We often talk about reaching crossroads in life, a moment in time in which we have to decide which way to go. There is another place of decision that many of us come to and that is when we can see where we are supposed to be, but we see it from a spot that we have become...

What do you do when God challenges your faith? In John 6 Jesus asked His disciples to trust Him in a manner that He had never asked before. With very little food and nowhere to buy more Jesus told His disciples to tell the crowd of at least 5,000 followers to sit down and prepare to...

In John 8 Jesus said to those who believed in Him, “you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.” We here the last phrase quoted often, “The truth shall set you free”, but it seems to me that the emphasis of Jesus’ statement is not merely on the truth but our...

Jesus faced more rejection than anyone that ever walked the earth before or since. He was rejected by the religious, by leaders, by friends and neighbors, by His brothers and even one of His apostles. In the midst of all of this rejection He was constantly at peace in the perfect confidence that He was loved by...

There are times when life is difficult. I can’t think of anyone in Scripture that gives us a clearer example of not only the difficulty of life but also how to overcome that difficulty and follow Jesus fully.

We have times in which our expectations are not met, in which the timing of God does not seem to line up with the timing we had hoped for...

If Ruth taught us that following God through tragedy is all about love then Abraham teaches us that following through the unknown is all about trust! There will be many times in our lives in which we will be unsure of what comes next, the key to faith is learning that God is never in that...

We are all called to be followers of Christ, to trust Him to lead us and to willingly stay near Him on the path of righteousness that He has purposed for our lives. In Scripture we find many examples of followers, each with their own path and their own purpose. I believe that in the...

We were enormously blessed to host Joel Bringas from Youth With a Mission in Davao, Philippines this week. Joel is the Regional Director, National Training Director, Indochina Training Coordinator for YWAM. I pray that his message, filled with stories and examples of God’s still small voice will bless and challenge you. May we all become fervent listeners to God so that...
