.: FREEdom:: trust…

In his commentary on the Book of Matthew, William Barclay wrote… If God gave us life, we can trust Him for the things which are necessary to support life… Worry is essentially distrust of God. May you begin trusting God… May you find freedom in His life-support… May you know that you are more valuable than birds [...]

I’m no scientist… but I understand that when I fill a glass with liquid and then drop something into that glass (such as:: ice or my iPhone) then there will be liquid that spills over the edge of the glass and onto the floor. I am overjoyed to announce to you, that this scientific principle is [...]

.: FREEdom:: anxiety…

As we close this FREEdom message series at Remedy Church tomorrow, I am praying (in advance) that our church will continue the process of asking… searching… and knocking as we learn what it means to be a collection of jacked-up and broken people chasing after the One True God who can heal us, restore us, [...]

Our current message series at Remedy Church has been phenomenal. This morning, I shared a fable called “The Bridge”. Written by Rabbi Edwin Friedman, and featured in his book entitled Friedman’s Fables, this story has many applications to finding freedom by understanding and setting boundaries in our lives.

Yesterday, we spent some time at Remedy Church in our FREEdom message series discussing God’s plan to redeem our religious rule-keeping and restore us to Himself through His son, Jesus of Nazareth. Obedience for obedience’s sake leads to many things… but it will not lead to love. When Jesus taught His followers to pray, He [...]

.: FREEdom:: The Echo…

I read this quote to Remedy Church this morning in continuation of our FREEdom message series. I love the simple (and costly) freedom that can be found by those who entrust their baggage, hope, and “religion” to Jesus of Nazareth. Christianity is all about the belief that the living God, in fulfillment of his promises [...]

.: Ethan’s Story…

Our story is the most important thing about us. When we share our story with others… we are able to find a little more FREEdom to become who we were created to be. When we listen to the stories of others… we realize that we are not alone… that we have more in common than we [...]

In his commentary on John 8:31-47, Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe wrote the following:: The worst bondage is the kind that the prisoner does not recognize. He thinks he is free, yet he is really a slave. This causes me to consider the areas in which I am quite possibly a “prisoner” and a “slave” without [...]

This morning, I awakened with a heavy burden on my heart and mind for each of our families at Remedy Church. I am praying for genuine forgiveness, harmony and peace (eirene), and renewed love among husbands and wives. I am praying that EVERY person at Remedy Church will remain true to their “first love” and begin [...]
