    Jesus’ command that we pick up our cross and follow him is a choice, and a choice that doesn’t come without sacrifice, but also bring sjoy and fulfillment

    There’s the story of a soldier frantically digging in during battle as shells fall all around him. Suddenly his hand feels something metal and he grabs it. It’s a silver cross. Another shell explodes and he buries his head in his arms. He feels someone jump in the foxhole with him and he looks over ...read more

    The challenge Esther received is found in Esther 4:14 and it may very well be the challenge that our Savior has for you at this point in your life.

    Why are you positioned where you are? Why do you work where you work? Why do you live where you live? Why do you go to school where you go to school? Why do you go to church where you go to church? You do what you do because God has assigned you there - and here – “for such at time as ...read more
