Living an others-focused life means being available and willing to help those in need, even during personal challenges. Drawing from David's example when he helped Keilah while being hunted by Saul, we learn the importance of consulting God before helping others and using our specific gifts wisely. This lifestyle brings two major rewards: attracting like-minded people to join your cause and witnessing God's miraculous interventions. While this path may involve criticism and sacrifice, the long-term rewards of faithful service always outweigh temporary costs.  Read More

Kingdom momentum represents divine forward movement that advances God's purposes beyond personal success. It begins, flows through, and returns to God's house, often facing questioning and criticism from others who don't understand. This momentum requires pure motives that lead our methods, involving both internal necessity and external shaping. When we align with this pattern and become conduits rather than hoarders of blessing, we experience the rich and satisfying life in all areas.  Read More

By shifting our focus from wrestling with problems to wrestling with God, we can find genuine rest and experience transformative growth.  Read More
