Many Christians do not have a full understanding of what it means to fight the good fight of faith. They try to live by faith but in the face of everyday trials and failures, they find themselves disillusioned and discouraged, wondering if they have done something wrong or if living by faith only works for others.

A customizable 30-day prayer calendar for your next event! Last year my husband and I joined a team of other marriage ministry leaders to create our church's first ever retreat for marriage mentors.

For the 30 days before our event, we had a team of people praying the same prayers daily. Some of us added fasting days once a week. God honored our dedication to making this His work. He showed up big time! The event...

FOR THE BRAND-NEW CHRISTIAN Christmas Edition of the Grace Warrior Devotional Series. Seeing the Babe-in-a-manger piece haphazardly stuffed between the Ninja Turtle Cowabunga Christmas plaque and snow globe with Frosty in beachwear made me want to run and hide. How could anyone celebrate Christmas in the midst of the commercialized chaos? God reminded me that in the middle of the confusion are people; grieving, worried, and desperate ones seeking relief. What better time than Advent to share with them what the season represents – hope, peace, joy, and love? ...

Reflections on Surrender is an adult coloring book, filled with truth about control, ourselves, and God–messages that closely correlate with my new book, Control Girl . While you don’t have to work through the Bible study to enjoy the coloring book, we thought it might be nice to offer them as compliments to each other. God never intended you to carry the burden of trying to control everything. Though most of us would agree God is in control, we find ourselves living as if he needed a little assistance from us. Let us entice you to a different perspective. Inside these pages,...

Prepare yourself for the journey of a lifetime, because you are being positioned to encounter the presence of God in your personal quiet time. In the Old Testament before the Israelites crossed the Jordan River into their Promised Land, the Lord told Joshua to take 12 stones from the middle of the very waters that were separating them from their freedom. The people were to erect a memorial with these large boulders. The Lord explained to Joshua that these stones would cause people to ask what they were, and give opportunity to tell future generations how the God of Israel delivered them from slavery...
