WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE DEVIL’S TRICKS by Andrew Menkis for Core Christianity “Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8). The reality of life for Christians is that we have an enemy.

Have Evangelicals Forgotten God?

Have Evangelicals Forgotten God? by MATTHEW LEE ANDERSON for The Gospel Coalition Despite the “evidence of ongoing vitality, the evangelical movement shows disturbing signs of dissipating its energies and forfeiting its initiative.” While this sentiment has pervaded discussions about evangelicals over the past decade, the close association of Donald Trump with “evangelicalism” has raised it to a feverish pitch.

‘The Greatest Faith Is Born in the Hour of Despair’: A Prayer for America Amid Protests & Pandemics By Tré Goins-Phillips for Faith Wire News In college, I remember hearing our campus pastor’s frequent refrain: “A diamond shines brightest against a black backdrop.” His point was that, as the world grows darker, and our sin paints an increasingly gloomy picture of this temporal existence, the Gospel is illuminated all the more.

8 BIBLE READING HABITS TO ESTABLISH AS A YOUNG PERSON

8 BIBLE READING HABITS TO ESTABLISH AS A YOUNG PERSON by David Murray for Core Christianity Start Now to Form Good Habits There were years when I didn’t read my Bible at all. Sometimes, I would do it on and off, a few days then stop, a few weeks then stop. Other times I would do it legalistically, thinking that I had to read a certain number of verses every day to keep on God’s good side. Very rarely did I get many benefits out of it. My adolescent years…

What Gospel Does Your Life Preach?

What Gospel Does Your Life Preach? by GREG LAURIE for Charisma News Mark Twain once said, “Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example.” Each of us is either a good example or a bad one. And, like it or not, each of us is an example of some kind. I think there are a lot of people in the church today who pretend to be something they’re really not. They’re playing a game.
