• What Does the Bible Say about Who I Am in Christ? I hear this quite a bit from Christians, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” This is a popular Scripture taken from Philippians 4:13. I would argue that this verse is only powerful in our life if we have a decent understanding of who we are in Christ. It’s in having a clear identity in Christ that gives us strength to overcome the hard things in life. Lisa Brown May 21, 2019 comments
• 3 Ways Hebrews 10 Calls Us to Respond to Jesus Christ’s work not only prompts a response, it demands one. But how? Do I work to earn his favor? Do I seek to prove that I’m worth the sacrifice? No, scripture isn't seeking legalism or self-righteousness. It encourages a response marked by fellowship, confidence, and community. And there’s no better place to read about it than Hebrews 10.

• What Is the Apocalypse? 10 Things Christians Should Know The Apocalypse? What does that word mean? According to Dictionary.com, it means “revelation, disclosure, uncover, reveal.” I found the title page to my mother’s 1982, Holman Bible Publishers, King James Version, it reads: “THE REVELATION TO JOHN (The Apocalypse)." Or in today’s vernacular, an account the Lord Jesus Christ gave of Himself to the Church and events that will occur at the end of this age. DiAne Gates May 17, 2019 comments
• 10 Important Things the Bible Says about Death Death. The very word can trigger images of darkness, men and women in black, of grief, and for some, fear. But God doesn’t want us to live in fear nor defeat. He wants us to live, and die, with confidence. Jennifer Slattery May 12, 2019 comments
• What Is a Concubine? Why Did God Allow Men to Take Concubines in the Bible? In the Bible, a concubine was a woman acquired by a man as a secondary wife. Her purpose was to provide a male heir in the case of a barren wife, to provide more children in general to enhance the family’s workforce and wealth, and to satisfy the man’s sexual desires. A concubine was endowed with rights and protections by Hebrew law but was not equal in status to a wife. Emily Hall May 09, 2019 comments
• 3 Lies Christians Believe about the Ten Commandments

  It’s relatively easy to accept that rules about pork and shellfish and ceremonial washings don’t apply to us Christians today. But it’s a lot harder to let go of the Ten Commandments as our “source” or “guide” for daily living.

• What Is Wisdom? (and How to Get It) The answer to the question, “what is wisdom” seems, at first hearing, to demand a rather simple answer. One could say, “Wisdom is the appropriate application of knowledge,” and that is so. But upon reviewing wisdom in the Bible, this invaluable virtue is deep, immeasurable, priceless, and rare. It is like saying, “Jesus is the Redeemer.” That is true, yet our Redeemer is infinitely more. Dr. Michael A. Milton May 02, 2019 comments
