The gospel is simple, but it’s not simplistic. It requires our whole life, but begins with a simple “yes” to Jesus. The power of the cross isn’t found in eloquent words or clever theology, but in the life-giving, world-changing truth that Jesus saves. In a world filled with noise, distractions, and complications—even in the Church—it’s […]
For those who have EARS to HEAR! What does it reveal about a society when it begins to devalue human life—even celebrating the harm or murder of those it disagrees with? We are living in a time when anger and hatred are normalized, even glamorized. Jesus tells us that hatred itself is the seed of […]
(Reposted from Doug Stringer’s article published in February 2023) Have we become so seared of conscience that we can no longer discern good from evil and evil from good? 1 Timothy 4:1-2 says, “Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and […]

Where the Spirit is welcomed and honored, transformation follows. From the throne of God flows rivers of living water, bringing healing everywhere they go (Ezekiel 47:8–12; Revelation 22:1–2). And where those rivers flow […]
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.” (2 Timothy 4:3–4) Paul was deeply concerned that even […]
