Uncover the deeper meaning behind the preparation and labor involved in reaping a spiritual harvest, drawing parallels from John 4:34-38.

Do you believe in Jesus? And if you believe, are you following Him? It’s time to take that step.

There are Hogs fans, and then there are Hogs fans. IYKYK Ok, let me explain. The hogs stink. They’ve stunk […]

Join the reflection on John 2:11 and learn how every miracle, including salvation, serves the purpose of revealing Christ’s glory.

God doesn’t give us what is good; He gives us what is best. Discover the importance of trusting God’s perfect timing.

The same power that brought forth Jesus from the dead resides in us. May we walk each day trusting He can flip our scripts in life and amaze us with His love and grace and mercy.

Do you know this man, the very Son of the Living God? Do you know Jesus Christ? Not just a knowledge of Him, but an intimate relationship, a surrender of your will to Him?

Today, let’s turn from the things of this world and turn to our Creator. The One who offers true peace, freedom and love.

Jesus. The sweetest name I know.

What did it take for you to believe and become His witness?

Whatever you’re going through or waiting for, I promise you, God is at work! He doesn’t waste time. The Lord almighty is in control and time is in His hands. Trust Him.

Are we still begging to be close to Him, found on our knees in prayer? Or are we now at a distance, watching to see what unfolds next?

Jesus is the Prince of Peace. With Him we have nothing to fear. Without Him, we have no hope.

It may be that God wants you to be satisfied with Him, the giver of great blessings, before getting the blessing. It may be that He is getting you ready to experience Him in a whole new way. A fiery sort of way.

Like Jesus did often, take time to get away and pray. Seek the Lord’s wisdom and ask for discernment in this situation. Study His Word and live it out. You know who wins in the end.

Like the pressure of the earth creating diamonds out of carbon deposits, God is creating something beautiful out of you. It doesn’t make the trial or the storm any easier. But knowing God is at work is comforting in the midst.

Today, let’s allow the Lord to shine His truth into our lives, searching our intent and refocus on what’s really important.

Like my avocado aversion, we can live our whole lives seeing God from a distance, never truly experiencing Him. We can miss out on incredible moments of God because we’re too afraid of letting go of our life preservers and getting out of our safety boats.

Fearing God isn’t being afraid of Him – it’s being scared of living life without Him.

Jesus has invited all of us to the table. Will you come?

If God has saved you, you have been brought into His marvelous light, as the scripture says. You have been changed! And it’s time to celebrate!

We are not worthy on our own. We need Jesus.

God’s Word is worthy, withstands the pressure of change, and it’s an eternal commitment. If God says it, I believe it.

Jesus never promised the road would be easy as His follower. In fact, time and time again, He pointed out how hard it would be. But the rewards far outweigh the risk.

Our motive for following Jesus matters.

God chases us down our whole lives to remind us not only does He love us, but out of the fullness of this love, He can do the impossible. He’s a God after our own hearts.

He has sought you ought. You are worth saving. He loves you! Will you accept His offer today? Answer His call and live!

By God’s grace, we are to “cut off” the things in our lives that do not honor Him.

Jesus loves you and He will never let you go.

Holiness is still a thing that we aspire for, friends. And while we will always fall short, we can grow more sanctified in the process.

In all things, the Lord has heard my cries and answered my prayers. Some are still waiting for answers, but while I wait, I pray, continuing to bring that to the Lord and trust that He will answer it, in His time.

We will know when Jesus returns. There will be no doubt. All will be able to see.

His blessings are so sweet.

Deep down we’ve all imagined the water-walking experience. But, sadly, we tend to merely dangle our toes in the shallows.

Oh friends, when we struggle knowing ourselves, our purpose, what’s going on in our lives, may we rely upon who God is and His promises.

There will always be an enemy who seeks to destroy your testimony and work for the Lord. Don’t lose focus. Keep working for Him and respond accordingly.

Let Him open the door to the darkest parts of your heart that you hide from the rest of the world. Let Him cleanse you from within.

The cure for spiritual amnesia is daily doses of turning to Jesus.

Let’s put our focus on Christ and let His light shine within us and around us, guiding us throughout our day.

The Pharisees were too stuck on the law and themselves to truly see Jesus. Will you?

God meets us in our brokenness.

To reflect Jesus’ image and to testify of His attributes is to choose to be vulnerable, devoted, and authentic.

Be reminded that more life-changing than s’mores, hayrides, and cider is the captivating life of abundance in choosing Christ.

When God tests our faith, or when He tells us to test our faith, it is for the purpose of giving us assurance and revealing the truth.

Is it a fight to follow God? You bet. But, as we see with Elijah, it’s worth the fight. It’s when God shows up and does the impossible.

We too can go to Jesus and beg for His help just as the disciples did, but we must have faith that He is in control.

It can be so easy to get frustrated when we are different from others, but our differences can be opportunities for God to be even bigger in our lives

God is not looking merely for human improvement, He wants a commitment of surrender; one that will be more than reactions to commands and more like responses His love.

Our goal should never be for others to simply follow us, but to follow us in pursuing Jesus!

King Asa’s story shows us that when we have a heart to get to know God, we will find Him!
