“In the second half of John 10:10, Jesus Christ said that he came so that we might have life more abundantly. He did not say we would have a life free from challenges or suffering. It is available to have a life of abundance and victory in spite of temporary hardship or loss. God is there to help us and heal us even if we do not recognize it at the time.” I Corinthians 15:57 says, “But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” As believers, we always believe for and expect the best. But what about those times in life when things don’t go the way we expect th
“Complete healing is God’s will for our lives, but if it takes time to see full deliverance, we can endure in our believing until we see it, thanking and praising God for every small victory along the way.” The decision to make Jesus lord and savior in our lives and to believe that God raised His Son from the dead gives us new life, complete wholeness in all categories. When we are in need of healing, we can go to God. As Rev. Marcia Greene shows in her article “When Healing Takes Time,” God gave us numerous examples in His Word of those who endured to deliverance. Healing may take time. But w
“As we teach our children principles of God’s Word, they will develop a godly character that will enable them to be a beacon of light in every social interaction. Regardless of their age, their manner of living can reflect God’s goodness, grace, mercy, patience, tenderness, and love.” As Christian parents, we know we should teach God’s Word to our children. But what about etiquette? Where do etiquette and God’s Word meet? How do we teach etiquette to children? In this episode, Rebecca Stiles, a mother of five, answers these questions. She highlights godly principles to teach children as well a
“As you prepare to share the Word, believe for God to put people in your life that you can positively influence. And remember, it’s God’s goodness, not your personality type, that leads people to repentance....It’s His Word, not yours, that reconciles others back to Him....” Are you an introvert? If so, then perhaps you have felt ill qualified to effectively witness to others. In this episode, Laura Mittler highlights the strengths introverts have that can help them win others to Christ, and she gives three practical keys that can help introverts and extroverts do the work of an evangelist.

“People influence one another through interactions and discussions. It’s important for us to surround ourselves with people who want God’s best for our lives.” In the Teen Space article “Becoming Wise,” Vinson Bartley contrasts the habits of the foolish with the habits of the wise. As he shows, the Book of Proverbs has a lot to say about forming godly habits.

“Each day we have the opportunity to live differently, to put off the old and put on the new, reflecting our spiritual transformation.” In this episode, Sharon Mortensen opens Ephesians 4:17-32 to show how our spiritual transformation—going from death to life—gives us every reason to live differently.

“To this day, God fulfills His promise to those who honor their parents. The love, support, and care we give our father and mother will be rewarded with a long life on this earth.” In this episode, David Schiano reads his article “Corban.” He brings to life a vivid moment from the Gospels—when Jesus Christ confronted a Pharisaic tradition that placed human tradition above God’s commandment—and helps us see how honoring our parents is a lasting way to honor God Himself. Through careful study of Mark 7:9-13, Exodus 20:12, Ephesians 6:2,3, and I Timothy 5:4, David traces how the misuse of the vow
“The scriptural evidence is clear: the manifestations of holy spirit did not cease with the original apostles.” Many Christians today wonder whether the spiritual power described in the Book of Acts is still at work in our time. In this episode, Rev. Bryan Mittler examines one of Christianity’s most enduring questions: Did the nine manifestations of the spirit end with the apostles, or are they still available to believers today? Guided by the clear record of Scripture, he shows that God never ended these manifestations. And until Christ's return, they will continue to empower every generation

But with spiritual awareness and the

“I was shocked one night when a friend in college told me, ‘You can’t believe in God and free will.’ This challenging statement led me to explore what God’s Word really teaches about our ability to make choices.” Is it possible to believe in both God and free will?
