Telling the Truth to Yourself | Discipleship Quote #86

Telling the Truth to Yourself | Discipleship Quote #86

“Am I getting nobler, better, more helpful, more humble, as I get older? Am I exhibiting the life that men take knowledge of as having been with Jesus, or am I getting more self-assertive, more deliberately determined to have my own way? It is a great thing to tell yourself the truth.” Oswald Chambers, The Place of Help.

The Destructive Strength Paradox

The Destructive Strength Paradox

The following is a repost by one of our RESOLUTE men, Dr. Scott Yorkovich. It is an excellent read in relation to the discussions on spiritual gifts. Enjoy! The original post can be found here.

I KNOW MANY VERY TALENTED PEOPLE. I’m sure you do, too. In fact, I believe that every person is gifted in some particular fashion according to God’s design for that person’s life. In this sense, no one is…

The Fellowship of the Unashamed

The Fellowship of the Unashamed

This is worthy to be memorized by every man including myself. Consider reading this, memorizing it, and then most importantly living it out. Imagine if we as men did this!

Brennan Manning’s “The Signature of Jesus”, Multnomah Books:

This note was found written in the office of a young pastor in Zimbabwe, Africa, following his martyrdom for his faith in Jesus Christ.  I quote his letter verbatim:

On Image Bearing | Discipleship Quote #44

On Image Bearing | Discipleship Quote #44

“There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations — these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with, work with, marry, snub, and exploit — immortal horrors or everlasting splendors.” Clive Staples Lewis.

Real Beauty Lost in Fifty Shades of Grey

Real Beauty Lost in Fifty Shades of Grey

In the early 2010s Unilever launched its “Dove Real Beauty” campaign. The effort included a video production entitled “Dove Real Beauty Sketches.” Forensic sketch artist Gil Zamora produced sketches of women whom he had never seen based solely upon their self-descriptions. He then drew sketches of the same women based upon descriptions provided by third parties. The self-descriptions were…

THE THREE METHODS OF FLIGHT:

Ornithologists say birds have three methods of flight.

FLAPPING is keeping their wings in constant motion, like a hummingbird, bluejay, or robin, to counteract gravity. Flapping keeps them in the air, but it’s work.

GLIDING some birds will build up enough speed to be able to coast downward. It is much more graceful than flapping, but unfortunately it doesn’t last…

On the Church | Discipleship Quote #42

On the Church | Discipleship Quote #42

“The church has lost her testimony. She has no longer anything to say to the world. Her once robust shout of assurance has faded away to an apologetic whisper. She who one time went out to declare now goes out to inquire. Her dogmatic declaration has become a respectful suggestion, a word of religious advice, given with the understanding that it is after all only an opinion and not meant to sound…

Strategies for Fighting Sexual Sin

Strategies for Fighting Sexual Sin

This was shared by John Piper at Northwestern College in 1995. Remarkable how applicable it still is.

1. Recognize that sexuality is a good gift from God.

Genesis 2:24-25 For this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and they shall become one flesh. And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed. Proverbs 5:18-20 Let your fountain be…
