When we meet Jesus for the first time, it is the most exhilarating feeling you can imagine. A rush of love over takes you and an overall amazement that God is who He says He is overwhelms your mind. Then something happens. If we aren't careful we can become so familiar with God's ways that we lose our amazement for who He is. This message is a call for Christians to return to their first love and fall in love with Jesus all over again. There is no mastering God. The wisest theologian is no close to knowing God in totality than an infant child, yet often the longer we are in relationship with Jesus the less fervent we become. Let's turn our hearts back to the Him so He can set us on fire again!

Have you ever wondered why people stay in an abusive church when they know things aren't as they should be? Cassandra and myself tackle some of the main mindsets that get build over time that keep people coming back for more. They're often taught to distrust their own instincts, they'll never experience the power of God again, or sometimes people keep going because they love the people they fellowship with. We tackle all of these and more from our own experiences. Be sure to subscribe!
