Everyone is in a panic. We operate more on adrenaline than anointing! We have pressures, commitments, deadlines, obligations, possessions and relationships that require continual maintenance. It reminds me of my first time snow skiing (a big deal for a Louisiana resident).

How will you overcome the fears that limit you?

I’ve been concerned lately about the Biblical illiteracy in our generation.  A good friend of mine asked me, “What is an epistle?”  I told him, of course, it is the wife of an apostle! I’ve read the Bible through many times and taught each of the 66 books.

Here are my top ten suggestions for becoming a better Bible student:

Just thinking about it should radically change our lives.

I PROMISE YOU that if you meditate on these 94 verses and speak them out loud, your mind and identity will be totally transformed in 2021!

In today’s world, reports are alarming. Dangerous circumstances are described in a way to make us feel unsteady. We can’t see a clear path to WIN.
