How To Share Your Faith

By Josh Reich on Jul 16, 2022

Inviting someone to church or sharing your faith about Jesus can be awkward. It is nerve wracking, scary and often times not what many followers of Jesus want to do. Yet, the reality is if you are a follower of Jesus, you are to be a witness of Jesus. (Acts 1:8) That is a key and crucial piece of your new identity in Christ. It is not optional.

Scripture: Acts 1:8

Embracing All Saints: Dia De Muertos And Its Christian Significance

By Josh Read on Oct 29, 2025

As we approach late October, various cultural traditions emerge in communities across the United States. Among them, Dia de Muertos (Day of the Dead) stands out, celebrated with vibrant colors, marigolds, and a deep reverence for those who have gone before us. It’s easy to see this Mexican holiday as just a cultural event, yet for believers, it points to something greater: remembering those who came before us, giving thanks for God’s faithfulness, and celebrating our shared life in Christ.

The Prayer I Have Prayed Most

By SermonCentral .com on Aug 24, 2022

I suppose, in my little prayer nook in my study, where I have a little prayer bench that I built in 1975, as I’ve bent over that bench thousands of times, the most common prayer has been, “Lead me not into temptation. Deliver me from evil (see Matthew 6:13). Keep me. Keep me. I feel so utterly unable to do the next thing. My kids are at the breakfast table. I have nothing. I’m supposed to model joyful fatherhood, and I’m so depressed I can hardly remember their names. Help me.”
