We look at the Bible zoomed out. A bird’s eye view. We roll our eyes at the Israelites for being so stubborn, so forgetful, so unfaithful. We judge David for his adultery. We laugh at Peter’s blunt questions. We frown when all the disciples run away from Gethsemane. But what might happen if we plant ourselves right there, into those very moments ourselves? Right into the sandals of those people, in the instant those events are happening? What if we feel our own hearts pounding, our breaths catching, our minds racing? Could it be that our judgment falls away? Even better, might we ...

Biblical meditation is commanded in Scripture, but Bible memory is not. This is not a statement to discourage Bible memory, but rather it is meant to encourage Bible meditation. Biblical meditation is: "To dwell, ponder, muse, think upon or linger upon the truths given us in God's Word until our hearts are affected by them." You will find Biblical Meditation to be one of the most powerful and beneficial disciplines that you will ever learn. It changes the heart more effectively than anything else we do. The key word in the above definition is "until". This is more than a cursory glance at ...

Vivemos dias em que a fé cristã tem crescido e se espalhado grandemente. Mas temos que reconhecer que esse avanço tem acontecido a uma velocidade muito maior do que a capacidade de a Igreja amadurecer. Com isso, a maneira de Deus agir nem sempre corresponde às nossas expectativas. Mesmo imaturos, imaginamos que podemos entender a maneira como Deus determina sua vontade. Tentamos encontrar respostas para tudo, como se nosso raciocínio limitado pudesse esquadrinhar a mente do Senhor. Se algo acontece com alguém, sabemos o porquê; se deixa de acontecer, também temos a resposta.

Jesus simplifies our need down to one word: connection. If you feel like everything is spinning out of control amid the increasing disconnection and isolation of our daily lives, Jesus' words in John 15:5 on how to live will change your life. On the night before he was arrested, he told his...

While reading the autobiography of St. Therese, Fr. Caster had an "ah ha" moment that transformed his experience of Lent from one of narrow concern over what to give up to one of joyful freedom to enter into the sacrificial love of Jesus Christ. "What struck me," he says, "was her insistence on the way we do things for God and not the things we do for him. It wasn't about what I was offering; it was about why."

In The Mashiah, the author delves into the ancient prophecies of the Tanakh, seeking to understand exactly what the Biblical authors were predicting. Building upon a foundation of deep study and prayer, Mark Stouffer examines the Tanakh's messianic prophecies, contemplating whether or not they foretell the life and mission of Jesus. Please join him on this journey of discovery. Some of the questions we will consider in The Mashiah include: 1. Did the prophets give any indication that there would be two comings of the Messiah? 2. Why did Daniel predict that the Messiah would be killed?

God of the Old Testament Exposed, is highly engaging as it presents compelling arguments suggesting that the Bible was written by fallible humans with specific agendas. It draws parallels between the ancient peoples who became the Israelites and other groups in our modern world. These comparisons help illustrate how a warring people in Bible times might choose a fearsome god to represent them, despite also describing God as loving and compassionate.

I have always been fascinated by the life of the Apostle Paul. I admire his bold and outspoken approach, humility before God, deep love for people, and passionate goal of seeing the Kingdom of God expand worldwide. In this reflection, I want to share what I have observed about how Paul's life was shaped, his journey to becoming a church leader, and his role as a writer of much of the New Testament. I hope what motivated Paul in his love for God and his passion for his calling will inspire you to discover and fulfill your mission. This is not an exhaustive study or complete commentary. I ...

Thomas Watson (c. 1620-1686) was an English Puritan preacher and author who served as vicar of St. Stephen's Walbrook. In The Ten Commandments he discusses the rule of obedience as the moral law, summarised in the 10 commandments. The Godly Man's Picture portrays the Biblical characteristics of a godly man, referring to verses from the Psalms or Song of Songs. All Things For Good is a rigorous exposition of Romans 8:28.

In Egypt to Canaan, John Ritchie traces the epic journey of the Israelites from their redemption by blood all the way to the promised land. These incidents in Israel's history are illustrative pictures, or "types" (in the book of Hebrews they are called patterns, figures, and shadows), from which God will teach us important spiritual lessons if we are willing to learn them.

What is life to the full? Our souls long for a life that is full and flourishing, but so often it feels beyond our reach. Blinded by false rewards and temporary relief, we look to sources that promise happiness and wholeness. We attempt to fill our lives with more, increasing our pace and capacity, but accumulation doesn’t ever seem to satisfy. We see the circumstantial evidence that others might have found this sort of life, but we cannot seem to experience it for ourselves.
