Empowering Encouragement Now segments are based in part on C.H. Spurgeon's Morning & Evening Devotions. This episode is an amalgamation of several days of devotions, with snippets that really speak to my heart extricated and reworked and mashed together into this one train of thought- a blanket of encouragement to guide your 2023. My prayer is that, as we come together in increased manifestations of God's grace, faith, hope, love, fellowship, service, soul winning, humility, prayer, gladness, and joy- that it will result in souls saved and lives transformed, and CITIES TRANSFORMED, all for the Glory of Christ Jesus!"Other Things with...

Some have worked hard to disrupt the use of the sinner’s prayer in leading people to salvation in Jesus by leveling charges against its use, claim it’s not in the Bible, and it can become formulaic, manipulative and man centered. Some of these charges are outright lies, and others are excuses given that lets them off of the hook to diligently share the simple truth of the Gospel and trust God for the results. It is such arrogance and lack of faith in God to think that we can do anything at all to trip up someone to the point that the person is denied access to heaven and instead goes to hell because of us, and or because of a lack of some communication skillset on our part. If we want to see our cities become vibrant and filled with happy people who live caring, productive lives, it starts with us opening our mouths and talking to them about Jesus, in honest, simple ways. “A New Song” by Jan Karon.
