A Season of Love
Christmas is most of all a season of love, a celebration of the love of Christ shown by His choosing to come to earth, choosing to humble Himself and take on human flesh. But as wonderful as the manger is, it is only a small piece of the grand display of the love of God for us.
A Season of Joy
We hear a lot about joy during the Christmas season, but where does that joy come from?
A Season of Peace
Christmas is a season that celebrates the gift given by God to mankind: the gift of His perfect peace.
A Season of Hope
The Christmas season is often a season of busyness and hurry, and in the midst of all our preparations it can be easy to lose sight of the hope of which the Christmas season is meant to remind us.
Sheltered Within the Rock
We often assume peace is a result of things going well, and victory comes from effort, but the Bible tells us that peace and victory are both gifts from God, and both come from resting in the shelter of His presence.
Thankfulness: a Weapon Against Temptation
We often quote James 1:17 when counting our blessings, yet the context of the verse holds a powerful truth about thankfulness and its role in the fight against temptation.
Tried by the Word
It is easy to assume that Joseph never wavered, never wrestled with his faith during his many afflictions, but Psalm 105 gives us a glimpse into a behind-the-scenes struggle that you and I also face at times.
Make it Count
We each have a set number of days on this earth. The challenge for the Christian is to make our time count for Christ.
Majestic, Yet Personal
The God of the Bible is transcendent, majestic, and holy—And yet, He is also our Shepherd, lovingly, personally involved in our day-to-day lives. For the saved in Christ, keeping both these truths about God in balance is crucial to our relationship with Him.
