Good News
The gospel is good news for all people. We should not do anything to confuse or pervert it. We should not add to it. We should not make it more difficult through adding rules or condemnation. We should not exclude those unlike us. In fact, we should go out of our way to eliminate the distractions and let the simple truth shine through. The gospel is meant to be good news for all people of all cultures. Continue reading
Stealing Freedom
The focus of true Christianity is not performance, but walking with God in a close intimate relationship. It’s not about rule keeping to look spiritual, but about serving God because I love him. It’s a journey where I know that I am loved by God through it all, and where he comes alongside each step of the way to help me on my way. Continue reading
Purer Than Gold
The conventional wisdom, illustrated by Bildad and Eliphaz, assumes that the tests come because of our disobedience. Job reminds us that this is not always the case. Sometimes the tough times are tests of our faith given to us so we can grow and mature in the faith. Continue reading

Worthless Physicians
There will come a day for encouraging words. There will come a time for advice. There will come a day when words will be welcome. Until then, be there–fully there. Listen. Pray. Be the friend we all need in these difficult times. Continue reading
Finding Your Place
God has a place of service for you. A place where your passion, experience, and giftedness comes together to meet a need. You are a unique but important piece of the puzzle that will not be complete until you find your place. Continue reading
All Things to All People
We have a message for all ages, for all peoples, for all languages and cultures. Let us seek to understand those we are communicating with, so we can better relate the gospel to them in ways that best communicate the truth. Continue reading
Hope for the Hopeless
Despite our failures, our attempts to distance ourselves from God, our deliberate disobedience, our drifting from the principles of his word, God is still faithful and forgiving. He is a God of grace and mercy. He is a God of hope (Rom. 15:13). He doesn’t give up on his people—even the ones who seem hopeless. People like you and me. Continue reading
Reckless Abandon
Still haunted by his confrontation by the risen Christ on the road to Damascus, Paul wants to finish the task he has given: to preach the gospel to those who haven’t heard. His life-changing encounter forever altered the course of his life and ministry. He refused to give up on the task now. Continue reading

Rest
Jesus too, calls us to give up our striving and find rest in our relationship with him. Continue reading

Open your heart to Jesus. No holding back. No religious games. Authenticity is the road to life lived to the full. Continue reading
