Even when hope feels lost, God is working behind the scenes. This is the story of the cross.

Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice so we could receive the ultimate gift.

Just hours before going to the cross, Jesus gave us a new command: Love one another.

In His final week on earth, Jesus reminded us of the most important commands: Love God and love people.

Jesus said the greatest commandment is to love God with all your heart, soul, and mind. As we look to Easter, let's spend some time with God and express our love and thankfulness to Him.

At some point in our lives, we all have to answer this question: "Who is Jesus?"

Hosanna! This is what the people shouted at Jesus on Palm Sunday. But what does it actually mean? And why did the people turn on Jesus in just 5 short days?

Our bodies are a gift from God! How well are you taking care of yours?

The Bible is a miracle, being breathed by God yet written by ordinary people.

The best way to get the most out of life is to simply follow Jesus.

You may feel overwhelmed and like you're being attacked on every side. What would God say to you? "Be still. I am bigger. I will be exalted because of what I will do in your life." Psalm 46:10

"God takes full responsibility for the life wholly devoted to Him." -Charles Stanley

If you want to find true Life, you have to give yours away for Jesus.

The message of Love of Jesus is like a fire we cannot control. For anyone that is serious about following Jesus, His message will pour out of us.

Before you were born, God knew you and had a plan for your life. You are not a mistake or an accident. You were always a part of God's plan.

When we feel lost, God sees a clear path. Have you ever been lost, really lost? Maybe you were driving in a new city or hiking in the woods. Either way, you didn't know where to go next. You had lost the path. Has this ever happened in life? Have you ever said, "Why God?" Whenever we are lost driving or lost in life, one thing is true. If we could only get high enough, we could see the whole picture. We wouldn't be confused and we would see exactly where we needed to go. Our One Verse today teaches us that God's ways are higher than our ways. As high as the heavens are from the Earth, God sees the whole picture. Trust in Him to guide you down the right path.

I am praying for you today. Like Paul to the Colossians, I pray that you will discover your purpose through your deepening relationship with God.

God has had a plan of redemption for you since the beginning of time. God's grace is at work in your life.

Take responsibility for your own spiritual life.

When the storm come and life is a wilderness, we can trust in the Lord. God is our refuge and safety.

Today's One Verse gives us some simple, yet critical wisdom when it comes to tempation in our lives.

God has invited you to "participate in the divine nature." He has given you a purpose to live and a role to play in His ultimate story. 2 Peter 1:3 told us that we have everything we need, our gifts, talents, skills, and personality. Peter then let's us in on the secret: God is asking you to join Him on His mission of redemption.

You have already been given the gifts, skills, personality, and passion to live out God's purpose for your life.

Our limited problems are no match for God's unlimited power!

Spend some time in prayer today! Prayer is powerful. It is how we communicate with God. Let's take time to pray today-- For friends, for family, for our leaders, and for the troubles and injustices in our world. But don't stop there. Let's also give thanks to God for all that He is doing and will do in our lives!

Love puts on its boots, and it goes to work.

Today's One Verse gives us a simple strategy on how we can teach our children about God.

We can place our future hope in God because He has always been faithful in the past.

"Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me." Well, that's a lie! Let's be honest... Our words matter.

Because Jesus paid for our lives with His Love, now we all owe a debt of love to each other.

A simple command: Carry each other's burdens. This is how the Church is supposed to live.

When you can choose anything... Choose to love.

You can be confident in this: God is not finished with you!

"Every genuine expression of love grows out of a consistent and total surrender to God." -Martin Luther King, Jr. (Christmas sermon | Montgomery, Alabama, 1957)

Known as the "Man after God's own heart", David also made a lot of mistakes. Yet, in Psalm 26, he says that he has lived a blameless life. How? Because David understood the power of God's Grace. And this grace is available to us.

If you want to find life, prosperity, and honor, pursue these two things...

Your phrase for today: New birth into Living Hope

God wants to make a home with you...

The more we understand that we are children of God, the more it means for our lives.

When we allow the Light of Jesus to shine through us, something amazing happens...

When we walk in the Light and become more like Jesus, two amazing things begin to happen...

Today's One Verse is a beautiful psalm that we can adopt as a prayer for our lives.

Advice and discipline. Two words that can bring you wisdom in 2021.

Will you give this year to God?

Will you trust God in 2021?

Today's One Verse teaches us the quickest and easiest way to ruin 2021. If you want to have a great year, don't chase after this...

The Bible tells us exactly how we can live a productive life in 2021...
