In this fourth message of our series on finding wholeness and holiness in our lives, Pastor Jeff explains how a simple biblical practice might be the only thing standing between us and our freedom.
Hear how taking an honest moral inventory might be just the thing to help you experience the freedom God created you to have. It’s a simple practice, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy or pleasant. In fact, this might be one of the hardest things you’ll ever do, but the benefits are worth it.

Our goal for this series is that we would be people who work the steps to achieve wholeness and holiness. One of the hardest lessons Jesus teaches in the sermon on the mount is the concept that meekness is desirable by God. With our society praising aggressiveness, achievement, upward mobility and such, it is terribly difficult to live meek lives if we even understand what that really means. In this message, Pastor Jeff makes the meekness concept straightforward, practical, and a little surprising.

In this first message of our new Spring series, Pastor Jeff discusses the first principle of Jesus’ most well known teaching to show that our healing and wholeness come only when we acknowledge our spiritual poverty before God. The message concludes with a powerful modern-day parable.

Dear Pastor Jeff,
I loved your post on fear of public speaking! I am a coach who specializes in stage fright and fear of public speaking. I have written a few posts to say that love is the answer to stage fright. You have identified the issue exactly as too much focus on whether the audience will like you rather than focusing on loving and caring for the audience.
I would have left a comment on your page but did not know how to login to your blog. If you are interested in one of my posts on the subject, you can find it at http://www.self-expression.com/speaking-freely/why-i-say-love-is-the-answer-to-stage-fright-fear-of-public-speaking/.
It is lovely to see a Biblical context for understanding the issue! I often think of Jesus as the one who was most inclusive, most open to love everyone, and now I can think of him as the world’s greatest teacher for transforming stage fright.
