Anyone who belongs to Christ is a new person. The past is forgotten, and everything is new. (2 Corinthians 5:17). Clean slate. That simply means God has granted you a fresh start. He has pardoned your old offenses and way of life. He isn't holding your past against you (good or bad). Who doesn't need that kind of grace? Jesus sits at the right hand of God the Father and intercedes for you.  "Father, give them a break. Everyone makes mistakes."  "Okay Son. I'll do just that." God isn't sitting in heaven ready to sentence you to hell just because you've made some mistakes in your life. Everyone makes mistakes and fall short of God's standards. But He does want you to come to your senses and ask Him for forgiveness for your sins. Q. So what is repentance? A. Repentance is to turn away from your sins or from wrong behavior. It's taking the initiative to stop making the same mistakes over and over again. Kick the habit in other wor...

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” (Acts 1:8). The Holy Spirit is God's Spirit Who dwells inside every Christian. The Holy Spirit empowers Christians to effectively share the the Word of God and the message of Jesus with others. He is not an It or That, but a He in the masculine form of the God head.  The Holy Spirit comforts us. He helps, heals, and guides us. Everything that we do as Christians the results of the Holy Spirit within us.  In saying that I want to stay on topic and share a few pointers on how to share Jesus with others.  . Pray first. Get God involved through prayer. Invite the Holy Spirit into your conversations and opportunities to share Jesus with others. Prayerfully allow the Holy Spirit to carry the conversations. This means your heart is open to what the Holy Spirit wants to say through you to others. Pray duri...

Get Up and Get Over It When leadership mishaps happen, and they will, get up, and get over it. Challenges will happen. They're apart of leading others. However, challenges and their impact on the outcomes can be minimized. When leaders are proactive, proactive actions can lead to wins. Every challenge doesn't have to be complicated or lead to a loss. Challenges can be simplified and utilized as experience in future endeavors.  Brainstorm a plan for the best results. Write down your tasks and goals. But remember, before you write down your tasks, you need goals in place. Next, identify your challenges. Identity what steps are necessary to overcome challenges? Then ask yourself, do these challenges require just a solo effort or a group effort to improve outcomes?  Finally, track your emotional pulse. Are you overwhelmed? Do you have a grasp on the current situations that your team and organization is facing? What's your footing when tackling challenges and circums...

The Call of A Disciple What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus? Discipleship is to follow one's guidance, teachings, and character. Sometimes, discipleship requires leaving something or someone to become your best self. The Bible says that many of Jesus' disciples immediately left behind something in order to gain something. What are you holding onto? What is God asking you to leave behind in order to gain what He has for you? The Bible reveals that many of Jesus' disciples followed Him without hesitation or procrastination.  Those that were hesitant to follow Jesus were often asked not to follow Him. People who had shown double-mindedness would only become a stumbling block to the mission and purpose of Jesus. Jesus' intentionally called those that He could count on. Jesus knew that reforming their mindsets would take some time and teaching. However, with some time and teaching, He knew that they would learn a new way of life, a better way thinking and ...
