Fighting for freedom in a world of chains; A fresh vision for authentic Biblical manhood

“Reeds into Rocks”

I heard it on the radio one morning. I wish I could have gotten the name of the host giving the sermon / encouragement. He said, “Jesus can turn a reed into a rock.” I don’t think the point was that Jesus called Peter a rock, etc., or any of the implications that come with

The Call to Resurrection Living

The call to relating to the Savior instead of “relating to sin”

The Pathway to Leading Underdogs and Outcasts – a Jesus-Centered Tribe of the hopeful

I’m re-reading through a book I’ve read a couple years back. I believe it bears a rhema (right now) message for the Church.

Our Society Reduces Men to the Tin man or Scarecrow; Jesus remakes men with Chests
