All Resources

Randy writes, “Even under the Curse, we’ve been able to explore the moon, and we have the technology to land on Mars. What will we be able to accomplish for God’s glory when we have resurrected minds, unlimited resources, complete scientific cooperation, and no more death?”

God's Word is the source of correction, training, eternal perspective, and joyful rest from weariness and sorrow. Here are ten verses that have especially shaped my life and ministry.

If we understand what “a new heaven and a new earth” means, we’ll look forward to it. (And if we’re not looking forward to it, we must not yet understand it.) Anticipating our homecoming will motivate us to live spotless lives here and now.

To understand the message of Matthew 7:21-23, again it’s critical to look at the whole passage and consider who Jesus is talking to and about.

Would you like to rethink your approach to money? Six powerful principles can shift your focus from the temporal to the eternal. On this episode of Faith and Finance Live, Randy Alcorn speaks with host Rob West about the Treasure Principle.

Dr. Douglas Groothuis writes, “Don’t ask physicists about theology. Don't ask psychologists about history. Don't ask (at least one) New Testament scholars about abortion; that is, don’t ask N. T. Wright, who is dead wrong on the ethics of abortion as his recent podcast revealed.”

Treatment for a miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy is NOT an abortion. It is very important that we use precise language when are talking about these subjects.

As God demonstrated in giving Paul his thorn in the flesh, He sometimes has better things in mind than our health.

What follows is an edited version of an email I sent to a friend who faced a heartbreaking situation involving a family member. I’m sharing it because it can apply to any faithful, godly person dealing with tragic events caused by a child’s, spouse’s, or parent’s bad choices.

Jairus’s daughter appeared to be dead because she was dead. Yet Jesus—fully God—sees beyond this finite moment in time in which we are sequestered. He alone is capable of “waking” her, as He did Lazarus and others.

Though all of us, if asked, might say that we don’t have any more right to a perfect and pain-free life than the next person, in our own hearts and minds, we tend to believe that we do. So, when forced to suffer, even mature believers can feel driven to question God’s motives.

Grief is always difficult, but it sounds like in this particular case, grief is also tricky because it’s a relationship that our society doesn’t have a clear label on for grieving. But God knows and see what’s hard—so give yourself permission to grieve this loss, bring that sadness to Jesus, and let Him speak His truth and love into it.

We must become connected to the One who alone gives not only deliverance from sin, but meaning and purpose and personal relationship. This is what the Bible calls reconciliation.

As we befriend and spend time with unbelievers, we must carefully evaluate and ask ourselves: am I influencing them, or being influenced myself? Scripture tells us, “Live wisely among those who are not believers, and make the most of every opportunity” (Colossians 4:5, NLT).
