  • The Measure of True Faithfulness

    Theology matters deeply. It shapes our understanding of who God is and how we are to live for Him. Yet, Jesus warns us that knowledge alone is not the ultimate measure of faithfulness. It is possible to be “spot on” theologically and still miss the heart of God—especially if our…

  • Tuning The Harp (7)

    How often do we rush into prayer, bypassing the intimacy of addressing God as “Our Father”? Reid Ferguson challenges us to reframe prayer as communion, not a task list or complaint session.
