    Our Father

    Almost two years ago I became a dad, and it has changed how I view my relationship with God completely. Sure, I understood rationally that God is my Father, but I had no concept of it experientially. I am blessed to have a great human dad, but there are still some things that are only

    Abide In His Word

    This is part one of a two-part blog series exploring Jesus’ powerful teaching in John 8:30-32. In this passage, Jesus calls His followers to go deeper than belief – to remain, stay, and dwell in His Word.
