A Biblical View of Heroes of the Faith
There is a sense in which the Bible points us to individuals who were examples of Christlikeness, but where does encouragement end and hero worship begin?
For Show or for Blow?
Originally a reference to frilly handkerchiefs, “for show, not for blow” was one of my Grandma’s favorite sayings. What does that have to do with the Christian life?
Leaping in Faith
The account of Peter and John and the healing of the lame man at the temple was always a favorite of mine as a child. But that lame man showed great faith that can be an example and encouragement to us today.
Making Time for Wonder
When was the last time you stopped and marveled over something in nature? God has built wonder into His creation, and there is value in taking time to let ourselves consider the beauty and intricacy of even the mundane things of life.
Ephesus, Pergamos, and the Most Destructive Thing
“The Most Destructive Thing” might seem a bit dramatic, but a look at Christ’s view of the problems facing the churches in Revelation 2 shows us one problem in particular that carried a dire consequence if left unaddressed.

In the book of Jeremiah, God puts on display two choices and their results—the same two choices you and I face in our lives today.
Put it Away!
It is all too easy to let clutter build up in our lives. But we can just as easily become spiritually cluttered. So what do we do about it?
Slow But Steady
God’s plan for His children is for us to flourish and grow. But what does that look like in daily life, and how do we get the nourishment we need for spiritual growth?
