Scott Hubbard | The name Wonderful Counselor not only calls to mind Christ’s many wonders. It also puts our hearts at ease when we wonder what he’s doing.
Greg Morse | A house with little children is often a messy house, an untidy house, a house that falls short of a mother’s desires. But oh, what abundance such a house holds.
Clinton Manley | Every Advent, we remember that a child was born into our world to torch the darkness, to banish night, and to be for us the everlasting Light.
David Mathis | God is most honored in us when we are most desirous of him and the future he promises with him.
Greg Morse | Caleb wonders why he isn’t enjoying the Christian life. He had more happiness in the world. What does he do now?
Greg Morse | Under God, why did the ministry of Charles Spurgeon bring so many to saving faith? Partly because he did not shrink from preaching the bad news.

Greg Morse | The unspoken grace in the parable of the prodigal son is that the Father receives a lost son with joy because he sent another Son to bring him home.
Scott Hubbard | All Christians want to look to Jesus, to see him and savor him. But how does this beautiful idea become a practical means of daily strength and joy?

Greg Morse | Timid yet stubborn, weak yet wandering, sheep are not impressive creatures. And neither are we. Yet Christ is not ashamed to be our shepherd.
David Mathis | God is wonderfully, stunningly, sometimes laughably generous. You never will outgive him, but for your joy, he invites you to try.
Scott Hubbard | God gives each of his children gifts to steward for his glory. So, don’t let ungodliness, false humility, or impatience cause you to neglect yours.
Greg Morse | When friends forsake and companions grow scarce, we are left alone with God. In those lonely times, God forges the man.
Marshall Segal | In the war to win the nations, we need not only devoted goers but also sacrificial senders. We need men and women who send for souls, against greed, from joy.
David Mathis | As in the days of the ancient kings, God’s eyes still roam the earth. His target? Weak people who know it, admit it, and ask for his help.
Greg Morse | The voice is the most potent instrument the preacher wields, yet how often do we attend to it, hone it, tune it, seek to make it more worthy of the message it bears?
Greg Morse | When you consider the questions death poses, do they leave you terrified? What comes next?
David Mathis | The Bible may look like a book, but it is far, far more than any other book. It is a living, expansive Library where we hear the very voice of God.
Scott Hubbard | When we are neck-deep in spiritual darkness, joy in God can feel like a beautiful dream we once had. But even groaning after God is better than letting go of him.
Paul
Bless you!Amen.
