Activate Your Faith
“Always obey the Lord and you will be happy. If you are stubborn, you will be ruined.” (Proverbs 28:14 GNB) Faith isn’t just something you talk about. It’s something you do. Faith is only activated when we act. We have faith in God when we do what he says. Proverbs 28:14 says, “Always obey the Lord and you will be happy. If you are stubborn, you will be ruined” (GNB). Obedience and stubbornness are two sides of the same coin.…

Who Is This?
And when Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up. “Who is this?” they asked. The crowds answered, “It’s the prophet Jesus from Nazareth in Galilee.” (Matthew 21:10-11, CEB) This Sunday is Palm Sunday, which also marks the beginning of Holy Week. As I reflect on this passage from Matthew which describes the triumphal entry, the phrase that jumps out to me is, “Who is this?” In so many ways this question captures the whole progression of the gospel…

Worship Anywhere
From an early age, I always looked forward to going to church because I loved to worship. Throughout my years growing up in the church I was in the choir, sang specials, and helped lead worship.

As I grew up I realized that worship wasn’t just raising my voice in…
