What we think about when we think about something affects how we feel about it. What do you think about when you think about God? What’s your “God filter”?

The best way to predict your future is to pay attention to where you’re headed. But sometimes it’s easy to get distracted by what’s on the path. The appeal of money, acceptance, or security can lower your defenses and lead you away from the path you want to be on. So is there a way back? How do we change course when we realize that we’ve chosen a path that leads us to what’s appealing instead of what’s ultimately satisfying?

We all start out life with great intentions. But our intentions aren’t good indicators of our destinations. In fact, our direction trumps our intention every time. That’s why we all need to follow someone we trust. Someone who can make our lives better and make us better at life. So we all have a decision to make. If not Jesus, then who? And if not Christianity, then what?

Nobody gets lost on purpose. But we often find ourselves in places we never intended. If there’s a disconnect between what you hope to be true in the future and the direction you’re headed now, maybe it’s time to take a closer look at your path. Our direction, not our intention, will determine our destination.

We’re all going to end up somewhere in life, but often there’s a disconnect between where we want to end up and the path we choose. So how can we avoid choosing a path that’s guaranteed to get us where we don’t want to be?

We all believe exercise is good for us, but we don't always head to the gym or go on a run. To actually get in shape, we have to exercise. We have to get off the couch and do it. And isn't it easier when we have someone to keep us accountable? The same is true of our faith—we can only get so far on our own.

We all have wish lists. But what if there are some wishes that, if we keep front and center, will make our lives better, our relationships richer and our faith journeys more exciting?

In the world around us, there are many voices that claim to represent what it looks like to follow God. Many of us have at one time felt the pressure from such a voice that reduced the Christian life to adherence to a set of rules. What if following Jesus has more to do with our posture than our performance?

The voices that speak into our lives are both internal and external. Our inner voices can cause us to get stuck in our circumstances, but there is a different path. This interview with Kyle highlights how he has chosen to approach his trials with hope and perseverance—and it will inspire you to do the same.

We construct lives that look amazing on the outside, but we’re rotting on the inside. Keeping up appearances is exhausting. It leaves us longing for more. We need to be rooted and established to truly experience the fullness of God.
