“Even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will.” (Ephesians 1:4-5) What is the doctrine of adoption? The truth that not […]

BASIC INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE LEAVING EARTH by Adam Miller
Read: Matthew 28:16-20 The Great Commission contains the words of Jesus that every seasoned Christian is familiar with. It is our mission statement, our marching orders, and our battle cry. But as with anything else that becomes a little too familiar, it loses its significance when we hear it over and over without putting it […]
10 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE CHURCH AFTER COVID-19 BY MEGAN HILL
CORONAVIRUS HASN’T CHANGED ANYTHING IMPORTANT ABOUT THE CHURCH Last Sunday, our church regathered for the first time in months. In some ways, church felt very different, but, in all the important ways, nothing changed. We are still the people of God, gathered in the presence of God, to bring glory to God. We still affirm […]
The Keys That Advance the Kingdom by Adam Miller
A scan of the world today does not present a positive outlook for the Church. How can the kingdom of God be advancing when there are so many strongholds of evil?

Jesus said that He would […]
How Lament Is A Path To Praise by Mark Vroegop
“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances….” (I Thessalonians 5:16-18). It’s clear that Christians should not allow the pains of life to steal our joy in God. We should embrace the brokenness in the world with hopeful confidence. That’s true and biblical, but do we know how to “get there?” I find […]
Let ’em Have It: The Value Of The Imprecatory Psalms For Today By Adam Miller
Read: Psalm 58 In a world of constant outrage, we need the imprecatory Psalms, but not for the reason that you might think. We don’t need them to fan the flame of our hate or justify our prejudices. We need them to see the dark underbelly of sin and understand the magnitude of God’s wrath. […]
