Idolatry
“For according to the number of your cities, are your gods, O Israel.” Jeremiah 2:28 As we approach the Call 2 All on July 5, I encourage you to think and pray about the sins of America and your own heart that have brought us to this time of need before God. Many years ago [...]
Return to Me and I Will Return to You
“The Lord has been very angry with your fathers. Therefore say to them, ’Return to Me,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘and I will return to you.’” (Zechariah 1:2-3) We are being offered a marvelous and merciful window of opportunity to demonstrate corporate repentance and prayer on Sunday, July 5.

Lord, We Need Your Help
As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him; for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust (Ps 103:13-14). We, who name Jesus as Lord, need His help truly to repent. Our sins and our nation’s sins condemn us. Analysts say [...]
The Cause of Evil

The Origin of Evil, or Why I Believe in One Conspiracy Theory
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities…the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6:12) Probably the most neglected truth in the world today is the origin of sin and its proponents. The Bible is very clear that one very powerful being made the [...]
Putting Prayer Back In Our Churches
And He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’” (Matthew 21:13) Before we pressure legislators to put prayer back in schools, can we make prayer a priority in our own lives and begin to call for prayer meetings [...]

The problem in America is us. The report card for the Church [...]
