Dr. Lee Warren, a neurosurgeon from Nebraska, knows personally that trauma will reconfigure your life. After the tragic loss of his 19-year-old son, he knew he needed a plan and path back to a new season of hope, faith, peace—and even happiness. The first dose is hope—and it comes in the fo...

Many of us long for the abundant life Jesus promised, but instead we feel stagnant and frustrated in our faith.

Bryan Clark has served in pastoral ministry in Nebraska for more than 40 years. In that time, he’s observed a...

Forty-year youth ministry veteran Jeff Grenell believes too many churches have a Nickelodeon-style youth ministry model and actually treat kids about three years younger than they really are.

Culture is doing its best to convince the world there is nothing special about Jesus. Sadly, too many Christians never get beyond a Sunday school understanding of their own faith.
