But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ. Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith— that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, that by any means possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Let those of us who are mature think this way, and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal that also to you.

Does your past haunt you with guilt and a broken spirit? Is your life like a broken record—one in which your past is replayed over and over again? In this final message we will learn how the records of our past lives can break us and bring us to our knees. The beauty of this is that Christ had a broken record as well. In fact, He was broken to save and heal our brokenness.
Have you ever gone through the painful experience of loss? Either personal or material loss? Loss of this magnitude can break and leave us shattered but God meets us in the middle of this loss and can put the pieces back together. In fact, God provides abundantly and magnificently in the midst of loss if we will look for Him. God provides exactly what you need in times of loss.
Get a glimpse into the rich truths in Bishop Courtney McBath’s book, Living at the Next Level. We weren’t meant to simply survive, or take hold of salvation merely to go to heaven. Instead, God desires us to take hold of the abundant, joyful, rewarding life that comes as a direct result of communion and relationship with Him!
There are three tenets in football that drive the game: We should focus on the basics, keep our eye on the ball, and never forget it is more than just a sport. In Philippians 3, the Apostle Paul wants us to get into Jesus’ frame of mind so that we can play the field just as He did. What was in Jesus’ mind? Can we get the same results?
