As wonderful and sophisticated as the heart is, it was never made to be just a heart, but a part of a body. It has no value to the body outside the body. And the heart itself can't thrive outside the body. As incredible and wonderful as you are, Christian, you were never made just to be an individual Christian, but a part of body. As every organ and every cell is God-created to be an active member of the human body, so every true Christian is God-created to be an active member of a local body of Christ.

A Message from our Provider:

“God grades on the cross, not the curve.”

Satisfaction will never come if we claim to have God, but then quench our souls on the short-lived, inadequate pleasures of this world. These “thirst quenchers” are really spiritual poison and are condemned by our Lord. Through the Prophet Jeremiah, God said, “For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, to hew for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns that can hold no water” (Jer. 2:13). Our only hope comes if we can “thirst” and “yearn” to drink from the living God. As Jesus said, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink” (Jn. 7:37).
