Does God want you to grow? Well, the answer to that is a resounding yes. In John 15, Jesus talks about the results of abiding in Him. “I am the vine; you are the branches.

Keep Praying and Trusting God
Luke 18:1–8 Are you guilty of getting a text message and not responding? I know I am. Sometimes it’s not on purpose, but other times, I just don’t respond. God on the other hand doesn’t leave us “on read.” He doesn’t ignore our cries, grow tired of our voices, or brush us aside. In Luke 18, JesusContinueContinue reading “Keep Praying and Trusting God”
Devotional: Finding Peace when the world feels uncertain
We don’t have to look far to see the chaos around us—conflict, unrest, and uncertainty seem to be everywhere. While we might think things are worse than ever, human history is actually full of seasons like this. Even during the Pax Romana, a period of relative peace, tensions bubbled under the surface.

Having the opportunity to work with local high school students in my community wasContinueContinue reading “Changing a Generation”

As A Family Worship At Home (Seeing Jesus in the Family part 6)
Family Worship is part of the discipleship of the entire family. I would argue both the Father and mother are needed to have a full robust time of family worship.
A Home of Obedience and Love (Seeing Jesus in the Family Part 5)
Everyone has a role to play in the home. The part of children is to obey their parents and grow in the fear and knowledge of the Lord. That means children should be maturing in their understanding of who God is and living in a manner where they respect the Lord and their parents.
Seeing Jesus in the Family Part 4 (The Husband)
The Christian husband is called to a higher level, not simply a romantic love, but is willing at any moment to self-sacrifice for his wife.
