“Cancer quickly reveals who and what we ultimately trust. It can bring life into eternal perspective, so long as we don’t despair in our illness. If we feast on Christ, we will find our sins don’t taste so rich any longer. Even well-known pastors must fight this battle. They might appear to have it all, More >

about 10 months ago - No comments
American evangelicalism has not done a great job at making Jesus the point of the enterprise of faith.

And cares for her, He is God
Chorus:
Our God loves us, and cares for us
And though we might suffer through much
He’s More >
