    It’s easy to get proud. It’s easy to want to show off. It's too common in the church. Instead, let’s choose to be very humble, serving each other gently.

    I’ve been wrestling with God lately on some things, battling depression, anxiety, even questioning God, his will and purposes. And I’m so grateful for my wife who has been there day in and day out challenging my poor thinking patterns. Reciting God’s word to me. She brings the truth up, and just ...read more

    Do you feel insignificant in your service to God? You may be more powerful than you thought. Or do you feel pretty secure? You may be more in need and weak than you thought. Take some advice from Philadelphia and Laodicea.

    Even as the Philadelphian church doesn’t receive even one rebuke - the church at Laodicea receives not one commendation - the contrast couldn’t be more stark - and that’s not the only contrast we’ll see as we compare these two churches. -The church at Philadelphia was small in appearance but ...read more
