Dating can be terrifying because there is no playbook. Although the Bible does not talk about every specific dating need, there is a great reminder from Psalm 127 that may help in your dating life. There is a God sourced-purpose to dating. 

​Sometimes on our faith journey, we feel like something is missing. When I feel this way, I have found it is usually because I have forgotten I have been made new and I go back to striving in my own strength. Let's talk about what bikes, nuts, and bolts have to do with God's grace. 

How we define "wasting time" may provide insight into where our priorities lie. My college roommate shared a life tip with me that changed how I filled my to-do list.

I can list at least four reasons why I don't want to go to church. What keeps you away from church? Even if the church doesn't seem to have a place for you, God wants you and me to be a part of the church body. 

Your mom may love you, but does she love you unconditionally? A conversation with a friend reminded me just how great our God loves us. 

 

Our jobs affect our time, our energy, and our thoughts. That's why it is important to ask questions. What is a career, a job, or a vocation? All three relate to the calling God has placed on our lives. 

 

Many of us can think of a person with a confidence that seems to be part of their DNA— they stand out because most of us cannot hide our insecurities. The opinions of others can leave us feeling discouraged and unsure about ourselves, but I found a principle from Colossians 3:23 that can help us live more confidently in Christ.

 

Death is something that everyone experiences— many have been touched by losing someone they love. Even though we know this in our heads, it is still a hard topic to approach. How can we use the conversation of death to share the hope of the Gospel? 

 

How do we talk about hard topics in the world today? In Acts 26, the Apostle Paul tells a stirring story of transformation—one that may have caused the leaders of his time to question his sanity. We could take notes on how Paul communicates truth.

 

Nothing I have planned or dreamed for my life has happened so far . . . what about for you? Do you also wrestle with the question, "what is God doing?" Through Jeremiah 29:11, we see that God has bigger dreams for us; however, they  might not always be what we expect.
