One
of the strangest behaviors in the
American Church is how we Christians
can start out on fire in our walk
with God, but over time we can
actually consider it a drudgery to
spend time with God. So the obvious
question is, "What
happened?" "How did it get
this way?" and "Is there
any hope?" Fortunately, the
answer is YES! You see, sometimes
before we can move forward in our
walk with Jesus Christ, we simply
need to Renew Our Faith with Jesus
Christ. We need to recapture the
right motive for spending time with
Him and stay there. That motive is
simply this; that we have a
beautiful loving intimate personal
relationship with the Creator of the
Universe, not some dry, stale,
stupid, boring, man made religion.
Therefore, this study, Renewing Your
Faith, encourages us to take a fresh
look at why we do what we do as
Christians through the eyes of a
beautiful loving intimate personal
relationship with God. These would
include Renewing Your Prayer,
Renewing Your Worship, Renewing Your
Service, Renewing Your Bible Study,
Renewing Your Fellowship, and
Renewing Your Witness. If you've
ever found yourself crying out,
"Help I'm a Christian and I
can't grow up!" or "Help
I'm a Christian and I'm dead as a
stump!" then I've got good news
for you. It doesn't have to be this
way. Sometimes before you can move
forward in your walk with Jesus
Christ, you simply need to Renew
Your Faith with Him and start
treating your walk with God like it
really is. A beautiful loving
intimate personal relationship with
the Creator of the Universe!
