God Is With Us
For many, Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. In the busyness of all the celebrations, we are in danger of missing the most crucial part—Jesus.
Matthew
Don’t Get on the Enemy’s Payroll
Some people are so defiant about accepting Jesus’ power that they seek to frame His good works as evil deeds. You can say you are against the devil, but if you attempt to thwart the one who came to defeat him, you might have mistakenly changed sides.
Jesus Came to Thwart the Enemy
Humanity has an enemy who seeks to keep us from God. Jesus came to earth to push back such dangerous opposition and offer us the freedom we need.
Stay Ready
We don’t know when Jesus will return, but that doesn’t deny the certainty of it happening. To make the most of our lives, we must stay ready.
If Your Spouse Isn’t Trying
Many people feel stuck in a marriage that they seek to improve, only to be met with resistance or complacency from a spouse. While a healthy marriage depends on two people putting in the effort, you might have to resort to an individual strategy.
Don’t Twist Theology Like the Devil
When God doesn’t behave how we expect or allow what we hope, we desire to make Him more like us. We do not want a God that always agrees with us.
Addressing Anxiety
Everyone suffers from some level of anxiety in their lives. Discover what Scripture clarifies to address our feelings when we are overwhelmed.
Don’t Drop the Missional Baton
Once the disciples saw that Jesus’ tomb was empty, they altered everything to share that news with others. They successfully got that news to us, but will we take the baton and pass it to others?
Jesus Didn’t Build the Church on Our Opinions
You can be sincere in your beliefs about God and still be sincerely wrong. If your thoughts about God don’t match His revelation about Himself, then you are misguided.
“You Be You” Is Horrible Advice
We live in a world that encourages you to be you; the phrase implies that you should just live however you want. In all honesty, I can’t think of a more dangerous set of instructions to incorporate as you try to succeed at what God has called you to do.
