Strife, that ugly thing, shouldn’t define anyone’s life. It’s certainly not how a follower of Jesus is meant to live. In today’s politically charged world, God’s Word offers a stark contrast. Proverbs tells us that “it is to a man’s glory to overlook an offense.” We’re talking about the negative effects of a life filled with conflict, of being a contentious person. “How to Live Satisfied and Gain Victory Over Strife,” that’s our focus on this week’s Light On Life.

God captivated people in ancient times through Spirit-led miracles. These miracles, by definition, are divine interventions where God’s power suspends the natural order.

True liberty is found only in Jesus, a truth revealed in Romans. As we celebrate Independence Day here in the United States, the concept of freedom looms more pronounced than ever. The overturning of Roe V Wade a few years ago was a historic moment, sparking protests from those who saw it as an infringing on freedom of choice. But is the freedom to choose all there is to freedom? Romans 8:2 says, ‘For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.’ Only Jesus offers real liberty from sin and death. Why God’s Tremendous Liberty Is Only Found in Jesus, that’s our focus on this week’s Light on Life.
