On the Alert

September 16, 2024 by Carol C. Filed Under: Blog 5 Comments

Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith (1 Peter 5:8-9a, NIV). The apostle Paul warns of Satan’s attack (Ephesian 6:13-18) and he lists the defensive armor of God that we should be using…

Taking Our Speech Seriously  

September 2, 2024 by Isabella Filed Under: Blog 6 Comments

The past few months I’ve been making a new effort to take my speech seriously. My efforts originally came from making sure I was only contributing Christ-honoring speech if a conversation I was part of turned to gossip, judgment, unkindness, etc. But after thinking about it, it only became more relevant as I thought of how we speak to one another day to day amid hostility that has seemed to increase over time.

God’s Good Plans Are Better Than Our Best

August 5, 2024 by Alysa Filed Under: Blog 6 Comments

Lately my husband and I have been talking about life plans, goals and ambition with our grown children. They’re all young adults moving at various stages along their own individual paths of independence. Each is considering various options for the future, pondering what comes next.

The LORD’S Anointed             

August 19, 2024 by Marilyn Filed Under: Blog 2 Comments

Anointing is a biblical practice of smearing or pouring oil on someone or something to symbolize God’s choice, presence, or favor. Thinking about how this applies to us today, I wondered who we would consider “anointed’ in our world; who represents God’s choice in our lives? Hmmm.

My First Love

July 22, 2024 by Kathy C Filed Under: Blog 12 Comments

White Nights was released in 1985 when I turned ten. I had been taking ballet for just a couple of years, but I loved it, and I adored Mikhail Baryshnikov. I’m certainly aging myself so, for all the young readers you need to understand that Baryshnikov was all things amazing. He was born in Latvia and quickly rose to a principal dancer in Russia.

The Parable of the Builders

July 8, 2024 by Holly Filed Under: Blog 3 Comments

In Matthew chapter 7, Jesus teaches about the importance of building one’s life on a firm foundation. He contrasts the wise builder who builds his house on rock with the foolish builder who builds his house on sand. Let’s take a closer look at what this passage teaches us about wisdom and folly in our own lives.

True and False

In the Sermon on the Mount (Matt 7:15-21), Jesus gives instruction about true and false prophets and disciples. This instruction is as applicable today as it was when it was first spoken.

How to Apply Jesus’ Teachings on Judging Others

May 27, 2024 by Holly Filed Under: Blog 6 Comments

Jesus taught his followers not to judge others and to instead show mercy and forgiveness. This teaching is often referred to as the Golden Rule and has been repeated throughout Christian scripture and history. But how do we practically apply this teaching to our daily lives?

On Sleeplessness 

June 10, 2024 by Julia Filed Under: Blog 1 Comment

It was an obscene hour of the night when I came across this poem. I’d been sifting through a list of things weighing on my mind and had altogether given up on falling asleep. Then, thumbing through The Valley of Vision, I discovered a page poignantly titled Sleep—so of course I had to read it.

Don’t Worry (um, ok?)

May 13, 2024 by Holly Filed Under: Blog 6 Comments

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus teaches us not to worry. He says, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear.” (Matthew 6:25) While this is challenging and difficult instruction to follow in our daily lives, it is one that can have profound implications for our spiritual health and well-being.
