PROACTIVE VERSES REACTIVE

I really enjoyed this article by Hannah Brencher and I want to share it with you! Before we move full steam ahead into the holidays, I want to show up with a simple reminder for you and me: This year isn’t over yet. It’s not time to throw in the towel. There is still a […]

ACCEPTANCE

I love the fact that God has promised to never reject anyone who comes to Him. Yes, this is a promise from God. You may think that my behavior is not acceptable, but God makes us acceptable “in Him,” meaning in Jesus Christ. If you have faith in Jesus, you are considered to be “in […]

Guarding Your Soul This Christmas. By Chuck Allen

I love this time of year, or at least I’ve convinced myself that I do. I often think that I reminisce of how I’d like to remember Christmas more than I actually love this most wonderful time of the year. With the kids jingle-belling and everyone telling you be of good cheer, well that’s just […]

Thanks-Living

While many associate Thanksgiving Day with family, stretchy pants, football and shopping, let it propel us toward a heart of gratitude. It is a time to consider God’s goodness, grace, and provision for us. He is the Author of encouragement, help, and hope. I like to think of Thanksgiving as trust-giving and thanks-living. Thanksgiving should […]

Choose Better not Bitter

Bitter or Better? It’s all about your perspective. A Romans 8:28 lifestyle challenges you to see your problems through the lens of God’s Word.

Will not be Shaken!

Some days my life can be so full of challenges and demands. I seek the Lord for wisdom because He knows what to do and how to best handle them. I refuse to retreat or to be overwhelmed by the weight of it all. I turn to the Lord and ask Him to hold me […]

Women and Jesus

June 10, 2022
by Debbie McGrath

Jesus not only knew Mary Magdalene’s name, he knew everthing about her. He remembered the day he had cast the demons out of her. He remembered her many practical kindnesses. He saw how she suffered with him as she watched him die on the cross. Just as Jesus knews the intimate details of Mary’s life, […]

When God Seems Distant

WHEN LIFE IS TOUGH, it’s easy to think, Where is God in all this? Even the psalmists had ties when it seemed God was a million miles away, and they didn’t hesitate to tell Him so, as Psalm 22:1 reads: My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? Why are you so far away […]

Lean In

There are many ways to describe yourself. Many times we describe ourselves by what we have done, or who we know or by our occupation. But when you read the Gospel of John, John the author describes himself as someone who is loved by Jesus and he also says, I am the one who leaned […]
