  • Back to the Flame: Returning to Our First Love

    Back to the Flame: Returning to Our First Love

    The early church didn’t begin with impressive buildings, polished programs, or institutional power. It began with hearts set on fire by the risen Christ. A people who had seen the Lord—truly seen Him—could not help but speak, could not help but love. They gathered, they prayed, they gave, they suffered—all…

  • And Yet True

    John 14:6 (BSB) declares,“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.’” These words stand like a mountain peak in the landscape of Scripture—unmoving, unyielding, and glorious. Here, Jesus does not offer a suggestion. He gives a declaration.…

  • The Things of God (Part 3)

    In the opening chapter of 1 Corinthians, the Apostle Paul draws back the veil and reveals to us the glorious things of God—truths that stand in stark contrast to the wisdom and strength of the world. Here we are called to see life not as men see it, but as…

  • The Wonderful Things of Christ

    Everywhere we turn in the Scriptures, the person and work of Christ shine with unmatched splendor. His gifts, His power, His love—these are not distant or abstract, but near, personal, and transformative. As we consider the “Things of Christ,” may our hearts be drawn ever closer to Him who is…

    When Quitting Looks Easy but Faith Calls Us to Endure

    There are moments in the Christian life that feel like a prizefighter staggering in his corner, too bruised to stand, too weary to swing again. He slumps down and whispers, “No more.” We’ve all been there. A bruising job. A fractured relationship. A mounting pile of disappointment or fear. And…

  • United in Christ

    There is something precious about the unity of true believers. Though we come from many nations, backgrounds, and stories, every child of God shares a common bond—one forged by grace, sealed by the Spirit, and centered in Christ. In a world marked by division and self-interest, the Church stands as…

  • The Life of the Believer

    In 1 Corinthians 2, the Apostle Paul reveals the indispensable role of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer and the life of the Church. Without the Spirit, the things of God remain hidden, unknowable, and unattainable. But by the Spirit, all that is ours in Christ is…

  • The Prayer of Prayers

    In the stillness of the soul, when the noise of self and the world are hushed, there rises a prayer that is both simple and supreme: “Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God” (Psalm 143:10, BSB). This is the prayer of prayers—the humble cry of a…

  • Boasting Only in the Cross

    Boasting Only in the Cross

    Let us fix our hearts and minds upon the cross of Jesus Christ. There is no symbol more central, no message more vital to our faith. It is only through the cross that salvation is made possible. Without the cross, there would be no hope, no reconciliation, no eternal life.…
