For a lot of Christians, the Gospel is about salvation and only salvation. Jesus died on the cross to save us from receiving the punishment for our sins - an eternity of separation from God in Hell. Therefore, the reason to become a Christian is to be saved. And once you’re saved, you’re just waiting for this wretched, sinful world to come to an end so you can finally enjoy the fruits of Jesus’ salvation. I feel like these Christians, well-meaning though they are, are selling Jesus short. His sa...

We believers want to know the will of God, but at times it can feel unknowable.

Don’t worry - you don’t have to go to divinity school or get the Pope on a Zoom call. But there are some ways you can prepare yourself to receive...

Today, the church is facing a real crisis. It’s losing members, it’s losing enthusiasm, and it’s frustrating believers to the point of despair. And what’s behind this despair that’s creeping into the church? I believe it’s caused by the church focusing on the wrong things. Instead of focusing on Christ’s power to bring internal transformation to believers, so many churches are more concerned with external transformations - making sure everybody acts a certain way, even if they don’t feel it on t...
