Matthew's gospel presents Jesus as the One True King, the Sovereign over all. Will you follow Him, or will you give your allegiance to another? Will you follow Him, or will you choose to rule over your own life? He promises us fullness of life, a life that can be found in no other.

The gift of eternal life outshines every other gift because it meets our most desperate needs, it satisfies us forever and came to us at infinite cost.

Mary and Joseph were a common, ordinary couple, who had a baby in a small town called Bethlehem. From a human perspective, Jesus' birth was inconsequential and unremarkable. But God often chooses ordinary people, just like you and me, in ordinary places, just like where we live, to accomplish extraordinary work.

Major events seem to push us toward fear or faith. The 2016 Presidential election is no exception. Church, let's get some perspective here. God's got this, so we can rest in His sovereignty. He also made us in His image so that we can take action -
vote, serve, sacrifice, live out your faith. Let's be salt and light as we bring the hope of Jesus to a broken world.

You were created by God for a purpose. You have been redeemed by God for a purpose. God has a ministry specifically designed for you. Find it and fulfill it!

The Word of God is true. It is trustworthy. Learn it, love it, and let it transform your life.

Every Christian feels inadequate in prayer. EVERY! SINGLE! CHRISTIAN! So don't feel paralyzed by guilt. Instead, learn to pray better and bigger from the Greatest Pray-er ever, Jesus Christ.

We live in dark times, and we should expect them to only get darker. Prepare for persecution, and pray for our brothers and sisters around the world who are suffering today for their faith in Jesus Christ.

Each and every one of us has been uniquely created by God to be useful to God's Kingdom and pleasing to our heavenly Father. Put aside the things that are hindering you, and pursue holiness with others who long for God's best.
