I really want to talk about this idea for the next few days because I think it's important. If you've followed the Word Without Walls ministry for any length of time you probably know that I love pro wrestling. And that one of my favorites from back in the day was Mr. Perfect. He was so cool, man....

Here it is, the grand finale of this Rant series. Phillipians 2:13, "For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure." His good pleasure--for Him to be our God and for us to be His people... that loving relationship between heavenly Father and beloved Son in whom He...

I'm going to try to make this as simple as I possibly can. Ephesians 1:4-5, "According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself,...

Have you ever the phrase, "A happy wife equals a happy life"? Well, in this case, when we're talking about a happy God, it's more "Happy kids equal a happy heavenly Father." I cannot, for the life of me, figure out why people are so interested in an angry, distant, taskmaster of a God who is always...

The part about our key verse for this Rant series, Luke 12:32, "Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom," that we didn't even really get to look at yesterday, that I really like, is the "fear not" part. Because we, as a human race, are very anxious...

It seems to me that people like Joseph Prince and Joel Osteen kind of get a bad rap for preaching a "happy gospel." As if we truly are sinners in the hands of an angry God, and that's the kind of thing we need to focus on. To me, though, that's crazy. The gospel literally means "good news." I don't...

This might seem like a weird way to end this Rant series, but I want to talk about Luke 12:29-30, "And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of...

Here's the key to the Kingdom, if I can put it that bluntly: Romans 12:2, "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." The way to not be conformed... is to be transformed....

I love the light. It is such a powerful picture of God and His love for us (which is really the same thing, because God IS love). The light of the world shining in us and through us. Jesus said HE was the light of the world, and He said that WE are the light of the world. Because it's the same...

Your thought life is so important. What you thnk, what you believe, what you dwell on, what you magnify in your life is what will manifest in your life. If you wake up and you're like, "Today is going to be horrible," well, it probably will be. And not necessarily because of anything that will or...
