Overcoming: One Of Us Is In Trouble
A New Teaching Article On Overcoming
During a season of my life, I became acquainted with the cost of some medications with sickness that we faced as a family. The sickness was cancer. Some of the pills were in the $1000’s of dollars!
This lead me to wonder: when you pay $1,400 for a pill, what are you really paying for? The pill itself probably only cost “cents” to manufacture.
You are paying for the research and development (R & D). The cost is actually determined by all the years of research and development required to find a substance safe yet effective enough to treat a specific illness.
After the research and development is completed, the final product is...

Overcoming: The Love Of Rightness
A New Teaching Article On Overcoming
We love to be right. We love to be right even when we’re wrong, even when it hurts ourselves and others. This problem sits deep in our hearts. It’s rooted in pride. Our problem is not that we want to be perfectionists, so therefore we don’t like being wrong. Our problem exists in our fallen condition: We like to be right because we don’t like to admit we’re wrong, which comes from a lack of humility...

Overcoming: Reaching for Wholeness
A New Teaching Article On Overcoming
In order to stop wearing a mask, I must be healthy and whole. Wholeness is “nothing missing and nothing broken.” Its when your soul has everything it needs in Christ, and there are no shattered pieces of your soul still living in the past. To reach that state of being, there are some things you MUST know. You must know your unconditional human worth and value; you must know God’s love; and you must...

Overcoming: Overcoming Anxiety
A New Teaching Article On Overcoming
Truth is life shaping in three ways. It shapes our mind, our emotions, and our will. All three form what the Bible calls our heart. We cannot skip one faculty of ourselves and jump to the next. In other words, our mind and emotions aren’t separated from each other, just as our will and mind, emotions and will can be separated from each other.
When we “feel” (emotion) something it’s because our mind has...

Overcoming: The Right To Freedom
A New Teaching Article On Overcoming
One of the fundamental rights of the believer in Jesus Christ is freedom. Sin has distorted every aspect of the human experience from the beginning of time. Sin is the reason for wars, poverty, slavery, and is the answer to the philosophical problem of evil in the world. Sin is when people exercise the power of their free will to do something God doesn’t want them to do. But Jesus has given us power!
