Are You Living The Best God Has For You?

"Flats, blowouts, disappointments, hurts, failures, and all the like are part of life, but sometimes we mistake the ability to get going again as a healing. We’re not reaching our potential. We aren’t living the best that God has for us, and it’s all because we need something more than a temporary fix or a band-aid."

Have You Done A Character Check?

"The depth of a person's character is not measured by his or her physical strength, but by the depth of his or her nobility. How do we treat those who are weaker?"

"The highest form of worship is the worship of unselfish Christian service. The greatest form of praise is the sound of consecrated feet seeking out the lost and helpless."

- Billy Graham
