Let's be honest, there's one thing about this whole "relationship with God" thing that makes us really uncomfortable: We can't control Him. And that is terrifying sometimes.

God is alive. If you want a dead idol like your flesh desires, go for it. But if you want God, give yourself fully over, ask Him to mold you, and don't harden your heart against Him this day.

In fact, the good that He accomplishes by turning sin around is so good that it often overshadows the bad altogethe...
What if I told you that the first and perhaps one of the most complete evangelistic models laid out in the Bible by God for us, is actually found in what we call the "Old Testament"? Many forget that Moses was one of the first and greatest evangelists. God gave Moses the methods, and later Jesus ...
