At the beginning of time, God created light. And from that moment on, He has been and always will be the light of the world. Light makes things clear; light exposes, it guides, it reveals, and it penetrates. AND light is always stronger than the darkness. At the end of time, when we’re with the King in eternity, we’re told there will be no need for…

What has been holding you back in life? Are there old habits, old ways of thinking, things that you just return to over and over that you know are weighing down your life? 1 Corinthians says… When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things. I want to challenge you today to let go of th…

God is not just a good idea... a better way to live. God isn't just offering a list of principles or moral values. God isn't an add-on to your disciplined life or your perseverance. His way, His rule, His lordship are everything.Romans 3 tells us that "ALL (of us) have sinned and fall short of God's glory." That means we all fall short of His stand…

Just like cleaning out and getting rid of old clothes, do the same with old ha…

Another Christmas has come and gone. Maybe you’re still cleaning up the mess from your family celebrations. Or maybe you’re wishing things had gone a little differently.

We can’t see the wind, but we see the effects and the impact of the wind. We weren’t in Bethlehem when the King was born. We didn't see a mother labor and deliver a tiny baby- The ONE who would be Messiah, King of the world. We didn't see thousands and thousands of angels singing, “Glory to God in the highest!” But thousands of years later, we see …

This Christmas, I hope you feel the love and guiding presence of Jesus. As we celebrate the miracle of His birth—God in human form—let’s remember that He was not only born to be the Savior of the world. He came to be a shepherd to His people- to you and to me. In Matthew 2, the priests reported this ancient prophecy, terrifying the evil king who wa…

How is it that the God of the universe became so small? He entered the world as a tiny baby. What a miracle! Dependent, needy, vulnerable… The creator of all lowered Himself to come. What kind of King would do this? He is a King who had nothing to prove, who simply made a way through this act of humility and obedience, sacrifice and suffering. God …

Christmas is a season of miracles and expectation. The birth of Jesus was not a complete surprise to the Jewish people; they’d been waiting for a savior to come for a long time. They’d heard about Him long before in a scroll written by the prophet Isaiah. …the Lord himself will give you the sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will giv…

The Christmas season can be so busy and stressful. Will you take a moment to hold still right now? Take a deep breath.

Consider this your personal permission to pause from the hurried pace and …

God is a rock- unmoving, stable, secure, a shelter, a refuge, a place of stability and safety. Not a mountain far off in the distance, looming and unreachable or unscalable. But a place of power available to every one of us. Over and over again, the Psalmists in the Old Testament, cry out to God. And they say, My God, my rock, will you help me? You…

Jesus tells us that life in Him is like having living water in your soul. Have you seen the way that water flows? It’s amazing! Always finds a way, a path, an avenue to move. It fills every space, and when the space is full, it finds more space until it eventually overflows. This is the promise Jesus offers to you; it’s so beautiful! He says: If yo…

Do you have peace in your heart? Deep peace that stays steady even when things are going badly? Long ago on the first Christmas, a group of angels announced the birth of Jesus to a group of shepherds watching their flocks one night. Luke 2 in the Message version of the Bible says…At once the angel was joined by a huge angelic choir singing God’s pr…

In the story of the first Christmas in the Bible, there are many signs and wonders showing people who Jesus is and where they can find Him: A star, a choir of angels, the prophets of old, miracles, healing, and deliverance. All these things displayed the truth—that Jesus was God, and had come to save humanity. But who will proclaim the truth of Jes…

Have you ever wanted to share the Good News of Jesus but didn’t feel like you had the right words? We do not need to rely on eloquence. We can just tell what He’s done for us. The first ones to share the Gospel were a bunch of young shepherds. Most likely, children, dirty from tending sheep. An angel woke them up and told them, “Good News, a Savior…

Our failures don't change God. Do you remember the story of Jesus and His disciples at the Last Supper? Right before He went to the cross? Jesus tells His friends that that night, all of them would fall away...Peter boldly says, "Never, Lord!" But sure enough, as Jesus was taken before the leaders, Peter denies Jesus three times. He says, "I do not…

Who was the first to announce the birth of Jesus? Actually, it was a star. As the Bible tells the story, a group of wise men, they’d been watching for a star that would signal the birth of the Messiah.

Did you know that Jesus foretold His own death? Often we think of Jesus dying on the cross as a tragedy, and we may even think it was cruel that God would let that happen. But no…Jesus knew this was His destiny, and He walked into it intentionally and willingly. Jesus said this about Himself, drawing from ancient prophecy: “The Son of Man must suff…

God is a gift- Something someone intended for another. A gift is given, not bought. A gift isn't worked for, and a gift isn't forced; it's simply given and received.

Have you ever wondered, “Why would God send His son, Jesus, into the world only to be executed on the cross?” It doesn’t sound like something a good father would do. But it was a plan that was made long ago. And Jesus came into the world willingly, to offer Himself as a sacrifice. Listen to the words of John 3:16… "For this is the way God loved the…

The story of all life is told through the Bible. Most stories are written by human authors, but the story of our world was written by God. It’s a true story—the Bible!

Have you noticed that almost every movie and song is about love? From the beginning of time, God told us it is not good to be alone, but pain and suffering come when that person lets us down, when they aren’t who we thought they would be.

Psalm 46:10 says this: Be still, and know that I am God! What does it mean to be still? In our current culture of more, more, faster, faster, it can feel very strange to just sit still.

We can so easily believe the lie that God is a taker, not a giver, especially when pain walks through our door, or grief, or disappointment.

Where do the good things in your life come from? You may think that the good things in your life happened as a result of your hard work and dedication.

What is the kingdom of God? There are so many different ways to describe it. But most of all, it is a place that lives in people—those who choose to love God the way God loves and follow His ways.

It was only when I looked outside of myself, when I saw…

Recently, I heard someone say, “I just need to have ‘blind faith’.” Is faith blind, though? No! Faith is actually the opposite. Faith is looking and seeing, thinking, and considering. And then acting on what you see and know, and understand. The Greek word for faith means: assurance, belief, persuasion. Are you being called by God to act in faith? …

Some of us hold back from sharing Jesus because we assume that if we share the Good News, we are obligated to point out and correct all the sin in the person’s life. But we all have sin in our lives, don’t we? We don’t want to minimize or sugar-coat it. But God deals with our sins gently and kindly and reveals Himself to people through His kindness…

Do you believe the lie that if you're good God will love you? It’s human nature to feel more lovable if we feel better about ourselves.

Romans 5 tells us that when we were sinners He die…

We don’t have to let our differences exclude people from feeling welcomed into the family of God. Some people associate Christianity with certain political views or what they might have to give up.

A major issue that can hold us back from sharing our faith is when the vibrancy of our own relationship with God begins to wane.
