CHRISTIANITY REDISCOVERED!

Welcome to our Christianity Rediscovered Blog Site. We are diving deeply into Christianity’s foundations and their implications for our lives.

Christianity is unique because it is about a living relationship with Christ. This relationship is built on grace. We know that grace comes only through the sacrifice of the only Son of God. It is more than enough for God.

We have settled for a weak, cheap, and watered-down form of Christianity. In some ways, it is not authentic Christianity at all but a mere form of it.  This is not the natural face of the Church. Authentic Christianity lives in the power of God Almighty.

God has ordained that all believers who want to find His greatness in their lives will have it. We wrongly believe we need naturally gifted leaders who are highly disciplined and personally strong to accomplish God’s work on earth. I’m sorry, but that’s not God’s plan for His Church.

God wants to demonstrate His power and the power of the gospel in the lives of ordinary and broken, weak people who naturally lack these gifts. In this way, He demonstrates to the world that He alone is God. This glorifies the Father.

His requirements are for us to receive these things by grace alone, by believing in Christ’s sacrifice. His plan is for us to live daily in fellowship with Him, to be constantly filled with His love and power. He has already paid for all He wishes to give us with His blood.

Our approach to critical questions in the lives of Christians is very different than that commonly taken. But it is deeply grounded in Christ and Scripture. The implications are far-reaching and have a profound and revolutionary impact on marriage, family, career, recovery, mental health, politics, church life, and virtually every area of our lives.

Join me in exploring these issues.

Are You Stuck? Sick and Tired of Trying to “Just Let Go”?

"I just have to let go." I so often hear Christians use this phrase. It is the specification of what they think is holding them back in their Christian life. It seems, however, that those who voice this idea never move on from that place. Is it a helpful mindset, or is it possible that it represents a belief system that is keeping them stuck?

Christianity – A Renewed Understanding

We are speaking about authentic Christianity. Not the Christianity as commonly conceived, merely of principles for living or even as a source of moral direction. Instead, we are talking about a Christianity that is alive with the very life that is in Christ.

Cross-Based Living – A Better Way

“For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” (1 Cor. 1:18) We would be wise to consider deeply the meaning of this statement. It is the central and most important message of the New Testament.
