We say Jesus is worth everything—but does the way we live actually show it? In Mark 14, a woman pours out an incredibly expensive jar of perfume on Jesus. Everyone around her calls it a waste.

Because eventually, what matters most to us sho...

In this episode of Your Weekly Calling , Brad talks about how God uses grace to shape the small areas of our lives—the way we r...

We’re really good at chasing what’s next. We’re not always so good at celebrating what God has already done.
