Now that we have your attention. No, the Bible does not work for a person who does not seek to understand it, apply it and then activate it through their change of life. For those who will do these actions though, it is life defining.

Scripture states that Israel is the “apple” of Yah’s eye. His gaze is always on His Land. What happens when we begin to look where He is looking, gaze where He is gazing? Daniel and Mike share their testimonies this week of walking in a love for His people and His land.

Is a person of conviction born or made? Well, it is obvious that every person of conviction was born, but what if they do little with that birth? How do we become a person of conviction? Do convictions change over time? Shouldn’t maturity bring forth stability. What if instead it brings isolation?

Have you ever walked into a room and the room went silent? You wondered if those in the room were talking about you? Did that make you a bit uncomfortable?

What is the purpose of Scripture? How about we liken it to the building of a house? What is the purpose of the designer or the builder?
