A year ago today I almost had a nervous breakdown.... I was supposed to be on a plane to go to Hawaii for a family vacation. I ended up hospitalized for a week and on over 8 months of bedrest for Addison's disease, multiple spinal cord tumors, over 9 herniated discs and more complications. I sent an email to Jerry Niswander, a man with an incredible reputation for leadership. He was the heart and mind behind Jesus Culture the global movement that has over 3 million people connected to them on social media alone. I knew that he was in a new season of his life, and I was in a desperate place. This is what my email said. " Jerry, I can't do this anymore. I'm sick, I'm weary and what God gave [...]

The prefix RE comes from the Latin meaning "again and again" to indicate repetition, backward motion. Regenerate means to GENERATE again and again. To restore is to store repeatedly. To RENEW, you will now see, means to bring to new, again and again. The Hebraic culture and calendar was never set in motion with this habit of 'out with the old, bringing in the new.' Nothing was ever wasted. God didn't do away with years gone by in order to create what He was dreaming of for the future. He built upon, [...]

Should Christians Have A Christmas Tree? What Did Jeremiah Actually Mean By That Warning In The Bible?  This is the time of year when some people go off on tangents about what Christians should do and not do when celebrating this holiday we call Christmas.
