Praying for Your Teen Rebel
“My wayward children,” says the Lord, “come back to me, and I will heal your wayward hearts.” — Jeremiah 3:22 NLT “Don’t talk to your kids about God as much as you talk to God about your kids.” I forget where I first heard that line, but it’s one of my favorite pieces of… The post Praying for Your Teen Rebel appeared first on FaithGateway.

The Place of Prayer in Suffering
When we look for the supreme model of a person devoted to prayer, we need only to look at the life of our Lord. Jesus was constantly in an attitude of prayer, and never more urgently than in the face of suffering. The night He was arrested, He was praying in the Garden of… The post The Place of Prayer in Suffering appeared first on FaithGateway.

Michael Sweet Fears the Bible May Soon Be Canceled
Recently on Twitter, Stryper frontman Michael Sweet started a discussion wondering if the Bible may soon be ‘canceled.’ It’s speculated that this discussion may have been started due to the recent news that Dr. Seuss books will no longer be published due to insensitive imagery, and other recent “cancel culture” news. “We’ve been handing out Bibles for almost 40 years. For the first time in my life I’m asking myself this question I wonder how long it will be before this book is canceled?” Michael tweeted. “I know it may seem like a silly thought but it’s really not. It’s just a matter of time. Frightening!” You can get involved…

Grammy Award Nominated Singer Jason Nelson Drops First Single in Three Years
Jason Nelson, best-known for his No. 1 gospel ballads “Shifting the Atmosphere” and “Forever,” is showcasing another dimension to his immense talent on the smooth, mid-tempo track, “Residue” (Tyscot FairTrade). Dueling guitars including Nelson on Bass open this R&B-flavored groove about a bright future with no residue of a dark past. “The blind mark on my soul has been erased,” Nelson testifies. The warm track shows the Baltimore, MD native’s seemingly effortless and soulfully measured tenor that is on par with that of Charlie Wilson or Luther Vandross. “Residue” was inspired by the idea that being in proximity to GOD has a cleansing effect on a person,” Nelson explains. “The…

Viruses: The Problem of God
By Him all things were created, in Heaven and on earth, visible and invisible. — Colossians 1:16 I don’t tend to see things from the virus’s point of view. With virtually every creature I know about, I have moments when I consider them as living beings in their own right.

Knowing the Power of God
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.” (Romans 1:16, NIV) I remember the corporate world. I was afraid that people would judge me for being a Christian. Will they think I am odd if I share about Jesus? That I am too radical if I want to start a bible study during lunch? There was a part in me that wanted to hide who I was to please the person before me. Be it family, a co-worker, or sometimes even a stranger, I felt responsible to take…
