WALK CLOSER WITH GOD
LIVE BETTER IN LIFE
_______________________
Every moment of every day, something in your soul is being fed and something is being starved. As a result, in the course of living everyday life in our modern culture, the soul of the Christian is power-fed the things of the world while the things of the Spirit are starved.

WE CAN BE LIVING PROOF OF THE FACT THAT GOD’S WILL IS GOOD AND PERFECT…
BUT ONLY IF WE ARE TRANSFORMED….
AND WE WILL ONLY BE TRANSFORMED AS OUR MIND IS RENEWED.

Because of the presence and power of media in modern culture, it may be more difficult to live the Christian life today than ever before. Yet God is revealing truth we’ve never known before to help us fight spiritual battles we’ve never fought before.
The brain tends to believe what it hears first and/or most often. Hearing relentless deception from culture softens, and can even destroy, our grasp of truth.
The constant barrage of deception from media can be offset with carefully crafted mental renewal strategies. We must repeat truth until it changes us.
Old spiritual disciplines are not adequate for today. They are like bringing a squirt gun to a forest fire. We must expose the brain to more than a Bible passage and devotional reading each morning and church on Sunday.
Younger generations are abandoning the faith in record numbers. We need disruptive innovation to offer hope for them, their children and grandchildren.

I underperformed spiritually for years because the standard operating procedures for Christians simply didn’t work for me. I did everything everyone told me to do, and I still didn’t thrive as I wanted to and I thought I should.
After 12 years of higher education, teaching in college and seminary, pastoring, and authoring over 25 books, I’ve learned a scriptural mental-renewal system that has given me more spiritual growth in the last ten years than I had in the previous thirty. Integrating biblical principles with neurological research, this renewal system has leapfrogged me years down the road in my spiritual journey.
Through carefully crafted renewal strategies, believers can withstand the power of modern culture and become
stronger Christians now than if they lived in easier times.
GARY SMALLEY’S STORY
In Gary Smalley’s book, Change Your Heart, Change Your Life, he described being under such extreme anxiety and stress that he had a heart attack. He knew all the right Scriptures but they didn’t help. So, he zeroed in on just a few passages and reviewed them several times a day. After about a month His anxiety was gone. I did the same, and after about a month, my anxiety was gone.
MY STORY
Over ten years ago, during a time of personal crisis, I created a mental renewal system to reinforce truth until it changed me. At first, I saw a lessening of “negatives,” like anxiety and anger. But then over time, I began to see the addition of “positives,” such as keener perception, greater awareness, deeper conviction and heightened creativity. I’m not the same person I used to be.
CRAIG GROESCHEL’S STORY
In his book, Winning the War in Your Mind, Craig Groeschel outlines a system for identifying the lies we believe, and a neurologically informed strategy for breaking free of them. Christian leaders are “catching on” to using neuroplasty (the brain can change) to craft disruptive innovation to meet the needs of the day. It’s an idea whose time has come.
The power of modern culture is being validated by every new poll coming out from Barna or LifeWay verifying the widespread disintegration of the Christian faith in the face of the devastating cultural onslaught. Don’t be a casualty! And help those you influence to not be casualties.
If we want hope, not only for ourselves, but for those we influence (family members, church members, friends, etc.), we must look for more effective ways to release the power of the Word in our lives.
It is inexpensive, quick, and simple!
