Alone With God

Isn’t it fascinating that amid chaos, Jesus Himself had to intentionally take time to be alone with His Father? I wonder, where could we personally invest as Christians to follow this example of Jesus in our day-to-day life?

Fixing the Unfixable

In Luke 8:26-39, we read about Jesus’ encounter with a demon-possessed man. The demon-possessed guy was someone that the world would identify as broken. How might we relate to this demon-possessed man, and what’s the lesson we should learn from Jesus’ interaction with him?

Letter

What If Jesus Wrote a Letter to You?

In Revelation chapters 2 and 3, Jesus authored letters to 7 different churches. Some churches were praised by Jesus. Some churches were criticized by Jesus. These letters reveal that Jesus is intimately aware of and deeply concerned about what is happening among His people. And it begs the question: what would Jesus say if He wrote a letter to you today?

“Behold your mother”

While Jesus hung on the cross, we’re told that his mother, Mary, a few other women, and “the disciple whom he loved” were all standing nearby. Upon seeing them, “he said to his mother, ‘Woman, behold, your son!’ Then he said to the disciple, ‘Behold, your mother!’” (John 19:26-27). In this article, we explore why Jesus assigned the care of His mother to one of His disciples and what that teaches us.

It’s Time to Celebrate

Celebration is an incredibly significant part of our society. There is something about celebration that we long for! Today, I want to challenge us: what are we doing to celebrate the salvation that we have been given through Jesus? Shouldn’t we be “praising God with a loud voice” constantly, giving Him thanks for all that he’s done for us?

Un-Paralyzed

What does it look like to abide in Jesus as one of His disciples? This isn’t an easy idea! Here’s the thing, though: getting out of a place where we are stuck isn’t easy. It takes effort, patience, and, oftentimes, pain. But, the freedom of Jesus is absolutely worth it.

Oblivious to Jesus

Jesus’ first resurrection appearance was to Mary Magdalene, but she initially didn’t even recognize Him. Why would somebody who was present for the crucifixion and burial of Jesus and a witness to the pronouncement of the angels that He was alive be oblivious to Him when He appeared?

Life Changing Words

We often use the phrase “life-changing experience” pretty loosely. But there are experiences that change who we are and the course our life is going to take. Jesus should be one of them….

The Embarrassment Saving Miracle

Throughout His ministry, Jesus performed many miracles. Some provided life-saving remedies for incurable medical conditions, some rescued people from the crippling bondage of demon possession, and some brought loved ones back from the dead. But His very first miracle was not as dire or complex as any of these. Why, then, is it so significant?
