Friday Devotional - Jesus in the Book of Joel

We’ve been working through the Old Testament looking for the New Testament Jesus hundreds, even thousands, of years before He was born. They’re all great stories on their own, but they absolutely paint a picture of who Jesus will be and what he’ll do for those who believe.

Friday Devotions - The Invisible but Real Enemy

Devotions – The Invisible but Real Enemy Ephesians 6:10-18. The enemy is Satan, he is powerful and real.

Friday Devotional - Beauty from Ashes

A blog I read (listed below) talks about how life can be really hard sometimes and that in the Bible, ashes symbolize deep repentance and grief. There’s plenty of examples in the Bible about God’s people who experience hardship, yet God redeems their experiences (i.e., Job, Daniel, etc.).
