Our Letter of Recommendation By Dr. Bob Snyder
What Letter of Recommendation Does Your Life Communicate? Letters of recommendation are powerful tools in advocacy. They serve as a witness to who I am and the work I have done. If written by the right person, a letter of recommendation can be the difference between my acceptance and my rejection. Are we beginning to…
Doing Good Works By W. Scott Brown
Doing The Good Works God Has Prepared for Us “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” (Eph. 2:10) Cultural conflict grabs headlines, but there is another story happening today.

As ministry leaders, we sense wonder when our mission is fleshed out before our eyes. This may…
Physical and Spiritual Fitness By Dr. Bob Snyder
Physical and Spiritual Fitness Strengthens You I enjoy the disciplines of fitness and physical exercise because it fits my “to-do list” mentality. Yet, when I apply this same mentality to my spiritual life I often fall short. For instance, reading through my Bible in a year does not necessarily produce growth. Yielding to the work…

GPS: God’s Protection System By Jay Cordova
GPS: God’s Protection System for YOU Like many, I find it difficult to drive without a GPS, but despite having this tool, I still find myself distracted by my surroundings, my four kids in backseat, or incoming calls (hands-free of course). While I have the roadmap provided for me, I still tend to lose track…

Serve Down: Learning to Lead Like Jesus I am convinced that Jesus wants followers who intuitively understand that to “serve up” in God’s kingdom means that we actually “serve down.” Take for example how Jesus differentiates his loyal followers from the phonies (described as sheep and goats). He doesn’t look at who prays the longest,…
