Simon Peter walked on water until he was distracted by the wind and waves. The wind and waves are potential, the vast ocean of possibility from which obedience and submission carves eternal purpose. Prioritize your Passion, Preparation, and Positioning The greatest enemy of purpose is potential. Every temptation of Jesus was a test to substitute […]

The enemy’s greatest distraction from purpose is potential. Our nation fell for this distraction from purpose.
