In times of fatigue and struggle, we can trust that Jesus sees our challenges from afar and will always arrive in time to offer comfort, rescue, and calm the storms in our lives.

Our discipleship is a process that leads to becoming more and more like Jesus so that our witness is a more clear reflection of God to others.

The essence of Job’s words is this: whatever you are facing today is not the end. Whatever the obstacles, whatever the health crisis, whatever the financial mess, however damaged the relationship, however high the mountain to climb, whatever we face currently, is not the end of our story.

We should always pray and never lose heart because God has already demonstrated his faithfulness to us over and over again.

Greatness equals servanthood in the kingdom of God. Being first is not and is never the goal.

Jesus doesn't need us to perform his miracles. He just needs our courage and our obedience.

The gospel is born and bathed in mystery. At Christmas, let’s not take the wonder for granted.

When we think of WWE, we easily associate The Rock with someone strong. The term applies to the one who saves us, but then the Bible uses a far different word for him, too.

What the world desperately needs to see is the church in full bloom living out the ways of Jesus that he taught us in the Gospels.

“Jesus said that when a disciple is fully trained he will be like his teacher. I don’t know about you but I am not fully there yet. I know a lot of Scripture. But if our ultimate guide and teacher is Jesus, then I have a long way to go.”

What an amazing Savior and King we have! We can sing “What a Friend We Have in Jesus” and sense his closeness or listen to “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God” and imagine the strength and power of Almighty God.

A favorite post from our archives, this one from October 2021.

“For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is blameless toward him.”

Again and again, Jesus teaches us not to give up, to trust God’s timing, and to keep on praying.

Why did Jesus make such an astonishing statement? And how was it a preview of the marvelous gift he is to us?

Jesus preached, and the crowds responded warmly. But those who claimed to know God best responded out of anger and fear.

These three words have stirred emotions since the time of Jesus, which is exactly why we still need to think about them today.

The Pharisees tried to trap Jesus, and sometimes we do too—for sadly similar reasons.

Before we consider this story and give up on our own faith, we need to read more carefully and think more clearly.

Would we be embarrassed for others to know this is the question we’re most asking about ourselves?
