Three Goals of Our Mastermind Program
Relationally Oriented: The student makes personal application as they authentically understand and practice the Bible. They do this through modeling and teaching what they learn.
Local Church Priority: Every Christian is a discipler, and the best place, outside of our homes, for sanctification is the local church. We train the student to do soul care to help restore discipleship to the church.
Bible-centered: God's Word speaks to all of life. We have a sufficiency of Scripture worldview. We help our students to connect the Bible to their lives as they teach others to do similarly.

A local church’s worship value is not primarily about the music but the lifestyle because you never ask, “Are you worshiping?” The reason is that we worship all the time. God made us for worship—wired us for worship, you could say.
Worship is part of what it means to be image-bearers. Who could do otherwise? The better question is, “What or whom do we worship?” https://lifeovercoffee.com/three-characteristics-of-a-fantastic-local-church/
Whenever a person chooses sinful anger, he is, in effect, giving the other person control over him. It’s counterintuitive. In his anger, he is like a marionette, a puppet on a string.
Anger toward someone is the total submission of their thoughts, attitudes, emotions, and behaviors to the other person. It is not self-control, as governed by the Spirit of God, but someone out of control or under the control of another spirit. https://lifeovercoffee.com/podcast/ep-110-help-for-the-angry-person/
