Christmas is so much more than a holiday. It’s a chance to remember the good news of great joy that our Savior has come. No matter what we’ve done or what we’re going through, we have nothing to fear because God is with us. Merry Christmas!

God’s calling on our lives can feel overwhelming. Whether it’s sharing our faith, trusting Him in an uncertain situation, or stepping into a new place of service, it’s natural to worry about what might go wrong or to feel unqualified. Mary show...

 Fear is everywhere. Anxiety disorders are the most common mental-health struggle in America, and many of us live with worries we can’t simply avoid, from health and finances to politics and personal disappointment. Fear steals our joy, ro...

 Do our actions match our words? It’s one thing to tell the truth, but when our actions doesn’t line up with what we’ve said, our words lose weight. Over time, that inconsistency erodes the trust we’ve worked hard to build.

Can people take you at your word? Too often, we’re quick to give our word, but slow to keep it. As followers of Jesus, we’re called to a kind of integrity where our “yes” or “no” carries so much weight that swearing becomes unnecessary, because...

Why do we lie? Ultimately deception is rooted in self interest. We lie to make people think we're something we’re not, and we lie to keep people from knowing who we really are. As a result, we're never really known or trusted and our lives beco...

Everybody lies. From fake news to fake people, lying is so common in our world that it’s hard to know who to trust or what to believe anymore. And it all started with a snake in a garden. As Christians, we’re called to be people of truth, not j...

Jesus is enough. If we’re not careful, we can easily trade grace for judgment, and the gospel for self-made religion. We spend our lives trying to earn what Jesus has already freely given. Let’s leave behind pride, shame, and performance and co...

The gospel is the best news we could ever receive. In Jesus, we have been given new life, true joy, and a reason to be thankful. His grace changes everything. The question is, are we actively experiencing it? 

Paul embraced pain and suffering so that others could gain by knowing and growing in Christ. Why don’t we do the same? Maybe it's because we’re unwilling to even be inconvenienced or uncomfortable, let alone suffer like he did. But every friend...
