Is it okay for Christians to doubt? When we don't get answers or see God's guiding hand, it's hard to keep praying or walking forward in faith. Difficult times often cloud our perspective. Many Christians confuse doubt with unbelief and are afraid to admit those fears, but God is not threatened by our questions, and doubt does not negate our faith. Our doubts express a yearning to be sure of what-and who-we trust. When our questions are answered by trust, faith is fed and our doubts transform into deeper belief that pushes us toward a decision. 1. When we address doubt head-on our...

Table Mentoring: A Simple Guide to Coming Alongside will help you begin sharing with another believer what God continues to teach you. We all know someone older or younger than ourselves, and God wants us mentoring and being mentored at any age. We teach another what we've learned at the feet of Jesus so that they grow up in Jesus. That’s the goal. Not only for fun—though it often is; not only to make a new friend—which usually happens. Mentoring, at a table or not, needs to be part of every believer’s life. We know God so that we can help another to know God....

There is a time for everything, and everything on earth has its special season. (Ecclesiastes 3:1) We have favorite seasons of nature, but what about spiritual seasons? You might have a favorite spiritual season, but you cannot live in it every moment of your life. You can choose to sit and pout about it, or you can use the time given to you, learning the lessons and growing the way God purposes. Every season combines with other seasons to complete a person’s life and purpose on earth. Growth is only possible because of the combination of seasons. We think we can handle our experiences—past,...

The title of this study starts off with the word “cultivate” as does each of the chapter titles. “Cultivate” is a word used a lot in farming or agriculture and it means to prepare the land or the ground for use. It means to loosen or break up the soil. It further means to improve by labor, care or study. The heart is that ground that initially needs to be prepared by God to receive the seed of His Word. https://www.amazon.com/Cultivate-Heart-Vera-Leray-Warner/dp/0741458675/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1493132900&sr=8-1&keywords=Cultivate+My+Heart...
