Understanding Idolatry Idolatry, in its essence, is the act of worshiping or prioritizing anything other than God. It extends beyond […]
s Christians, our ultimate example is found in Jesus Christ, who embodied humility, servanthood, and sacrificial love. Narcissistic behavior stands in stark contrast to the teachings of Christ. Jesus taught his followers to prioritize compassion, empathy, and service to others above personal ambition or self-interest. He taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves and to prioritize the needs of others above our own desires. True transformation from narcissism to humility begins with surrendering our lives to Christ and allowing His Spirit to work in us.
When Seeking Knowledge Leads To Self Deception One significant issue plaguing many believers today is a misunderstanding of what it means to follow Christ.

It is in this vulnerable state […]
Recognizing The Dangers of The Occult When you hear the term occult, what comes to mind? My initial thoughts when I hear the word occult are a group of people standing in a circle, draped with black cloaks, chanting some ritualistic mantra, surrounded by candles somewhere in an underground cave dwelling. Though there are absolutely groups that do those things, […]

If I ask you to envision in your mind what an angel looks like, you would most likely think of glowing heavenly beings whose appearance is in human form. Much like many of the artistic renderings portrayed in paintings throughout time. Kind and attractive, with white wings, topped with halos and carrying a harp in one hand.
