The fundamentality of goodness should shape our vision, our emotions, and our actions.

Life is full of stress and trouble.  Yet, Psalm 131 proclaims that God is enough to get us through.  And because that is true, we can be a people who resist anxious pride, cultivate humility, and hope in the Lord even when life is tough.  A calm soul hopes in the Lord.

Rev. Derek Rishmawy brings us a message from Exodus 4:10-17.

Trials and sufferings convince us that God has abandoned us, but Psalm 46 reminds us that God is with us and for us, even when it feels like everything and everyone is against us.

The glory of the gospel is that Jesus came into the world to save great sinners like you and me. In yet another act of overflowing mercy, he chooses to use us to display his grace to the world.

While all agree that progressive sanctification is important but does the Scripture view progress the same way we do? Is growth in the Christian life an acquisition of more strength or is it reckoning with our weakness? This devotion hopes to wrestle with the strength of weakness in the Christian life.

If you are a faithful pastor you will suffer rejection. But as you persevere in serving others with God’s power, truth and love, like Jesus, you win by losing.
