Caught up in our vision for the end goal, it can be easy to grow impatient with the baby steps along the way. But little by little, those baby steps get you where you're going. What small steps can you take toward your goals?

Easter Sunday marks the greatest event in history, Jesus conquering death. While celebrating Easter is good, we must remember the events that led to this climactic victory so we don't miss the depth of the its meaning.

Hope is a critical component to life. It inspires us to continue to work, to struggle, to try. But what is more than hope is the source of our hope. Is your hope anchored to the infallible promises of God?

Are you looking to go deeper in your intimacy with God, but struggling to find the right motivation? Consider these five simple steps to help you get back on track!

Closets seem like such an insignificant part of your home, that is until you consider everything they hold. Could it be time to allow God into your personal closet for some deep cleaning?

There is nothing casual or superficial about following Jesus. We are called to be devoted, but it is hard to be deeply devoted without a significant devotional life. What are you doing to practice devotion to Christ in your life?

Life is like a marathon. People cheer us on in the beginning, and when we cross the "finish line,” we are congratulated. The problem lies in the long distance between start and finish. We cannot finish strong without proper refreshment. Do you need some encouragement today?

Financial, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual growth are things we all want, right? Perhaps not. We want the end result of growth, but many of us are not willing to endure what is required to actually grow. How much do you really want growth?

From blossoming spring flowers, to long summer nights, to the changing fall leaves, to the cozy winter days spent by the fire, every season has something to offer. The same can be said of the seasons of life. The seasons of our lives do not escape God's notice. In fact, He is weaving them into the glorious design and purpose He has for us.

I am grateful God made us to experience romantic love, but the huge emphasis on this kind of love on Valentine’s Day always makes me think of how incomplete it really is. Romance may be fun and sweet, but true love originates from God and is what we really long for.

Do you ever have those nights when you spend long periods wide awake... and anxious? Our problems seem more unmanageable in the middle of the night; but there is a more important truth to remember. The "Night Watchman" is keeping watch over our souls.

By now, many people have already abandoned their New Year resolutions. If this is you, know this: You may have failed, but you are not defeated. “A righteous man falls seven times, but rises again” (Prov. 24:16). Are you ready to reboot your resolutions?

Have you ever responded in a way that made others mistake you for a non-believer? Our identity is not determined in church service, but more likely in times of stress and difficulty. These are God-given opportunities to show what it means to be a "new creation in Christ." Where does your true identity lie?

We may not know what was happening in Jesus' life one week after his birth, but one thing we do know is that he was wrapped in swaddling cloths. But why would that matter? Perhaps God uses ordinary things communicate extraordinary signs.

There are many things we can learn about God from the details of His birth. One of those is the amazing combination of tenderness and strength represented in Baby Jesus.

Most people don’t like to wait. It is not much fun and often feels like we are wasting time. Scripture doesn’t teach us how to handle automatic answering devices, but it does suggest the attitude we should have when waiting.

As this weekend marks the second Sunday of Advent, let us celebrate, as we prepare ourselves to re-live the moment of indescribable beauty when the God of the universe became a beautiful baby.

The idea of making a joyful noise to the Lord is often associated with singing, but our "noises" don't always have to be audible. When we live a life pleasing to God, we truly begin living loud.

We cannot decide to finish well just when finish line is within sight. Instead, we must plan ahead and be men and women of integrity in all seasons of our Christian walk. Are you on the path to finishing well?
