Article by Pastor Kirk Dueker

Why is it that intelligent people who have worthwhile dreams so often end up far from where they intended to be?  Why is it that so many people start out on the road of life with lofty goals for their relational, financial and professional lives and yet years later find themselves years later in a ditch?  We all know that nobody plans to ruin their life, but somehow it happens.  Harmful habits take root, relationships are destroyed, drift from God takes place and we look back and say, “How did I end up here?”

Ruining your life is easier than you might think because we have an enemy, Satan, who seeks to steal your joy, kill your relationship with God and ruin your life however he can.   He doesn’t usually do it with an all-out frontal attack, but through deceit and lies that he hopes you will buy into.  But if we know who to stay focused on and what to look for we can have a life that is blessed by God.  Join us in the month of September as we identify truths that will empower you to experience the full life that Jesus came to give us.  These principles from God’s Word will keep you from ruinous roadblocks and life-wasting detours on the road to a joy-filled life with God and others.
