As Christians, we are called to be faithful in prayer, not only for ourselves but also for our communities, our nation, and our leaders. In a time when our world faces so many challenges, prayer is one of the most powerful tools we have to bring about change, peace, and wisdom.
On January 8, 1956, five young missionaries gave their lives while reaching out to the Waodani (Auca) people of Ecuador.
Their story is a powerful testimony of sacrifice and unwavering obedience to Christ’s call to make disciples of all nations.
Despite knowing the risks, these men pressed on, driven by the love of Christ and the conviction that no life is beyond the transforming power of the Gospel.
Every year, as the calendar flips to January, we find ourselves swept up in the tradition of setting resolutions.
Lose weight. Read more. Save money.
While these are worthwhile pursuits, how often do they fizzle out by February?
As Christians, we are called to something deeper than fleeting resolutions.
Every year, my fridge and dining room hutch start filling up with Christmas cards—some with beautiful family photos, others with heartfelt messages. It’s such a joy to hear from friends and family, near and far. But as the season wraps up, I’ve found myself wanting these cards to become more than just festive décor.
Life’s surprises can leave us feeling disappointed, like expecting a sweet grape but getting a tomato instead.
This Christmas, discover how true peace comes from trusting God’s perfect will, even in the unexpected.
Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless His holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits. — Psalm 103:1-2
As we approach Thanksgiving, join us on a seven-day journey of gratitude, reflecting on God’s blessings and provisions. Each day, meditate on the following scripture passages to nurture a heart of gratitude and thanksgiving.
In a world that often celebrates individual achievement, Christian kindness calls us to something greater: a humble, selfless love for one another.
As we wrap up National Kindness Week, let’s look closely at the unique qualities and the practical truths of “brotherly kindness”—a virtue that not only strengthens our relationships but also serves as a powerful witness to the world around us.
In mid-October, seventeen FBC couples of all ages headed to a Couples’ Conference at The Wilds Christian Camp in the mountains of Brevard, North Carolina.
Leaves were turning golden and reddish hues, and evidence of Hurricane Helene’s flooding littered the roadsides with dried mud, downed trees, and debris.
Despite sustaining some storm damage, The Wilds opened up for camp just days before Friendship couples came to enjoy God’s beauty, great food, and fun activities, along with biblical teaching, music, and fellowship.
The term G.O.A.T., which stands for the “Greatest of All Time,” ignites debates across numerous areas of expertise.
Who is the greatest classical composer? Mozart, Bach, or Beethoven?
Who’s the G.O.A.T. of U.S. Presidents? Think about the faces on Mount Rushmore: Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt, and Jefferson.
In the NBA, the age-old argument continues—who’s the greatest? King James (LeBron) or Michael Jordan?
But today, I want to take that question into a different realm.
Life is full of change.
Just as nature goes through seasons of spring, summer, fall, and winter, we too experience seasons in our lives. Some are filled with joy, growth, and abundance, while others are marked by challenges, loss, or waiting.
But through every shift and transition, there is one truth we can hold onto: God never changes—He is always the same.
