The Light Shines in the Darkness
December 4, 2022
John tells us that the setting of the Christmas story is the world. And he wants us to see something very particular about the world: its darkness. When we think about Christmas, we like to think of brightness and light. But the story loses its meaning if we don’t consider the darkness.

Knowledge Puffs Up, Love Builds Up
November 13, 2022

Remain as You Are
November 6, 2022
Sometimes the way we talk about singleness frames marriage as the aim of life. For Paul, our aim in life is to be fully devoted to God, and he thinks singles have an advantage on that front. He wants us to rethink our view of marriage and singleness in light of the gospel and the kingdom work at hand.

When Life Catches up to You
October 30, 2022
We can all probably remember a time when we felt a sense of newness and excitement in our faith. But inevitably, life has a way of catching up with us. And when it does, we can lose our sense of joy and commitment in our walk with God. What do we do when life catches up to us?

Instruction for Sex and Marriage
October 23, 2022
In the first part of chapter 7, Paul gives practical instruction related to sex, marriage, and divorce. As we approach this chapter, we are not looking for quick answers or rules. We are looking for how these instructions reflect the beauty and wisdom of God and lead us to deeper faith in Jesus.

Glorify God in Your Body
October 16, 2022

A Divine Encounter

In this beautiful story, God arranges a divine encounter to take the gospel to just one man. And he does it through another man.

Why Doesn’t God Protect His People?

The Coming of the Spirit
April 26, 2026
Acts 2:1-13 is the fulfillment of Jesus’ promise to send the Holy Spirit to his disciples. On the one hand, what happens in this account is unique, because the Holy Spirit only comes one time in this particular way.
