2023 GraceLife Conference (Session 3)

By Gregory Dickow

Summary

God gave us His Word to help us navigate our earthly lives. Life is a journey, and just like any journey, we’ll get lost without a roadmap. God’s grace figures prominently on our Christian walk; grace is a person—Jesus—and the Bible is the map to that person. However, if while traveling we feel condemned, it’s because we aren’t following the map. Jesus is extending unconditional acceptance and welcoming us with open arms, with no condemnation or judgment; seeing Him for who He really is and accepting His invitation gives us joy that the enemy can’t take away.

2023 GraceLife Conference (Session 9)

By Creflo Dollar

Summary

We’re living in the age of grace; despite that, however, our environment still has pervasive law- based teachings that lead to toxic masculinity. Men are subjected to immense pressure to conform to rules contradictory to who God says they are; the “man law” that the world pushes at us prevents us from accepting responsibility for our actions and creates fear of showing others our authentic selves. Thankfully, we have Jesus Christ as the perfect model of manhood to follow; connecting with God—our source and the One who made us—provides us with its true definition.

2023 GraceLife Conference (Session 1)

By Creflo Dollar

Summary

Without a proper understanding of God’s Word and how to apply it, we make the mistake of thinking that He contradicts Himself. One example is the difference between a believer’s stance in Christ and his state. Our stance before God as righteous and holy was settled when we accepted Jesus Christ; however, our state refers to the lifelong process of God continually working within us during our journey. We aren’t what we do; God has already declared us His children, regardless of our behavior. God chose us as His beloved even before the foundation of the earth, and our state can never change our stance; this is something to thank and praise Him for.

How to Be Flexible

By Creflo Dollar

Summary

Emotional maturity is a key component to a successful Christian life. Being emotionally mature requires flexibility, which allows us to adapt to situations as they arise. Jesus Christ is our perfect example; when God’s original plan for mankind was spoiled by sin, He adapted to the situation by sending His Son in human form to restore things to the way they were intended to be. Paul was another example; he demonstrated maturity and adaptability in the midst of adversity and painful circumstances. A willingness to humble ourselves in this manner allows God to use us to do great things.

Ten Signs of Emotional Maturity

By Creflo Dollar

Summary

As Christians, our well-being encompasses not just our bodies and our spirits, but also our feelings. Our emotions reside in our souls and have considerable control over the direction of our lives. If we don’t mature emotionally, we can end up in a bad place. Emotional maturity doesn’t mean being serious all the time; being willing to loosen up a bit allows us to enjoy life, which is God’s will for us.

How to Mature in Your Emotions

By Creflo Dollar

Summary

Life isn’t always easy; it’s to be expected that we’ll struggle with adversity from time to time. However, the believer always wins because our triumph is in the finished works of Jesus Christ. No matter what the situation looks like, we’ve already won because of what Jesus accomplished. He provides us with supernatural strength to overcome problems when they show up; therefore, whatever the devil throws at us will fail because we’re empowered to outlast the enemy. God’s love for us reassures us and gives us confidence that He’ll rescue and deliver us from whatever trouble we fall into.
