 Have you seen “the Man in white”? Around the world, Muslims are seeing Jesus in dreams and visions—and the divine encounters compel them to discover who this man is.
Have you seen Jesus? Have you experienced the very presence of God? If you have, the encounter will radically affect how you live. If you haven’t yet—keep reading...

 Why Easter Matters - The Power of the Cross
Easter is my favorite holiday of the year. For me, it’s a special time to reflect and remember the message of the cross—"foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” (1 Corinthians 1:18) We have new life when we embrace the work of the cross and believe that Jesus is the risen Lord... Who is Jesus to you?  Be kind. The words are imprinted on T-shirts, bumper stickers—my neighbor even has it on a sign posted in their yard. It’s like a new rule the world has imposed on us, no matter the situation, no matter the person, no matter whether they have a sense of morality or violently oppose yours.
Does anyone else wrestle with being kind?  Are you suffering? It’s easy to praise God when the bills are all paid, the baby’s asleep, the kids are alright. But what about when life turns south? Many of us struggle theologically with “Why does God allow suffering” when we’ve tried to live right, do right, be right...
 Are you anxious? Is it hard to find peace? I had a revelation in church this weekend and it may be exactly what you need to regain a sense of balance in your soul...
 Have you lost your way in this thing called life? God has a purpose for you, and it begins with vision.
“Where there is no vision, the people perish...” Proverbs 29:18 KJV Without vision, the Bible tells us that people perish. Without revelation of who they are and what they’ve been called to, people cast off restraint, reject divine guidance – live their lives as though there’s no God, no Lord, no Savior...  Before you read this, note that this is not a political piece but a spiritual one and an invitation to God’s people to stand in the gap as we near election day.
How do you approach politics and the upcoming elections? Some people adamantly voice their opinions, others are silent on matters and still others don’t even plan to go to the polls, feeling that their vote doesn’t matter...  Joy. It’s an underlying theme throughout the Bible. There’s joy in God’s presence, joy in God’s house, joy when we receive the answer to our prayers. Are you tapping into it?
 Are you showing signs of dehydration? Not physical – but spiritual dehydration. Are you fatigued? Depressed? Do you feel like you’re wandering in a dry and dusty land, without zeal and without hope for relief?
You can live without food for 20-60 days. You can only live three days without water. Without water, body systems change...  Winds blow. Storms come. Are you swayed by “winds of doctrine”? Affected by the news of another scandal in the pulpit? Are you moved by the encroaching agendas of darkness?
