KEEP THE FAITH, CHANGE THE WORLD

When times are hard, it can be very tempting to hold on to the world and let go of the faith.

But with the reality of the resurrection and the power of the Holy Spirit, he learned how to do just the opposite - to keep the faith and change the world

In his letter to Jesus believers scattered abroad, Peter reveals not only how to keep the faith in difficult circumstances but also how to change the world by...

Christmas is about the birth of a King - and the coming of a kingdom

At Christmas, we celebrate the first coming of King Jesus, when He established the kingdom of God. But we also keep an eye toward the...

GOD WANTS YOU WELL

RENEW YOUR HEART TO THE RHYTHMS OF GOD

The psalms of the Bible are powerful expressions of the heart of faith in covenant with God, and of the heart of God in covenant with His people.

THERE IS ALWAYS JOY

Paul was in prison. The Jesus believers at Philippi were facing increasing persecution. Add to that an undercurrent of personal disagreements and division in the fellowship, and things were not looking very bright. Yet Paul said, "Rejoice in the Lord always." There is always joy, and in his letter to the church at Philippi, Paul shows us how to find it.

Joy saturates this letter. It shows up in unexpected turnarounds in the midst of difficult circumstances. It is found in knowing Jesus in His humble, self-giving servanthood, in the power of...

GOD'S WORD IN YOUR MOUTH IS JUST AS POWERFUL AS IT IS IN HIS WHEN YOU SPEAK IT IN FAITH

Bold, expectant faith changes the world. It is how Joshua and Caleb succeeded where so many others failed, and ended up in the Promised Land.

It is how Paul learned to overcome the challenges set before him and finished his race with joy. In this book, you will learn about the dynamics of faith that accomplished all these things, and more ...

• How the Word of God...

A manger, as someone succinctly put it, is a wooden structure large enough to hold the Bread of Life. See how this common stable fixture is lifted up to a place of sacred significance. But looming in the midnight shadows of the manger, there is the figure of the Cross. Like the manger, it is a wooden structure large enough to hold the Bread of Life. The manger is a symbol of joy, but a very peculiar joy, for even as we celebrate Christmas, we know that the day of Crucifixion is also at hand. In these meditations for Advent and Christmas, come and consider the King who was born in a stable,...
