You Were Made for This: Fight for It
Editor’s note: Who are we? Why are we here? What’s the purpose? What are we supposed to be doing? Those questions can haunt women and stall us from moving forward in joy and with passion using the gifts we have to affect the lives of others for the Kingdom of God. The following excerpt from… The post You Were Made for This: Fight for It appeared first on FaithGateway.

Killing Sin
Killing Sin Is Confirmation I love airports. For many they are a source of stress, but for me they are a respite. I think it is the camaraderie of so many people on a similar journey, submitting to a similar process. Before you enter the terminal there are many steps through which every passenger must… The post Killing Sin appeared first on FaithGateway.

Surrender Is Scary
I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. — John 12:24-25 ESV A seed comes from the… The post Surrender Is Scary appeared first on FaithGateway.

When You Believe in God but Not in Prayer
A pastor once asked his church to pray that God would shut down a neighborhood bar. The whole church gathered for an evening prayer meeting, pleading with God to rid the neighborhood of the evils of this bar. A few weeks later, lightning struck the bar and it burned to the ground. Having heard about… The post When You Believe in God but Not in Prayer appeared first on FaithGateway.

Grace: Getting What We Don’t Deserve
One of my dear friends, Elizabeth, came from an exceptionally broken and destructive family—a family whose experience included prison, abuse, and suicide. At sixteen years old, Elizabeth cried in anger to her mentor, “This is not fair! I don’t deserve this family, this life!” Most of us would agree with this outcry from a sweet teenage girl subjected to such a life. Elizabeth’s mentor knew Jesus, and . . . replied, “You’re right. You don’t deserve this life. You deserve hell and death, and so do I. God’s gracious love for us provided a Savior who took our sins and died for them. He didn’t deserve death, and we don’t deserve life. It…

I Married My First Date
It was a steamy August afternoon when I spotted the tall handsome senior drummer the first day of marching band practice. One of my giddy fellow freshman girlfriends pointed him out to me, since she had a crush on him. Of course, he had no idea any of us wide-eyed ninth graders existed as he strutted on the field a head above all the rest of the band. The summer sun had kissed him in the color of bronze, and his long locks of brown still celebrated a break from the school dress code. Wow, I thought, how could my friend ever think he would notice an awkward fourteen year…

You Will Surely Not Die by Beth Woods
Uniquely And Cleverly Done You Will Surely Not Die by Beth Woods is a marvellous Christian contemporary novel which I really enjoyed. It had a totally unique storyline, imagining what life would be like if Adam and Eve had not died but merely been banished from Eden. I found the tale very reminiscent of the […]

Meet the Team: Betsy
As we head into 2019, we’re going to take some time and give you a behind-the-scenes look at the Redeemed Reader team. So, with Hayley (our executive assistant) as interviewer, we’re starting off with our Managing Editor and Staff writer, Betsy Farquhar. What is your first reading memory? What are some books you remember your mom reading aloud to you?I remember —vividly— the first page I ever read on my own. I can remember lying on the couch in our den, and I must have been about 5, but it was before kindergarten. It’s the page in Danny and the Dinosaur with the gorillas. Suddenly, I was actually reading the words. It…
