Steve Hill: Going to War With the Holy Spirit as Your Weapon of Choice
Note: This story ran on Charismamag.com in 2013. Every one of us has incredible stories to tell. Our religious backgrounds are wonderfully different.

Steve Hill: Read All the Words in Red
The other day I picked up my Bible, opened to the Gospels and began to read only the words printed in red. Yes, every word of Scripture is God-breathed, but for this devotion I simply wanted to emphasize the words of Christ. I had barely turned a few pages before tears began to well up …

The Spiritual Danger of Being Bored to Death
The other day a middle-aged “mature” Christian blurted out a statement that shot like a rocket through my spirit. He looked me straight in the eyes and said, “I am so bored with life. I’m fed up with everything.” Why did his words have such an impact on my life? Why should these words refuse …

Steve Hill: It’s Time for Some Christian Profiling
The term profiling is relatively new in today’s vocabulary.

Steve Hill: Getting Back to the Amazingness of Grace
For some reason known only to the Lord I am reminded of a dear saint of God who would be spiritually crushed by the lack of depth in today’s Christian world. Of course, I can’t speak for him, but I can speak about him. He was radically saved by the grace and mercy of God. …
