Endurance isn’t about just gritting our teeth and holding on with our own strength. It’s about relying more fully on the God who has already carried us through. His righteousness lasts forever. His promises are sure. If you trust Him, His righteousness will sustain you as well.  Read More

Here is the good news: Jesus promises that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness “will be filled.”  Read More

Jesus, who never sinned, took on our guilt so we could be considered righteous before God. This righteousness is not something we earn through our efforts — it’s a gift we receive through obedient faith.

On Sunday, we’ll see that the kingdom of God comforts the humble but confronts the proud. It reveals that spiritual pride is far more perilous than we realize. And it forces us to ask: Will we receive the kingdom like the desperate, or reject it like the entitled?  Read More

Even in tragedy, God is near. “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted…” (Psalm 34:18). He doesn’t promise a life without storms, but He does promise this: “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you…” (Isaiah 43:2). Why does He allow these disasters?
