Christian faith grows when people hear the true message of Jesus Christ. The gospel is the good news that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, rose again, and offers salvation to all who believe in Him (1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Romans 10:9–10). Paul said, “Faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ” (Romans 10:17). If the gospel…
We are living in a time when many nations are facing trouble, confusion, and division. It can feel like the world has lost its way. But before we only look at what is wrong around us, we must also look within. God’s Word says, “Consider your ways” (Haggai 1:5–7). This is a call to stop, think, and ask ourselves, “Are…
God is not calling us to be merely right. He is calling us to be righteous. “That Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love…” (Ephesians 3:17) Being right can win an argument, but being righteous reflects Jesus. God wants more than correct words from us. He wants hearts that are surrendered,…
“Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” (Jeremiah 33:3) This is one of my favorite scriptures because it reminds me that God is not silent. He invites us to call on Him. He wants us to come close, ask, listen, and trust that He will answer in His…
Jesus said, “If anyone is willing to do His will, he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I speak from Myself” (John 7:17). In plain words, Jesus is saying that the person who truly wants to obey God will begin to recognize God’s truth. Understanding does not come only from studying more, arguing better, or having…
Let’s be honest: none of us can follow Jesus well by ourselves. We all need God’s help, and we also need people around us who care enough to tell us the truth. That is where accountability comes in. Accountability simply means having people in our lives who help us stay honest, humble, and faithful. The Bible reminds us in Romans…
God loves people, and He does not want us to live confused, misled, or spiritually weak. He wants us to know Him, trust Him, and stand strong in His truth. When we do not grow in the knowledge of God and His Word, it can become easier to believe what people say more than what God says. The Bible gives…
How did hate become so ordinary in a country that says it follows Jesus Christ? How did anger, fear, pride, and division become louder than the words of the Savior who told us to love even our enemies? Jesus said, “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:44). He also said that people would know His…
The church and the nation are both in a serious place. Many people have moved away from what is right. We have become too comfortable with sin, too proud in our own ways, and too slow to listen to God. The church is supposed to be a light, but too often we have acted like the world. We have chased…
