Living it forward is living as those who, in the present, see and experience the future of God through his promises and through the resurrection life of Jesus.
We cannot merely add religious activity on top of our existing lifestyles and expect God to pour his life into us. God releases his blessing where it can flow freely.
Despite the current interest in spirituality, God's word remains a "hidden book". But if we know how to listen, we can still hear (and be transformed by) his voice in his word.
Those who live in the Kingdom of God will face storms, but they will do so with the presence of Jesus, who is the source of courage.
Jesus' birth is good news for all people, news that ends fear and brings real joy.
God invites us to participate in his story of building his kingdom and protecting his people through prayer.
The real authority of Jesus is demonstrated in his power over sin and all its effects.
We are called to prepare ourselves and those around us to receive something even better than forgiveness — the Holy Spirit.
God's plans for his people (and therefore for the world) are even woven into a decidedly secular world. We are called to play a part in His story that is unfolding.
