Apr 2200:29:20Tap to summarizeGod's will is “good, pleasing, and perfect” (Romans 12:2) Suffering will test you, but the “tests” don’t come from God (or from the will of God). Life will supply many tests and trials. It is God’s will that you respond to our suffering “according to His will.”

Peter - Passion, Failure, & Faith
Feb 2500:32:02Tap to summarizePeter is one of the most well-known figures of the New Testament. Leader to the core, his passionate impulses led to both his best and worst moments. Jesus groomed him so he'd be ready to lead the church at Pentecost. His personality traits are not uncommon to all leaders. What's important is that we submit to Christ's rebukes and guidance so we can lead more effectively.
Transcribe →Renewal in Christ Requires Sincere Love
Jan 1500:27:26Tap to summarize"Love must be sincere." If it's not, is it truly love? Renewal is a desire that we all have. We want to change where change is needed. We want to reclaim the good we have lost or wandered away from. We want to recover and discover how best to live in this world. How to spread hope and to live at peace with others. None of this can happen without "sincere love".
