Welcome to Kindling Publications!
Does your heart burn with knowing that the Lord Jesus is seeking a bride for Himself—one who is "holy and blameless" and "without spot or wrinkle or any such thing," who will correspond to Him in all things? Having her is the very eternal purpose He has been carrying out from the beginning of creation right up to this very moment, and He will continue His pursuit of her until the end of this present age (Eph. 5:22-33).
This bride of Christ—"the
wife of the Lamb," the holy city, New Jerusalem—will be made
up of His faithful people from throughout the ages who have wholeheartedly
and unashamedly given up everything to
daily follow Him in faith during their
time upon the earth. With this in view, the articles, audio teaching,
and worship songs given through Kindling Publications are specifically
offered with His eternal purpose in view in order to help you in running
your race and being made ready for our glorious Bridegroom, the Lord
Jesus. Here you will find encouragement for things like:
-
Looking only to the Lord Jesus as Source
- Seeing and entering the kingdom of God
- Aiming our "arrows" (children—Ps. 127:3-5) well
- Gathering together under Jesus' Headship and making a place for Him among us
- Instilling real depth for the Lord Jesus in our children
- Learning and teaching contentment
- Establishing strong marriages that are a reflection of Jesus and His bride
- Having rich heart-connectedness continuously in the home
- Preparing for the Lord's return
- Overcoming the world's temptations, influences, and snares
- Experiencing Jesus' life all of the time regardless of circumstances
- Increasing our capacities for abiding in Jesus and being led by the Holy Spirit
- Walking uprightly in matters of work and everyday life
Jesus is calling you! Wherever in life you find yourself, He is calling you now: "Come, follow Me." Do you hear Him? Do you see Him by faith? Do you find Him of greater value than whatever you have going on... and even your own life? Are you saying "Yes!" to Him and the leadings of His Spirit with all your heart in your every moment? By your life—your choices, words, actions, and deeds—do you "confess that you are a stranger and exile on the earth" because, like Abraham, you are "looking for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God" (Heb. 11:8-16)? The invitation is to all, but these are the "true worshipers" He is seeking (John 4:20-26).

Maybe you have never heard these things but your heart leaps as you read this and you want to know more. Perhaps you are a seasoned, faithful saint and you simply need some fresh encouragement. Or likely you are somewhere in the process. Wherever we find ourselves, the Holy Spirit wants to touch (sanctify) every part of our lives so that we might "grow up in all aspects into Him, who is the Head, even Christ"...and radiate His life and light and love and liberty, expressing "the fragrance of Christ" in every facet of our life together and walk with Him. So
please browse around and dig in! You will find free access to
all of our articles—including all the ones written by
my precious wife, Maranatha, to encourage godly women—as
well as information about all of the audio teaching, worship
music, and homeschooling materials we have available. Also,
don't forget to bookmark this page and come back from time to
