Watching sporting competitions and meeting athletes was a dream come true for me when I attended a Summer and Winter Olympics as a young reporter. I was enthralled by hearing people from all over the world speaking in different languages and celebrating their various countries.

I’d been fascinated with the Olympics since I was a teen, but it had become an obsession. After I said yes to following God while at the Summer Games, I felt God was asking me to lay down my idol of sports. But I still had a love for the nations. I still enjoy watching the Olympics, but my heart is truly stirred when people of different backgrounds and from different nations come together during a church service or gathering to pray and to worship the King of kings. What a sweet taste of heaven on earth (Revelation 7:9)!

When we remember who we are in Christ, we remember that we belong to God’s family and His family is international.

The apostle Paul declared to the believers in Galatia, “So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith” (Galatians 3:26). “There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (v. 28).

No matter where we’re from or where we live, let’s rejoice that as believers we’re one in Christ with our brothers and sisters around the world.

Servant leadership isn’t a soft skill—it may be one of the most important indicators of long-term business health. When investors evaluate companies, they often focus on numbers; however, behind every enduring business is a leadership team shaping character, risk, and resilience.

That’s Faith and Finance Live . . . biblical wisdom for your financial decisions. That’s weekdays at 4pm Eastern/3pm Central on Moody Radio.

As Jesus makes his way toward Jerusalem and the cross, he pauses in Bethany among the people he loves. Dr. John Neufeld reflects on the tender scene at Simon the Leper's home — where Martha serves, Mary offers extravagant worship, and Judas reveals a heart of cold cynicism. Through these vivid contrasts, Dr. Neufeld calls us to examine what our own passion for Christ looks like, and to let the story of Passion Week awaken it afresh.

Passion: Easter is a pivotal time in the life of a Christian. The foundation of our faith relies on the death and more importantly, the resurrection of Jesus. This 15-message series will prepare our hearts for the Easter season as Dr. Neufeld walks us through the various aspects of the time leading up to Jesus’ death. Talking about the stories of Jesus in the week leading up to his death, also known as Passion week, ought to awaken our own passion of service, thankfulness, and worship. This is a series you won’t want to miss!

Sid Vicious is an example of the downward spiral of someone living with no sense of worth. If you’re wondering if your life has any value, consider this: the God who created the universe has written your name on the palms of His hands.

Pastor Chuck Swindoll teaches from 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18 about how you can prepare for Christ’s return. Take hold of God’s grace extended to you and pursue holiness while you wait.
