God’s desire is that we “bear much fruit” by who we become and how we live.

God doesn’t just want us to live for him, but to abide with Him.

Pruning is a painful but necessary part of our spiritual growth.

God wants us to flourish; But we tend to pursue other paths on our quest for fulfillment.

Ruth’s example teaches us that your background and your past doesn’t dictate your future, and that God can redeem and restore in beautiful ways when we trust him and remain loyal to our commitments.

Deborah’s example inspires us to listen to God’s voice, lead with conviction, courage and confidence, and empower others to do the same.

Suffering is not the wrecking ball that knocks Christianity down but rather the cornerstone on which it has always been built.

As Christians, we are rightly concerned about our freedom to worship, but we must also advocate for rights of those who worship differently than we do, or not at all.

The claims of Christianity are exclusive because our relationship with God is not based on sincerity, morality, or religion, but on the person of Jesus. But our attitude toward those who believe differently should be marked by gentleness and respect.
