How Do I Become A Christian?

The most important thing to understand about the plan of salvation is that it is God’s plan and not the world’s plan.

The world’s plan of salvation would be about being a good and moral person. It believes if you can just be good enough, do enough good things, and try to be kind and loving to others then you will be saved. But none of these things are part of God’s plan of salvation.

It’s funny how the longer you avoid something, the harder it is to face.

At least that’s the case for me.

Can you relate?

You need a war room prayer strategy. 

You’ve likely seen or heard of the hit movie War Room staring Priscilla Shirer.  The film illustrates the impact prayer has on us and our situations.
