Two years ago, we returned to live in America, and I was interviewed on a national radio show which included a phone-in Q&A session. The producer said before my interview, “Becky, I know you and your husband have done evangelism ministry all over the world, and that recently you have lived and ministered in Europe. […]

How Your Treasures Control the Desires of Your Heart by Adam Miller
Read: Matthew 5-7 Do you want to be more like Christ? The question seems pretty straightforward. I’m sure you would answer, “Yes!” But if we are honest, we have to admit that we struggle with our sanctification. Sure, you want to be better witnesses, but when is the last time you actually shared your faith? […]
Follow Me, And I Will Make You Fishers of Men by Dr. Larry Moyer
Read: Matthew 4:18-22 Acknowledging Christ as Savior means coming to Him as a sinner, recognizing He took my punishment on a cross, and trusting Him alone as my only way to heaven. Discipleship is a growing experience in which I surrender myself to His will, walk in obedience to Him, and allow Him to use […]
Advent With Children
“Please don’t say we need to color this candle purple too.” That was the report from one of my second grade students as we worked through the Advent calendar coloring sheet for Advent Week 3, which occurred last Sunday, the third Sunday of Advent. There was a palpable sense of relief when she discovered that […]
The Intrinsic Glory of God by Dr. Steven Lawson
When we speak of God’s glory, we mean, first, what has been called His ‘intrinsic glory,” which is the sum total of the greatness of His divine being. It is all that God is, the whole of all of His attributes. In this sense, we do not give God glory. We cannot add to His […]
Will the Church Be On the Right Side of History? by Adam Miller
Statistics show that the Church in the West is in decline. European nations are quickly becoming unreached people groups.

God Feels, So Should You by Courtney Reissig
I’ve always had a rocky relationship with my feelings. I’ve spent a lot of my adult life wrestling with these emotions that seem so potent and real, with a perception that to feel too deeply signified a lack of faith. Am I faithless when I ask God “how long”? Can I still say I trust […]
When the Nations Rage | Psalm 2
Read: Psalm 2 Read: Revelation 5 I think it is safe to say that, as a result of a confluence of crises, tensions are high. Really high. There seems to be a collective concern with what is happening globally. It’s no wonder that there are riots on the streets. The surface tension has broken. You […]
How Long, Oh Lord?: The Expectation Of Hope By Micah Lovell
For thousands of years, the book of Psalms has been one of the go-to locations for Christians in times of crisis. The ancients lived extremely difficult lives, enduring hardships that we take for granted in the modern day. But those of us living in the 21st century still endure hardships, though of a much different […]
Gospel Hope For a Weary Mom by Sarah Walton
I rose before the sun and made my coffee, desperate for time in God’s Word before the day’s chaos erupted in my home. I was emotionally weary and physically exhausted, but was determined to start my day off with what I knew I needed most – time with the Lord. So I grabbed my Bible, […]
A Word to the Wise by Adam Miller
Have you ever completely ignored the advice of your parents, only to end up regretting it later on in life? I broke my big toe while on a short term mission trip in Kenya when I was fifteen. When I went to the hospital to get a cast, they told me I would have to […]
