“Speaking the Truth in Love”

The more that Christ-followers grow and learn to make Christ the present and literal Head and Leader of His body (not just a distant figurehead) the more Jesus promotes and empowers each member to build one another up in love. (Ephesians 4;15-16) Then they will no longer be “blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.” (Ephesians 4:14)

Raging roaring river rapids remind me to release God’s Spirit to freely flow deep within and through me. (John 7:38-39) Out-of-the-traditional-church-box, Spirit-led Christianity is wonderful! I wish more people would open wide their heart to it!

Waiting on the Lord

God has arrived.
Jesus came as
Immanuel —
“God is with us.”
When crucified
Jesus arose
To live within
His followers
And be their Lord.
If Christ’s in you
Actively wait
And rely on
Him to prompt you
Throughout each day.
Train yourself to
Depend on Christ’s
Presence in you,
Not on your own
Ability.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
