Do some Spirit-led lab work in your own heart

Posted on February 17, 2020 by Steve Simms

The human heart has a secret laboratory for continually experiencing Jesus, that few people seem to discover. To me Christianity is daily doing Spirit-led experiments in God’s laboratory of life, not just weekly classroom-style lectures. Daily life is the research … Continue reading →

Who to follow?

Posted on February 14, 2020 by Steve Simms

People who intentionally deny and/or distort the truth to manipulate others shouldn’t be trusted. If you want to follow someone who won’t lie to you or let you down, follow the living, resurrected Jesus Christ! When Christians (or churches) support … Continue reading →

Does “the church” even exist?

Posted on February 14, 2020 by Steve Simms

Many Christians praise Luther and Calvin leaving Catholicism, but don’t like people suggesting reforming (or leaving) church today. In reality, “the church” doesn’t exist.

Looking beyond institutional eyes

Posted on January 29, 2020 by Steve Simms

Institutional eyes only seem to recognize Christianity when its institutionalized, but Jesus is working 24/7/365. Although religion is highly institutionalized, the living Jesus Christ isn’t.

The risen Jesus calls us beyond crusty creeds to Spirit-led deeds

Posted on January 22, 2020 by Steve Simms

“Selfianity” promotes self-focus

Posted on January 10, 2020 by Steve Simms

Christianity calls us to self-denial. Selfianity promotes self-focus. Some people want Christianity when it’s convenient and an escape clause when it’s not. When Christ is only a theory, we’ll grow spiritually weary. When He’s living within, we’ll overcome our sin. … Continue reading →

Christianity needs more “heartials” and fewer facials

Posted on January 7, 2020 by Steve Simms
