Unearned Worth 1:00

15h ago1:00

1:00

Have you ever found yourself trying to earn your place in this world? Well, the truth is, none of us can earn our worth. That’s because worthiness is actually a gift, you don’t earn it. Your existence on this planet. The breath in your lungs. Your very own soul and spirit that inhabit your body. These are all unearned gifts given to us by our lovin…

Shelter and Rest 1:00

1d ago1:00

1:00

In a world full of harshness and hurry, there is one who offers you shelter and rest. Listen to the promise from the Book of Psalms… Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. In my own life I searched for meaning, for rest, for security by looking within myself. But I didn’t find what I needed ther…

Searching for Purpose 1:00

3d ago1:00

1:00

There was a time when I moved from place to place looking for a fresh start, thinking maybe here, maybe now… It took me a long time to discover that my purpose wasn't in a place or a career. It was in a person—a relationship with Jesus, the One who loved me already. Jesus said this in the book of John in the Bible… Remain in me, and I will remain i…

Do you need rest? 1:00

6d ago1:00

1:00

These words of Jesus are for you today. He says… “Are you tired? Worn out?...Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me, work with me—watch how I do it…. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” Do you want…

Every Part of You 1:00

7d ago1:00

1:00

Long ago, King David wrote these words in a song to God, he said... You made all the delicate, inner parts of my bodyand you knit me together in my mother’s womb.Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. Isn’t that beautiful? You’re not an accident, you’re not a coincidence. You have a beautifu…

Are you longing for more? 1:00

8d ago1:00

1:00

Take a moment and reflect on your life. If you’re like most of us, you may find that you’re longing for something more. God speaks these words in the book of Revelation: To all who are thirsty I will give freely from the springs of the water of life. If you feel thirsty for meaning, thirsty for purpose, for fulfillment… then this verse is for you. …

God Sees You Clearly 1:00

9d ago1:00

1:00

Listen to these beautiful lines from Psalm 11… …the Lord is in his holy Temple;the Lord still rules from heaven.He watches everyone closely,examining every person on earth. Whether you’re aware of it or not, God sees you. He is the one who made everything, the creator of the universe, the most powerful one, and He sees you. And not just the outside…

That means you! 1:00

10d ago1:00

1:00

Did you know that the Bible is about you? It’s about so many things, but yes, it’s true! The Bible talks about all the people of the world…our struggle, the love God feels towards us, and the good plans He has for us. When Jesus entered the world as a baby, the angel announced that it was Good News! Not just for a few people, not just for those who…

A Book, a Knife, a Meal 1:00

13d ago1:00

1:00

Has your life ever been changed by a book? I can think of so many books that have influenced my thinking, inspired me, and blessed my life. And I know it might sound crazy, but there is one book that claims to do what no other book can do: To cut into the heart like a double-edged sword, dividing between soul and spirit. To contain the words of lif…

Meet the Author 1:00

14d ago1:00

1:00

Have you ever wondered who wrote the Bible? The Bible is the most well-preserved historical document in the world. It has many authors, and spans thousands of years, but we believe every word of the Bible was inspired by God. It’s not just a book. It’s God’s most direct way of revealing to us who He is, and telling us the story of who we are and wh…

Not Just a Book 1:00

15d ago1:00

1:00

What if I told you the Bible is more than a book—it’s a way for us to know the God of the universe? Listen to this opening line from the book of John… In the beginning, there was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. The “Word” that was with God at the beginning of time was a person- it was Jesus. Jesus is often called “the Word”…

You Are Invited 1:00

16d ago1:00

1:00

What’s the point of the Bible? The Bible does contain instruction, but it’s really not a manual of direction for how to be holy. It’s not a textbook for becoming a spiritual expert. At its heart, the Bible is an invitation to understand who God is, His character and what He cares about. Within its pages, you can get to know Jesus—God made human. An…

How does God communicate? 1:00

17d ago1:00

1:00

How does the God of the universe communicate with humans? Graciously, God spoke to us in human language we can understand. He gave us the Bible—not just a book of history and stories written by humans, but divinely inspired by God. Here’s what the apostle Paul said about his own participation in delivering messages from God… Dear brothers and siste…

Never Gets Old 1:00

20d ago1:00

1:00

Little kids love to hear the same story over and over. And, sometimes, as adults, we just get bored, and we wish they would choose a new story! But there is one story that never gets old. It’s the story that is woven into our very existence. That’s the Gospel! Here it is in a nutshell: Humans are prone to do wrong. God knows this, and He still love…

What is the Good News? 1:00

21d ago1:00

1:00

The Bible tells us the true story of Jesus coming to earth to rescue us from our sins and to restore us to relationship with our loving creator. Long ago, the prophet Isaiah wrote… How beautiful on the mountainsare the feet of the messenger who brings good news,the good news of peace and salvation,the news that the God of Israel reigns! He is talki…

Who God Is, Who You Are 1:00

22d ago1:00

1:00

Humans learn best through stories, and the Bible is the wonderful true story of who God is and who we are in this world. As the most well-preserved historical document in the history of the world, the Bible provides us with a trustworthy account of the Israelite people, and of the covenants God has made with humanity. It gives us context for our ow…

God, Revealed 1:00

Listen to the words of Psalm 19… The heavens proclaim the glory of God.The skies display his craftsmanship.Day after day they continue to speak;night after night they make him known.They speak without a sound or a word;their voice is never heard.Yet their message has gone throughout the earth,and their words to all the world. The natural world reve…

We live on words? 1:00

24d ago1:00

1:00

I read an article the other day and learned that when you hear a good story, your brain actually experiences it as though you’re right there, living it yourself. So, what’s the greatest story ever told? The story of Jesus, of course! The story of the Gospel. A true story. It gives an account of real events. And it’s true in terms of what it means f…

Everywhere You Go 1:00

27d ago1:00

1:00

Listen to this powerful verse from the Gospel of Matthew: Chapter 28, verse 19 says...Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Did you know that the word “go” in this verse means something closer to “as you go along”? That means you don’t have to travel, necessari…

How can they call? 0:59

28d ago0:59

0:59

Where do you go when trouble comes? Or confusion or uncertainty? When circumstances feel out of control? From my experience, people call out to God in times of crisis. They either beg God for help or they raise their fists in anger and frustration. The interesting thing is that we need to believe God exists to call out to Him. Romans 10 tells us th…

You Are an Ambassador 1:00

29d ago1:00

1:00

Have you ever had to deliver a message on behalf of someone else? Maybe a friend said, “Send my love to the family.” When you deliver messages like these, you’re acting as an ambassador—representing someone who isn’t physically there. Well, God has invited us to be His ambassadors. What an honor. You and I get to be the hands and feet of Jesus in a…

Sorrow 0:59

30d ago0:59

0:59

Sorrow comes to us in different ways. Sometimes, the pain of this world walks through our door and sorrow settles into our souls. But, sometimes our own choices bring sorrow. Psalm 16 tells us that troubles (or sorrow) multiply for those who chase after other gods. The Hebrew word, right there, means pain or wound. Are you wounded? Are you in pain?…

Answer The Call 1:00

1M ago1:00

1:00

I’ll never forget my dad, Luis Palau, telling this story. When he was young, his mother knew he was meant to be an evangelist. After much urging from Grandma, Dad finally said, “Mom, give me a break! I’m waiting for the call.” Well, what was her reply? “The call?! The call went out 2,000 years ago!” She was talking about this, a verse, Mark 16:15 “…

Yes, Even You 1:00

1M ago1:00

1:00

When I was a young man, my addictions and inclination towards bad behavior and bad relationships nearly destroyed me. I was so far from God I never thought I would find my way back. Maybe you’ve heard about Jesus before and thought to yourself, “He would never want me.” You’ll never be perfect. God knows this, and He still loves you. So much so tha…

My daughter recently went to a massive music concert. 60,000 people singing along, thousands of girls enraptured by the production, the lights, and the beauty of this musician. Each identifying with the stories she tells through her songs, feeling seen and known. I couldn’t help but think about how deep the longing is to be known. To be understood …

Start Today 1:00

1M ago1:00

1:00

Has anyone ever told you, “Today’s a gift…that’s why it’s called the present!” Well, it’s a silly old joke; it’s a pun, and puns work because there’s some kind of truth to them, right? If you’ve never made the decision to follow Jesus, maybe today is your day. The gift of new life, eternal life- it was purchased by Jesus, and it is offered to you t…

Who loves the broken? 0:59

1M ago0:59

0:59

How easy it is to love what is beautiful, the powerful, the young. We’re all naturally drawn to this. But who loves the old, the poor, the tired, or the abused? When our bodies are destroyed because of age, or sickness, or addiction? The Creator of the universe- He sees past all of these things. He alone has the power to heal, and to help, and to c…

Nothing Is Too Big 1:00

1M ago1:00

1:00

By the time I was a young adult, I had done so many things I was ashamed of. I didn’t know how to break the cycle. But God was so gracious to me. When I finally reached this breaking point—when the darkness began to really close in on me, God showed me… All of my sin, all of my shame…His sacrifice powerful enough to wash it away. He purged me of al…

This Means You 1:00

Have you ever felt excluded? Like everyone else was wanted, but you were forgotten, not good enough? Listen to this verse, John 3:16-17, “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save t…

No Fear 0:59

1M ago0:59

0:59

If God is your father, you do not live in fear. What are you afraid of today? Failure or loss or loneliness? You might even be struggling with irrational fears. In Romans 8, Paul reminds us that we don't have a spirit of fear, but a spirit of sonship. That just means if you follow Jesus, you’re a child of the Living God, the Mighty God. This is a r…

God’s Love Is Personal 1:00

1M ago1:00

When I was young, I knew I could never compete with my brothers, the twins! They were perfect straight-A students, and I was the family wildcard, always in trouble. After many years of struggling to do better and failing, I discovered…There was someone who already knew me and loved me completely. It’s God. And He has a good plan for your life. As h…

A Spirit of Adoption 0:59

1M ago0:59

0:59

Have you been adopted by God? Human adoption is marked by longing and loss. A family longing for a child steps into a situation and chooses to welcome a child into their family. They choose the child. They do what needs to be done to legally become that child’s forever family. Romans 8 tells us that we’re adopted by God. He wants us. He chose us. A…

Do you ever feel like something's missing in your life? Think about it right now. Maybe something just popped in your head as I asked that question. Or maybe you’re mostly happy except for the rare occasion when you find yourself sleepless, when you're feeling completely worn out. Whatever it is, I want to tell you, there’s someone who knows your d…

Love Tells the Truth 1:00

2M ago1:00

1:00

I’ve said this to myself so many times: Remember, Andrew, you are forgiven. You’re loved by your Heavenly Father. There is a purpose for your life. I have to remind myself of these truths because I’m prone to wander. I wander away from the mercy of God. And easily get discouraged and miss out on the gifts and the thriving life that He has for me, u…

2M ago0:59

The world is a big and interesting place! One of my greatest joys in life is going to places where people may not have heard about the goodness of God. They might not see God as loving. They might have been taught that God is an angry taskmaster or a hard judge. Or He is a god that needs to be appeased. They don’t understand that His love is so dee…

Love Doesn't Hide 1:00

2M ago1:00

1:00

Have you ever purposely hidden your faith? Sometimes we’re aware that people have linked Christ to other people or other ideas or actions that don’t reflect on who Jesus truly is. But the truth of Jesus’ goodness persists. He is good. He is kind. He is loving beyond what we can ever comprehend. And it’s okay if you need to make a clarification abou…

For some reason, God, in His sovereignty, has chosen people to share His message of hope with the world. That’s His plan. Us! You might be listening to me and think: Well, that’s you, Wendy. Not me. I just need to live my life. But if you walk with Jesus, if you know Him, you are called to represent Him to the world. You carry the Light of Life in …

What is loving? 1:00

Think about someone in your life that you love or care about. And when you love someone, you want what’s best for them. You don’t just sit around hoping things work out; you take action. And you talk to them about it, even if it’s tough. You hold out hope for them, even when they do not. If we hold back from sharing the Gospel, thinking that we’re …

No Longer Slaves but Sons and Daughters 1:00

2M ago1:00

Do you ever feel the need to be perfect? Like you can’t rest unless every flaw and failure in your life is fixed? Well, Jesus set us free from that kind of perfectionism. He knows… we will often fail. And we are flawed. And we sin. That’s why He sent His son to purchase our freedom… Galatians 4 says…God sent him to buy freedom for us who were slave…

At the beginning of time, God created light. And from that moment on, He has been and always will be the light of the world. Light makes things clear; light exposes, it guides, it reveals, and it penetrates. AND light is always stronger than the darkness. At the end of time, when we’re with the King in eternity, we’re told there will be no need for…

What has been holding you back in life? Are there old habits, old ways of thinking, things that you just return to over and over that you know are weighing down your life? 1 Corinthians says… When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things. I want to challenge you today to let go of th…

God Is Not Just a Good Idea 0:59

God is not just a good idea... a better way to live. God isn't just offering a list of principles or moral values. God isn't an add-on to your disciplined life or your perseverance. His way, His rule, His lordship are everything.Romans 3 tells us that "ALL (of us) have sinned and fall short of God's glory." That means we all fall short of His stand…

And as we look toward the start of a new calendar year, there is no time like the present to make a fresh start in life. Just like cleaning out and getting rid of old clothes, do the same with old ha…

We can’t see the wind, but we see the effects and the impact of the wind. We weren’t in Bethlehem when the King was born. We didn't see a mother labor and deliver a tiny baby- The ONE who would be Messiah, King of the world. We didn't see thousands and thousands of angels singing, “Glory to God in the highest!” But thousands of years later, we see …

Your Shepherd 1:00

This Christmas, I hope you feel the love and guiding presence of Jesus. As we celebrate the miracle of His birth—God in human form—let’s remember that He was not only born to be the Savior of the world. He came to be a shepherd to His people- to you and to me. In Matthew 2, the priests reported this ancient prophecy, terrifying the evil king who wa…

God Humbled Himself 0:59

How is it that the God of the universe became so small? He entered the world as a tiny baby. What a miracle! Dependent, needy, vulnerable… The creator of all lowered Himself to come. What kind of King would do this? He is a King who had nothing to prove, who simply made a way through this act of humility and obedience, sacrifice and suffering. God …

Born of a Virgin 1:00

Christmas is a season of miracles and expectation. The birth of Jesus was not a complete surprise to the Jewish people; they’d been waiting for a savior to come for a long time.

God Is a Rock 0:59

God is a rock- unmoving, stable, secure, a shelter, a refuge, a place of stability and safety. Not a mountain far off in the distance, looming and unreachable or unscalable. But a place of power available to every one of us. Over and over again, the Psalmists in the Old Testament, cry out to God. And they say, My God, my rock, will you help me? You…
