Good morning!
One of the most beautiful gifts that was made available at the Kairos weekends inside of Limestone and St.Clair prisons to both the men incarcerated inside the prisons and the outside men on the teams going into the prison was the gift of repentance. Listening to men speak and openly repent of their sins is powerful spiritual warfare that frees men from bo***ge and rattles the gates of hell.

Much love!

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Be high and lifted up -- here in my heart and every moment of my day (John 12:32). ... Sometimes I find myself thinking of the regrets of my past. And probably “regret” is just a manifestation of past sins, past failures, past mistakes. But You’re always so kind

Good Monday Morning!
I returned home last night from serving the past 4 days inside Limestone Prison with my Kairos team sharing our lives and the love and grace of Jesus Christ. This morning I am reflecting on the power of love.

Much love!

Lord God, I thank you for your love, grace and mercy. “yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we live, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we live.” (1 Corinthians 8:6) I woke up reflecting on my experiences fro

Good morning!
I have to be at Limestone Prison at 1:00pm today as I will be going inside the prison today through Sunday with the a group of men as part of the Kairos prison Ministry team. I had to leave the house at 6:00am this morning to get some things done. I returned home and took a minute to pray and prepare myself for the next 4 days. Mark chapter 8, where We are reading now, is a good place for that to remind me that my ministry and life is not about me.

I am not allowed to take any electronic devises: lap tops, cell phones, smart watches into the prison the next 4 days. So I will not have the ability to receive any messages/send any messages.

Please pray fur us!
Much love!
Gary

Then Jesus called the crowd, along with his disciples, and said to them, “If anyone wants to become my follower, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me…. For what benefit is it for a person to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his life? (Mark 8:34-36) “For all have sinned, and ...

“Then Jesus called the crowd, along with his disciples, and said to them, “If anyone wants to become my follower, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.

This morning in The Gospel of Mark chapter 8 we read how Peter put Jesus in a box and and what happened when Jesus stepped out of it.

We read in The Gospel of Mark in 8:29 where Jesus asks his disciples a question about his identity. “He ( Jesus ) asked them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered him, “You are the Christ.” Peter responded correctly, declaring Jesus was the anointed one, The Christ, T...

Good morning Lord Jesus, through your Holy Spirit I place myself in the throne room of the Father and bow and worship you. “Then Jesus began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and experts in the law, and be killed, and after thre...

“Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, He was asking His disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” And they said, “Some say John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but still others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.” He *said to them, “But who do you say ...

The simplest definition of a disciple is someone who listens to what God is saying to them, and the does it. Hearing and then obeying. So are you able to hear what God is saying to you?

Good morning!
Jesus' invitation to follow him to everyone he met "safe", welcoming and open to everyone. His message to everyone who chooses to follow him challenges every aspect of our being.

Good morning!
As we continue on our journey through the Gospel of Mark in chapter 8 we come to Jesus' challenging question, "Who do you say that I am?"

Much love!

Good morning Lord Jesus, with all that I am I seek all that you are. Then Jesus and his disciples went to the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that I am?” They said, “John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and still others, one of the prophets....
