God wants us to jump in the pool of grace to swim, not to struggle. How we interact with His grace makes all the difference in our experience of the Christian life.

We can miss the more urgent thing because we get distracted by the immediate. As we begin exploring John 5, Jesus encourages us not to miss what’s truly important.

What does the righteousness God wants in us really look like?

Wisdom isn’t something meant to get on and off of. So do we want on?

Proverbs challenges us to be aware of where we are leaving the gracious confines of God’s way. The trouble for us is that we don’t even notice as we wander.

As Jesus ascended into Heaven, the disciples needed to be challenged on what they were going to do next.

We keep wanting knowledge and power to get to what we think will make ourselves secure. God calls us instead to see how He makes us secure.

We continue to explore Psalm 9 by returning to what God values. Are we keeping our focus and our actions on Him or veering off course?

God had just routed the mightiest army of the ancient world on Hezekiah’s behalf, then healed him from a terminal illness—and somehow, facing the next threat, Hezekiah forgot both and went looking for an ally he could hold onto. Isaiah 39 traces how that forgetfulness works in a believing heart, and why it’s the sneakiest danger of all.

When we read about God’s judgment, we can wonder if God is the one putting us into bad places and how it could possibly be that someone who is loving would do that. Scripture helps us see things are actually a “tad” different than that.
