There's a life only accessible by trusting in God, but what does that look like?

Romans 12:2 NLT “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” The call to stand out and join the revolution is given to every follower of Christ. Too often we are so easily seduced and ignore the call to be more. By ignoring the call to join the revolution for Jesus we cover up our light for Him just as if we

A special word from someone in the TFL community: God is the person I want to be like. God is the feelings and thoughts I want to have. He is the light when I'm in the dark.

Being met with opposition and mixed results brought confusion to my heart and overall attitude. I brought the tension I was dealing with to God and asked Him

Why do we face hardships? Why do we face trials? Why, if Jesus is so good, is life so hard sometimes even if we are doing all that we can to follow Jesus? Let's dig into James 1 and see what we can find. James 1:2-4 2 Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. 3 For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. 4 So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you wi

There are some things I absolutely love in life, one of them is jamming out to some well-crafted beats and powerful bass drops that shake me to the core, I absolutely love Hip Hop music. Through high school and middle school, even elementary school, I enjoyed listening to artists like Lil Wayne, 50 Cent, Akon, Young Jeezy, and especially Eminem. These men were very influential in my younger years of life. As an aspiring martial artist and MMA fighter, Hip Hop shaped a lot of
