What is Your ‘Christian Witness’?
Your life speaks louder than your words. Your Christian witness is about living with Christ so clearly that your kindness, humility and Spirit-shaped character actually point people to him.
A New Kind of Life
Love, at its deepest, always costs something. It’s not just sentiment—it’s sacrifice, presence and patience. We discover this not just in marriage or parenting, but in ordinary, daily encounters with neighbors and friends. The “frets and rubs” of life, as C.S. Lewis called them, are part of how God shapes us — how he teaches us to love like he does. And that’s the beginning of a new kind of life.
Faith in the Storm: A Primer on Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Dietrich Bonhoeffer refused to let faith be a private sentiment or theological exercise. When Nazi ideology infiltrated the German church, he stood against it, insisting that discipleship meant action — even when it cost him his life. His writings, from “The Cost of Discipleship” to “Letters and Papers from Prison,” continue to challenge believers today: Will we live by conviction, or will we settle for cheap grace?
Our Identity and the Freedom to Serve
I will not tire of this—my fascination with people and my desire to understand what it means for them to feel alive, curious, and filled with wonder. People who live fully awake to the weight of their selves are irresistible. There is nothing more attractive, alluring, and captivating.
Can you think of someone in your life who feels the weight of their identity? They know who they are because they’ve let themselves feel it. They are not ashamed. They make no excuses about their personality–feeling neither insufficient nor too much. They know they are loved like they are, so shame has no hold on them.
