Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a…

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger. - Luke 2:11-12This Christmas, we pray that you embrace the full scope of God’s love: that He sent His only son to earth, closing the gap sin created between God and His people once and for all. Jesus - God incarnate - became human flesh and walked among us. He lived a sinless life…

After the hurt. Before the healing. After the heartbreak. Before the mending. After the brokenness. Before the wholeness. There lies the In Between. Where things don’t make sense, but you’re hoping, praying, pleading that God is going to turn it for His good. Where you’re so aware of the broken places in your life, but you still feel so far from restoration. Know that God isn’t waiting for you at the end of the trial. He’s not waiting for you…

The term “intimacy with God” has become one of those phrases that Christians often toss about in conversation. But how many of us know what it means? I certainly did not, as my story confirms. I was one of the many who confused knowing the Lord with knowing about Him. I knew a lot about God, being an academic and studier of things. But what I found is there is such a huge difference in knowing about, versus knowing intimately. Consider this, American Christians…

So, we bit the fruit . . . then what? We were thrust into a world at war. Paradise was lost. But not forever. Genesis 3: 21-24 describes it in this way: “And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them. 22 Then the Lord God said, ‘Behold, the man has become like one of us in knowing good and evil.
