Meet Nick Vujicic

Posted by | July 2, 2012 | Industry News

How has God used the men I met to encourage and coach me? Why should anyone considering full-time ministry attend Re:Train?

Taking the familiar backdrop of the ALIEN universe he helped create in 1979 and the themes of creature confronting creator in Blade Runner, director Ridley Scott stylishly revisits these basic human questions in the gripping film Prometheus.  Are we made in the “image and likeness” our creator? Did our creator build into us the ability to seek and find him

Impatience Is Not a “Lesser” Sin I’m often astonished by my lack of patience. I’m also convicted by it, as Paul establishes patience as a fruit of the spirit (Galatians 5:22).  By implication, my lack of patience is a work of the flesh that often manifests in “enmity, strife . .
