The Dashboard of Dating, Part 1
Dating isn’t just about finding the right person… it’s about becoming the kind of person who honors Christ in the process. If you’re dating or considering it, here are 5 gospel-shaped principles that will help you pursue not just love, but lasting holiness.
Feel Like Escaping Your Problems?
We’re promised that we will face hardship in this life, yet many of us are prone to run. Do you feel like escapism is the way to security? Jesus offers us a better option. Escape to Him, embrace the furnace, and experience fullness of life in Christ.
True Contentment
Discontentment stems from prideful desires that conflict with reality, but Psalm 131 shows us a better way: humble, childlike trust and quietness before God. True and lasting contentment comes from hoping in the Lord, ultimately fulfilled in Christ, who perfectly embodied contentment and redirects our desires toward God himself.

Dating is a long, winding journey that can only be navigated well when fueled by the gospel of Jesus Christ. By rooting our relationships in His sacrificial love, we’re freed from self-centered striving and empowered to pursue dating and marriage for God’s glory and our ultimate joy.

So as our faith and social lives overlap more and more, the question becomes, “what is a Biblical view of FOMO?”
Gradually Then Suddenly
So often as Christians pursue sanctification and growth in godliness the idea isn’t sudden victory, but daily obedience that God uses to produce lasting change. See how this idea of gradual then suddenly changes how we view our personal growth in God.
Have No Fear of Them
Christians should fear God rather than men, confidently proclaiming the gospel while trusting in their heavenly Father's love and care.
The Heart of the Home (a Poem)
Motherhood—whether through birth, adoption, or spiritual care—is a sacred calling and vocation. It reflects God’s character in a variety of ways. We recognize that we live in a time when this calling is often overlooked, downplayed, or treated as less significant than other vocations. But in the eyes of God, it is noble, vital, and eternally impactful.
