Because of Christ, we have the power to touch the lives of those around us and that’s an opportunity and responsibility we must not neglect.

Start your week with the important reminder Peter has for Christians.

Psalm 42 shows us the prayer of a godly man who feels forgotten by God, but in his unease, we see the roots of how we can rely on God even when it seems like God isn’t around to rely on.

The Bible is clear: Christians should be a people who rejoice and people should know us for that joy! Joy is not optional for us, but when we recognize what true joy is, we can rejoice in the Lord always.

Jesus gave us an example of how we should wake up, so today we ask: What does a godly morning routine look like?

I am wrong sometimes. Normally that's okay, but if I'm wrong about my faith there are serious consequences. Today we talk about how we can overcome our own fallibility through the Holy Spirit.

To all the mothers who are listening, thank you. We appreciate everything you do, especially for raising your children to know and love the Lord. Today we’re talking about a remarkable woman from Scripture and the kind of model she sets for women who want to be godly mothers and really the rest of us too.

Our drive to be busy as a measure of success is not really about productivity or achieving any measurable goal at all. It’s about control. It’s about the idolatry that says we run our lives, instead of God.

Isn’t it amazing the kinds of questions the church is asked today? Nevertheless this is being asked because our society has wholly embraced vulgarity. Does the church need to embrace the status quo to remain relevant?

We come to Christ voluntarily out of love, but when we call Him Master, we are branded to serve Him for the rest of our lives. What does that brand look like? What simple, unique and easy to identify mark do Christians bear so that others can recognize us?
