It’s hard to see what racial unity can look like when we’re surrounded by division. But God has this big plan for the church—that every nation, tribe, people, and language would one day gather together. We haven’t always done a great job of this, but could we take another step forward today?

You scroll past an opposing view on Facebook and some feelings bubble up. Do you keep scrolling past or stop and fire back? It’s easy to love the people we agree with—but how do we live in unity when we’re on opposite sides of an issue?

If your screen time report included time spent with God—what would it tell you? One thing’s for sure, the more time you spend with Him, the lighter and freer you (and your future self) will feel.

You want to be generous. You pay it forward in the drive-thru and even throw some bills in the red bucket every holiday season. And it feels great! But what if you took spur-of-the-moment generosity and turned it into a planned way of life?

You’ve got moments of weakness. It’s what leads you to God, trusted friends, and can also tempt you to take shortcuts—trading long-term reward for immediate satisfaction.

We have lots of names for close friendships—thick as thieves, BFFs, two peas in a pod. The people we give these titles to matter. Especially when we consider another saying—you become the company you keep.

Sometimes our bad habits don’t really seem that bad. And good habits sound like a good idea, but they’re so hard to get going. So why go through the effort of trading sleeping in for working out? Or scrolling our phone for spending time with God?

Another reason we know Jesus is he who he claimed to be? Every life that's been completely transformed by encountering Him.

When we dig into history, we see a common thread—people uncovering a need, showing up, and becoming messengers of hope + healing. And so often, where this happens, followers of Jesus are the ones leading the way. What does this say about who Jesus is?

Some descriptions of heaven sound a little—boring. Angels playing harps while sitting on clouds? The Bible tells a much more exciting and hope-filled story. What will heaven actually be like?

Unknowns can be scary. Which is why most people don’t like to think about what’ll happen after they die. Maybe we just cease to exist or maybe there really is a heaven and hell. If there is, what difference does it make?

We all want to be a decent human being, and it’s easy to believe that’ll get us in with God. But is our good, good enough?

“I’ll never be enough”—it’s a hard feeling to shake. But what if God is inviting us to a life where our worth isn’t measured by our skillset?

The harder we try, the further we’ll go. But when all we do is hustle—do we lose out on a strength that only comes from God?

Sometimes we can’t help being a little—well, judgy. We judge people on everything from social media pics to political views. Some judgment can be really harmful and drive a wedge between us. But is all judgment bad?

There’s no magic wand to wave our suffering away when we choose to follow Jesus. But why does a good God allow us to go through painful experiences?

We’ve heard it so often it almost feels true—you can be anything you want to be. But sometimes believing that means you’re missing out on your true design.

Waste our lives or use them well? It’s up to us. Pursue our purpose or let it slip away? That’s up to us, too.

You have everything you need to live a wealthy life. And it doesn’t have anything to do with the number in your bank account.

If a package contains toxic chemicals, we stick a warning label on it. Toxic people can be harder to detect and avoid. How do we deal with relationships that suck the life out of us?

Have you ever competed in a race? We bet the training was hard work, but it was the only way to get the result you wanted. This is true in our spiritual lives too…and lucky for all of us, spiritual training camp starts now.

Line leader—the most coveted role in an elementary classroom. Some kids clamor to the front and others hide in the back. Truth is, we’re all leaders—from leading ourselves to our family to the people around us.

We've all messed up. But, God still values you above anything else he’s ever created.

It’s easy to get stuck in a cycle of anxious, fearful, or critical thoughts. But God created us for so much more. When we take His truths and apply them to our thoughts, we can win the daily battle in our mind.

What’s true for pizzas is also true for families—the ingredients matter. Great families are made up of healthy people. When we think about the kind of family we want to have, what ingredients are the most important?
