Bow
Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father (Philippians 2:9–11, […]
With Friends Like These . . .
A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity (Proverbs 17:17, esv). The Christian life is not a solo venture. It requires teamwork. God has given us an incredible resource in our brothers and sisters in Christ. We desperately need each other so that when we want to quit, we can’t, […]
On Bended Knee
WATCH Did you know – your prayer life is not dependent on your ability to articulate to God? He loves to listen and answer your requests. He wants you to approach him in prayer, with faith, and make your requests known. As 2024 begins, fire up your prayer life with these accelerants straight from Scripture, […]
The Key to Remembering
And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign […]
Peace on Purpose

Five Christmas Gifts from Jesus
“For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God” (John 16:27, esv). God knows how to give good gifts to His children. Compared to our gift-giving (which isn’t too shabby, right?), God’s is infinitely better. “If you then, who are evil, know how to give […]
The Lord Has Been Gracious
He asked for a writing tablet and wrote, “His name is John.” And they all wondered. And immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, blessing God (Luke 1:63–64, esv). Maybe nine months without being able to talk would be just the cure we need for whatever keeps us from praising […]

Our Daily Bread
“Give us this day our daily bread” (Matthew 6:11, esv). A new blue bike, a skateboard, a light-up football, a U.S. soccer jersey, Xbox games, a fast sled, a trampoline, an iPad, a trip to Disneyland . . . Ever seen a child’s Christmas wish list that looked like that? Boundless consumerism in a little […]
