The Christmas season can be filled with a lot of hype. But sometimes all that anticipation can leave us with empty and unmet expectations; the prophet Micah reminds us that what we anticipate and what God actually brings are not always the same thing.

The Bible gives some helpful advice on ways we can keep Christ as the focus of our faith.

Having a faith that is focused on Christ can be complicated. The Bible tells us that sometimes religion itself can become a distraction from faith in Jesus; how can we clear out everything that distracts our faith from being focused on Christ?

The mystery of the gospel can sometimes seem a little blurry when life throws a lot at us; the Bible reminds us how to find our focus back again.

The Bible does not say much about spiritual warfare; the key to understanding Paul’s words about the armor of God is to see it in the context of the entire letter of Ephesians.

What did God prepare in advance for you to do? The answer is connected to what it means for you to be saved by grace through faith.
