“In all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). Faith is like a forward memory, allowing us to believe as if what is promised has already happened. One day we will see how Romans 8:28 was true all along.

This article from Taylor Combs, lead pastor of King’s Cross Church in Nashville, Tennessee, encourages us to process our thoughts in a healthy way that honors Jesus, rather than getting stuck in over-processing or rumination. There’s lot of wisdom here to consider.

Randy spoke to students at Sattler College in Boston. Drawing from Scripture, he paints a picture of the New Heavens and New Earth. Randy explains that the present Heaven is temporary, pointing to the ultimate reality of resurrected life on a renewed earth. He challenges common assumptions about Heaven and shows how the future Heaven is far more physical, joyful, and culture-rich than many believers imagine.

Last month I spoke on generosity, happiness, and Heaven at my home church, Good Shepherd Community Church. This is a message that’s close to my heart.

“Therefore [in light of our eventual resurrection], my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain” (1 Corinthians 15:58). How do we know that our labor in the Lord is not in vain? Because of our bodily resurrection.

A.W. Tozer is one of my favorite all-time authors. I hope you enjoy these Christmas related quotes from him.

The vast majority of fascinating scientific discoveries that will ever be made have not yet been made, and have hardly begun to be. And I believe a very large share of those discoveries will be centered in God’s animal kingdom. 

I love those quotes from John Piper’s The Dawning of Indestructible Joy: Daily Readings for Advent. As you read them, may your heart overflow with gratitude to Jesus for coming to earth as a child, so that we can be reconciled to God and enjoy life with Him forever on the New Earth!

We want to start by saying we are so sorry you have faced this great injustice that was perpetrated against you. Our hearts go out to you, and we pray that the Lord will comfort you and that you would experience His love and healing in your life.

Brett Harris is the co-founder and CEO of the Author Conservatory, a college alternative for writers. I watched a powerful message he gave to their 2025 graduating class. These nine minutes are well worth your time.

What awaits you in Heaven is a wonderful and amazing relationship and fellowship with Jesus, your Savior, and with all of God’s people. That will be your forever family in all the truest and best sense of the phrase.

In his conversation with Sean McDowell, Randy  shares about his booklet Grieving with Hope. They discuss how a belief in Heaven shapes grief. Randy gets personal as he shares what he has learned through the experience of losing his wife Nanci that can help Christians better grieve through loss, heartbreak, and pain.    

Heaven’s inhabitants ­don’t simply rejoice over nameless multitudes coming to God. They rejoice over each and every person (Luke 15:4-7, 10). That’s a powerful affirmation of Heaven’s view of each person as an individual, whose life is observed and cared for.

Perhaps this Christmas season is a difficult one for you. Maybe it reminds you of loved ones who are no longer part of your life, due to death or strained relationships. Life can be hard in very real ways. While our problems may be many and varied, there is one main solution: Jesus.
