"He must increase, but I must decrease." (John 3:30). This is the essence of Biblical fasting; decrease and increase. Saying "no" (decrease) to something good to say "yes" (increase) to something, or Someone, better. As we deny ourselves, it is important to keep our focus on the One we are pursuing.

In His most familiar prayer, Jesus uttered a four-word "dangerous prayer:" "Your will be done" (Matthew 6:10). It takes trust in God's goodness and faithfulness to pray for His will in our lives. I want to invite you to have the same heart and desire as Jesus and to follow His lead in these four words: "Your will be done."

God alone is our refuge. When the foundations around us are shaken, He is the shelter we run to. God alone can bring peace in the chaos, joy in the sorrow, and hope in the darkness. All we need to do is be still and know.

The Bible says, “What we see now is like a dim image in a mirror; then we shall see face-to-face” (1 Corinthians 13:12). In this series, Pastor Rick explains eternal realities and the choices you must make to determine your eternal destiny and how you should live on this side of eternity.

Jesus said that the pathway to being happy and free is found at the end of me. It’s one of those upside-down teachings that is completely opposite of how we think success and happiness work. So, if you want more than a few fleeting moments of happiness, this reading plan is especially for you.

This devotion will take you through the entire book of James.

For James, Christians (that is, followers of his half-brother) should reflect the character of their God. And what we find in this letter is not works and more works as sometimes thought to be. On the contrary it is a letter infused by God’s character, with the intention of making God-shaped people living in the world.

Have you ever wondered if God really loves you and uses your life? Advent is the perfect time to see how God wants to capture our hearts by His love. Explore the season through the eyes of someone on a journey to find meaning beyond the traditional Christmas story we all know. This devotional brings a unique approach to December as we consider 25 ways God “wows” us with Jesus.

In this 4-week Love God Greatly study, take a deeper look into God’s wisdom when it comes to suffering, the power of prayer, the importance of controlling the tongue, and the danger of wealth. James challenges us to not only talk the talk, but walk the walk; to live out our faith in a bold pursuit of holiness. But because not one of us is perfect, the proper way to read James is through the lens of the gospel.

While others may make promises and break them, God never does, because He is the Ultimate Promisekeeper. What He promises, He fulfills. In this 27-day study on the promises of God, we will look at how God promises to be with, guide, help, and sustain you. Because God is holy, it is not hard for Him to keep His promises which are unfailing, unchanging, and true.

Whatever December looks like for you, wherever you are, whoever you are with or not with, our hope is that you will set aside time every day over the next four weeks to open God’s Word. We will have short devotionals each day to help you reflect on the day’s reading. We pray that you will see Jesus in a new light this Christmas.

Christmas is a time when we as believers celebrate God’s heart to write himself into our story. Prior to Jesus, we had no real picture of God’s love. All we had to know him by was through stories of old and commandments written into law. But only in Jesus was a pathway created whereby we could walk in intimacy with the Father again. Only in Jesus was the veil torn, allowing God’s manifest presence into the earth. We owe all that we have to Jesus. We owe all that we have to Christmas.
