Unexpected Truths - I Am My Brother's Keeper - September 6, 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ezekiel 33:7-11“Am I my brother’s keeper?” Cain meant the question as an excuse: My brother isn’t my problem. But Scripture gives an unexpected answer: Yes, I am my brother’s keeper. In Ezekiel 33:7–11, God appoints Ezekiel as a watchman and holds him accountable for warning people in spiritual danger because God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked. He wants sinners to turn and live, and that saving heart led him to give his own Son for us.We are not called to Ezekiel’s prophetic office
Unexpected Truths - The Son of Man Is the Son of God - August 23, 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Matthew 16:13-20 Some truths are so familiar that we can forget how astonishing they really are. When Jesus asks his disciples, “Who do you say I am?” Peter gives the answer at the heart of the Christian faith: “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” That familiar confession is still an unexpected and life-changing truth. Jesus is not merely a wise teacher, a moral example, or even a great prophet. The Son of Man is the Son of God—true man who stands in our place and true God whose lif
Unexpected Truths - There Are No Outsiders in the Church - August 16, 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ephesians 2:13-22 We’re good at deciding who belongs and who doesn’t—even in church. But Paul reveals an unexpected truth: every Christian began as an outsider. Sin separated all of us from God, but Jesus brought us near through his blood. In Christ, strangers become family, outsiders become citizens, and sinners become part of God’s dwelling place. And if Jesus has torn down the walls, we have no business building them back up.
What Makes Christians Different? - Christians Answer Doubt with Faith - August 9, 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Romans 8:28-39 What makes Christians different when life hurts and we can’t understand why? Romans 8:28–31 gives us something far better than “everything happens for a reason” or the hope that karma will somehow balance the scales. Christians don’t need to decipher God’s hidden plan: we know what he has promised. The God who called us, justified us through Christ, and is conforming us to the image of his Son is for us—and nothing can separate us from his love.
What Makes Christians Different? Christians Seek Spiritual Wealth - July 26, 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
1 Kings 3:5-12 What would you ask for if God promised to give you anything you wanted? More money? More time? Relief from the problem weighing on you? When Solomon received that offer, he asked for something surprisingly modest: a heart that listens. His request reveals the difference between a heart that approaches God with all the answers and one that trusts God enough to listen. But Solomon’s story is about more than imitating a wise king. It begins with God’s grace, points beyond Solomon to
