Staying Clean
It's easier to get clean than it is to stay clean.
That's not only true physically; it's also true morally. Not long after you have been cleansed by the blood of Christ, you find yourself repeating the same mistakes that sent Him to the cross, and feeling as distant from Him as you did before you were forgiven.
How many showers of grace do you get before God says, "Enough!" And how do you break the cycle so that you don't have to keep asking for forgiveness for the same old sins?

Life Is War
The screen on which you are reading these words looks simple enough, but you know that what you are seeing on this flat facade is the visible result of a complex invisible process going on right now inside your laptop/iPad/smart phone. There is more going on than meets the eye, isn't there?
The same is true in your spiritual life. The choices you make, the temptations you face, the trials you endure ... every twist and turn in your life is affected by what is going on in a realm that is invisible to you. And the more you understand what's happening there, the better you will navigate the challenges of living here.
Check out this message as Greg lifts the cover off the physical world to get a rarely seen glimpse of the spiritual world.

Beautifully Imperfect
On Mother's Day, we love to tell our moms how beautiful they are, inside and out--but their imperfections still haunt them. How can a mom break free from performance anxiety? How can she look at herself in the mirror without fixating on her flaws?
Those aren't just mom issues, are they? All of us are in need of self-image detoxification. That's what Greg is talking about in this message, as we see ourselves from a whole different perspective ... God's.
