We were all created to make an incredible difference in the world. Part of living out that purpose is being rooted in God's promises for our lives as we listen to His voice and learn from His word.

Jesus' time on earth was marked by care and compassion for those in need around Him. As we seek to advance His kingdom here on earth, we look for opportunities to extend the same kind of care to the people in our lives.

We're not meant to go through life alone; God created us to live in community as we acknowledge our journeys with one another. The friendship between David and Jonathan is not only a great picture of biblical community, it's a warning of the disastrous results of trying to get through life on our own.

God has a unique role for us to play when it comes to advancing His kingdom revolution. Blessing others isn't about just being a "good person," it's about sharing the life-changing hope of the gospel around the globe and right here at home.

The Eat CABLE Practice is about much more than just gathering around a dinner table. It's about advancing God's kingdom by pursuing multicultural relationships. In Acts, early followers of Jesus give us a great picture of what it means to have a diverse community.

Prayer is an incredibly important part of living a thriving life based on healthy spiritual rhythms. Whether we've simply fallen out of a rhythm of prayer over the summer or we're facing hardships and pressure from life's circumstances, taking the time to reset our prayer lives isn't just important—it's necessary.

All too often, we tend to drift toward me-first lifestyles that center on getting the most or the best for us. Jesus calls us to live a different kind of lifestyle that promises us much more than a me-first kind of life ever could.

Especially in light of recent events, it's important that we enter into the difficult conversations surrounding racism and our response to it as followers of Jesus. How do we engage in those conversations as we seek to bring restoration and healing to our communities?

As followers of Jesus, we're called to live as people who are sent. Being sent isn't just for the people who get on planes to far-away places...we're called to be sent no matter where we are. How can we reset our mission to be "sent," even in our own home communities?

We all worship something, and the question of what or who we worship has a drastic influence on our lives and hearts. In Psalm 135, we see what happens when we worship the things our culture does, and where we can find true, life-giving worship.
