- [Do Not Hinder Them](https://www.drstevecassell.com/do-not-hinder-them/) - There is a secret I want to share with you which illustrates a powerful essence of God’s heart that is trying to be changed, assaulted, and veiled by our deviant culture today. That secret is: God defends innocence. I say secret because there seem to be two opposing and polarizing messages that have been in a fight
- [We The People](https://www.drstevecassell.com/we-the-people/) - It is really happening… As I sit here in Frankfurt airport watching the sunrise dawning over Germany, my thoughts are also rising with enlightenment as I reflect upon the changing Spiritual climate of our globe. The Great Awakening is not just a figment of a preacher’s incessant exhortation-filled mind, it is also not some distant,
- [Fear the Lord](https://www.drstevecassell.com/fear-the-lord/) - When we lived in Texas, it was a common phenomenon to see a video of someone frying an egg on the sidewalk as a reaffirmation to all the hot people that the weather was hot… a visual illustration of, “duh.” If America was an egg, we would need to flip it soon or the bottom would be burnt.
- [The Illiteracy Rate](https://www.drstevecassell.com/the-illiteracy-rate/) - One of the reasons, in my humble opinion, we are being inundated with the preaching of craziness is the lack of understanding about Biblical construction. My specific point of conflict is the pervasive attitude that the writers of the New Testament epistles just kinda made stuff up as they were constructing their corpus under the
- [Words of Affirmation](https://www.drstevecassell.com/words-of-affirmation/) - I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like me! Does anybody remember “Stuart Smalley”… the self-affirmation guru that, just a few years ago, was the mocking face of the rise of insincerity being promoted for the cause of ‘therapeutic individualism’? In a shocking, and nearly prophetic, turn of events, we now live
- [In or Out?](https://www.drstevecassell.com/in-or-out/) - Context is king (with a small ’k’)… This blog will have a different flavor to it because my goal is to inspire by information in a category that some readers might not be highly interested in. If a short training on better bible study techniques is not of interest to you, that is understandable. But, you
- [Hold This Ground](https://www.drstevecassell.com/hold-this-ground/) - Very similar to today, the American Civil War was a tumultuous period in the history of the United States. Brother against brother, in the pain and sacrifice that is always present in the evils of war. On a side note, this is also why many of you have a heaviness in your heart about the
- [But WHY?](https://www.drstevecassell.com/but-why/) - Quick! What’s your kid’s favorite word… and your most aggravating at the same time? WHY! Every parent has been plagued by the incessant nagging of the infinitely curious mind of their child’s unquenchable quest to understand why things are the way they are or could be, or should be, or not… ugh. As agonizing as
- [Good News!](https://www.drstevecassell.com/good-news/) - It has become very unpopular today to be a good person. Well, that is to say, a good person as defined by a good God. Some of you may know that I have been working with Doc Ryan for many months now to plant an organic church up in his neck-of-the-woods by Lake Geneva. A
- [Testing... Testing...](https://www.drstevecassell.com/testing-testing/) - Our culture today has twisted the idea of ‘testing’ into an inhumane process akin to the antiquated ignorance of expired principles like ‘honor your father and mother,’ ‘be ye holy,’ and ‘respect your elders.’ Sadly, this anti-testing attitude has been pervading the church for decades as well. Many conversations where a Godly leader or elder could be lovingly
- [Wax On, Wax Off](https://www.drstevecassell.com/wax-on-wax-off/) - What is the melting point of wax? From the Garden of Eden's forbidden fruit to the Tower of Babel's prideful ascent, the sin of hubris has cast a long shadow on humanity. In the Christian perspective, it represents a fundamental flaw, a turning away from God and towards the intoxicating mirage of self-sufficiency. This arrogance,
- [Her](https://www.drstevecassell.com/her/) - This is for the women. But, the wise fellas out there will listen up. This is my first official writing since my return from Kenya where I was engaged in a long and diverse ministry endeavor that took our team across most of the country. On a side note, all my travel muscles have been
- [For Freedom's Sake](https://www.drstevecassell.com/for-freedoms-sake/) - Greetings from Kenya, and the Kenyan family of believers! When I find myself immersed in a culture divergent from our own in America, I cannot help but have vast theological and geopolitical thoughts while observing the differences. It is hard to miss the oppressive realities in both places with just basic observable stats. For example,
- [Seeketh Not Her Own - Legit Love Has Limits](https://www.drstevecassell.com/seeketh-not-her-own-legit-love-has-limits/) - Here I am, at 6 am on St. Valentine’s Day, writing to you about love. Some of you may consider this a great gift in celebration, while others may think this to be some kind of ridiculous joke and you are waiting for me to slip in a subtle punchline. There is no punchline, because

Today, there is a ballot measure that will appear before the Florida Supreme Court about an initiative to codify in the Florida State Constitution that
- [Take Courage, Trauma-Based Life vs Triumph-Based Life](https://www.drstevecassell.com/take-courage-trauma-based-life-vs-triumph-based-life/) - There seems to be a growing divide among the mentally healthy and the unhealthy. And we have all learned the principle of our health being a derivative of the prosperity of our soul (3 John 2). Part of the cause for that widening chasm is how our destructive media and social influencers fawn and affirm
- [Logical Communication](https://www.drstevecassell.com/logical-communication/) - When I was a youngster, my dad introduced me to the Chronicles of Narnia series of books. Even as young as five years old, I would love to read, which in my opinion, is the key to all intellectual growth, whether we are speaking of general cognitive health or revelatory spiritual wisdom. The first book I ever
- [I Must Confess](https://www.drstevecassell.com/i-must-confess/) - I am a Catholic. But, I am not a Roman one. Maybe you are too… The word, "Catholic," has a fascinating etymology, traveling through multiple languages and absorbing layers of meaning along the way. Here's the journey: Ancient Greek: It all starts with the Greek adjective καθολικός (katholikos), meaning, "universal," "general," or, "whole." This word
- [War of the Words](https://www.drstevecassell.com/war-of-the-words/) - As many of you already know, I am not the kinda guy who has any value about the ever-changing ‘hype’ in our ridiculous and irreverent society. I also strive to resist the temptation to use popular communication tactics, even as a person who truly understands my role as an influencer in our world today. My
- [The Preacher](https://www.drstevecassell.com/the-preacher/) - Welcome to the new year and a brand new set of expectations. It has become commonplace for the general populous to acknowledge that things in our world are… welp… just not quite right. Yet, with a closer examination, there may be unseen details that are valuable for ‘Good News’ people who are eternally committed to
- [Futile Ways](https://www.drstevecassell.com/futile-ways/) - Futile Ways How does one become the victim of the snake... We all know that our enemy is oft portrayed as a snake in scripture. Starting with the “nachash,” in Genesis chapter three, we are introduced to the arch enemy, the adversary, of humanity… a subtle serpent that slithered into the sacred, covenantal space known
- [Real Change](https://www.drstevecassell.com/real-change/) - Remember when the whole nation, it seemed, voted for, "Hope and Change"? The emotions, the hype, the ‘historical moment’ complex, the pressure, and the glitzy advertising were like a road grater rolling over an ant mound on a gravel road. Then reality, like the joy of a mortgage payment, started its painful rise from the
- [The Lone Ranger](https://www.drstevecassell.com/the-lone-ranger/) - Those of you who are, “old,” like me may remember the ‘Lone Ranger’ phenomenon. I say phenomenon because it was more than a show. Some nuances had applicable life principles that I reflect on now and realize there was some subtle Kingdom thinking that was being seeded into my heart. If you do not
- [Exciting News](https://www.drstevecassell.com/exciting-news/) - Dear subscriber and friend! I am truly blessed and honored to write to you. One of the reasons for such sincere language is because you are reading THIS. That indicates that you have done the 'hard thing' (remember: Heroes Do Hard Things!) of subscribing to my blog here at Dr. Steve Cassell, the website home
- [The Riot Act](https://www.drstevecassell.com/the-riot-act/) - In an honest confession of sincerity, I admittedly have had my brain a bit too engaged with thoughts that were thrust upon me instead of carefully and diligently choosing only those mental processes that conform to our command by the Holy Spirit through Paul in Philippians chapter four: “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever
- [What You Have To Offer](https://www.drstevecassell.com/what-you-have-to-offer/) - As we often say at Beloved, “We live in the most glorious times ever!” I will let you in on a little bit of what goes on in your leadership team. We spend a good portion of our time together rejoicing in the victory all of us are experiencing in every part of our family.
- [Community](https://www.drstevecassell.com/community/) - We are a community. A very specific, uniquely defined, distinctive in our design, and purposefully ordained for, “high calling,” functions that are known and not yet revealed. I know I just opened our communication with some heavy statements and thoughts, but stick with me and I will do my best to smooth it out like
- [With All Your Heart](https://www.drstevecassell.com/with-all-your-heart/) - If possible, I would spend hours with each of you, separately, in intimate conversation about what Kay and I experienced in Germany. The relevance to each of our healthy, Christian journeys is undeniable, and, because of the tangible expressions of the world-wide expansion of THE Great Awakening, now is the time for us all to
- [Identification](https://www.drstevecassell.com/identification/) - Greetings, our Beloved Family, Over and over these past couple of weeks, as we have been asking people about what the Lord has been putting on their hearts right now, one word stands out as a common theme: identity. Identity touches so many areas of our lives. Over time, we have likely taken on many
- [Transitional Space](https://www.drstevecassell.com/transitional-space/) - Kay and I are midway through the Marriage Covenant Retreat as I type this email from the sunny side of our Mexican pool. I know… suffering for Jesus. But, on a serious note, the debauchery and godless attitude of the poor lost folks that are filling the many bars in this concrete play-land, just makes
- [Constant Thread](https://www.drstevecassell.com/constant-thread/) - What is the point… what is it really all about? There is a divine idea threaded throughout nearly every page of scripture that some folks do not readily pick up on as they digest the history and story of humanity captured in our sacred writings. It is a theme that is direct in some places,
- [In Harmony](https://www.drstevecassell.com/in-harmony/) - Here we stand, together, overlooking the landscape of our once cherished nation, the debilitating debauchery of society and the increase in lawlessness and wickedness becoming, “mainstream,” in real time. My prayer is for everyone who has eyes to see that this is a, “watershed moment,” for you firstly, and collectively all of humanity. A watershed
- [Chosen By Grace](https://www.drstevecassell.com/chosen-by-grace/) - When you look out across the landscape of our society, what do you see? It is undeniable to acknowledge the moral deviancy, the open satanic practices through Hollywood technicolor, and the concerted targeting of the identity of our young people. The once well-sewn seams of culture, stitched through divine design, have now become an open target
- [Transformers](https://www.drstevecassell.com/transformers/) - It’s beginning to look a lot like _____! What’s your answer? As I sit here at my desk, in my war/peace study space, the snow is accumulating across the yard and cornfield that is my normal and naturalistic view of my small part of the world. To the blank in the opening line it would
- [Perspective](https://www.drstevecassell.com/perspective/) - It’s beginning to look a lot like _____! What’s your answer?

To the blank in the opening line it would
- [The Anticipation](https://www.drstevecassell.com/the-anticipation/) - What are you expecting… and how much are you expecting it?

I need to express to you how blessed and nourished my heart was to be with y’all on Sunday and the experiences we shared together in that time were of great value. I
- [Happy Thanksgiving](https://www.drstevecassell.com/happy-thanksgiving-2/) - Happy Thanksgiving, my dear Beloved Family! As you all likely know, I struggle with “holidays.” Not because I do not want to celebrate people, momentous occasions, or special occurrences… but, because when there is external pressure to do so, it becomes disingenuous. If one is commanded to celebrate the value and appreciation for their spouse being
- [Reality Check](https://www.drstevecassell.com/reality-check/) - #Winning That symbol in front of the word, “winning,” is called a hashtag. It is used to, “tag,” social media posts together into a single place of reference. Hashtag: a word or phrase preceded by a hash sign (#), used on social media sites and applications, especially Twitter, to identify digital content on a specific topic.
- [Self-Image](https://www.drstevecassell.com/self-image/) - I have these statements written on my laptop keyboard to look at everyday: * Choice determines daily habits * Daily habits determine direction * Direction determines destination In my countless hours of research and study, I was unexpectedly attracted to some wording in an article about one of the many woes affecting our society and culture
- [It's November](https://www.drstevecassell.com/its-november/) - I am really not the kind of guy to mention calendar moments as having any legitimate value in the Kingdom pursuits that we are all called to focus on. If you ask anyone who truly knows me, they will tell you I am not a holiday guy … a birthday guy … a Hallmark-created “special”
- [As Jesus Did, So Will We](https://www.drstevecassell.com/as-jesus-did-so-will-we/) - What people don’t know is killing them! Salutations and blessings to you, Beloved Family! I pray that your heart is growing in grace, in knowledge of the Holy One, and in fruitfulness of the truth.

- [Still We Pursue](https://www.drstevecassell.com/still-we-pursue/) - Pursue peace with everyone, as well as holiness, without which no one will see the Lord. Hebrews 12:14 BSB We were fellowshipping with my pastors, Pastor Rich and Miss Dorothy, and some of the leadership team on Sunday night. Before we broke bread, I asked Pastor Craig to say the blessing. During his prayer, he blessed
- [Discernment](https://www.drstevecassell.com/discernment-2/) - Those of you Beloved peeps who were physically in service this past week heard me speak, “off the record,” for a bit about some topics that led us into a short, unrecorded time about, “discernment.” Here we are, a few days later, and it is almost as if the ungodly, woke culture that surrounds us
- [Set Apart](https://www.drstevecassell.com/set-apart/) - I gotta admit… I have to confess a fault to y’all, my church family. I have some jealousy that I am processing because you were honored to experience some of my favorite ministers while Kay and I were away: Pastor Bob and Doc Ryan. Kay and I were some of the first viewers of the Rumble
- [Be Diligent](https://www.drstevecassell.com/be-diligent/) - Greetings to my Beloved family, and welcome to 2023! Breaking with tradition, I am not going to wish you a, “Happy New Year,” because I desire for you to have more. How about a, “Joyous New Year,” in which you can face every situation that you may encounter with the fruit of the Spirit
- [Shipwrecked](https://www.drstevecassell.com/shipwrecked/) - How do we fight this cultural war in the spirit when we are facing enemies in the flesh? Greetings in grace from Woodland Park, Colorado! Your Beloved leaders are here on our annual trek to Charis Bible College to experience Andrew’s Minister’s Conference. One of the things that I have committed our leadership team to, who you
- [Psych](https://www.drstevecassell.com/psych/) - The struggle is real. The ageless struggle afflicting all humanity is based on our common, societal experience. That struggle is the endless war that has raged since our removal from the perfect Garden of Eden until we experience the apocalyptic restoration of the new heavens and the new earth. For much of each of our
- [Cosmos](https://www.drstevecassell.com/cosmos/) - The corrupted, societal influences that surround us all have been enormously successful in forcing the thought patterns of humanity into the direction they predetermine. They have previously decided that we all should compliantly follow their programming when it comes to the major and minor logical conclusions. This has never been more obviously illustrated than the
- [Cause and Effect](https://www.drstevecassell.com/cause-and-effect/) - A central principle that is woven into the entire relationship between God and man is personal responsibility. If you have heard the erroneous doctrine of, “generational curses,” then you know my painful plight. But, other, equally egregious, and mainstream doctrinal beliefs cause equal amounts of confusion and/or reduction of personal responsibility. Three of the main
- [DO IT!](https://www.drstevecassell.com/do-it/) - War… huh… Good God y’all. What is it good for, absolutely nothing. Probably by now, you have been informed about the war launched by Hamas against the nation of Israel. Additionally, it is imperative to know that the many murdered Israeli civilians, including public executions of women and children, have been planned and orchestrated
- [Love for One Another](https://www.drstevecassell.com/love-for-one-another/) - Many of you may know already some of the background that has been a foundational part of the journey that led Kay and me to the Beloved family. For almost thirty years, we have been in some of the, “premier,” Spiritual environments with some of the, “coolest kids,” doing Christianity today. We have had the
- [Fear Not](https://www.drstevecassell.com/fear-not/) - We have been mostly diligent over the past three years, or so, to form a community that has a healthy level of disgust towards fear. That is something that blesses me immensely because fear is such a commonly acceptable way of living that it has almost become the, “new normal,” for our modern society. You
- [Removing the Spirit](https://www.drstevecassell.com/removing-the-spirit/) - Which is stronger: love or hate? Is anyone else becoming increasingly aware of how much of what is happening around us is getting more and more extreme… or is it just me? It seems there is a new war, or conflict, or terror attack, or invasion, or mutilation, or some other grotesque thing exploding onto the
- [Discernment](https://www.drstevecassell.com/discernment/) - When I was a kid and watched Saturday morning cartoons, Superman was obviously one of my favorites. I am sure you are shocked to hear that after taking a year to develop our last series, “The Hero Within.” You rightfully picked up on the parallels being drawn from that most prominent superhero and our individual callings
- [How](https://www.drstevecassell.com/how/) - Hello!? Hellloooo… is this thing on? There seems to be so much confusion from so many voices in our world today, and even in the Kingdom. What is said… what was said… what was heard… what was meant… what was implied… what was intended… what should be said… what was left unsaid… who said it
- [Beginning and the End](https://www.drstevecassell.com/beginning-and-the-end/) - Kay and I were silently and intently focused on Doc Ryan’s message yesterday as we were adding more miles to our lifelong adventures in faith. It was evidently and undeniably important how many times and places the Kingdom reality of discipleship continues to surface in our culture from any and every messaging portal. Something that
- [This or That](https://www.drstevecassell.com/this-or-that/) - Harsh or indulgent tends to be the general attitude toward the nature of God. Even when people start to legitimately engage with the scriptures, there are difficulties in balancing certain passages or historical accounts with others that tend to throw the character of God in one ditch or the other. Webster’s take on, “harsh,” rings
- [Our Part For Life](https://www.drstevecassell.com/our-part-for-life/) - Hello dear family who are greatly loved! I am still processing the last couple weeks. The height of Kingdom joy and excitement that many of us were able to embrace during “Family Camp” is literally marked in my heart and memory. When Jessica first pitched the idea to me early last year, I was not
- [Seek Peace](https://www.drstevecassell.com/seek-peace/) - So, here I sit, in the glorious morning light of the Adeline Christian Camp sun. It is 6:45AM, a pile of our young people are at a picnic table to my left studying the scriptures together out of John 4. They are questioning each other about the words of Jesus. In the cafeteria, there are scattered
- [For Christ's Sake](https://www.drstevecassell.com/for-christs-sake/) - And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32 This is the last verse of Ephesians chapter four and the first line of my exhortation to you, my Beloved Family. This is one of those “Kingdom culture” statements that the epistles are brimming with.
- [Meak, Not Weak](https://www.drstevecassell.com/meak-not-weak/) - But the LORD says, “The captives of warriors will be released, and the plunder of tyrants will be retrieved. For I will fight those who fight you, and I will save your children Isaiah 49:25 NLT Passionate greetings to you, the revealed Beloved of your Father who have embraced the identity of your calling in Christ.
- [Active Construction Site](https://www.drstevecassell.com/active-construction-site/) - What are you building today? I declare favor and wisdom over your plans and purposes this day.

There is a ton to glean from that
- [Sissification](https://www.drstevecassell.com/sissification/) - We are being pelted and shaken into more awareness of the sissification of society with every passing news cycle… Greetings in bold anticipation to you, our dear Beloved Family! What a joyous honor to have Mike and Carrie Pickett release their grace and wisdom upon us for the whole weekend. I pray that you all
- [Stay Focused](https://www.drstevecassell.com/stay-focused/) - Let us go on a little journey together today… into THE Great Awakening. I was studying my way through a past revival in scripture and I was impacted by how many applications and direct references could be drawn for today’s divine calling: “And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former
- [Without and Within](https://www.drstevecassell.com/without-and-within/) - The fight “without” and the fight “within” are both real and raging. This world desires to possess our souls for destruction… but, our Savior desires to impress upon our souls the victory of His Finished Work. For even when we were come into Macedonia our flesh had no relief, but we were afflicted on every
- [Ah, Death...](https://www.drstevecassell.com/ah-death/) - Here we are, smack dab in the middle of the year, and just like our Father promised us… it just keeps getting better! Ahhh… the immeasurable joy and inexpressible peace of dying… This understanding creates a reality and an attitude of proper focus towards God’s will in the present and future. This is the glorious
- [A Full Quiver](https://www.drstevecassell.com/a-full-quiver/) - Our young people are the heritage that comes from our Lord. Greetings to you heroes who are the Beloved of God. Psalms 127:3-5 Lo, children [are] an heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the womb [is his] reward. As arrows [are] in the hand of a mighty man; so [are] children of the
- [Don't Get Waxed](https://www.drstevecassell.com/dont-get-waxed/) - Beloved! Don’t get waxed! My sincerest greetings to you, my favorite church family. Last week, as many of you know, I ministered a very hard message. I knew when I was ministering it that it was going to be a bit tenuous to hear. Yet, one of the things that so often encourages me about the type of
- [Called by Name](https://www.drstevecassell.com/called-by-name/) - But the true Shepherd walks right up to the gate, and because the gatekeeper knows who he is, he opens the gate to let him in. And the sheep recognize the voice of the true Shepherd, for he calls his own by name and leads them out, for they belong to him. John 10:2-3 (TPT)
- [Christus Victor](https://www.drstevecassell.com/christus-victor/) - Now the Spirit expressly states that in later times some will abandon the faith to follow deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons, influenced by the hypocrisy of liars, whose consciences are seared with a hot iron. 1 Timothy 4:1-2 BSB Beloved! We are one day deeper into THE Great Awakening and things are changing
- [Satan's Worst Nightmare](https://www.drstevecassell.com/satans-worst-nightmare/) - Blessings and favor to you, my dearest Beloved Family! Did your heart grow more confident and intimate from hearing the truths and revelations that Bryan so graciously brought us? Mine did. I have thought quite a bit on different parts of those two messages ever since… Strange question: what does satan hate? Have you ever though
- [Egocentrismo](https://www.drstevecassell.com/egocentrismo/) - The Spanish word of the day is, “egocentrismo.” Even the gringos among us can possibly pick up on the meaning of this word without too much lexical digging. When I saw that word a few weeks ago, it grabbed me because it is the direct translation of, “self-centeredness,” which is the title of a required
- [Do You Hear the Rumble?](https://www.drstevecassell.com/do-you-hear-the-rumble/) - There has been an avalanche slowly compiling snowfall after snowfall for decades now. Sometimes it has come in blizzards and sometimes in just dustings. I am uncertain as to when, or even what will cause the final descent of the overpowering, mountainous force of pure whiteness, but we are inching ever closer with each passing
- [Encounter the Ark](https://www.drstevecassell.com/encounter-the-ark/) - Have you ever considered what thoughts were going through Noah and his family’s minds when they eventually stepped off the boat? Imagine being in a weird family where your dad spent seventy-five years preaching to people who mockingly rejected his radical message while busily building a big ole’ boat in the middle of land-locked nowhere as a
- [Picture This](https://www.drstevecassell.com/picture-this/) - The darkness of the time was unparalleled in the history of the people. Their national leader, who supernaturally delivered the whole nation from four hundred years of torturous oppression and humiliating slavery was now dead. One of the greatest leaders to ever live and a national hero simply walked off into the mountain’s foothills never
- [Finish, Failure, or Fandom](https://www.drstevecassell.com/finish-failure-or-fandom/) - I was very grateful that Bryan Greenwood was prompted by God to come and release a message of identity to our Beloved Family. Afterward, when we were all conversing about what the Lord had done over the years with our church, and also the good plans that we all recognize are coming to fruition, there
- [Start Your Engines](https://www.drstevecassell.com/start-your-engines/) - A normal small-town dweller’s annual activity list will likely involve the county fair. Our local one just ended this past Saturday with the premier grandstand event of the, “Demolition Derby.” This is the greatest draw for spectators and also the highlight event for the culmination of the entire week’s festivities. Greasy shade-tree mechanics, highly-skilled technicians,
- [Creation is Eagerly Waiting](https://www.drstevecassell.com/creation-is-eagerly-waiting/) - Hello my dear Beloved family!

What an awesome and special time together on Sunday. Maybe some folks have not considered this, but y’all did about 6-7 hours together… non-stop… in a church… with other Christians… AND survived! Ha! We have such a
- [Occupy](https://www.drstevecassell.com/occupy/) - Greetings to my beloved family! While reading Acts chapter 1 this morning, my attention was drawn to verse 4, which reads as follows: And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. Verse 5 is a continuation of a direct quotation from

- [The Shew](https://www.drstevecassell.com/the-shew/) - Hello, dearest Beloved family! Are y’all ready for a show? Let us look at some very powerful truths together from Jesus that are very pertinent for us today in this time. He was specifically referencing the ministry of Holy Spirit and how deeply necessary that is for all of us today. John 16:12-15 I have
- [Stedfast](https://www.drstevecassell.com/stedfast/) - Hello precious Beloved family! What an amazing day to be alive and experiencing the Kingdom of Heaven as it continues to manifest here on earth and especially in our midst as we gather each week in Sunday services, koinonia after service, Grace Groups, and the many other ways we connect. It impacts my heart in a way
- [Philosophy](https://www.drstevecassell.com/philosophy-2/) - Good day to be a child of God, Beloved family! There was SOOOO much I left unsaid on Sunday that it is still burning in my bones. I am deeply considering doing an entire class on, “Biblical Worldview,” in the near future, but it will depend on the desire and response among y’all… Just to fill
- [Authentic and Faithful](https://www.drstevecassell.com/authentic-and-faithful-2/) - Greetings in Grace, my dearest Beloved Family! Some of you may know this, but I wanted to convey it clearly for the benefit of all. Nearly every Tuesday, the leadership team, staff, and ministers of Beloved Church meet for about six hours to receive revelation on how to be more mature leaders, expound the scriptures together,
- [Generosity](https://www.drstevecassell.com/generosity-2/) - Greetings in grace my dear Beloved Family! I pray you are looking for more and more opportunities to live your life in the authentic Liberty that has been granted to you through the Liberation of your Glorious Savior! As many of you know, we are week-deep into Family Camp in Adeline, IL. This is a
- [Justified](https://www.drstevecassell.com/justified/) - Greetings in Grace, my dear Beloved Family! I pray that hearing about an insignificant slave girl changing two nations has impacted you to believe in your Heavenly significance. This internal struggle for significance takes many casualties in todays world, but I believe you are more than a conqueror! Jesus calls you significant by His blood.
- [A Heart After God](https://www.drstevecassell.com/a-heart-after-god/) - Greetings, precious Beloved Family! What a time and celebration we were blessed to experience together this past Sunday. The patriotism… the outreach where hundreds were touched… the pulpit aflame with righteousness… the breaking of bread… the rockets red glare and the bombs busting in air… it was literally one of my favorite Independence Day celebrations
- [Be Courageous](https://www.drstevecassell.com/be-courageous-2/) - Greetings in Grace, dear Beloved Family! What a GLORY-ous (do ya see that word play there…) time with Pastor Rich and Ms. Dorothy we were blessed to experience together this past weekend. It is truly a joy and honor to share my pastors with you, my favorite peeps. This past Tuesday, I was ministering to
- [Yet](https://www.drstevecassell.com/yet/) - Greetings in Great Gratitude for The Finished Work of the Cross AND the fellowship that YOU, the saints, have given to me and the Beloved Team this most glorious year! This past year has presented some of the greatest opportunities for me, the team, (and I pray) you have experienced in Divine intervention and interaction
- [Like a Cancer](https://www.drstevecassell.com/like-a-cancer/) - Greetings in the festive and blessed truth of what this time is presenting to us! We are going into the, “holiday season,” and we are getting, day-by-day, deeper into THE Great Awakening, which for me is reason to anticipate an increase in joy, peace, and expectation among the authentic people of God… psssst… that is
- [The Dark Nights](https://www.drstevecassell.com/the-dark-nights/) - Greetings to the precious Beloved of the Father! I pray and deeply desire that your heart is anchored to the rock of your salvation and that you are experiencing the peace of the Prince of Peace who dwells with you and in you as His favored people. This message will find you just a couple
- [Own It](https://www.drstevecassell.com/own-it/) - Greetings to you as you grow in your hopeful expectation of Good things to come, precious Beloved family! In the last few days, I have been more aware of the responsibilities I have, and we have, to this planet and our personal time in history. When the staff was together this week, I was sharing
- [Patient Confidence](https://www.drstevecassell.com/patient-confidence/) - Greetings in Grace to you, the greatly valued Beloved Family! I pray that you prosper this day to the level of Divine desire that the Father expressed through the broken and resurrected Son of Liberty, our Savior, Jesus the Christ. I was literally awakened last night by the Father resonating this word through my soul:
- [Homecoming](https://www.drstevecassell.com/homecoming/) - It is, “Homecoming Week,” 2022 in the inaugural year of the soon-to-be best school ever founded this side of Heaven. I cannot begin to express how proud (good version), thankful, and honored I am to see and get to be a small part of this Kingdom ministry. These self-less and precious servants who are, “working,” there…
- [Freedom of Speech](https://www.drstevecassell.com/freedom-of-speech/) - It seems that with every passing day, as we adventure together down this pathway towards THE Great Awakening, a key and necessary ingredient in those who are navigating this uncharted terrain more favorably is the attribute of, “confidence.” What I am not eluding to in this message is the self-help, hyped-up, emotionally-energized version of confidence that comes
- [Momentum](https://www.drstevecassell.com/momentum/) - I am sitting in a liminal place… Long, convoluted, and (likely) boring story, but I have been back and forth to O’Hare twice in two days, had to repurchase a Kenyan e-visa, had to repurchase airfare for the same flight I was supposed to be on, lost a buncha time, spent too much money for
- [Just One](https://www.drstevecassell.com/just-one/) - In the first great awakening of the New Covenant era, there is an interesting and intriguing account that I believe has application for our journey today. It is the story of a government official (ugh), a eunuch (yikes), a lifeless desert (hmmm), racism (yep, it was a real thing two thousand years ago), and two
