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.

We all have people in our lives who see the world differently than we do. And no matter how hard we try, we just can’t seem to find common ground. But Jesus didn't let differences create distance.

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 have ugliness in our lives. And we're all tempted to hide it. But hiding it is what could be keeping us from far more than we realize.

Bringing our unfiltered pain to God doesn't shock or offend Him—He actually invites it. He wants our honesty in the darkness because He can handle every bit of it.

In Psalm 8, David reflects on the fact that the incredibly powerful God who created the universe is the same God who thinks about cares for individual people. He’s big enough to handle our honesty, and personal enough to want it.

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.

In Part 3 of Questions That Change Us, we come to one of the most important questions Jesus asks: “Who do you say I am?” It can be easy to talk about public opinion or what others believe about Jesus, but eventually, the question becomes personal. This isn’t about what the crowds say. It’s about your response. When you consider Jesus’s impact, actions, and claims, you’re faced with a decision that...

In Part 2 of Questions That Change Us, we look at another powerful question Jesus asks: “Do you want to get well?” We may think the answer is an obvious one, but it actually may not be–because this question is about more than physical healing. It’s a question about desire, responsibility, and action. Do you truly want to get well? Are you willing to take the next step? Jesus shows us that healing...

In Part 1 of Questions That Change Us, we look at this question Jesus asks: “What do you want?” Jesus already knows the answer, but he encourages us to be honest with ourselves, to reflect on our deepest desires, and bring them before him. This is more than a question—it’s an invitation to honesty, courage, and growth. How we answer may not only shape our decisions but who we are becoming.
