But you try and work as hard as possible to make the best of every moment. So, you swing your legs to the side of the bed, grab your water from the bedside, and drink quickly. Rubbing your eyes, you walk wearily to the... Read more

How Faith Guides Loving Thy Neighbor: A Biblical Perspective

Last updated on: September 29, 2024 at 11:13 pm   By Heather Bixler

As Christians, it is more challenging to justify condemning someone with scripture than it is to justify love, mercy, and grace to those around us. The Bible contains many scriptures and examples from Jesus, who shows and teaches us to love our neighbor. Jesus called us to share the gospel and to be salt and light in this dark world.  For God didn’t send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved... Read more

I recently started college to earn my Master’s degree. I am always amazed at the new stuff I learn while in school. Not that I feel like I know everything there is to know, but I am mainly surprised to learn there is SO much I don’t know. The writing “fountain of knowledge” seems never-ending at this point. As much as I don’t know about my profession and what I am learning in school, there is so much more I... Read more

There is a verse in Matthew that always sticks out to me. I am often reminded of when I feel the personal nudge to judge or try to change someone else. The verse is Matthew 7:3-5 (WEB):  Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but don’t consider the beam that is in your own eye? Or how will you tell your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye,’ and behold, the beam is... Read more

Biblical Harvest: 3 Key Concepts Every Christian Should Know

I was running errands today when I noticed so many leaves on the ground. My youngest daughter is ready to decorate for fall, and it seems like the trees are ready, too. This summer has been quite long, with a lot of changes, some difficult moments to overcome, and memories I will cherish forever. Every time the fall season approaches, I think about what harvest means in the Bible. Harvest is such a powerful word, and I think the lessons... Read more

Before I gave my life to Christ, I was living a life where I was always trying to get the answers I needed. I wanted more for my life, but I had no idea how to get what I wanted. Back then, I just wanted to know how to make my life better and how to find healing for my mind, body, and spirit.  During that time, I had enough belief to pray to God every day to ask for... Read more
