Xtreme Fire Ministries

Xtreme Fire Ministries A ministry that strives to show the love of Christ to those that need Him the most, those that others shy away from. This ministry is not like the others.

Fearless faith, reckless love, and a fire for Christ...that is Xtreme Fire. Our path, our walks, our ways are not the same. We can't and won't try and mimic the way others started, or pattern ourselves after them. We can't compare how we are to others, we aren't like the others. Their ways are not necessarily wrong, but they are not what we do. We are called to walk and do things as close to Chris

t and His apostles as possible. We will walk where others won't, reach out to those they avoid. We will go, without fear, to the darkest corners of the earth just to share His love. From our beginning, to the time Jesus comes back, we are called to be different. We are not a church. We are a new way style of ministry, yet one based on the original style and methods of Jesus and His apostles. It's not about preaching, or teaching, but spreading His love and teaching who Christ truly is. We will do anything, risk everything just to reach that one person that needs Him the most. That is the Xtreme Fire Difference.

John 15:12 NLT
"This is my commandment: Love each other in the same way I have loved you."

These words can be found in red letters, a new commandment given to us by Jesus Himself. It's simple, we are to love EVERYONE the same way that Jesus loves us. That means more than judging, more that hating, more than theology, more than traditions, more than the old law many still follow....LOVE is the most important thing we can show this world. It isn't a suggestion, not a recommendation, not an afterthought....no it's the very basis of our faith. Choose to show love, and watch how God moves.

"the Simplicity of the Gospel"

We've spent years trying to unravel and unwrap the mysteries of the Bible, digging deep into religious text and analyzing the words within. Instead of clarity it's only brought division, anger, pain, and hatred. What if following Christ, truly being His, was much more simple than we realize? What if the secrets of the Bible are in the simplicity, written in plain sight?
With all the different beliefs, doctrines, and denominations it begs the question "what is required to follow Jesus....really"? The truth is as simple as counting to three, hidden right in front of our faces.
The Bible talks of child-like faith, how faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains, Jesus talks of leaving everything and following Him, and Paul talks of being free from old testament law and that we are now bound by the law of Christ (to love God and love people).
When you take all of that, put it together, you get the truth...reality in plain sight. To follow Jesus, to really be called His means to give Him everything! That means trusting Him with everything; from your family, to your job or school, your health, down to every you own...all of it is His. It also means all your dreams, worrys, pain and struggles....every aspect, feeling, trial and victory is His as well. Even when your faith seems weak, like it's not enough, give it to Him. Even the smallest of faith, when given fully to Christ, is enough.
Then, the most important part, love God and people. Love like Jesus. Forget the doctrines and law, put people over those things. They were never meant to be the center of your faith, and you are no longer bound to traditions and old testament law...let them go. Love should always be out above all else. Love for God keeps you from continuing in sin. Love for people let's you open up and see the world from their view, letting you into their lives and open their eyes to the truth. No one is ever truly saved through fear tactics and bashing them over mistakes or the way they live.

Hidden deep within the scriptures are many secrets, secrets that let us learn more of who God is. How to follow Christ, however, is not one of those secrets. When your life is devoted to only learning scripture, you've not only wasted your life but also failed at the most basic requirement to following Christ...actively seeking Him, sharing His love with the world, and trusting Him in everything. Following Jesus requires two things, and two things only: love and actively living for Him. Study the Bible, learn of God and the past. Never, however, let that be your life. Dont search for hidden secrets to following Jesus, for that is no secret. Following Jesus is easy to understand, harder to do. It doesn't require a degree, years of study, or any kind of special ritual. Its written all in the new testament, clear as day and not in code. It requires love and faith....that's it. That is the simplicity of the Gospel.

It's okay to not be okay.

Not matter how little or how big your struggles are, its okay that you're not okay. You're never alone and never have to do this on your own. First off God is with you through it all. You also have friends and family that will be there with you, just let them be. It's okay not to be okay.
Whether the news is unbearably heart breaking that you think your world is falling apart; youre still not alone. It's okay that you're not okay, but you're not alone.
It's okay that you get mad at everyone around you and break down. Your loved ones can take it. You can lose faith and start to curse God for what's going on, but even He can take it. It's okay not to be okay. Because no matter what you're going through you have people there for you. One that will never leave you even when things become too hard for everyone else. Because nothing is too hard or impossible for God. He never gives you too much that you cant overcome. There is always a plan, purpose, or victory at the end of the struggle.
So yes it's okay to not to be okay.

"Love Like Jesus"

Let's talk Pride Month & where the church has gotten it ALL WRONG. This will ruffle some feathers, but it's time they are ruffled.

"Even When"

Sometimes life hits hard out of nowhere & it can take your breath away. A natural reaction is to panic, get mad at God, start to stress out. Often we're made to feel guilty for these feelings, like God's feelings are going to be hurt or He's going to finally give up on us. The thing is this, God took into account everything about you when He made you. He knows where you'll struggle, when you'll break, and is strong enough to handle it tantrums we throw. He is the perfect Father, ready to forgive and help us when we're ready to accept the help. Something to remember is this:
Even when everything seems to be piling up on you, He is there. He is there to love you, hold you, and give you hope. When you let go and just trust Him....even if it's barely holding on to that tiny bit of faith you have left.....you start to see Him showing up in the little things. The little things that we often overlook, but at that moment they seem so huge. The little things that when your heart and mind seem so heavy, they lighten it all just a bit. Even when your faith is shaking, breaking, and barely holding on....it is enough. Just give Him everything you have left & He will show up on ways you never imagined.
With faith the size of a mustard seed you can see mountains moved. He is there, ready to move those mountains....even when you feel defeated.

Sometimes it takes leaving your comfort, safety, the familiar behind. Walking with Jesus means going places you never th...

Sometimes it takes leaving your comfort, safety, the familiar behind. Walking with Jesus means going places you never thought you would. It's walking in faith, not walking in tradition.

"Still There"

"I want to get back to God", that's a phrase I've both heard and said many times. It took me many years to learn this truth, a truth that changed everything for me. I pray that maybe, just maybe, this will help you when you find yourself feeling far from God.
The reality is that God never leaves us. The scriptures say He will never leave or forget us. That feeling of being distant is a lie of the enemy. It's Satan's way of keeping us from true blessings, from our true purpose, from truly serving & walking with Christ.
We can spend hours, even days, fighting trying to *earn" or "make it back". We can go to prayer centers and fall on our faces during alter call, and both can and do work. Both can help us find our way back to that place of feeling His presence. But what if you can't get to a prayer center, what if you don't have a way to make it to an church for that alter call? How do we find our way back then, are we just hopeless? No. My friends we can always return to that place. It's, in all reality, as simple as realizing one truth....then accepting it. The truth is He never left, you never slipped away from Him. If you truly belong to Him, then you never fell from His grace. He has always been there, by your side, patiently waiting for you to just call out to Him. God has, and is, walking with you still. Sometimes He stays quiet, and not out of anger or because He stopped loving you. No, like any good parent, God lets us have that space to do what we want. Often that leads us to messing up, and the enemy uses that mistake to fill is with guilt. That guilt can build a wall between us and God, making us feel like He is so far away. But rest easy, my friend. He is still there, always has been, always will be. You never slipped away, He never left your side. His hands are strong enough to hold you no matter you do, His love great enough to forgive anything you might do, and nothing can or will change those two facts. No, my friend He is still in your corner with His arms stretched open. All you have to do is fall on your face and cry out to Him, realize He is still there and still loves you. Realize you are still worth everything to Him and will always be His beloved child. Know that nothing will keep Him away from you, and that nothing you do can rip you from His mighty hands. You are still His, you are still in His arms, and He will always love you more than anything else in this world.

"What Is Ministry?"

I've found myself asking a very deep, major question here lately: "what is ministry?" Is it just church, or outreach? Is it something more, something that requires more? I think God has given me the answers I was looking for and they are so simple they are often overlooked.
Ministry is simply following Christ and striving to be as much like Him as possible...period. That covers everything from loving others, to helping those in need, to worshipping God. It's what the first followers of Jesus did, what the early church was striving to be...just broken people trying to follow, serve, and share Jesus while being as much like Him as possible. It was never meant to be a building or institution, let alone a business.
Somewhere along the way we've lost sight of this, most touch with what and who we really are. With that being said, I began asking more questions...more directed towards my own ministry and team.

What if instead of trying to fit into a ministry mold, we mold ministry to the way God created us? What if instead of trying to recreate something that's failing, we build something new? What if instead of being freaks trying do ministry, we are just a bunch of Jesus freaks living for Christ?! That is Xtreme Fire. Something new, yet old. Something different, yet strangely familiar. It's just a group of outcast following Jesus the only way we know how...by being us and no one else. That is ministry in it's purest, rawest form.

We are stripping away everything that is "church". We are going back to the basics....we will be as true to the original as possible. We're doing something new, so we're gonna kick it real old school. This isn't your granny's church, this is Xtreme Fire Ministries!

"In The Dirt"

Ministry isn't always pretty, easy, or fancy. Sometimes it's ugly, hard, & messy. Don't worry so much about how it looks or sounds, worry about how effective it is.
When we focus on the performance, it becomes a show. If we focus on tradition, it becomes rituals and replaces God. If we worry only about our own salvation, we miss the entire point of the gospels.
We have to get back to a place where our worship is geared towards God only, our ways are fixed on Christ, and our hearts loving like Jesus. It's only after we strip away the pointless traditions, concerns about appearance, and self-serving mindsets that we can get back to the heart of ministry. Beyond the music and sermons, past our walls, there's a much greater need. The world needs real ministry, geared towards a real Christ, and carried out with a real love for people. Fact is this: many times the most effective ministry isn't pretty and polished, it's real and raw. It's when we let go and sincerely let God lead us that we find out the real purpose behind ministry is, and has always been, love. Love for God and love for people, that is the heart of ministry. One cannot exist without the other. There's a world of hurt and dieing people out there and we are failing to reach them. Not because the world has gotten darker, but because our hearts and minds are no longer seeking true ministry with a very real Christ. If we want to truly seek after Him, love like Him, and do our jobs as Christians then we have to be willing to get dirty, to get messy, to look foolish, and love recklessly. Not all ministry is glamorous....usually, more times than not, the most effective and real ministry is found in the dirt.
