Who is “in” and who is “out”? As we struggle with the doubts of our own faith and the reality that we fall short in our attempts to follow Jesus, how do we know that we are actually part of God’s “in-crowd”? How do we have any surety of our own...

It’s impossible to watch Jesus and see him demonstrate anything but unconditional acceptance, even with the most unlikely people. But Christians are usually a different case. While the world is hungry for a sense of belonging, too easily we assume we...

In life, it’s tempting to settle for less than God’s ideal, as long as we can keep limping along with our current situation. Our marriage pattern may not be great, but it’s good enough. I may not be the worker I want to be or at the job I’d crave, but...

For many, the purpose of faith is to get you into heaven someday, which is only a portion of the promise God of eternal life God makes to us. Life begins in the here and now and it’s so rich that it goes on forever. Many of us have claimed the promise...

When you’re a child, you look to someone bigger than you to provide, strength, courage and refuge. When you get older, you still long for someone who can combat your anxieties and fears in life but you start to feel like it’s is all on (up to) you...

Like the stuff in our storage room that we move from house to house, we carry the baggage of our sins and pasts from one year to the next. More than the guilt that comes with them, we begin to see ourselves through the lens of those failures. Instead...

Too many of us believe the never-made promise that with God, life will be easy, victorious, and prosperous. God actually promises that life will be difficult, but then he promises something even richer. He says that none of the struggles, hardships...
