Are you hungry for God? The world needs God! The world needs to
hear the Gospel message! The heart of Evangelism is having a hunger for
God and seeing the lost come into relationship with Him and share in
that same hunger.
We have been called to make disciples of the
nations, to share the Gospel. We are all called to evangelise. We all
need to be hungry for God...Listen to the Message

Truth Encounters (Part 2)
The power of our perceptions of who we are as an identity, how others
see us, and consequently how do we respond to life should not be
underestimated. What we hold as ‘our truth’ is often uncomfortably at
odds with ‘God’s truth’ about us. Our ‘truth’ is often merely a
perception that we have held, which has been programmed experientially
by life.
This programming can come through negative things said to us when we are vulnerable, or sometimes it comes through us having to draw our own conclusions about a situation because we weren’t encouraged or supported with positive counsel at the time. These are beliefs that we have taken to ‘heart.’

Truth Encounters (Part 1)
Many of the problems that we encounter as Christians emanate from
strongholds that have been established in us in our formative years.
These areas where we lack true freedom are usually thought-based. They generally revolve around us operating from our perceived beliefs about our identity, how others see us and also how we should respond to these inner activities.
The Bible makes a distinction between the thoughts of our hearts and the knowledge that we have compiled in our conscious mind. We understand then that what we know logically is truth to which we attribute mental assent, but it is not necessarily ‘truth that sets us free.’ Often we need truth in the inner parts for lasting freedom.
The apostle Paul struggled with this area of knowing in his mind what he wanted to do but at the same time having other desires within himself working against him...Listen to the Message.
