Words of Trust
We do live in a difficult, trying time. For followers of Christ, this is a time for us to grow closer to God. It’s a time for us to shine the light of Christ as we trust in Him.
Words of Forgiveness
The theme of forgiveness is woven all throughout scripture and it culminates in the event of the cross. That is where Jesus went to the cross bearing the sins of the world in order that we might have forgiveness.
Jesus was the Righteous Sufferer
The God of the universe carried out a plan in time and space that bought redemption for any that put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ. God’s perfectly righteous son bore a punishment meant for the worst of criminals. That’s the scandal of the cross.
The Importance of One
Every time we see the apostle Andrew in the Bible he is pointing someone to Jesus. He was just one ordinary person, who went after one person at a time, and brought them to Jesus.
Put Out Into The Deep
God wants to do in us, through us and for us things that will never be accomplished if we stay at ease in the shallow waters of life.
A Biblical Perspective on Mental Illness
Because we live in a sin cursed world and because of the fall, our physical minds, bodies, and emotions are tainted and corrupted by sin. However as believers in Christ we have a dual message of hope both for now and for the future and we can pass that along. We don’t have to despair or to decide like the rest of the world often does that because someone suffers tremendously there’s no hope for them. There’s great hope for them.
Subtle Sins
As humans we’re quick to see the sins of others but not so much the sins in our own heart. You might say that we have blind spots. God uses other believers to shine light into areas of our hearts that we don’t always see ourselves.

Christians and Alcohol
