  • In Christ: Our True Identity

    In a world that constantly defines us by our achievements, appearances, or failures, the Gospel reminds us that our true identity is found in Christ alone. To be “in Christ” is to be securely rooted in His love and righteousness, freed from striving to prove our worth.

  • The Joy of Serving Christ

    “Therefore I exult in Christ Jesus in my service to God.” (Romans 15:17, BSB) The Apostle Paul’s declaration in Romans 15:17 offers a glimpse into the heart of a servant captivated by the glory of Christ. His joy is not rooted in personal achievements or the accolades of others but…

  • The Hopes of Resolve in Christ

    Standing on the threshold of a new year often fills us with a mixture of hope and uncertainty. The road ahead is uncharted, and while resolutions may falter, resolve stands firm. As I reflect on this, I’m reminded of the Apostle Paul, a man of singular resolve, who epitomized the…

  • Living Sacrifices for God

    The Christian life is a call to transformation—a daily surrender of ourselves to God in response to His mercy. In Romans 12:1-2, Paul reminds us that true worship is not confined to a building or ritual but is found in a life wholly devoted to God.

  • The Boldness of Quiet Faith

    Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus were unlikely figures to show devotion to Jesus after His crucifixion. Previously quiet about their faith, they courageously stepped forward to care for His body when others had fled. Their actions challenge us to live out our faith boldly, even in the face of fear…

    “Of all sights in the church of Christ, I know none more painful to my own eyes than a Christian contented and satisfied with a little grace, a little repentance, a little faith, a little knowledge, a little charity, and a little holiness. I do beseech and entreat every believing…

  • The Competing Sons of Zebedee

    In a moment of ambition, James and John, the sons of Zebedee, asked Jesus for positions of honor in His kingdom. Their request exposed a human tendency to seek power and recognition, but Jesus used it as an opportunity to teach a profound truth about humility, servanthood, and greatness in…

  • A Call to Christ-Centered Living

    Paul’s bold statement, “Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ” (1 Corinthians 11:1, NASB), is both striking and humbling. It invites us into a life of discipleship modeled after Christ, through the example of a faithful servant. Yet, this declaration is not isolated or without context.…

  • Begin the Year with Remembering

    As God prepared to deliver Israel from over 400 years of bondage in Egypt, He ordained that their calendar year begin with remembrance. The first month was to be marked by the Passover, a festival that commemorated their redemption. This was no mere memorial; it was a vivid proclamation of…
