It's All About People!

Phillip Morrison reminds us in the shadow of Independence Day about the many inconsistencies when principles are first applied, yet he also urges us to be patient and gracious and open to the needs of all people.

A Brand New Idea: You!

Max Lucado wants us to know there is only one of each of us and each of us needs to be who we are to honor God, bless others, and bless ourselves.

And if you aren't you, we won't ever get you. The world misses out. You offer a gift to society that no one else brings.

Made for This!

Melissa Troyer writes about the challenging realities of the roles we have to play and have to fill and then wonders, and embraces, that maybe these are exactly the roles God has made to embrace and fill.

All too often we cringe at the role we find ourselves filling, and filling beautifully, when in fact this is the role God made us to fill!

Teach Us to Pray 10: Needing Grace

Phil Ware, with Chad Higgins, reminds us of the power of the simple words 'Forgive us our debts' and give us a daily practice to emphasize the power of these words.

Jesus provided us the few simple words we need to return us to that place of righteousness in the eyes of our Father: “Forgive us our debts.”

Made to Be Complements

Phil Ware continues his series on how God values women as seen in Scripture, this is part 2.

In the Lord, we are called to complement, complete, and bless each other so that each can be what she or he is created by God and re-created in Jesus to become!

Phil Ware tells us a simple story of a mother's love to remind how our Father sees us as his treasure.

How can such a discovery, no matter how badly dirt-encrusted and stained, not be seen as a genuine treasure?

Hope beyond our world's brokenness!

Very Good!

Patrick D. Odum uses the Vatican's ruling on UFOs as a chance to remind us that we are made in God's image, and are very good.

Can't God do any better work than human beings?
