As we seek true and lasting joy, Christ shows us the way and serves as our example.

We don’t have to travel overseas or spearhead a formal missions project to powerfully serve “the least of these”—our own homes and families provide opportunities for fruitful gospel ministry too.

Jesus’ love for Thomas in his disbelief compels us to bring our own doubts and questions before the Lord in prayer, trusting him to renew our faith.

When we feel like grasping for “mine” in motherhood, God reminds us that our lives and responsibilities are ultimately his.

When we feel anger raging inside, we can come to Scripture for the power we need to fight temptation and put on the love of Christ.

Hannah’s honest, desperate prayer in 1 Samuel models how we can turn to the God of peace in the midst of our own overwhelm.

One of the greatest comforts we can offer a suffering friend is coming alongside her to lament and point her heart to Christ.

We may feel unprepared for the unexpected journeys of motherhood, but we can trust that God gives us everything that we need.

In motherhood, God gives us the opportunity not only to give his grace to our children but also to receive it from them.

God’s relationship with his children reminds us that discipline and grace can work in tandem, helping us parent our own kids towards both a right obedience and a right worship.

When we’re craving comfort as moms, God pours it out on us abundantly through his people, his Word, and his very nature.

When we’re willing to make the first move in friendship, we can reflect the love and pursuit of our ultimate friend, Jesus.
