These powerful words from Romans 6:14 form the foundation of today's compelling exploration of obedience under the new covenant.

Many believers struggle with this question, focusing on the ritual's words or methods while missing Christ's complete command: "teaching them to observe all things which I have commanded you."

Send us a text The spiritual life often feels like an endless struggle of trying to please God through our own efforts, only to fall short repeatedly. But what if we've misunderstood the entire foundation of obedience? This profound meditation on Hebrews 13:20-21 unveils a revolutionary truth: authentic obedience flows not from our striving but from God's empowering presence within us.

Send us a text What happens when we strip away centuries of human opinion on marriage and return to Jesus' own words? The answer transforms how we understand one of life's most sacred relationships. In this profound exploration of Matthew 19, we journey back to a moment when religious leaders attempted to trap Jesus with a controversial question about divorce "for any reason at all." Rather than engaging in legal technicalities, Jesus redirected everyone's attention to God's original design ...

This piercing question from Jesus in Luke's Gospel forms the foundation of a powerful examination of what it truly means to acknowledge Christ's Lordship. Far beyond mere verbal acknowledgment, authentic recognition of Jesus as Lord demands alignment between our professions and our actions.

The Christian Family

Welcome to the 411 ·

2025/06/03

Send us a text What's the secret to 66 years of marriage? When people ask me that question, my answer surprises them: "I didn't do it. God helped me." Drawing from decades of marriage and ministry, I share biblical wisdom for building marriages that last in a world where relationships often fracture. The Christian family stands upon the revolutionary concept found in Ephesians 5:21: "Submitting yourselves one to another in the reverence of Christ." This mutual submission transforms how husba...

2025/05/25

Send us a text What makes the difference between Christians who struggle in their own strength and those who experience the transformative power of God's grace? The answer lies in a profound biblical principle: "The just shall live by faith." Drawing from Habakkuk 2:4 and Romans 1:16-17, this meditation explores how genuine spiritual growth happens when we move beyond self-reliance and embrace faith-dependent living.

Send us a text Freedom lies at the heart of the Christian message, yet its true meaning often gets lost in religious rhetoric. What does genuine spiritual liberty look like? It's far more revolutionary than simply being allowed to do whatever we want. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3:17, we explore how "where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." This liberty stands in stark contrast to the spiritual bondage produced by living under the old covenant of law. While the Pharisees bound "hea...

Mary wasn't a princess from a palace or a woman of influence - she was a 12-year-old virgin from Nazareth, a small village with a terrible reputation.

While Christians often debate which spiritual gift carries the greatest value—whether tongues, prophecy, wisdom, or miraculous powers—the apostle Paul settles this age-old question with stunning clarity in 1 Corinthians 13. Examining this profound chapter reveals three essential qualities that establish love's supremacy. First, love is preeminent. Without it, speaking in the languages of me...
