Do Unto Others
You can't take off your Christianity like a hat when you leave church. When you walk into any room, Christ walks in with you. But here's the real question: Are you trying to manage where God is present in your life, or are you letting Him transform every area? Your treatment of people is the visible proof of your invisible devotion.
The Gospel of Mark 1:21-1:39 - Healing the sick in body, mind, and spirit
The next stage of Jesus’ ministry is filled with healings and exorcisms. He is seeking to bring the kingdom of God to the people in a very real way. He is not just preaching and teaching, He is meeting very real needs in people.
The Enemy in Your House
Sometimes the enemy isn't operating in your city - sometimes the enemy is operating in your circle. Jesus said He came to bring a sword, not peace. What does this mean for your family relationships when you choose to follow Him wholeheartedly? The gospel doesn't divide because it's broken - it divides because it exposes what's broken in us.

To the Jew First
Are you trying to change the world without letting God change you first? Jesus gave His disciples power to heal and free others, but that power had to transform their own lives first. The kingdom of heaven starts at home before it can reach the world. How is God's kingdom power showing up in your daily life?Are you feeling spiritually exhausted and burdened? Jesus saw crowds as 'harassed and helpless like sheep without a shepherd'—and His solution wasn't more religion but transformation. If your faith leaves you harassed and helpless, it's not faith—it's a fraud. What fields has God placed in YOUR life to harvest? The kingdom doesn't just rescue sheep; it transforms them into shepherds.
