As we consider the life of Christ and read passages like Mark 5:20-6:13 we cannot but be impacted by the difference Jesus made in those individual’s lives He encountered. But what about our lives today? Is Jesus making a difference to you today?
Do you have what it takes? When we consider Hebrews 11:1-27 and how these that have gone before us chose to live by faith, it can be overwhelming. Yet it comes from small steps of obedience, as we submit to our Savior, and chose to live by faith!
Have you considered what you’re called to be as a follower of Jesus Christ? 1 Peter 2:1-10 reminds us that we are a peculiar people, a people that have been purchased by our Savior. Are we therefore to sit idly by or are we not called to serve Him?
The world says not to judge, to have no discernment, to trust their way without questioning it. Yet as we study the Bible, we see that’s not what God has for us. In John 7:24 we note that while we aren’t to judge things by their appearance, we must apply the Word of God to…

The Bible is full of warnings to nations who’s god is not God. Isaiah 5:7-23 reminds us of what happens as we depart from the ways of God. Will we stand firm in the teachings of God or go the way of the world?
