Do the Will of God You Know; Discern the Will You Don’t

article June 7, 2023

This is a great article from Scott Hubbard, editor for Desiring God. As he points out, God wants us to know His will. Because He loves us, He gives us His Word, the Road Map, so we don’t have to grope in darkness. The Bible is the revealed will of God. If we want to live in His will, then we should “Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly” (Colossians 3:16).

True, Lasting Happiness Is Found in Jesus, Not Sex or Sexual Identity

article June 5, 2023

Sex as God intended—in marriage, between a man and a woman—is a pleasure to be celebrated (see Proverbs 5:15-19). Sex outside of marriage brings serious negative consequences—emotional, physical, and spiritual. Promising long-term pleasure it can’t deliver, addiction to sex and pornography enslave and degrade everyone involved.

Our Longing to Go Home Will Be Ultimately Fulfilled on the New Earth

article June 2, 2023

Before she died, weary of the struggle, Nanci squeezed my hand and said, “Randy, please take me Home.” I said, “If I could, I would take you Home right now. And I would never come back to this world the way it is.” God promises we will in fact come back to this world, but NOT to the way it is now. He will bring us down to a New Earth, a resurrected planet with no more sin, no more death, no more suffering, no more weeping.

The Heavens Can Never Stop Declaring God’s Glory

article May 31, 2023

Decades ago, I connected with Kevin Hartnett, who worked at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center for 40 years, retiring as a Science Operations Manager for the Hubble Space Telescope. Kevin is not only an accomplished scientist, but an amateur astronomer and astro-photographer. I hope you enjoy this great article.

107-Year-Old Generous Giver Stanley Tam Goes to Be with Jesus

article May 29, 2023

I found out recently that Stanley Tam went home to be with Jesus on Sunday, April 16. At age 107! I will never forget talking with him at length on the phone when he was a mere 102.

What Does It Mean to Be Filled to Overflowing with the Holy Spirit?

article May 26, 2023

Scripture tells us it is God’s will that we be filled with and controlled by His Holy Spirit (Ephesians 5:17-18). What does that mean? My friend Kurt Nelson explains more in this excerpt from his book.
