“And he brought him to Jesus” (Jn 1:42). Andrew is known only for bringing his brother, the boy with the loaves and fish, and the Greeks, to Jesus. Will you recommend Christ today? “Jesus is the best thing that’s ever happened to me!” […]

“He who has pity on the poor lends to the Lord, and He will pay back what he has given” (Prov 19:17). Don’t be surprised if God asks you for a loan today. Imagine! God makes Himself a debtor for everything given to the poor! Are you willing—and prepared—to advance Him the credit? […]

“Now I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another” (Rom 15:14). Anyone can be a critic, but we are called to admonish. The difference? A critic points out wrongs; admonishing encourages us to make it right. Goodness + […]

“Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves” (Jas 1:22). Tozer wrote that drivers aren’t safe by reading road signs but by obeying them. Christianity requires action. It’s a common delusion that mere talk makes things better. Hear—then DO. […]
