Whose plan are you following?

The issue is the disconnect between knowing what this verse is saying and actually doing it. We plot out every detail of our lives-what our vocation will be, where we...

Why are we here? Were we born to strive just to make sure the bills are paid, take the occasional vacation, and then retire for a few short years to enjoy life at the end? Is this what it means to truly live?
If what we do in life is motivated solely by our survival, then we only have a job. But, if what we do is directly tied to how we best love and serve others, then we are moving in our life's true purpose. No one is born to merely have a job....

Has the church worldwide lost sight of its main business-to make disciples? Have we forgotten our only commission from Christ?
Jesus gave His followers only one assignment: "Go and make disciples of all the nations." Generally speaking, the church across the world gives lip service to that great commission, but our major investments of time, talent, and treasure are in the maintenance of membership, not in disciple making. As a result, our spiritual...
