When Martin Luther nailed his thesis to the church doors, he began a counter-cultural revolution in the hearts and mind of scholars and laymen alike. God calls us to withdraw from the marinade and join the revolution.

The John the Baptist Generation
The gun has gone off! The race does not stop until the finish line. What is the race? How do we cross that finish line? In order to renew our apocalyptic edge and prophetic focus we must answer God's call and run the race.

Mea Culpa
Already saved? John the Baptist calls even the saved to repent, even if it's only for the sin of unrepentance. What does it mean to repent? Only by doing so can we grow closer to God.

Pioneer Operating Budget

Growing up I was taught at an early age to show respect and honor to God and country.

For example, I was taught to never put anything on top of the Bible, because the Word of God is holy; and to never to let the flag of our country touch the ground, because people have sacrificed their lives for the liberty of our country. When it comes to tithes and offerings, we should always honor God by giving to Him the first part of our income and blessings; not what’s left after we have paid the bills.

Jesus addressed the concerns of people today, “For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you” (Matthew 6:32-33, NKJV).

The promise is that if we put Christ and His work first in everything, He will take care of all our needs. No need to be concerned about our food, clothing, or anything. God will surely come through and not only “add these things” but abundantly open the windows of heaven for us.
