We are being robbed. Jesus says that He has come that we may have life, and have it to the full. Yet our sinful nature tempts us to walk apart from God and His ways. As a result, we take a path that promises everything but delivers only destruction. Jesus is our Good Shepherd, and it is time to trust His leading in our lives.

The world tells us that we can be king of our own lives doing whatever is right in our own eyes. The Bible makes it clear that this is actually a life serving sin, which leads to death. We need King Jesus. It is in following Him that we find real freedom and life.

"After that whole generation had been gathered to their ancestors, another generation grew up who knew neither the Lord nor what he had done for Israel" (Judges 2:10). Are we watching the rise of a Judges generation? If so, what are we, as Christians, to do?

Are you ready for a life of freedom? It is one that offers us freedom from sin, death, and hell in exchange for a loving relationship with God as His adopted children. It is freedom to live by the truth, saying goodbye to the pressures of the world and hello to the adventure God created you for. It is a life of forgiveness and fearlessness. It is the true life available to you through Jesus.

The world is ripe for conspiracy theories as distrust for authority builds and people turn away from God. So, it is important that we know how to handle them and look to what the Bible teaches us. As Jesus warns, there will be many deceptions in the end times, so we need to be discerning and stay focused doing the work of God.

Are you feeling discouraged and isolated as you try to live out your Christian faith and raise your kids to follow Jesus? Have hardships and persecution worn you down? We have good news to remind you. As a Christian, you never lose. In fact, Jesus calls you blessed.

There seems to be a growing normalization of things like New Age spirituality, charms and crystals, Tarot card readings, psychics, neo-paganism, and witchcraft. As more young people identify as "nones," it invites the opportunity for them to seek after such things. Yet the Bible is clear that we should have nothing to do with these fruitless deeds of darkness but rather expose them. We are to be light in the world, sharing the truth of God's Word.

A new survey reveals that even Christians do not have a solid understanding of what the Bible teaches. This truth decay cascades down to our society and the result is a nation that does whatever is right in its own eyes. As Christian parents, we need to read the entire Bible. It impacts our entire lives and how we disciple our children.
