  • Max Lucado Daily Devotional - Valued by Jesus

    Listen to Today's Devotion

    Jesus’ love does not depend upon what we do for him.  Not at all. In the eyes of the King, you have value simply because you are. You don’t have to look nice or perform well.  Your value is inborn. Period.

    Think about that for just a minute. You’re valuable just because you exist. Not because of what you’ve done, but simply because you are. Remember that, the next time you are left bobbing in the wake of someone’s steamboat ambition. Or some trickster tries to hang a bargain basement price tag on your self-worth. Remember that, the next time someone tries to pass you off as a cheap buy.

    Just think about the way Jesus honors you—and smile. I do.  Because I know, I don’t deserve a love like that. None of us do!

  • Maxwell Leadership Podcast - What You Expect is What You Experience

    Do your expectations shape your reality—or limit it? Imagine what would happen if you raised the bar for yourself and those around you. In this week's episode, John Maxwell reveals how the expectations you set determine the experiences you create, and why possibility thinking is every leader's secret advantage.

    After his lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Robinson share actionable strategies for resetting team expectations and building a culture of higher achievement, so you can apply John's insights right away.

    Key takeaways:

    • Successful leaders continually set higher, self-driven expectations and upgrade them over time.

    • Possibility thinking empowers you to see problems as opportunities and persevere through adversity.

    • Your beliefs must match your expectations—when you genuinely believe in your potential and direction, you inspire those around you to do the same.

    Our BONUS resource for this episode is the What You Expect is What You Experience Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John's teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/WhatYouExpect and clicking "Download the Bonus Resource."

  • The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley - "How do I find God's will?"

    I'm struggling with the challenge of trying to do God's will. I want to walk in obedience, pray about everything, and try not to get ahead of God. So many people think you can walk away from Christ and they use 1 Timothy 4, and 2 Peter 2, and Hebrew 6&10 to argue their case. What do you say about all of those?

  • Be Still and Know Daily Bible Devotion - January 28th - Mark 8:27,29
    Mark 8:27,29
    Jesus and his disciples left Galilee and went up to the villages near Caesarea Philippi…He asked them, “But who do you say I am?” Peter replied, “You are the Messiah.”
    As you look back through your life, you may be able to spot turning points. At the time, the day was just like any other, but with hindsight you realise that nothing was quite the same afterwards. Jesus’ visit to Caesarea Philippi with his disciples was undoubtedly a major turning point in his ministry. Up until this moment, Jesus had been preaching and healing with the rumble of threats from the teachers of the law in the background. From this point on, he was heading to the cross. These verses, in which Jesus asked his disciples about his identity, are followed by his first prediction of his death.
    From the beginning of Jesus’ ministry, people had tried to work out who he was. They were amazed by his authoritative teaching and his powerful miracles. They also knew that he was from Nazareth, a town which had no reputation for producing influential people. As Jesus spent time alone with his disciples in the beautiful mountainous setting of Caesarea Philippi, this was an ideal moment for him to talk with them about his identity. At first, he asked a general question. He wanted to know what people were making of him. There were lots of theories. It isn’t surprising that some people imagined he was a revived John the Baptist. In Mark 6, King Herod had come up with the theory that John, who he had beheaded, had come back to life in the form of Jesus. Clearly, he was a man with a lively conscience. Others reflected on the possibility that Jesus was Elijah or one of the other prophets.
    Then Jesus turned the spotlight on the disciples themselves. They had spent about three years with Jesus and had enjoyed a close relationship with him. He wanted to know who they thought he was. Peter was first to reply. “You are the Messiah”, he declared. People today still have many different theories about Jesus, but the time comes when we all need to answer for ourselves. We can’t put it off any longer.
    Question
    Who do you say that Jesus is, and how does your answer shape your life?
    Prayer
    Lord Jesus, I thank you that you are the Messiah and that you are my Lord and my Saviour. Amen

  • The Thriving Christian Artist - Seven Proven Ways Artists Are Earning More Now

    Send us a text

    Feeling buried under shifting algorithms and scattershot advice? We’re pulling back the curtain on seven strategies that actually generated income for artists this year—backed by hundreds of survey responses from our mentoring community. The theme is clear: simple systems, strong relationships, and consistent action beat hacks every time.

    We start with teaching as a reliable income engine that builds trust and turns students into collectors—through weekly classes, small workshops, retreats, and Zoom. From there, we explore strategic partnerships that put your work in front of buyers without constant hustling: galleries, juried shows, exhibitions, and public art commissions with real budgets. You’ll hear why commissions remain a powerhouse when you lead with clarity—tiered pricing, letters of understanding, timelines—and how a healthy waitlist can raise your perceived value and stabilize cash flow.

    The backbone of it all is referral-driven selling. Visibility tools help, but people close deals. We outline how to cultivate designers, builders, gallery owners, and peers so you’re the obvious recommendation when art is needed. Along the way, we unpack a counterintuitive win: small, high-touch experiences outperformed big events for profit and joy. Fewer seats, deeper connection, premium pricing—less burnout, better outcomes. We also make a case for the slow power of consistency over raw talent and show how deliberate skill development—critiques, classes, mentorship—translates directly into higher-value sales and a stronger portfolio.

    If you’re ready to simplify, focus, and sell with integrity, this conversation gives you a practical roadmap you can start today. Pick two or three strategies, stack them with intention, and let relationships, structure, and steady practice compound your results. Subscribe for more artist business training, share this with a friend who needs clarity, and leave a review to tell us which strategy you’ll try next.

  • Curiously Kaitlyn - Why Heaven Won't Be Perfect

    We think the after life will be perfect in every way, but that is not the picture that Scripture paints.  From Eden to new creation, Kaitlyn and Mike explore why scripture calls creation "good" instead of "perfect," why only God has perfection, and why eternal life won't be static, boring, or frozen in place. Instead, it's a future of growth, learning, and flourishing—far better than the perfection we imagine now.
