Four Reasons Fear Is a Fraud

Last updated on: August 29, 2019 at 4:45 pm   By Mark Driscoll

Matthew 6:25-27 – Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

How Can Someone Who Did Not Grow Up In a Christian Home Become a Godly Parent?

Last updated on: October 9, 2019 at 7:38 pm   By Mark Driscoll

Modeling a real faith for your kids is a tough job. You don’t want to wait for something to go wrong and then start telling your kids how much God loves them; it just won’t work. It’s better to make God the center of your home life and your everyday routine and a normal part of your family conversations. But that can be hard, too, especially if you didn’t grow up in a Christian home. Read more

Healing the Father Wound

Last updated on: August 29, 2019 at 4:43 pm   By Mark Driscoll
