Leaving a legacy of healthy love by being intentional with our littles… and our bigs.

Cherishing your closest neighbor even when they load the toilet paper backward.

Self love is often dismissed or misunderstood, especially among followers of Christ, who are called to put the interests of others above our own. But if true love is self-giving, it only follows our self must be healthy, whole and loved.

We often tie “love” to feelings of love. But love has much less to do with feelings than action: to wish, will and work for the good of another.

As families spend more concentrated time together than perhaps ever before, patience wears thin and nerves can fray. Learn how your family can survive and thrive in this challenging season.

What does it look like to follow Jesus when we're unable to gather with other believers for a weekend service?

Praying like a pro means remembering we're engaged in battle, and praying for God's protection as we take ground.

Pro-level prayer involves praying for forgiveness--both to receive it from God, and to extend it to others.

An important part of praying like a pro is remembering our dependence on God's provision.

To pray like a pro we need to evaluate the fundamentals: what's our motivation in prayer?

The first step in praying like a pro is making sure we have an accurate understanding of the God to whom we pray.

This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.

No, O people, the Lord has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.

Among the losses we've grieved over the past month is the loss of our ability to celebrate. This Mother's Day, many of us are grappling with the disappointment of unmet expectations for ourselves and the people we love.

In this post-coronavirus age, the specter of the unknown looms large. What happens when our sense of certainty has vanished?

Despite the prevalence of Zoom calls and endless streams of social media, we're grappling to regain what we've lost in terms of personal connection.
