in our lives. Unfortunately, after that, most will go back to their normal routines and leave thankfulness behind. What would happen if thanksgiving were part of our everyday life, rather than something we focused on a few times per year? Where would we even start? According to Philippians 1:18-26, the apostle Paul remained joyful and thankful, even while imprisoned for his faith, by holding on to three important practic...

Process Produces Progress (1 Peter)

Dreams are good. Plans and expectations are fine. However, only by focusing on the process do we find progress. 1 Peter 1:13 tells us what to do to get to where we want to go (point 3 is my favourite!) https://youtu.be/qyGwN_OOmCQ
