Finding Your People in an Isolated World
When we lean into the way God has called us to live in the context of community, we find that we’re most full, satisfied, and closely able to walk with Him.
Expectations in Marriage with Dr. Paul Tripp
The biblical view of marriage is that it's a flawed person married to another flawed person in a fallen world, but with a faithful God. If you don't consider that fact before going into marriage, then you’ll be shocked when that person disappoints you.
Taking Responsibility vs. Blaming Others
Taking responsibility allows you to choose joy and hope. It doesn’t mean that others shouldn’t have consequences for wrongful actions, but it means you get to live out the truth of the gospel by extending the same forgiveness to others that God has extended towards you.
The War for Your Faith with John Mark Comer
