I Live Where the Machines Are Made
Jennifer Camp

As technology grows more capable, the question becomes more personal: What does it mean to remain fully human? When every shortcut promises ease, discover the quiet invitation to think deeply, feel honestly and stay rooted in the voice of God. In a restless world of endless noise, his presence still steadies the heart — and reminds us who made us in the first place.

Don’t know where to begin?

Start here.

Earth’s crammed with heaven, and every common bush afire with God. But only he who sees, takes off his shoes. The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

How is Forgiveness Even Possible?

How is Forgiveness Even Possible?
Lisa TerKeurst

Forgiveness doesn’t begin when the pain fades; it begins when we choose, however trembling, to place our hurt in God’s hands.

Reversing the Explosion: the Big Bang, but Backward

Reversing the Explosion: the Big Bang, but Backward
J.D. Lyonhart

Playing the universe backward, everything rushes toward a beginning it never had to have. Possibility narrows to a single point where nothing should exist — and yet something does.

Everything is Spiritual

The sacred doesn’t start when the music does on Sunday morning; it starts when you wake up, when you breathe, when you create, when you serve.

God isn’t distant or detached; he’s a good Father who delights in providing for his kids. But his power is released when our priorities align with his. Seek first his kingdom — his values, his ways.

Radical Forgiveness

Radical Forgiveness
John Eldredge

Forgiveness isn’t a suggestion — it’s survival. Every day, offenses stack up: a rude driver, a snarky comment, a deep betrayal. Jesus calls us to forgive it all. Not later. Now.

A spiritual kingdom lies all about us, enclosing us, embracing us, altogether within reach of our inner selves, waiting for us to recognize it. God Himself is here waiting for our response to His presence. This eternal world will come alive to us the moment we begin to reckon upon its reality.” —A. W. Tozer

Most of Us Are Agnostics — Even Pastors
Paul Prather

Faith is not the absence of questions. Sometimes the deepest disciples are the ones who keep following Jesus even when certainty feels out of reach. If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, discover why honest questions need not weaken your faith — and why surrender, not perfect certainty, has always been the truest mark of trust.

Editors’ SuggestionS

Do You Know Kierkegaard?

Kierkegaard had little patience for comfortable Christianity. Faith, to him, was not a social identity or moral polish, but the hardest work of becoming oneself before God. Pleasure could distract. Duty could impress. Neither could save. True faith required surrender beyond what society could validate or reason could neatly explain. It was costly, daily and unfinished — a leap toward God that had to be made again and again.
