Weekly Devotional

John 3:30 contains the words of one of the greatest men during Jesus’ earthly ministry, but I believe it is a mindset that is so easily lost amidst our media-saturated culture.

This past week has been one I won’t forget. We traveled to an unexpected funeral, and a dear friend passed along this quote which stuck with me throughout the week.

I have a thing for baby feet. Call me strange, but I love to smell them, squeeze them, and just kiss them all over!

I was struck by a statement while reading a Bible commentary by Warren Wiersbe: “What you do with your heart determines what you do with your life.” 

This week I was so encouraged when I got a text message saying: “Thinking of you and I wanted to know if there is one specific thing I could pray for you about?”

All across this country people gather to remember that monumental day, 246 years ago — now we have the freedom to share about the greatest freedom!

Last night as I was reading my Bible, the words jumped right off the page at me. If you’re like me, you’ve probably wondered how there can be so much evil in the world. The wickedness is running rampant.

What's the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of "sacrifice"? I looked up the meaning of the word as I pondered what it personally means to me today.
