In a culture that promotes cutting people off, what does Scripture say about honoring family?

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we explore Proverbs 17:17 and Exodus 20:12 and what the Bible teaches about family relationships.

While “no contact” and “low contact” relationships are trending, Scripture calls believers to honor the roles God established in families. That doesn’t eliminate healthy boundaries in extreme situations — but it challenges us to evaluate whether we’re responding biblically or culturally.

Money isn’t the enemy — but the love of it can quietly damage the heart.

There’s nothing wrong with having resources. But Scripture warns us about loving them more than God.

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on 1 Timothy 6:9–10 and why the condition of our hearts matters more than the size of our bank accounts.

When money becomes our security, identity, or comfort, it can amplify what’s broken inside. But when God is first, resources become tools — not masters.

Your Perspective Shapes Your Life — Luke 6:45 — Feb 19, 2026

What’s in your heart is shaping how you see—and how you respond.

Perspective doesn’t begin with circumstances—it begins in the heart.

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on Luke 6:45 and how our hearts shape our perspective—and our perspective shapes our actions.

Scripture shows us that fear-filled perspectives can keep us stuck, while faith-filled perspectives move us forward. When we examine what’s in our hearts, God can realign how we see and how we live.
