Sharing the sufficiency of Jesus Christ for every aspect of the Christian life

Performance Spirituality???

What in the world is "performance spirituality?"

Performance spirituality means that the measure of success in spiritual life comes from the quantity and quality of religious performance.

Sadly, many who know the gospel believe that they will never be good enough to enjoy the rest Jesus promised because they have not performed well enough, but they keep trying.  In the process they usually are miserable and they often share their misery with others.

But there is grace for your heart in Jesus!

 

The message of Christ is good news! He has given His life for you and to you. He is your righteousness, your strength, and your life. All that you need is found in Him. No, you can never be good enough, but He is - and He is good enough for you. The good news of the gospel is that all you need for living a successful Christian life is in the gift He has already given (2 Peter 1:3).

The truth is that spirituality is messy, inconsistent, and not really all that much fun at times.  We are creatures in transition.  As someone said: we are not what we were, but we are certainly not what we will be.  We fail and frown and fuss and fall.  But all the way, Jesus is with us.  His righteousness makes us righteous.  His love will get us through.

So, welcome to our website! Take a look around, read some articles, relax and enjoy the message.
