Send us a text I have discovered that a willing heart does a person a whole lot more good than a brain filled with theology. Being willing to serve God with a heart that is grateful for Him and His grace and mercy allows us to experience more of Him and His goodness.

Send us a text As we begin season 5 at the Junkyard Outreach, I want to say thanks to all those listening and pray that God is impacting your life more each day. Thank you for listening! Todd
Send us a text We as believers are living a life where God is using us to demonstrate His love, grace forgiveness, etc. And our role in this life is to obey Him and demonstrate to this world what the life of the believer looks like. The things we do are referred to, in Scripture, as "fruit." As a tree naturally bears fruit, because it's designed to, so too we also produce things in our lives consistent with godliness if we are truly abiding in Jesus.
Send us a text Reading the Scriptures brings us to places where we see God's commands for His people. In the Old Testament Law of Moses, we find many "you shall" commands. And this may come across as oppressive to someone who is not familiar with the love of God but upon closer examination we, as believers, can find something special in the "you shalls" in Scripture.
Send us a text Many promises in Scripture may seem to lofty to grasp but when we are still before God and obedient to His calling, these promises will begin to creep in. We need to put in the work by being obedient to His calling and the prompting of the Holy Spirit, then we can see these promises more clearly.
Send us a text In the Bible the name Korah is synonymous with rebellion. Korah was a cousin to Moses and Aaron and tried to overthrow them and assume the leadership of Moses and the newly created priesthood established by God for Aaron and his descendants only. It's a tragic story that reflects many of our own rebellious desires against God and a careful study of the story reveals how human ambition and pride can easily destroy a family, community, church etc. On the other h...

Send us a text Aaron was made to be the first priest in the nation Israel. He had four sons who were also commissioned by God to be priests as was the linage of Aaron forever.

However, staying faithful to our King gives us the assurance He is with us in the midst of these hard lessons.

Send us a text Daniel sees, in a vision, the second and third world empire battling it out. He also sees a historical villain named Antiochus IV, who persecuted the Jews and defiled their temple.

Send us a text La palabra "fruto" en el Nuevo Testamento a menudo se aplica a las acciones de una persona. Así como un árbol produce naturalmente frutos, así también una persona produce naturalmente cosas en su propia vida. Al observar la obra del Espíritu Santo en nuestras vidas, las cosas producidas por la presencia de Dios en nosotros deben ser evidentes para todos los que nos rodean. A esto se le conoce como el "fruto del Espíritu".

Send us a text Believers can sometimes find themselves overwhelmed in their relationship with Jesus when things get complicated and the walls feel like they are closing in. It can feel so complicated that we question if it's even worth it. But the simplicity in Jesus is not overwhelming, nor is it a heavy burden. What makes it overwhelming is our natural tendency to pile on a lot of stuff thinking it's what God wants but in reality it's not from God at all. Getting bac...

Send us a textDaniel interprets a dream of the King of Babylon when none of the wise men could.
Send us a text In 1973, in Stockholm Sweden, bank robbers took several hostages in their failed robbery. What emerged from that incident was an understanding that people can become sympathetic to those doing evil and actually support them in their evil. This is referred to as Stockholm Syndrome. In the spiritual world, this is nothing new as the Devil has convinced many to play ball in his court and go along with his rebellion resulting in many deceived people paying a horri...
Send us a text The book of Daniel is an interesting book in the Scriptures. It's argued over, rejected, accepted and can easily become a difficult book to really grasp. I am in the camp where I take the book of Daniel serious and consider it to be divine scripture as compared to others who believe the book is not divinely inspired. Jesus has no issue with the book and quotes from it. Also the nature of the book is apocalyptic meaning it speaks of things that pertain to...
Send us a text In the Scriptures we clearly see two realities. The physical and the spiritual. The physical world and all the things we can observe compared to the spiritual world which is invisible. In our natural mind we process what we know based on what we have experienced in our learning from birth until the present. It's how we survive. But the spirit, or the spiritual mind, is one that is governed by the Holy Spirit and is not dependent upon our own unders...

Send us a text Jesús dijo que Él vino a darnos vida en abundancia. Pero cuando miramos la palabra vida cuidadosamente, no significa necesariamente una vida materialista, sino una vida espiritual.

Send us a text Many women cringe when they read God's word and discover they need to submit to their husbands. But a look into the topic reveals a few things. First a women who wants to please God will obey Him regardless of their feelings. Second, when God commands us to to something it's for the best in His eyes and this should be enough to convince us it's the best for us. But when we, as believers draw closer to Jesus, we realize something very critical in our rela...

Send us a textOne of our responsibilities in our relationship with Jesus is that we are always striving to live with a renewed mind that happens when we are truly born from above or born again in Jesus.

In his journey God presents Himself to Jacob and tells him that He will be with Jacob and bring him back to the land of his father. This is the be...
Send us a textEvery believer should become familiar with Romans 14. It's here that we are taught to be respectful toward other believers who don't share some of our convictions.

Send us a text Preparar nuestras mentes para la acción con anticipación ayuda a mantener nuestro carácter y testimonio donde debe estar.

Send us a text In the time of Jeremiah the prophet, there was another prophet who was living in Babylon after the Babylonians took Jews captive from Israel a few years earlier. His name was Ezekiel.

Send us a textIn Roman's Ch. 12 Paul begins with a call to be renewed in the power of the Holy Spirit.
