Be Different
by Curt Dodd on February 26th, 2025
Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because whoever suffers in the body is done with sin. As a result, they do not live the rest of their earthly lives for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God. (1 Peter 4:1-2) As believers, our lives should be different from everyone else who is not a believer. Your life, because Jesus has saved... Read More

The Power Of Practicing Prayer
by Curt Dodd on November 11th, 2024
Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name. – Hebrews 13:15We love to talk about prayer, but do we actually spend time doing it? Prayer is powerful, and it's where the real impact happens. When we take time to consistently pray, we invite God to move in our lives and in the lives of those around us.Big things happe...

Praying with Power
by Curt Dodd on January 29th, 2024

by Curt Dodd on November 6th, 2023
My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry. – James 1:19If you have the mentality that you can always learn, you are in a healthy place. You can learn things from anyone, whether they are older or younger. We all need to have a mentality that says, “I haven't arrived yet, and I can always learn something new because I... Read More

Your Heavenly Father
by Curt Dodd on June 18th, 2023
Sing to God, sing in praise of his name, extol him who rides on the clouds; rejoice before him – his name is the Lord. A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets the lonely in families, he leads out the prisoners with singing, but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land. (Psalm 68:4-6) Father’s Day can be a tough day for many of us. If you didn’t gr... Read More

Show up for Others
by Curt Dodd on February 7th, 2023
A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. (Proverbs 18:24) No one on the face of this earth has it all together in this aspect of loving. Do you know why? Because we tend to be very self-focused, self-centered, and self-absorbed. Most of the time, we are concerned about how other people are viewing us. We are wondering what other people thin... Read More
