Cling to the Truth of Your Heritage
Christians who follow God must intentionally teach the next generation about the true heritage of those who walked with God before them. When we know the stories of faithful believers in our great God, even with their faults, we can counterbalance our culture’s attempts to distort our view of ourselves as Christians by belittling our past.

God’s Steadfast Love Reboots and Renews Us
Do you have some stiff-necked people in your life? You and I might give up on them, but God does not. His steadfast love is still wooing those who need to know Him or need to know Him better. When we respond to His love, He renews our hearts and gives us the best He has planned for our future.

The Biblical Truth about Dreams
What do you do when you have a dream that you think God gave to you? How do you know if you should follow it or believe it to be from Him? Great questions. A friend of mine asked those of me recently. So I did some biblical research to determine how to answer her. What Dreams Are and Are Not Several years ago, I learned that the tendency to seek dream interpretation even among Christians is very popular today. A friend of mine shared with me her sister’s complete obsession with dreams, especially animals in dreams. So, I did some research on this topic. Dreams are little more than…

Why You Need the Strong Support of Friends
Whenever you have faced a challenge in life, has God surrounded you with loyal friends to help you get through it? Do you consider those friends to be God’s army sent to support you? We all need such an army at times. God does not intend that life should be lived alone. You and I need the strong support of friends to help us persevere through the difficulties of life. God Does Not Leave Us Alone Recently, two of my friends have experienced the sudden death of their husbands. Both of them are believers who are actively involved in their churches. Another friend is grieving over the sudden death of…

Fear of Consequences Can Motivate Obedience
How do you respond to a command for obedience? What motivates you to obey? Your gut reaction to the word “obedience” is reflected in your attitude toward authority and in the resulting behavior. And this inner reaction certainly affects your relationship with God. Do you trust Him enough to obey His commands, even those that make you personally uncomfortable? “Obedient trust”1 is a huge part of living out our lives as Christians in today’s world. Knowing that our God is completely trustworthy and realistically fearing the consequences of going against Him can motivate you to obedience. Or you can give lip service claiming you are a Christian and then choose…

Never Too Old to Have Impact for Christ
Throughout Scripture, the Lord used many older people as His instruments of grace. He even called Joshua “old, advanced in years” (Joshua 13:1) and still wanted him to keep serving because “there remains very much land yet to be possessed.” What God said about Joshua reminded me that you and I as believers never retire from our calling to witness and work in God’s Kingdom until He takes us home. Listen to this blog as a similar podcast, “Staying Faithful to God by Choice.” Anna, an Old Woman Who Impacted Others Who was Anna? Don’t forget Anna! As you recount the Christmas story and tell about the angels, shepherds,…

It Matters Who Your Mama Is
The Lord has allowed me to be a mother for almost 50 years. Knowing how so many struggle with infertility, I am truly grateful. And my heart’s desire from the first day was that I would be a godly mother, passing along a love for the Lord and His Word to my children. That would be my legacy that they would remember when I go to be with Jesus. I know from experience that it matters who your mama is. The Legacy of a Godly Mama My mama loved Jesus and His people. She jumped in to serve in her local church wherever she was needed — nursery coordinator, Sunday School director,…

Be a God-Dependent Woman
Do you fight any need to be dependent on someone? Does that attitude find its way into your relationship with God? God wants for us women to be God-dependent women—not “independent except for when we need Him.” That is very hard to accept in our culture that continually tells us to be self-sufficient. But the Bible teaches that we, as believers in Christ, should live our lives dependent on God all the time. We are to be God-dependent in our strengths when we are using our gifts and skills and opportunities well. We are to be God-dependent in our weaknesses that drive us to Him for help. And we are to…
