Greg Morse | God offers free forgiveness to all who will confess and forsake their sins — meager terms for tremendous mercy. What are you waiting for?
David Mathis | Abortion is not simply wrong. For those who have God’s word, and observe Satan’s devices, abortion is profoundly, diabolically anti-God and anti-Christ.
Clinton Manley | The spirit of abortion stands against the heart of God. Abortion sacrifices the weak to the will of the strong; God sacrifices himself to rescue the weak.
Scott Hubbard | For all the differences between Pharaoh’s infanticide and America’s abortion, both end in a heap of dead children. And often, both arise from the same ungodly ambition.
Marshall Segal | Recent pro-life decisions have not forced abortions to fade away. When our country kills children by the millions, what should be our response?
Clinton Manley | When the allures of the world tempt us with ease and comfort, Scripture holds out better promises in every way. Taste and see that God’s word is good.
Greg Morse | There are many things we can approach casually, but God’s word is not among them. The Maker of worlds and Redeemer of souls deserves far more than flippant attention.
Brian Tabb | What can you do when reading the Bible feels more bewildering than edifying? Pray for illumination. Ask questions for insight. Read books for instruction.
Gerrit Scott Dawson | When you sit down in front of God’s word, does pride pull up a chair too? How we respond when we hear from God reveals much about our hearts.
Greg Morse | If you are growing bored with daily bread, longing for the world’s pleasures, and grumbling against God, beware — that is the path to apostasy.
Scott Hubbard | When you sit down to read God’s word and a hundred distractions flit through your mind, how do you fight for attention?
David Mathis | We will experience few, if any, moments of spontaneous joy with friends if we don’t make a habit of being together. The same is true of our relationship with God in his word.
Marshall Segal | Why don’t we read the Bible more often? Many of us say we’re too busy, but what if the real reasons for our neglect go much deeper than that?
David Mathis | At the 250th anniversary of their nation, American Christians have two reasons to add humility to their gratitude: America’s party spirit and the church’s greater allegiance.
Greg Morse | Too often, we imagine pornography as an individual sin, but the cumulative effects are cosmic. Satan loves to use lust to cripple God’s army.
Greg Morse | No problem is too big for God, but our faith may be too small. Sometimes the biggest barrier to freedom is a prayer that begins “If you can . . .”
David Mathis | “Ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.” Why would God attach such a staggering promise to prayer? Because he really wants us to pray.
Scott Hubbard | When you imagine a submissive wife, what kind of woman comes to mind? Is your picture embarrassing — or is it beautiful?
Greg Morse | No matter how hidden sin seems to be, it will always find you. You can’t run from the consequences, but you can hide in Christ from the condemnation.
Greg Morse | When you find yourself in one of life’s caves, shut off from the sun, forsaken by friends, confused and full of sorrow, know that God makes his kings in caves.
David Mathis | For as helpful as fictional heroes can be, Christian parents have no lack of real-life heroes to hold before our kids. Jonathan Edwards is one of them.
Greg Morse | If the damned could speak, they would warn us that delay is deadly. The gospel offer is urgent; tomorrow may prove too late.
Greg Morse | Ministers desire to be fruitful, but the means matter. What can Joshua’s battles at Ai teach leaders about their use of AI?
David Mathis | Our anger easily gets corrupted by our sin. But as the life of Jesus shows, human anger can also be holy, a flare of righteous love for God and man.
Scott Hubbard | However long you’ve been praying for some deep, God-honoring desire, don’t lose heart. Keep asking, seeking, and knocking. Keep praying for a breakthrough.
