Life is full of decision points, forks in the road so to speak, where we’re tempted to settle for a smaller story than the one God wants to write in our lives. So, how do we choose well when we’re facing a fork?

The great paradox of Christianity is that death is the only way to life. Jesus death is the pathway to eternal life for us, and our death to self is the pathway to the lives we were made for.

The book of Acts tells the story of the begging of the “ekklesia” - the church, and gives us a picture of how it’s not meant to be a place but rather a community moving toward a mission.

We need to identify and address the red flags in our lives like bitterness, discontentment, and more before they derail our relationships and our futures.

Jesus came, wrapped in common rags, for common and ragged people just like us. That’s worth celebrating!

Looking at the different names the prophets gave to the Messiah centuries before the first Christmas provides us an amazing picture of who Jesus really is and why he came.

The 1st sermon Jesus ever preached, in Luke 4, gives us a powerful picture of what he came for, and what his people should be living for.

The book of Jude is a powerful challenge to fight for the goodness and beauty of the gospel of grace in a world that constantly seeks to undermine it’s message.

In Christ, we are given completely new identities. We go from being orphaned to chosen, unseen to known, rejected to accepted, condemned to forgiven. These new identities not only mark who we are but change how we live.

We have to live life forwards, but what if we started with the end in mind? How might we live differently if we began with the eulogies we hope for then aimed our choices in that direction?

Proverbs 16:17 says: The highway of the upright avoids evil; those who guard their ways preserve their lives. It’s important for us to guard our ways and pick our highways wisely so that we can walk in the way of the wise.

Something inside us desperately wants to be able to determine our own destiny. But what if the way we’re doing it is wrong? What if, in order to really take hold of hope we have to actually let go of our control issues?

Family is a beautiful gift, but navigating family relationships can get pretty chaotic. It takes intentionality in a few important areas in order to claim the future for our families we long for.

He is risen! Jesus not only gave his life to pay the penalty for our sin, but he conquered death from the inside so we could live. That’s why Easter is the best day of the year!

Samson was a hero and a villain, and sometimes a little bit of both. His life has a lot to teach us about the ways God wants to use our strength and also about the temptations that make strong people weak.

There are times in all of our lives where it seems like God’s plans and provision have simply dried up. In those moments, we can learn a lot about how to move forward toward purpose from Elijah’s experiences in 1 Kings 17-19.

When Cortez landed in the new world he issued a simple command to his men, “Burn the ships!” in order to ensure that retreat wasn’t an option. If we’re going to claim the futures God has for us, there are some ships we need to burn so that we never turn back.

Christmas is Jesus, showing up to say, “You wanna know how much I love you? I love you from a throne of endless glory to a cradle in the dirt. I love you from Heaven to earth. I love you from Christmas to the cross. I love you from swaddling cloths to grave clothes, I love you from life to death and back to life again!”

When you’re facing a mess too big to fix by yourself, you can either pretend everything is okay or you can get help. In our world full of violence, hatred, and division, Christmas is a reminder that peace is real if we’ll trust God to fix all the things we can’t.

Prayer can be intimidating. We’re often not sure what to say or how to hear if God says anything back, so we just don’t try. But God invites us to connect with him through prayer, and it’s life-changing when we learn how to do it.

There is only one area where God invites us to put him to the test: our finances. Our wallets often compete with God for the throne of our lives, but he promises if we’ll test him by generously giving resources away, we’ll find blessing and life on the other side.

It’s easy to get caught up in the thinking that God is concerned about our Sundays but less interested in our Mondays-Fridays. But the truth is, we were created to create and made with the ability to generate a better future for the world. So, any work we do that adds value to people is an act of worship that matters a whole lot to God!

We all want to be happy, but sometimes our world hands us a lot of bad ideas about how happiness happens that ultimately lead us in the opposite direction. The Bible, though, has a lot to say about how we can claim the lives we long for.

Sometimes we come back from vacation and immediately get slapped in the face with real life stuff that makes us wanna head straight back to vacation. It is possible, though, to build lives we don’t feel the need to escape.

The wisdom literature in the Bible is a treasure trove of brilliant advice that can help us make smarter choices in the shattered world and, ultimately, leave us with fewer regrets.

First comes love, then comes...baggage. We enter into marriages with all the baggage we’ve accumulated up to that point in our lives, and it takes a lot of care, effort, and intention to take two lives and make them one thriving marriage.

Easter isn’t fair. That’s what makes it beautiful. If we got what we deserve, we’d be cut off from God and one another forever. But Jesus doesn’t do fair. Instead, he stepped out of eternity into the human story to give us life we didn’t deserve!

The book of Colossians is a great reminder that Jesus is the answer for everything. He is supreme. He is sufficient. He is the one who has saved us from sin and in him we can see the true love and nature of God. He is the image of the invisible God.

Regrets. We all have them. We’re sometimes crushed by them. But the Bible has a lot to say about how we can recognize, redeem, and, ultimately, live beyond our regrets by getting a fresh start grounded in grace.

Hope is real and love is real because God keeps every promise God makes. And Christmas is his reminder of that fact!

There are a lot of things in this broken world that leave us weary and even hopeless, and it’s hard when we feel like we’re waiting on God and getting no response. But Christmas is a reminder that joy is possible because God is always working.

We often encounter obstacles that seem impossible to overcome, but what if the walls we think are cutting us off from the lives we long for aren’t impenetrable? What if they’re just paper walls, and we’re made to break on through to the other side?

Have you ever felt stuck? That’s a rhetorical question. We all have, and the inertia that comes with it can sometimes feel crushing. But the journey towards the purpose, meaning, and impact we’re longing for starts with a single step.

David is one of the greatest heroes in history. From beginning to end, the life of a man God called “a man after my own heart” has a lot to teach us about the character that can slay giants and also the giants that can slay character.

Peace is hard to come by in a world full of division, violence, hatred, frustration, imperfection and more. But God actually promises us a “peace that passes all understanding” and, as we seek him, we can truly find that missing peace.
