Twice a year we ask you to prayerfully consider supporting Positive Christianity. We are entering our 23th year of service providing daily written, and video prayer, Positive Daily Inspiration and Positive Written Sermons.

Thinking about making a charitable contribution? It benefits you more in 2022 than next year.

With the recent changes in the tax code, financial experts are saying it will benefit you more to make a charitable donation you are considering instead of putting it off. After January 1, under the new tax code, your charitable tax benefits may decrease.

DONATION: To make a donation credited to this calendar year, do so by midnight on the 31st or send us a check dated before 2022. Your thank you letter will reflect the 2022 offering date, even if we receive it at the post office after the first.

We thank our donors for making the miracles in the ministry possible!

1 Chronicles 4:10:
“Jabez called out to the God of Israel, “Oh that You would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let Your hand be with me and keep me from harm, so that it will not hurt me.” … And God granted what he asked.”

The Prayer of Jabez …

I invite you to pray this every day with meaning:

“Dear God, bless me and enlarge my territory! Let Your hand be with me and keep me from harm, so that it will not hurt me. And God please grant what I ask.”

We are conditioned as a people to think small. People actually think it is safer to think small.

God is a big thinking about you and your possibilities.

39 years ago, I actually formed Positive Christianity at a small church in Rockford Illinois in 1983. Some of the congregation didn’t understand my ideas of creating a national ministry.

I was very young and was considered by many just a dreamer.

My first effort was The Good Life Newspaper, printed at a local Rockford IL newspaper for national distribution at churches. Before we were done in 1987, we had reached a distribution of 105,000. We asked ministers from all over the country, for tapes of their sermons (yes, tapes – that was the best technology we had back then), edited them, typed them into printable form, and included them in the newspaper with their picture.

The great Minister from Detroit Michigan, Jack Boland was a regular in my newspaper, the great Minister from Chicago Illinois, The Reverend Dr. Johnnie Colemon, founder-minister of Christ Universal Temple, was a regular in my newspaper.

The wonderful Famous Amos, the cookie king, was a regular in my newspaper.

We sent churches enough newspapers free of charge to distribute to their whole congregation.

PrayerAmerica was introduced in this newspaper. We pray the same positive way today, by believing in bigger, better answers from God for you. We believe that the best, and the good from God is better than anything human mind can conceive of.

Miracles are more natural to God, than the mundane of human thought and existence. By 1986, Positive Christianity was also a local cable television show in northern Illinois, and southern Wisconsin.

We had actually talked to the USA cable television Network (now defunct) about producing a nationwide special.

I clearly remember the cost was $5000 for half an hour in 1986. That was more than I could afford at the time, but it would be an incredible bargain now. God guided me in another way. One television special with limited viewership will not help people in a lasting way. I can remember receiving guidance from God that daily help was the way to serve more people.

I was selected to be the senior minister of the world headquarters of a church organization late 1987, because of the unbelievable success of The Good Life newspaper, but a requirement was to stop all publication, and focus entirely upon their work. I loved serving in that position Since 1999, and then I was ready to begin Positive Christianity anew.

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, author of The Power of Positive Thinking, and his dear wife Ruth, were personal positive encouragement for me in the early 1990s. I have a picture of the last time I was with Dr. Peale hanging in my office. What a wonderful man, he lived large, and knew what God could do through human being.

In 1998, my idea for Positive Christianity was to produce a syndicated newspaper column for small newspapers free of charge.

Thank God – God had a bigger idea.

Sitting in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah in prayer I received guidance to do a computer ministry. I argued with this idea because I am not a tech person, did not own a computer, and did not know how to type.

In December 1999, God, and a man that did not own a computer, only a small device for on top of the TV called WebTV, started the electronic form of Positive Christianity on the World Wide Web.

I’ve never taken any credit for the success of Positive Christianity.

It’s ALL God. All I do is show up, consent, and be willing to serve a larger territory.

Positive Christianity serves over a million people of every faith, in every country of the world, we are still very unique because we do not set up any denominational boundary walls. We promote you going to the church of YOUR CHOICE and hope to help in making your faith experience richer, daily, in a God foundation positive way. We support many of those churches directly through weekly nondenominational sermons free of charge.

A salesperson knows the value of the larger territory. You must also know the value of a larger territory in your daily life.

It is human nature to want a better life, it is also human nature to put a death grip on what we know from the past, even if it has been uncomfortable at times. It takes a person of faith to walk into an unknown territory.

How big is your faith. Don’t limit yourself because God doesn’t limit you. God thinks a lot bigger than you about your future.

In years of counseling, I have observed that people looking for employment limit their territory to an extremely small area.

I have observed people that are looking for the perfect soulmate limit their territory to a small geographical circle.

If the self-created territorial boundary lines are very, very small, it is like fishing from a small almost dried-up pond.

It takes bravery to pray for God to expand your territory. Many people falsely believe they are only safe with the boundary line around them of just a few miles. Birds migrate to find food, and sometimes we must also.

Pray the prayer of Jabez tomorrow morning, and then the next morning, and then the next.

“Oh that You would bless me and enlarge my territory!

Let Your hand be with me and keep me from harm, so that it will not hurt me.”
… And God granted what he asked.”

Hopefully it will be the day that your life begins to expand, and vastly improve. I believe in living a large life.

Most of my closest friends I would’ve never met if I had not traveled to meet them. I am very grateful to God for the life that I have lived so far, it is almost unbelievable to my human mind what God has been able to do with me.

I not only have faith in God, I HAVE FAITH IN YOU. The greatest things in life you haven’t even experienced yet.

Your highest mountaintop experiences are ahead of you, not behind you. Your greatest success, finest friendships, and if you are seeking it, a loving soulmate is seeking you now. It all begins with a simple prayer prayed with feeling starting this morning.

I believe in you.

I know you can do it, because I know what God can do through you!

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, bless me and enlarge my territory! Let Your hand be with me and keep me from harm, so that it will not hurt me.” And God grant what I ask.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Thank You God!

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I decide today to live large, to expand my territory, and accept my God-given good.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “Don’t be afraid to take a big step. You can’t cross a chasm in two small jumps.”
