Comfort For The Uncomfortable — A Devotional Look At Romans 8

Contributed by Andrew Senesac on Nov 12, 2025

Romans 8 is both highly theological and highly practical. In it Paul discusses the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives. I have followed Paul’s example and this outline reflects both that theological and practical nature.

Therefore… No condemnation (v.1) I. Paul looks back over all he’s said from chapter 3 till now. He’s laid out the Gospel in both its Justification (ch. 3-5) and Sanctification (ch. 6-8). He concludes with the truth of our sanctification. This truth is both legal and practical: I. Legal - ...read more

Getting Faith By Fasting Day-Nine Devotional Series

Contributed by Elmer Towns on Feb 27, 2026

What makes faith great; it’s not the strength of your faith, it’s the strength of the God in whom you put your faith.

The Daniel Fast is a faith vow. Daniel began his 10-day fast with a statement of faith that God would hear and answer. In Mark 11:22, Jesus exhorts us to, “have faith in God.” Now faith can be nebulous because it’s hard to measure. The faith of our hearts shows strong belief in God, strong ...read more

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Aug 14, 2020

Why were the Pharisees wanting to try to trick Jesus? The reason why they wanted to try and trick Jesus was because Jesus’s authority rivaled their own! In trying to force Jesus to choose a side, they hoped to get Jesus to incriminate Himself.
