True and Good News — Ephesians 6:1-9 | Zach Conway (opens the original)
Read excerpt
God’s word is true—but do we delight in its goodness? In Ephesians 6:1–9, we see how knowing Christ transforms our families and working lives. Children honour their parents, parents nurture their children, and workers and bosses serve with sincerity and care. These instructions flow from the good news that Jesus has redeemed us and our identity is secure in him. His grace shapes how we love, lead and serve, even when no one is watching. Hold firmly to God’s truth. Delight in his goodness. Let kn
God's Promise Remains — Genesis 23-25 | Dave Miers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What will happen when we’re no longer here? Genesis 23–25 brings Abraham’s story to a close: Sarah and Abraham die, Isaac and Rebekah begin life together, and God’s promise remains. As we conclude our Count the Stars series, we see God’s faithfulness through grief, change and a future we cannot control. Jesus weeps with those who mourn and, through his death and resurrection, secures lasting hope for all who trust in him. With our eyes fixed on Jesus, we can take faithful steps today without kno
The LORD Will Provide — Genesis 22 | Dave Miers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Can we trust God when we don’t understand what he’s doing? Genesis 22 brings Abraham’s faith under extraordinary pressure as God asks him to offer his beloved son, Isaac. Abraham trusts God’s promise, and the Lord provides a ram in Isaac’s place. The story points us to Jesus—the beloved Son whom God gave for us, the Lamb of God who takes away our sin. James 2 brings the challenge home: genuine faith takes shape in costly obedience, in everyday life and in hard times. We are saved by what Jesus h
Transforming Grace — Genesis 21 | Dave Miers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What difference does grace make? Genesis 21 reveals amazing grace as God keeps his promise and Sarah’s laughter becomes joyful celebration. We see common grace as God establishes Isaac as the promised heir while hearing and caring for Ishmael in the wilderness. And we glimpse transforming grace as Abraham deals peacefully with Abimelech, showing kindness in response to kindness received. Titus 2:11–14 brings us to Jesus, who gave himself to redeem us and make us a people eager to do good. The gr
Afraid But Not Abandoned — Genesis 19:30-20:18 | Dave Miers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Genesis 19:30–20:18 shows that even rescued and experienced believers remain vulnerable to compromise and fear. Lot’s family carries the ways of Sodom with them, while Abraham returns to an old strategy of deception. Yet God remains faithful: he protects Sarah, preserves his promise and continues working through his failing servant. In Gethsemane, Jesus entrusts himself to the Father and gives himself for fearful sinners like us. When we’re afraid, can we really trust God to be for us? Romans 8
