Tasting God’s Goodness
As Christians, we know that the way to be close to God is to spend time with Him, praying and reading the Bible. But that time with God accomplishes more than we might think.
Hope for the Next Generation
This is my 16th year as an elementary teacher, and it sometimes astounds me to think just how much our world has changed. Young people have so many more voices to sort through now as they grow and mature, and it can be easy to feel like it’s a losing battle. But there is hope for the next generation, and those yet to come—and you and I have the opportunity to be a part of God’s working.
Drawing Near to Our Personal God
It is easy to be so busy doing things for the Lord, that we lose sight of the fact that He is not just a vague entity, but a real Person, who desires us to spend time with Him.
Our Home and Father
God is a perfect Father, our place of peace and security. As someone recently described it to me, God is our home and our Father.
To Walk with God
The Old Testament frequently has genealogical lists of individuals, the details of their lives often following a specific pattern. But once in a while, God includes an individual whose life doesn’t follow the pattern.
Christian Creativity
Creativity is such a personal thing, unique to each person. It is an expression of who we are—but for the Christian, there is a far higher calling for the use of our creativity.
Knowing and Delighting
In Christianity, it is sometimes easier to know about God than to really know Him. This week, I’ve been pondering the connection between knowing God and delighting in Him, and in the things He Himself delights in.
Salt and Light
Christians often talk about being “salt and light”, but what did Jesus actually mean when He described His followers as salt and light?
Walking With God in the Cool of the Day
Have you ever noticed what time of day God chose to come to Adam and Eve in Genesis 3? I think His timing might hold a lesson for you and me as we ourselves walk with God.
