If you want more of Jesus, the solution is NOT less of you!  It is something far better!  In this article, I’m going to show you how to actually have more of Jesus in your life without losing your unique purpose and role in this world. The ultimate end of “more of Jesus; less of(…)

Imagine a church where every single Christian is a perfect representative of Jesus and functions in beautiful unity to reveal Christ to the world around them.  That’s the purpose of fivefold ministry! If you’ve never heard of the term, “fivefold ministry” is a sort of buzzword that has gained steam over the past few decades.(…)

Are you stuck in the tomb? This being the weekend when billions around the world celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus, I couldn’t contain a message that has been burning in my heart for some time. Today I want to share with you the key to power, authority, and intimacy with God! It sounds(…)

How do you minister healing to a person whose sickness is caused by sin? For example, what if the person has diabetes because she is a glutton?  What if the person has AIDS because he was promiscuous?  What if the person has liver disease because of years of drunkenness?

This morning, a gunman murdered 20 children and 6 adults during a school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, before taking his own life. In the midst of a horrifying tragedy like this one, it’s easy to wonder how a good God could allow something so evil to take place. Many Christians(…)

What if I told you that God does NOT want you to reap what you’ve sown? Sowing and reaping is an eternal spiritual principle that is described in the Bible. It is such a universal reality that many cultures and religions recognize it in some form (ever heard of “karma?”).  The idea that “doing bad(…)

In the first two pictures to the right, you can see various scars I used to have on my face.  In the first picture, I was 17, and in the second picture, I was 18. Shortly after that, though, was the healing I’m about to share with you, which resulted in the third picture, taken(…)

Have you been seeking your own physical healing for a long time without results? I’ve been there! In the past couple weeks, I’ve received three e-mails from Christians who have been seeking their own healing for a long time without results.
