Look at the Book

People can annoy us with their needs. Our selfishness transforms loved ones into inconveniences. But God calls us to more than begrudging hospitality.

Others’ sin confronts us daily, and daily we must choose how to respond to it. Denial dismisses their sin, indifference ignores it, anger attacks it, bitterness buries it — love alone covers it.

Psychologists cannot counsel him. Philosophers cannot instruct him. Billionaires cannot add to his treasures. He owns all, funds all, receives all. To him be praise forevermore.

The world as we know it passes away, we must then be people who watch and pray.

Sexuality, worldliness, Netflix, and all kinds of distractions compete daily for our thoughts. We cannot give our minds over to the enemy — we must think hard to the glory of God.

We live in a peculiar age: battles rage but the war is won, spring dawns and summer looms, Christ came and is coming back.

Even as Christians, sin still lingers in our shadow. How do we pray for the light of God’s grace to expel our darkness?

The Bible says that the gospel was “preached to the dead” (1 Peter 4:6). Does this mean that someone can hear the gospel and repent after death?

Jesus tells us to love our enemies, but how can we when real injustice is committed against us?

Without holiness you will not see the Lord. Without knowing what holiness means you may never attain it. So what does it really mean to be holy?

With calloused hands and sweaty brow, the Christian rests knowing that his labor in Christ is not in vain.

Pride is a recipe for disaster. But God's luscious logic cooks the cuisine of humility.

“Baptism now saves you?” What in the world does 1 Peter 3:21 mean?

The Christian life is truly worth living. Following Jesus gives us the opportunity to show a dying world what real life looks like.

You’ve given your sins room and board for long enough. Evict them and follow Jesus into the light.
