A Christ-follower does not need to abandon rational thought to believe in the miracles described in the Bible or that miracles still happen today.

While God does not provide the reason for each experience of pain, through Jesus he does provide a way to face suffering with hope and courage rather than bitterness and despair.

The Bible can be shown to be a reliable document, accurately recorded and transmitted through history, which means we can trust the Bible as a solid foundation upon which to build our lives.

Salvation can only be found in the grace offered to us through Jesus; and that truth should make Christ-followers the most inclusive, reconciling, agents of peace the world has ever seen.

God wants us to see that he’s at work redeeming whatever we’ve been through.

Deciding now to do the right thing later can help us live a life of integrity.

No matter what we’ve done or what’s been done to us, we’re never disqualified from living a life of promise.

If we hope to get from here to there, we will continue to take steps to become a surrendered giver.
