Guilt, pain, and failure are three of the most difficult experiences in our spiritual lives
Jesus gives us the ultimate example of how to love, connect, and have deep relationships.
When our goal is to love people, we don’t have to worry about success or failure in life
God will give us a new heart, a new way of thinking, and new strength to move forward
God wants to give us lasting confidence and teaches us how to get it through his early disciples.
Jesus endured the pressures of sin, and we can learn from him how to do the same.
God doesn’t want any of us to go through storms alone.
In our moments of frustration and failure, we need to turn to God and his Word to find the strength to keep going.
Returning to God is the only way we can stop living for people, stop being afraid of being different, and rediscover what it means to think differently.
God is relational; he wants a friendship with us, not a religious performance.
The parables of Jesus show that he understands you, can help you understand yourself, and help you understand God.
We need to acknowledge what is wearing us out, especially the ways in which we become focused on rules and behaviors.
