The story of Jesus' early life reminds us that who you become matters far more than what you achieve. For nearly thirty years, Jesus lived in obscurity—no miracles, no sermons, just ordinary life in a small town. And yet, Scripture tells us those were the years when He grew in wisdom, strength of spirit, and […]

Matthew chapter 2 is more than a historical account, it's a mirror revealing how we respond to Jesus, the ultimate Truth. Like the wise men, you may be searching for truth and meaning, but haven't yet found what satisfies. Or like Herod, you might reject truth because it threatens your control or your pride. Or […]

From the very beginning of creation, God desired to bring forth life out of darkness, so He said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. This separation is representative of two opposing kingdoms; one to which His children belong, […]

Christ's death on the cross paid the price for your sins, but His resurrection declared you justified. It's more than forgiveness—it's as if you had never sinned at all. The resurrection isn't just a truth to believe in; it's a reality to live in. His victory at the empty tomb frees you from condemnation, performance, […]

Some people use their family name to boast about wealth, power or prominence. But the genealogy of Jesus shatters expectations. God's raw, unfiltered family album includes prostitutes, pagans, adulterers, and murderers—people who wouldn't be welcome in most churches! But God didn't airbrush their stories; He wove them into His redemptive plan, proving that Jesus didn't […]

When Jesus entered our world, it wasn't the peaceful, Christmas card scene we imagine. He came to a people weary from being crushed by 1,500 years of military oppression. They desperately longed for the promised Messiah to rescue them, but their hope was slipping away. Sadly, when Jesus did arrive, they rejected Him because they […]

Think about this—God has never broken a single promise, not once. He proved it when He gave a son to Zechariah and Elizabeth, even though they were far too old. He proved it when, after centuries of silence, He sent the Messiah through Mary and turned despair into hope. If God always keeps His promises—and […]

Life has a way of unraveling our certainties, doesn't it? One moment, we think we've got it all figured out—our plans, our relationships, our future—and the next, it slips through our fingers like sand. Mary and Joseph were two ordinary people thrust into extraordinary circumstances—her, a teenage girl pregnant with a miracle she can't explain; […]

God's plans often come as interruptions to our carefully constructed lives. Zechariah, a faithful priest, and Mary, a humble teenager had two starkly different responses to divine intrusions. Zechariah, wearied by years of unanswered prayer, struggled to believe God's promise of a son in his old age. Mary, however, received the unimaginable call to be […]

Scripture tells us that faith is a treasure more valuable than gold. And like any treasure, it’s something we should guard and protect. Our faith is a target that this world and the kingdom of darkness is constantly trying to destroy. We must stay awake, be alert, and keep watch for the dangers seeking to […]

In Luke's carefully researched Gospel, you encounter not just historical facts, but the compassionate heart of both the physician and the Christ he portrays. Luke presents Jesus as one who cares for the outcast, the sick, and the downtrodden—who notices the overlooked and touches the untouchable—revealing a Savior who heals both bodies and souls. His […]

One of the most tragic scenes in all of Scripture is when Jesus, the very architect of creation, entered His own world, only to be met with cold indifference. He wasn't just ignored by strangers; He was rejected by His own people. They had the prophecies, the covenants and the history, all pointing to Jesus, […]

At some point, every person wrestles with life's deepest questions: Where did I come from? Why am I here? What happens when I die? Yet, no amount of self-reflection can uncover these answers. Apart from Christ, we may be physically alive, but we remain spiritually dead—separated from the eternal life only He can give. No […]

To discover who Jesus truly is, we must start at the beginning, before creation, before time, where we are introduced to Him as the Word—the “Logos.” Ancient philosophers considered the Logos to be the mysterious, unknowable entity that brought order and reason to the universe. But John reveals that the Logos is not merely a […]

When you pause to consider the intricate complexity of creation, you're faced with the reality that every detail, no matter how small, gives evidence of a Designer. From the mathematical precision of the galaxies to the astonishing arrangement of human DNA, creation reveals something far greater than random chance—an intentional, loving intelligence that crafted every […]

Can the New Testament withstand the barrage of accusations leveled by critics who claim its authors fabricated events, distorted truth, or contradicted themselves? We confront these challenges head-on, examining whether the Bible is truly the inspired Word of God or a cleverly concocted myth. In a world where truth is often buried under layers of […]

Life can be difficult and for many of us we are still praying, waiting and seeking God on a number of items in our lives. However, God’s Word reminds us never to give up and to keep focusing on the eternal. Our Hope is in Him. Heaven is our Home.

Throughout human history, one truth has remained unchanging: mankind's hopelessly lost condition and his complete inability to solve the problem of sin. The final words of the Old Testament point to a promise—a coming Savior who will break the curse of sin and reconcile us to God. Yet those final words also carry a warning: […]

What happens when faithfulness falters? Malachi confronts the people of Israel about their unfaithfulness to God and to one another. Their compromised worship and broken relationships reveal the deeper issue: hearts that have drifted from God's covenant. This message explores how we, too, can fall into patterns of half-hearted devotion and relational betrayal. Yet God's […]

In Malachi, we see people trapped in religious routines, forgetting the very God they're meant to adore. Their sacrifices are mere leftovers, their worship is a chore, and their hearts are indifferent. When God declared, “I have loved you,” they cynically replied, “How have you loved us?” This startling exchange should unsettle us. But before […]

What if the very thing you're holding onto—your fear, your pain, your sense of lack—is the one thing keeping you from God's best? You may be quick to thank God for your blessings, but what about your battles? Jesus gave thanks for a handful of loaves and fish before they became a feast. He gave […]

Do you ever find yourself wincing at your frequent failures in your walk with God? Are mountaintop victories sometimes followed by valleys of our own making? No life of faith is a straight climb toward perfection, but rather a winding journey of wandering and returning. But here's the good news: God's grace meets you every […]

Imagine holding a letter from a loved one who has passed on—a final message filled with their deepest encouragement and wisdom, written just for you. How would you treat it? Would you toss it in a drawer and only skim through it occasionally, or would you treasure every word, knowing it holds their heart for […]

One of the enemy's most effective tactics is sowing seeds of fear in our minds to dishearten us and bring God's work to a halt. You will inevitably face moments when opposition closes in and threatens to erode your courage. The question is, will you allow fear to control you, or will you rise above […]

Join us for the encouraging testimonies of Chris & April Jensen. Their story inspires hope in a God who can deliver people out of darkness and into His wonderful light.

Your life, with all its flaws and imperfections, is not a hindrance but the very instrument God desires to use. The question isn't whether God can use someone like you, but whether you're willing to step out of your comfort zone and say “yes” to His call. You might feel ordinary, unqualified, or too broken, […]

Have you ever felt so burdened by a cause that it weighed heavily on your heart, almost overwhelming you? You've prayed, waited, and wondered if God would ever respond—but no answer seems to come. Don't lose heart. Sometimes, your lowest point may be the beginning of your calling! One day that door will open, and […]

Are there broken places in your life that need repair—neglected relationships, a faith that's withering, or cracks in your character? It's tempting to ignore these areas, hoping they'll heal on their own, but this only gives the enemy room to creep in. It's time to take an honest look at the damage and bring it […]

God calls us to live holy lives, reflecting His glory and purity in a world that often pulls us in the opposite direction. Holiness requires a conscious separation from the patterns and values of the world, because following God always involves surrender. Who or what has the greatest influence over your heart? Are these influences […]

As you endeavor to solve problems, accomplish tasks and pursue your goals, remember that your success doesn’t depend upon your own strength or wisdom alone. It rests in the powerful, guiding hand of God. Do you ever pause to recognize how God is working in your life—opening doors, orchestrating circumstances, and meeting your needs? Yes, […]

The Bible has a lot to say about our actions. Most often this is described in Scripture as works or deeds. Unfortunately, many have a negative view of these words, but why is that? When we examine Scripture, we find that God has expectations regarding our actions, so it’s important that we understand what He […]

It's thrilling to celebrate victories in life, whether it's a significant personal accomplishment, a well-deserved business success, or a hard-fought spiritual battle! But as rewarding as these moments are, they are only temporary. Soon we realize that this warfare never ends because we live in a world of sin. It's a sobering reminder that we […]

Does it ever feel like the odds are stacked against you? Despite your faithfulness, do the wicked seem to thrive while you struggle to survive? Remember this: though evil may triumph temporarily, God’s justice will ultimately prevail. Trust in His timing and sovereignty, knowing that even in the darkest moments, He is at work, weaving […]

At times, we all face challenges so immense that they drive us to our knees. Seeking the Lord in prayer is always the best place to begin, but prayer without action is not obedience. Once we have committed the situation to God, we must then step out in faith and obey what He has called […]

Researchers estimate that we make nearly a billion decisions in our lifetime. While most of these are subconscious and minor, some decisions have the power to alter the course of our lives. As followers of Christ, we face daily choices to either surrender to God's will or assert our own. Often we're afraid to obey […]

It's easy to stand in a worship service surrounded by other Christians and sing, “Lord, I trust in you alone,” but is that really true of us in life's hardest moments? When unexpected and unwanted circumstances come our way, are we immediately flooded with fear, or have we learned to rest in God's sovereignty, fully […]

Imagine being torn from your home and thrust into a foreign land where Christianity is despised. Would you proclaim your faith in Christ or hide it to survive? Why did Esther choose to conceal her faith and do things clearly forbidden by God? Her choices challenge us to examine our own lives, realizing we might […]

Does it ever feel like God is absent during life's chaos? Have you wondered if He is involved in the mundane details of your existence? God often moves in ways we cannot perceive or understand, but always remember that just because God is silent, it does not mean He is absent. The question is, can […]

Time. It’s a word we use everyday. It’s also a word used often in Scripture. But have we ever focused on the significance God gives to it? Do we view it the way He wants us to view it? And even more than that, are we faithfully stewarding the time God has given us? Join […]

What gives you certainty in such an uncertain world? How do you keep your fire for God alive when weariness or doubt set in? The Bible paints a vivid picture of a day when Christ will return to eradicate evil and rescue His people. Until then, we must live in this broken world, and the […]

Have you ever found yourself going through the motions of Christianity without truly engaging your heart? Our relationship with God can easily turn into empty routines and religious rituals, so we must guard against this subtle danger. God desires our spiritual service to flow from a vibrant relationship with Him, not from forced habits or […]
