A Plate of Sweet and Succulent Figs
Taste and See God’s Satisfaction After Leif and I moved to Salt Lake City from Colorado, I would often slip out on late-afternoon walks to explore our surrounding neighborhood where fruit trees dotted the streets. The sweet fragrance of their spring blossoms soon gave way to the ripening of apples and apricots, pears and plums…. The post A Plate of Sweet and Succulent Figs appeared first on FaithGateway.

Helping Our Kids Know That God Is Real
Last night in Kids’ Church we discussed the topic of being a hero. The program used the acronym H.E.R.O (helping others, evangelizing, relying on God, and obeying God).

CCM Artists Share Their New Year’s Resolutions
by Matt Conner Stockings have been emptied. Presents have been opened. A month full of dinners and parties and gatherings have come and gone and left us full of food we shouldn’t have eaten and, hopefully, meaningful holiday moments. As we turn the corner this wintry season, we often take time to reflect upon the last 12 months while we make decisions about the year ahead. As you think about the sort of hopes you have for 2019, we thought we’d ask some of our favorite artists for inspiration by giving us their own resolutions. Jonny Diaz I want to be more present. I want to limit distraction, like…

Interpreting Dreams with God’s Wisdom
In one of the most disturbing dreams I have had, I walked into the prayer room at my ministry and it was dark. That wasn’t altogether unusual because during the worship time on Friday night corporate prayer the lights are often dimmed.

Breakfast with Jesus
Peter is my favorite disciple because of how obviously flawed and human he is. (Man, can I relate to Peter!) After he denied knowing Jesus three times, he was completely (and pretty understandably) devastated. Believing his time as a disciple was over, he returned to his previous way of life as a fisherman. (Isn’t that… The post Breakfast with Jesus appeared first on FaithGateway.

The Start of Hope
The classic comeback story contains one of two twists. It’s either about an underdog who falters and then succeeds beyond his dreams, or it’s about a champion who falls, fights hard, and makes a big return. Either way, it’s about a person in pain whose pain is alleviated or who is able to see… The post The Start of Hope appeared first on FaithGateway.
