"The Normal Christian Life" - Mike Ashcraft | The Pace of Devotion, Part 5 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We don't drift into faithfulness by accident — we're formed by it, one small choice at a time. What catches our eye captures our heart; what captures our heart drives our body; and what drives our body shapes our whole experience of life. The goal was never to balance these pieces, but to let them become so woven together that this way of living simply feels normal. It starts with our default thoughts, which quietly set the patterns we'll follow. And obedience is the thread running through it al
“The Power of Your Presence” - Mike Ashcraft | The Pace of Devotion, Part 4 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Faith was never meant to live only in our heads — it's meant to move through our whole selves. How we show up matters, because our presence isn't neutral; we're always producing something, whether we're paying attention to it or not. Self-awareness is rare, but it's the doorway to living with intention instead of just going through the motions. And it starts with encounter: when we truly let God's love in, it changes what we're carrying — and what we carry is what we bring into every room we wal
"Formation of Desire" - Mike Ashcraft | The Pace of Devotion, Part 3 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every time we bump into life, it either shapes us or messes us up a little — which is why guarding our hearts was never about avoiding pain. It's about protecting the love of God that's already inside us, because that love is where our real life comes from. God's the one who made life, so he's the one who gets to say what it actually means. And when you trace any longing back far enough, it's really just a longing for him — because Christ is that life we're after. Our minds need to keep getting
"Paying the Price" - Mike Ashcraft | The Pace of Devotion, Part 2 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We live like our attention is something that just happens to us — hijacked by screens, algorithms, and whatever's loudest in the moment. But Scripture tells a different story: attention is a choice, and choice is the beginning of agency. What we set before our eyes shapes who we become. The path back isn't willpower or a life hack — it's wisdom, the slow, deliberate work of renewing our minds so our hearts can wake back up. Every day we're paying a price for what we give our attention to, whethe
"Determining Rhythms" - Mike Ashcraft | The Pace of Devotion, Part 1 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Devotion isn't a list of rules to follow or a pace we have to keep up with—it's a whole-life posture of bringing everything we are to God and to the people around us. That doesn't mean moving fast or getting everything balanced perfectly; it means finding a sustainable rhythm, centered on God, that can carry us through endurance and change over time. When life gets disordered, we default to anger and comparison because those are easy to reach for. But repentance offers us something better: a reo
