  • Max Lucado Daily Devotional - The Seamless Character of Jesus

    Listen to Today's Devotion

    Garments can symbolize character, and like his garment, Jesus’ character was seamless. He was like his robe: uninterrupted perfection. A seamless fabric woven from heaven to earth…from God’s thoughts to Jesus’ actions. From God’s tears to Jesus’ compassion. From God’s word to Jesus’ response. All one piece. All a picture of the character of Jesus.

    But when Christ was nailed to the cross, he took off his robe of seamless perfection and assumed a different wardrobe– the wardrobe of indignity. Shamed before his family. The indignity of nakedness. The indignity of failure. Shamed before his accusers. Worst of all he bore the indignity of sin. The scripture says, “He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness” (1 Peter 2:24 NIV).  The clothing of Christ on the cross? Sin. It was yours and mine.

  • Maxwell Leadership Podcast - Success and Failure: The Partnership that Fuels Growth

    Are you ready to turn your greatest setbacks into the fuel for exponential growth? In this week's episode, John Maxwell unpacks how the partnership between success and failure is essential to leadership—and why your perspective on failure determines your path to achievement.

    After his lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede provide real-world strategies you can use right away to embrace failure as a catalyst for learning and growth.

    Key takeaways:

    • How you view failure shapes your response to it—and seeing it as part of success unlocks growth, humility, and maturity.

    • Successful leaders don't just make good decisions; they learn to manage both their wins and their losses to maximize impact.

    • The lessons you take from failure are what propel you forward—if you don't lose the lesson, you never truly lose.

    Our BONUS resource for this episode is the Success and Failure: The Partnership that Fuels Growth Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John's teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/Partnership and clicking "Download the Bonus Resource."

  • Be Still and Know Daily Bible Devotion - March 11th - 2 Timothy 3:10-11
    2 Timothy 3:10-11
    You, Timothy, certainly know what I teach, and how I live and what my purpose in life is. You know my faith, my patience, my love and my endurance. You know how much persecution and suffering I have endured.
    On the face of it, this sounds like bragging. Paul appears to have an enormous ego and it all feels rather awkward, but he knew how crucial personal example was. He had just informed Timothy of the challenges he was going to face and of how society was going to become more and more ungodly and destructive. If Timothy was going to survive, let alone thrive, he was going to need to be a very effective teacher but also have a life that backed it up. In these letters, Paul repeatedly pointed to the vital importance of sound teaching, but no Christian teacher will have any impact unless their life reflects it. Paul never claimed to be perfect and indeed was often keen to point out the extent of his sinfulness, but he knew that, amid his failures, he had offered Timothy an example which was well worth copying.
    Your life is being observed by others whether you know it or not, and indeed whether you like it or not. People are drawing certain conclusions about the Christian life from the way you live. If you were talking to a young Christian and, like Paul, trying to give encouragement to them, what aspects of your life do you think would be worth copying? It would be good for you to write a list of the things that might be helpful about your example. Ideally, it would be good if you could talk this through with a trusted friend. Be clear that this is absolutely the opposite of an exercise in egotism. This is about finding ways in which your life can serve God by giving a good example to others.
    Challenge
    Make a list of at least three things about your life which could be a helpful example to others.
    Prayer
    Lord God, help me to set a good example for others so that they may be strengthened by my life. Amen

  • The Thriving Christian Artist - The Fight Every Artist Must Face

    Send a text

    Doubt doesn’t knock politely; it roars in your studio, rewrites your story, and calls itself responsible planning. We shine a bright light on the daily fight every artist faces: the battle to believe what God says about your identity, your calling, and your future. Instead of chasing motivation, we show how agreement with truth becomes a reliable tool you can use when comparison spikes, perfectionism tightens, or the clock whispers that you’re too late.

    We trace the enemy’s oldest tactic—did God really say?—and reveal how it hides in modern creative life as striving, overwork, and hurry. Then we get practical. You’ll learn a simple way to take every thought captive, test it against scripture like a clear set of lenses, and answer it out loud the way Jesus did in the wilderness. We talk about renewing the mind as a daily craft rather than a one-time breakthrough, why resistance signals progress, and how to protect your imagination so it fuels faith instead of fear.

    If you’ve ever lain awake wondering whether you missed it, or if you’ve watched your art stall under the weight of invisible pressure, this conversation will feel like oxygen. We share a path to build a disciplined inner life, strengthen your courage, and create from agreement instead of anxiety. Ready to stop fighting random skirmishes and start winning on purpose? Hit play, subscribe for more faith-and-creativity tools, and tell us in the comments: what thought are you taking captive today?
