  • Let your yes be yes and your no be no

    Let your yes be yes and your no be no
    Jul 10 2025
    In yesterday’s devotional we talked about the importance of being honest with your words. Makes sense, right? After all, God is a God of truth. Jesus comes to us “full of grace and truth” (John 1:14). God’s “word is truth” (John 17:17). If we want to be his disciples, reflecting his truth needs to be a … Continue reading Let your yes be yes and your no be no

    Jul 9 2025
    Honesty is important. But when push comes to shove it’s easy to let a lie slip when it will make things easier for us or when it covers up a mistake we’ve made.It was Mark Twain who said: “A lie can get halfway around the world before the truth can even get its boots on.” … Continue reading Standing up for the truth of God

  • What if we stopped chasing?

    What if we stopped chasing?
    Jul 7 2025
    Gregory was a church father from the sixth century. He said: “You can tell how much you love something by the degree of sorrow you experience when you lose it.”*I think that’s a helpful piece of perspective. If I buy a new expensive watch, and if I am so utterly devastated when I lose it … Continue reading What if we stopped chasing?

    A servant people
    Jul 4 2025
    I remember reading a book which provided a summary of the biblical descriptions of the church. It was (and is) the body of Christ, the bride of Christ, the people of the Spirit, the household of God, a community of disciples, etc.Another one was “a servant people.” Jesus’ people are a people who serve. This … Continue reading A servant people

  • The Truly Happy Person

    The Truly Happy Person
    Jul 1 2025
    Roy Oswald says: “The truly happy person is the one who wants, more than anything else, what he already has.”His statement is meant to bring attention to the idea that accumulating more stuff or experiences doesn’t necessarily make a person happier. True happiness, he argues, is about wanting what you already have.It’s a surprising statement, … Continue reading The Truly Happy Person
