Do you love Jesus? And how do you know? Love. It is a word that we often throw around flippantly. But do we understand the weight of what we confess? Jesus says, “If you love me, you will keep my commands” (John 14:15).

What does it mean to be a follower of Jesus? Recently, while watching a sermon online, I was reminded of the weight of walking in the footprints of Jesus: impressions that could never be filled but direct us from one step to the next. They lead us to the way of truth, repentance, healing, and…

The New Year always brings a fresh atmosphere and perspective. Anticipation and excitement are high as we envision what the year will bring. We set goals and vow to keep them. Sometimes, we’re successful, and other times, we aren’t. But this year, as we embark on a new journey, I want us to remember the…

Run the race. That is exactly the feeling this time of year typically conveys. Many are focused on finishing this year off strong. There is a sense of hurry and expectation, eagerly awaiting the ball to drop in Times Square. We anticipate the year ahead and plan accordingly with big goals and a massive vision.…

Nothing is impossible. These words ring true from Genesis to Revelation. Time after time and from generation to generation, God proves His sovereignty through His Word.

He descended from heaven to save the very same people who would persecute and crucify Him. However, as he walked the earth and lived among His…

More than 2000 years ago, Jesus was born in the flesh. He descended from heaven and embodied His creation, a creation God the Father called good, yet they still sinned. He lived a perfect and uncorrupted life surrendered to the Father. Fully God but fully man, He was tempted but did not sin. He became…

We need a heart check. Our hearts reveal the true condition of our walk with God, uncovering our motives, intentions, and beliefs. This is not something we can properly do on our own (Jeremiah 17:9). We need the conviction and counseling of the Holy Spirit (John 14:16). Every day you should ask, Does God have…

Who is Jesus to you? Is He a figment of a cultural tradition that you were raised in? Or perhaps a man who once roamed the earth and was regarded as a prophet? Is He someone you sometimes pray to but doubt if you believe in? Is He only your savior or is Jesus your…
