New Author - Aida Calder joins us

Wed, 21 Jul 2010 16:44:51 +1000

Aida Calder has been a follower of Christ for over 30 years and her ministry experiences have been many and varied. Because of her love for youth and her desire to see them become all that God created them to be, she worked with teens for a number of years as a volunteer youth leader and she is currently employed in a public high school where she works with students who are at risk to drop out without graduating.
In addition to being an encourager of people, Aida is gifted as an administrator and was the founder of a successful women’s ministry, The Deborah Generation, and has served as secretary and vice-president of her local chapter of Women’s Aglow. As a writer and teacher, she has published numerous articles explaining God’s love and grace. Having a desire to make this information available on a more widespread basis, she developed a blog, Forgetting the Former Things. She is considered by some to be an expert in spiritual abuse recovery and has published a number of articles on the subject of spiritual abuse. These can be found on her second blog, Setting the Captives Free.
Aida’s desire to see the church experience the fullness of life in Christ has led her to become actively involved in The Free Believers Network where she serves on the board as well as moderating the website forum.
Aida lives in South Carolina with her husband, Charlie. They are the parents of two children, Laura and Matthew, and they have six grandchildren.

The Lords Heart for Healing - Marc Lawson

Fri, 23 Apr 2010 10:33:09 +1000

Unless we know and believe the Lord’s heart for us in the realms of healing, we will never beable to truly receive all the Lord desires for us. It’s not good enough for us to only know about what the Lord did in the Bible and for others, but we must each get a revelation of His astounding love, His great mercy and His overwhelming passion to see each of His children whole and well. Some excellent examples of this are found in the scripture...

Marc and his wife Linda have spent 28 years in full-time ministry. As leader of new church prototype Church at North Gate, their passion is to do “church as unusual”. By training people to pursue God’s power without compromise, they release believers to works of ministry (Matthew 10:7-9; John 14:12) such as miracles and healings. Marc’s desire is to transform the American church culture as saints begin to realize God is eager to display His power and His love through them at home, work, school and marketplace!

'King of Heroin' Arrested

Thu, 22 Apr 2010 13:12:22 +1000

Jose Antonio Medina arrested after prayer
On March 23 Christians in Mexico came together for a prayer initiative for their nation. "It was a passionate and authoritative time of praying for the Lord's deliverance of the land from the grip of the narco-traffickers who are in reality waging war against the whole society to carry on their illicit trade," writes John Robb of the International Prayer Council. "The following day, March 24, the news reached us that the 'King of Heroin', Jose Antonio Medina, was arrested in the western state of Michoacan. He was arrested along with some Colombians who were the link between the Colombian and Mexican drug cartels. Praise God! The Lord is answering and will bring an end to these criminal rings as we continue to pray."

LIving In The Light - The Fruit of Holiness by Dean Taylor

Thu, 22 Apr 2010 11:27:02 +1000

A simple way to understand holiness is to think of it as Christ-likeness. Christ likeness is being set apart to the ways of Jesus, the ways of the Kingdom. The 1st century Rabbi and disciple system of life for Jewish young men is very revealing in the way of setting your life apart because this was the sole desire of a young Jewish boy, to live a life set apart to his Rabbi. It paints for us a good picture of someone who desires to live set apart to God...
