There are moments when the Christian life can feel too hard for us. We want to stay close to Jesus, but we know our own weakness. We remember the times we have drifted, failed, worried, doubted, or tried to carry life in our own strength. And if we are not careful, we may begin to think that abiding in Christ…
Jesus said, “I am the vine, ye are the branches.” In simple words, He is telling us that we were never meant to live the Christian life on our own. Just like a branch cannot stay alive, grow, or bear fruit unless it stays connected to the vine, we cannot grow spiritually unless we stay connected to Jesus. A branch…
The book of Romans explains the gospel in a clear and powerful way. In simple words, the gospel is the good news that God saves guilty sinners through faith in Jesus Christ.

Have you ever felt like God was moving in your life faster than you could explain—opening some doors, closing others, and stirring your heart to pay attention? I have. In seasons like that, I have learned that I do not just need answers…
