Psalm 51:5 says, "Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me." Sin is natural to us as humans, so going an entire day without sinning would be like a fish taking a break from swimming for a day. Is there any hope for us? https://t.co/l3nDWMWK0y

Spending time with God is not so much about putting Him into a box on the calendar or as a 20-minute bullet on your to-do list. Rather, it's about keeping Him at the forefront of your mind throughout the day. https://t.co/tbXjZZPCQo

As believers of Christ, we should all be working toward glorifying the Lord. So will a "white lie" count for or against the goodness that will glorify Him? If the lie doesn't hurt anyone, does it even count? What if it would hurt a person to tell them the truth? ...

Treating all religions as equally true or valid is both lazy and disrespectful. It's lazy because grappling with the differences is not easy. It's disrespectful because it means ignoring what sincere people believe in favor of something you'd prefer to imagine instead. ...

"Follow your heart" is one of those feelgood themes that shows up practically everywhere—movies, books, music, and memes. But you know what? That's not the advice the Bible gives. The human heart is kind of an emotional, messy wreck most of the time. Wouldn't you agree? ...

The safety of our soul is something we don't want to just "hope for the best" on. Our God is the God of renewal and new beginnings, and He provided His Word to help us understand our security in His love. https://t.co/8kop7FZvIz

Divorce is a stressful and sad time, no matter what the reasoning behind it is. A family gets torn apart because of divorce—often over seemingly petty reasons. Turning to the Bible, I found answers to my questioning thoughts. https://t.co/DetSjatxyn

Those with the gift of helping will have strong empathy for others and a sense of needs that must be met in individuals' lives. Helpers render their gift of service to build up others, assisting and supporting the body of Christ. #lookforthehelpers #spiritualgifts ...

People will call themselves a "born again" Christian or say you must be "born again" to be saved. They might even say that a person isn't a "real" Christian unless they are a #BornAgain believer. Where does this term come from and what does it mean? https://t.co/hV0FMPJlYT
