The Scriptures tell us that in Christ, through Christ, and by Christ we are free. Free. “In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence” (Ephesians 3:12). The legislation has been passed in heaven. Yet freedom is far from practiced or enforced.

In this fallen and hostile world, freedom is more than threatened; it is accosted. Freedom is something we have, but freedom is also something we must fight for. You have to own something before you can protect it.

Freedom is the objective of the Christ follower, the kingdom man. Freedom is what good kings enjoy, offer, and defend. And freedom is the reason Jesus came. Quoting the prophet Isaiah, Jesus described his mission:

“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free.” (Luke 4:18)

Jesus paid a great price to fulfill that prophecy and obtain our freedom. Life with God is to be lived free.

It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. (Galatians 5:1)

King Me

King Me

Every man has a kingdom. Not every king rules well.

You can.

Like a living piece in life's checker game, you are moving across the board toward your time of greatest authority and impact. But what kind of king will you be?

Your kingdom is always being watched, and your family and core relationships look to you to come through. You have an ancient adversary who is playing for keeps. You also have a fiercely loving Advocate who desires to guide you, teach you, and entrust you with more.

In King Me, Michael Thompson guides you through the six stages of the masculine journey in order to release you forward, oriented and equipped. Continuing beyond where The Heart of a Warrior left off, Michael kindly and wisely invites you to uncover your story, see the wounds of your past, and be initiated into the glory in your heart. Through healing encounters and validating experiences with God, you can learn to wield love as your greatest Kingdom weapon and provide a kingdom where hearts are free.

You are invited to become a man after God's own heart. You are always one move away from becoming more and advancing goodness, or becoming less and compromising your kingdom.

It's your move.
