Two weeks from today is Christmas Day. This week, I will focus our devotions on being intentional this Christmas Season to focus on Christ.
Read MoreIt is Friday, and you know what that means? A devo about a SONG!
Read MoreJesus came forward and identified Himself to those seeking to arrest Him. On the cross, He gave up His Spirit; death didn't take it from Him. Jesus was always initiating His love story for us.
Read MoreHow amazing is it to know that while Jesus was still on earth, He prayed for YOU?!
Read MoreAs followers of Jesus, the revelation of eternal life from John 17 is so encouraging and beautiful. I hope it takes you back to the moment where you began a relationship with Jesus.

Read MoreIn the New Testament, we learn that we are each now the temple of God. Every Christian is a temple of the Holy Spirit.
Read MoreDo you remember what happened in the Temple after Jesus died on the cross? The veil was torn. All sin had been atoned for, once and for all.
