Buy your children a book every month and have a date to talk about the book and what they’ve read. Talk about the characters like they’re real. Bond over literature. Debate the lessons and decision making. Over food and drinks. Cultivate readers and build their collection
New Super Bowl ad just dropped reminding women facing unexpected pregnancies that adoption is an option.
Rarely do we see an ad like this, especially during the Super Bowl. If one woman sees this & decides not to terminate her baby, then it's worth every penny spent @LiveAction
I’m increasingly convinced that the willingness to change your mind is the ultimate sign of intelligence. The most impressive people I know change their minds often in response to new information. It’s like a software update. The goal isn't to be right. It's to find the truth.
“Freedom of speech” is not “freedom from criticism.”
If you slander others or speak falsehoods, do not play the “free speech!” card when others rightfully confront or debunk you.
Not enough people talk about this:
But having your grandparents around is really one of the highest forms of wealth.
Sadly, most don’t even realize it.
Remember how after Charlie died, Bible sales boomed? Remember how we were all talking about revival?
Don’t lose sight of that.
Reading the Bible, believing it, applying it, and talking about it are what every Christian should want
A visual of 340,000 lines connecting Scripture to Scripture. Written across centuries, yet perfectly interlocked. The Bible is not a collection of random verses. It’s one Spirit-breathed story about God's redemption through His Son, Jesus Christ.
Sleep is one of the quiet mercies God gives us each day. We do not drift into rest because our bodies are clever or because our minds know how to shut down. We sleep because God, in His kindness, places rest upon the body and peace upon the mind. Scripture tells us plainly in Psalm 127:2 that God “gives His beloved sleep.” Rest is not a natural accident. It is a gift.
When we lie down at night, we are actually entering a moment of trust. Sleep is the one part of life where we release control completely. We close our eyes, our strength leaves us, our thoughts fade, and our lives are held only by the care of God. That is why David could say with confidence, “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety” in Psalm 4:8. He slept because God was awake.
Even our deepest worries and traumas cannot stop God from calming the mind when He chooses to give rest. Scripture acknowledges this reality. David cried, “My soul is greatly troubled” Psalm 6:3. Elijah could not rest until God restored him in 1 Kings 19:4-8. The Lord is “near to the brokenhearted” Psalm 34:18 and “heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds” Psalm 147:3. For the wounded, God gives rest slowly, gently, and patiently, restoring the inner life until sleep becomes possible again. He steadies the heart. He quiets the thoughts. He relaxes the muscles. He reminds us that we are creatures with limits, and He is the Creator without any.
People may use medicines or substances to force themselves into unconsciousness, but that is not the same as the nourishing rest God gives. True sleep restores the body, steadies the mind, and strengthens the spirit because it comes from the One who made us.
Every night we sleep, God is teaching us something about Himself. He is the Keeper who “will neither slumber nor sleep” in Psalm 121:3-4. He watches while we rest. He protects us through the hours we are unaware. He renews us for the next morning by His power.
Sleep is not a small thing. It is a daily reminder that we depend on God for everything. Every breath. Every heartbeat. Every hour of rest. Every morning, we open our eyes is proof that His mercies were new while we slept.
So when you fall asleep tonight, remember this: you are resting because God is holding you. Every night’s sleep is a whisper of His love, His care, and His faithfulness.
