Micah 1-3; Hebrews 13; Ecclesiastes 9 First of all, I think Hebrews may be my new favorite book. Reading it through The Passion Translation has been absolutely wonderful this time around. As you may have noticed, the book is not signed by an author. I’ve heard theologians attribute it to Paul, and recently I heard […]

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 […]

Jonah 1-2; Hebrews 11; Ecclesiastes 7 The reality of Heaven is all around us. The message of Jesus is exactly this: “The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” (Matthew 3:2) It’s invisible, yet fully present and fully active. The scriptures tell us plainly that the glory of God covers the earth. (Isaiah 6) This is […]

2 Kings 5-6; Romans 16; Psalm 142 I’m convinced that the root of all our problems, whatever they are, is that for the most part, we are blind men walking. We grope along in our doubt, feeling our way through, scared of every rustle and creak. We need constant bolstering and encouragement to step out […]

Reflecting on Romans 14, we see a clear directive: “Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him.” Who are we to judge another’s servant? Each person stands or falls before their own master, […]

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, […]

Guest Post: Juniah Ramirez 1 Kings 1-2; Romans 3; Psalm 129 Romans 3:21-24 ESV“But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for […]

Guest writer: Juniah Ramirez Leviticus 24-25; Romans 1; Psalm 127 (Romans 1:21)For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. I found today’s Bible reading to be quite impactful. Despite not being a child, […]

Leviticus 22-23; Acts 2; Psalm 126 Do you remember how lost you were when God found you? Do you remember how dark it was when His light broke into your pain? Somehow, after years of living in the light, we forget. We forget where we were. We forget that we didn’t bring one good thing […]

Exodus 14-15; Matthew 10; Psalm 106 Deliverance is dangerous business! Coming out of slavery, being chased down by your angry captors, is not for the faint of heart. Of course, you already know that! I know you remember those days when you were finally and suddenly liberated from some addiction that had nearly destroyed your […]
