2 Chronicles 22-23; 2 Timothy 4; Jeremiah 24 I’m way behind. So behind, in fact, that rather than trying to catch up, I just reenlisted my heart again and picked up where we are in this week’s reading. We have had a lot of staff changes, and the truth is, it’s just been hard to […]

Recently, while engaging with our reading plan, I was deeply moved by the profound events of Pentecost, as described in Acts 2: “When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where […]

The call to revival is not a pursuit of novelty, glitter, falling down, or any other external thing. The call to revival is the call to come to the Man, Christ Jesus! We’re not after just a little spice in our meetings! We’re after Jesus. We’re after God Himself. So, as a community, I want […]

Genesis 1-2; Mark 1; Job 1 I’ve been rethinking my theology lately, looking at my life and considering the outcome of faith that I see in others. I’ve been listening to and reading different schools of thought, experiencing a good shaking. With all these new thoughts, I’ve been considering the term “holiness.” We know our […]

Micah 4-5; Philemon; Ecclesiastes 10 Recently, my son Judah shared something intriguing with me. He was watching a YouTube video that delved into the book of Philemon, a book I hadn’t deeply considered before. The YouTuber spent 22 minutes exploring the story of Onesimus, and how Paul’s advocacy on his behalf mirrors how Christ advocates […]

Jonah 3-4; Hebrews 12; Ecclesiastes 8 Because the New Covenant often gets preached as an extension of the Old, it can take us years, maybe even a lifetime, to discern that the Good News is actually really good news. If the Gospel has ceased to be good news to you, then let’s look at this […]

March 14 Nehemiah 6-7; 2 Corinthians 2; Proverbs 10 In the raw, unvarnished truth of the Gospel, there’s no room for slickness or concealment. Jesus, in His call to us, demands nothing less than complete surrender—denying ourselves, taking up our crosses, and walking in obedience, even unto death. This call isn’t nestled in the small […]

Guest post by Juniah Ramirez Ezra 2-3; 1 Corinthians 11; Proverbs 3 These were some heavy chapters today. In 1 Corinthians 11, there’s a lot of correction about being together and coming together—not just for the better, but for the worse. The focus wasn’t on the Lord; it was mainly on themselves hindering quite a […]

1 Kings 11-12; Romans 8; Psalm 134 How many believers find themselves still ensnared by the power of sin? How many live burdened under the yoke of condemnation? I know many. Undoubtedly, you do too. Let’s be honest: there are times when we all lose sight of the Truth. The Gospel, in its full splendor, […]

God had prepared me in […]
