When God’s Will is Different than We Expected
I think we can safely say that everyone’s 2020 turned out differently than they expected. So how do we keep from getting discouraged about next year?
Live in the Light
December is the darkest season of the year. It is no accident that December is when we celebrate the birth of Christ, who came to be the light of the world!
Longing for Christmas
During the weeks leading up to Christmas, we often focus on longing. But why? Longing seems incompatible with a season of light and joy and hope, but it’s actually an essential part of Christmas and our Christian lives as well.
Not in Vain
Whether you live a life of full-time ministry or are a full-time Christian working at a secular job, it can be easy to become discouraged in our efforts to share Christ and serve Him with our lives. But God doesn’t want us to be discouraged!
