Having compassion is a good place to start, but it's what we do with it that matters most.

Janine’s story began with seeing a need and deciding she couldn’t simply look away. What usually moves us from noticing a need to actually doing something about it?

Transformation begins when we stop drifting toward what's familiar and start deliberately pursuing what's true.

Our reactions may reveal more about what’s happening inside us than what’s happening around us.

Some of the things we believe most deeply about ourselves and others may not be as true as they feel.

What if what’s standing between you and your next season isn’t a lack of vision—but a lack of courage? Fear often disguises itself as comfort, comparison, or procrastination. In "Hello From the Other Side", discover what it means to leave the familiar behind, choose courage, and cross over to the other side of fear.

The fear of what might happen can keep us managing, hiding, and pretending long after we know something needs to change.

Blame has a way of protecting us from an uncomfortable truth: the other person may not be the only one with something to own.

Sometimes what we call “complicated” is really fear in disguise. And until we name it honestly, we'll never find the courage to move forward.

Your greatest victory may not be in getting the outcome you want, but discovering a different kind of win.

Everyone wants people who will show up when life begins to unravel. Far fewer of us are willing to be the kind of friend who steps in before it does.

We all see needs in the world around us. We all agree that someone should do something. How do we know when that person is us? Jesus told a story so powerful we're all still talking about it today. And if we live by it, it would not only change our lives but our community as well.

There are a lot of areas of our lives where we find ourselves saying, "It can wait." According to Jesus, that's not how he wants us t approach our relationship with God. When it comes to our faith, he's inviting us to live by the story that says, "Get ready now." Join us as we unpack a parable meant to disrupt our lives and change our faith for the better.

How good are we at applying the lessons we learn in life? Are we any better when it comes to the teachings of Jesus? The parable of the builders gives every person a challenge to assess how we are responding to Jesus.

The founders believed liberty was worth risking everything for, but they also understood it came with a hidden requirement. Two hundred fifty years later, that requirement matters more than ever.

Many Christians spend their lives measuring themselves by whether or not they are obeying all the rules. That’s not what Jesus intended.

Somewhere along the way, many of us began treating God's love and approval as something to earn. That assumption quietly shapes our relationship with God more than we realize.

We often think freedom comes from having fewer obligations, but some of the most meaningful moments in life begin when we embrace a weight we never asked to carry.

Long before the storm arrived, Noah made a decision about whose wisdom he would trust.

Chaos rarely arrives all at once. It often begins with ordinary choices that seem reasonable until the consequences finally surface.

The gap between skepticism and faith starts to close when Christianity is viewed through the lens of history. In this conversation with Andy Stanley and John Dickson, the story of Jesus is presented as something meant to be investigated, not avoided.

Have you ever sent someone thoughts and prayers? When someone is having a tough time, we instinctively want to help however we can, including prayer. But we don't always know how to pray or even if our prayers will make a difference. Jesus wants to change that. He is inviting us to join him in praying prayers for people that work. Join us as we learn from him how to upgrade our prayers for the peo...

Jesus taught us to talk to God. But does God ever talk back? Is our relationship with God meant to be a monologue or a dialogue? The truth is, God is speaking, and he has something to say to you. We just have to learn to listen. Join us as we discover how to listen to God and experience more of his voice in our lives.
