With increasing food and gas prices making the basics take a bigger bite out of our budgets, it’s hard not to worry, but that’s exactly what God commands. So how do we lower our stress and increase our faith? In the gospel of Luke, Jesus gives his disciples 2 wrongs and 1 right thing to…
Wavering when we should hold steady isn’t a good look. But clinging to nonsensical views looks bad too. So, how do we make wise decisions and then stand firm? The book of James opens with 2 do’s and 2 don’ts for anyone who needs wisdom. Today’s scripture has a 4-step formula that can even make…
