What are you facing right now? Does this week have you in a funk? Are you currently feeling worn out, discouraged, or exhausted? Do you find yourself struggling in sin? Are you at a breaking point? Whatever your current situation looks like, there is a verse in 2 Timothy that I believe can be foundational […]
You are probably familiar with the popular W.W.J.D. bracelets. They have been out for years and are an acronym for “What would Jesus do?” The idea behind the bracelets is a powerful one. I used to wear a navy blue W.W.J.D. bracelet for years until it literally became caked full of gunk and was nearly […]
We have talked a lot about the gospel lately. We have learned about grace, faith, works, and how it all fits together. In light of that, I thought it would be helpful to talk about what a Christian should actually look like. So, for the next 13 days I want to walk through a daily […]
Last week, we confirmed that a person is saved, made right with God, only by grace through faith. Our works, our best efforts, play no part in us being saved. We also talked about how James tells us in James 2, that “faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.” I hope […]

The last verse in the Bible is a profound one. Have you ever thought about that? God has given us His Word, 66 books in all. The Bible is a large book, with life-changing truth on every page, but have you ever considered what God has left us with on the last page? I think […]
Have you ever simply opened your Bible to a random page and started reading on that page? I have had some great times with the Lord doing that! After reading what I planned on reading the other day, I decided to flip my Bible open to see what treasures I could find. Oh, what treasure […]
“Before a word is on my tongue you, LORD, know it completely.” (Psalm 139:4) Think with me for a second. God knows you completely, and yet He still loves you completely. No evil or sinful atom in your body is hidden in the sight of God. He knows it all, and that truth does not […]
