Thanksgiving prompts reflection on gratitude, emphasizing the biblical call to be thankful in all circumstances. Despite life’s frustrations, choosing thankfulness fosters joy and peace, as illustrated by Paul’s letters. By focusing on the good, even during hardships, we enhance our relationship with God and cultivate a habit of gratitude that transforms our lives.

Is Salvation a Free Gift?
The notion that “salvation is a free gift” is a truth that gives hope to every believer, but this affirmation has become something of a half-truth that can lead to spiritual complacency. The New Testament is clear that the real “gift” is eternal life through Christ, and it begins now, not at some point in the future. True discipleship involves living out one’s faith and embracing a relationship with God as new creations.
“Got Faith?”
If someone asked you to define faith, how would you reply? According to the dictionary, faith is “complete trust or confidence in someone or something” or “strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof”. Indeed, many people instinctively equate faith with religious conviction per theContinue reading ““Got Faith?””

What is a Christian?
It has been said that “the Gospel is simple enough for a child to understand, but deep enough for you to spend the rest of your life studying it.” I’m not certain where I first heard this notion, but I would argue that the same principle applies to answering the question, “What is a Christian?”Continue reading “What is a Christian?”

“My body, my choice.” There. I said it.

In fact, there are many “ProContinue reading “My body, my choice?”

This is a question that I too have wrestled with in the past, and the fact of the matter is that it isn’t all that difficult to findContinue reading “Choosing Your Church Home”
The Legacy of Ravi Zacharias
Ravi Zacharias was a brilliant man who rarely…if ever…got bested in a debate. In spite of his profound intellect, though, he never came across as egotistical, condescending, or aloof. This combination made Ravi Zacharias an effective, passionate spokesman for his faith, a man who traveled the world proclaiming Christ and the hope that is foundContinue reading “The Legacy of Ravi Zacharias”
