    In Ezekiel 37, God shows His power to bring life from death. Through Jesus, God brings life to our brokenness, hope to our despair, and revives our spirits. Let's embrace God's Word and the Holy Spirit's presence, stepping out of spiritual death into a life filled with purpose, joy, and eternal significance.

    In times of deep sorrow and mental struggle, it's easy to drown in waves of despair, feeling as if joy has completely vanished. Yet, we can speak hope into our hearts by fixing our gaze on God (Ps 42), trusting that even in the darkest moments, we will once again find strength and praise in Him.

    We comes to points of deep darkness in our lives, but if we can hold fast to faith, we can keep hope.

    Let me begin by acknowledging that this is a difficult passage to hear, as is much of the book of Job. We have a tendency in our modern world to like things to be nice and clean; neat and easy to understand; joyful and upbeat. Job is really none of those things. We tend to try and make Job ...read more

    Mark's ending, unique among the gospels, connects the empty tomb to real-life struggles, as it ends with the women "bewildered and afraid." As we join the women there, we grasp the life-changing impact of the resurrection.
