Walking On Eggshells
Anger erodes trust and destroys families. While anger itself may be a natural defense mechanism, what we do with our anger is often sinful and harmful. We justify our unchecked anger even as it consumes us, damaging relationships and our own he...
Solid Ground
Relationships will always get tested, and for that reason they need to be strengthened. Like a house going through a storm, when the wind and rain hit, what matters most is the foundation it is built on. In difficult seasons it is not about the...
Making God Who We Want Him to Be
Are you worshiping God or a version of God you’ve made for yourself? We might not blatantly turn away from God, but we subtly try to turn him into something he’s not. We reshape him to fit our personal preferences, treating him as a genie...
Rest for the Weary
Most of us are too busy and trying to do too much. We never have enough time…or do we? God has given us all of the time we need to do what he calls us to do. The Sabbath is God’s invitation to stop striving and rediscover rest, not as a burden ...
So Close, Yet So Far
You were created to know God. At the deepest level, we spend our lives trying and failing to make ourselves acceptable to him. The Law reveals the reason for our separation: sinful hearts that keep us standing at a distance from a holy Go...
Winning the Fight Against Sin
Many Christians don’t experience the new and abundant life God promises us in Christ. We’ve been set free from this sinful world, but we still need to fight battles against the sin within our own hearts. It’s time to engage the fight, not in ou...
God in the Wilderness
Despite crossing the Red Sea and experiencing freedom from slavery, the people of God struggle to trust Him. They doubt and grumble throughout their journey in the wilderness. God’s character and power are on full display as He meets their need...
No Turning Back
The enemy won’t let us go without a fight. Even as the world and our old life of sin pursue us, we’re called to stand firm, trust God, and move forward in faith as He makes a way where there seems to be none. Following Jesus means there’s no go...
Made for More
Many of us are living a life we never really wanted for ourselves. We don’t realize we were made for more than dead relationships, dead dreams and dead ends. Jesus is alive and he’s calling us by name, wanting us to experience the resurrection ...
God's Power on Full Display
It’s easy to grow comfortable and casual in our relationship with God. We focus so much on his love and grace that we lose sight of his power and authority over our lives and over all creation. Through the plagues, God showed his complete supre...
Don't Let Your Heart Be Hardened
Have you closed yourself off to God? Sin slowly callouses our hearts, numbing us to truth, conviction, and the goodness of the Gospel until we grow indifferent to the things of God. But repentance breaks up that hardness, restoring a responsive...
The Price of Obedience
We often hope that following God will make life easier. But the Bible shows the opposite. Obedience does not guarantee comfort. The good news is that God meets us right in the middle of it. In Exodus 6, when everything feels like it is falling ...
No More Excuses
Billions of people in this world still live as slaves to sin, addiction and the futile pursuit of everything this dying world has to offer. God’s plan to rescue these people is simple: You. He’s calling you to set the excuses aside and to boldl...
Discovering God's Call on your Life
God’s extraordinary calling on our lives is often revealed in the ordinary seasons of life. We hear from him when we turn aside from our own plans and give him an opportunity to speak. Ultimately, our calling isn’t about us, but about joining t...
What is God Doing?
God often works through unsettling and confusing circumstances to accomplish his purposes. In the middle of suffering and injustice, God is preparing a deliverer, but not through the means we would expect. While we look for a perfect hero to ar...
Abortion and the Deception of Dehumanization
The ultimate goal of the devil is the death of God’s image-bearers. One of the primary ways he accomplishes this goal is through the deception of dehumanization. We see this deception play out in our country today through the mass infanti...
Slave to the World or Child of God?
We make ourselves slaves to many things in life - from relationships and work to our schedule and addictions. The story of God's people and their deliverance from Egypt reminds us God has given us the Way out. We don't need to live as slaves to...
Empowered for Mission
Jesus followers have been empowered for mission. God has given you personal spheres of influence: your family, church, workplace, school campus, neighborhood, and more. You have access to a unique combination of people that nobody else does, an...
Equipped for Ministry
To be like Jesus means being a servant of all. This isn’t easy in a culture of consumerism where we’re always catered to as the customer. While most expect to have everything done for them, we’re called to do things for others and to use what G...
Be The Church You're Looking For
It’s easy to notice the gap between the kind of community we see in the early church and what church life often looks like today. So how do we actually build the kind of Christian community we’d want to be part of? What does each of us need to ...
Engaged in Community
How do others know we’re followers of Jesus? Some might say our biblical values, our politics, or even church attendance. But Jesus clearly tells us the world will know we’re his disciples when we love each other the way he loves us. The journe...
Becoming a Disciple of Jesus
Impact's mission is to make disciples who live and love like Jesus. He's calling us to follow him every day, to emulate who he is and imitate what he does. To be a Christ-disciple means to become Christ-like. Are you more like him today than yo...
Finding Peace in the Storm
Storms in life are unpredictable and inevitable, no matter how much we try to avoid them. When life gets overwhelming, it’s important to remember everything Jesus has already done and remind ourselves of what he’s called us to do. As long as he...
