Because the church was unequipped, those with harmful intentions were able to find a place among the people of God and introduce doctrines of demons. Every child of God needs to guard against the thre...

Our hearts are of great importance regarding righteousness, for they are desperately wicked (Jeremiah 17:9), and we are prone to wander away from the Lord. And so, to make a solid, godly stand against...

For Christ-followers, honesty isn’t just an option; it’s non-negotiable. Scripture is clear that lying is a sin, and that sincere disciples of Jesus are committed to truth-telling. We understand that ...

“Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins and loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors to...

But let’s face it. It’s not so easy to let our lights shine in our current culture, where any truth (but especially biblical truth), is constantly mocked and challenged by lies. Indeed, there are peop...

The Christian walk is not meant to be neutral. Jesus’ way is radical. He tells his followers to take up their cross and follow him, meaning this life as a Christ follower brings a death of our old way...

I think it’s weird, sometimes, that people pay me to study the Bible. Every Christian can open God’s Word and discover truth for life, but I’m part of a group for whom Christianity is not only a relig...

According to Jude’s personalized introduction, the Christian faith is to impact us in a fitting, subjective way. Meaning, we must be able to say, “This is my truth, my faith, my Lord,” and I am c...

On the surface, the parable was just an interesting story, one that was easily understood by the listeners and based on things within their own experience. But the parable also had a deeper meaning, i...

This confidence comes in knowing that we have chosen—yes, by faith but also by evidence—to follow the almighty God for reasons that are founded, proven, and true. To find truth, one must investigate, ...

The Bible is full of people who wrestled with God, in every way, and instead of rejecting them, he met them there. The father of a demon-possessed boy in Mark 9 said, “I believe; help my unbelief!” Je...

The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead separates Christianity from all mere religion--whatever its form. Christianity without the literal, physical resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead i...

In modern English, a "fall from grace" usually refers to someone who has made a mistake and lost their credibility. But in Biblical terms, it has a much stronger connotation, hearkening back to Adam a...

Part of life as a human is strong emotions - joy, despair, fear, embarrassment. But when these emotions reach a peak, we often hear well-meaning phrases like "you just need to pray more" or ...

Choosing joy means believing what Jesus promises in John 16 – that his work to reconcile us to God will make our joy “complete.” Joy is continually filling up on faith, not just feeling happy in good ...

Many of us are breathing a sigh of relief right now. “2020 is almost over!” And while it’s true that this has been an incredibly difficult year, it’s helpful to look back at the ways we have all grown...

Jesus is the light that penetrates the darkness, and His light enables us to see everything clearly in light of Him. Why would we continue living our lives in the dark without Jesus once we know the t...

The often hokey attempts at entertaining the kids they were trying to keep around was not what kept me in the church. It was truth, community, and more than anything, a purpose and call to God’s Kingd...

Why has the Latin phrase sola fide changed so many lives?...

No one had to teach me how to lie; I was spinning the truth almost as soon as I learned to talk. It came naturally, as you can see from this funny example my mom journaled about when I was just three ...
