Glorify God: 1 Corinthians 10:31
1 Corinthians 10:31 says, “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.” We all have a purpose, regardless of our position, gender, race, or financial status: to glorify God. To glorify means to honor, praise, and make to look good. When we glorify God, we are… Continue reading Glorify God: 1 Corinthians 10:31
Bought With a Price
What was the last thing you spent money on? Did that item meet your expectations? What if it didn’t? Our money is valuable to us. It is something we need and it never seems like we have enough of it.

Church Hurt
I wanted to take the time to share our personal experience of church hurt. It was not very severe or drastic, thankfully, however, I do feel like it may help someone.

A Hard Truth
Most of us want others to be honest with us in all situations. At least that is what we say. What about when the truth is hard? Life-changing? Some truths are easier to hear and accept than others. However, if the truth is truth, then it is always what we need to hear. One of… Continue reading A Hard Truth

If you are a born-again child of God, you already have a firm foundation: the Lord Jesus Christ. How you build from there is up to you. 1 Corinthians 3:12-15, “Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day… Continue reading What are You Building With?
Who Said it Wouldn’t be Hard?
Too often we hope for the blessings and mountaintops of Christianity and choose to despise the valleys. Valleys are often dark, lonely, cool, damp, uncomfortable, and there’s only one way out: through it. The valleys are not something we would ever ask or hope for. But, as you’ll learn, we can’t live without them. Sadly,… Continue reading Who Said it Wouldn’t be Hard?
