“He saved us, not by works of righteousness that we had done, but according to his mercy, through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit.” – Titus 3:5 Mercy is one of the most beautiful words in Scripture. It means that God chooses compassion when we deserve condemnation. It means He moves toward us when He could have turned away. Mercy is the story of every believer, because n...  Read More

“For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God’s gift.” – Ephesians 2:8 Faith is one of the most talked-about words in Christianity, yet it is often misunderstood. Many people think faith itself has the power to save us, as if believing hard enough could somehow earn God’s favor. But faith is not the hero of our salvation. Jesus is. Faith is simply our respon...  Read More

“See, the virgin will become pregnant and give birth to a son, and they will name him Emmanuel, which is translated ‘God is with us.’” – Matthew 1:23 Christmas is not just a story about a baby born in Bethlehem. It is the story of God stepping into human history. The Creator entered creation. The infinite became an infant. Jesus did not send help from a distance. He became the help we needed. The ...  Read More

“The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.” – John 1:9 For four hundred years, heaven was silent. No prophets spoke. No new words came from God. The people of Israel waited, generation after generation, wondering when the promised Messiah would arrive. The world grew darker, and hope felt distant. But then, at just the right moment, silence was broken, not by thunder o...  Read More

“He believed in God, who gives life to the dead and calls things into existence that do not exist.” – Romans 4:17 Abraham’s story is one of faith against all odds. God promised him that he would become the father of many nations, but everything about his situation said otherwise. He was old, his wife was barren, and time seemed to have passed them by. Yet Abraham believed. He trusted the God who b...  Read More

“So that in the coming ages he might display the immeasurable riches of his grace through his kindness to us in Christ Jesus.” – Ephesians 2:7 Every salvation story is a story of grace. When God saves us, He does more than forgive our sins and give us eternal life. He transforms our lives into living evidence of His mercy. We become displays of His goodness, walking testimonies of His love, and re...  Read More

“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do.” – Ephesians 2:10 When God saved you, He did far more than pull you out of sin. He brought you into purpose. Salvation is not just about what you were rescued from; it’s about what you were rescued for. God’s grace did not just save your life. It gave your life meaning. Paul says we ...  Read More

“They are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.” – Romans 3:24 Most of the things we value in life have to be earned. We work hard for a paycheck, we train to achieve goals, and we strive to prove ourselves in the eyes of others. That mindset can make it difficult to understand grace. God’s way of salvation does not operate on human terms. It is not somethin...  Read More

“For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God’s gift—not from works, so that no one can boast.” – Ephesians 2:8-9 If there is one truth that separates the message of Jesus from every other belief system in the world, it is grace. Most religions teach that we must work our way toward God, earning His favor through effort and good deeds. The gospel teaches the...  Read More

“But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love that he had for us, made us alive with Christ even though we were dead in trespasses. You are saved by grace.” – Ephesians 2:4-5 There are few phrases in Scripture more powerful than these two words: But God. They mark the turning point in every believer’s story. We were lost, broken, and spiritually dead, but God stepped in. When there was...  Read More

“And you were dead in your trespasses and sins.” – Ephesians 2:1 The Bible does not describe our condition before knowing Christ as weak or misguided. It says we were dead. That truth is hard to hear, but it is essential to understand the depth of what God has done for us. We were not bad people who needed a little improvement. We were spiritually lifeless, completely unable to save ourselves, and...  Read More

“The Spirit himself testifies together with our spirit that we are God’s children, and if children, also heirs—heirs of God and coheirs with Christ—if indeed we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him.” – Romans 8:16-17 There is a deep desire inside every human heart to belong. We long to be known, accepted, and loved. The good news of the gospel is that when we place our faith i...  Read More
