Willpower can get you through a moment.
But it can’t sustain you for a lifetime.
If sin is fueled by desire, then the answer isn’t simply trying harder. It’s discovering a greater desire.
That’s why the Christian life isn’t just about saying no to sin — it’s about saying yes to the greater joy found in Christ.
The more beautiful Jesus becomes to us, the weaker sin’s promises become.
Message: 2023 Godward Life Panel
Our culture tells us to obsess over how we look.
Jesus calls us to become the kind of people who reflect him.
When God is at the center of your life, your priorities change.
You stop living for approval and start living for what lasts. Character matters more than appearance. God’s glory matters more than your image.
‘Taste and See’ by John Piper is filled with short, Scripture-soaked meditations to help you fix your eyes on what matters most.
Who is Jesus?
My Lord and Savior.
The Giver of life.
My strength when I’m weak.
My Provider.
The Great Physician.
My Protector and Guide.
My Counselor.
The Son of God.
Words will never be enough to describe who He is to me.
It’s easy to live like people owe you something — respect, attention, appreciation — and to get frustrated when they don’t give it.
But humility grows where grace overwhelms us. Grace in the cross behind us. Grace arriving moment by moment for the future ahead of us.
Christians are brought low not by shame but by mercy.
Freely you have been served. Freely serve.
Message: “The Mind of Christ: Looking Out for the Interests of Others”
So I'm gathering wood for the fire
I'm filling my lamp with the oil
Lord, in this season of waiting
Let my heart burn only for You
