It is difficult to love those who do not share the same beliefs as we do. This means it is just as difficult to love those in the church as it is to love those outside the church and even more difficult to love God.

A Little Understanding – Stuck in the Entryway
If something affects the individual Christ follower, it almost always affects the collective of Christ followers. The blur of needs, wants and extras have made it difficult for churches to encourage maturing. With the world’s way of operating just outside the entryway and Satan selling his snake oil fixes, the church has become more focused on talents and hard work than on God and His call. (more…)
Life is far more complicated than the childish sets of rules that religion demands we follow. With childlike faith we must approach our heavenly father and ask him what His plan, done His way, following His timing, using His chosen resources looks like for our lives and our churches.
Sin is the perversion of the desires God has given us. Our strongest desire is a more fulfilling life but instead of seeking more of God at any cost we often give into the temptation to seek more of the world’s pleasures at an even greater cost.
A Christ follower is always seeking more of God.
God is the only way to fill the empty spot in our lives, all other endeavours fall short.
