Giving Our All
In recent years, there has been a rise in the popularity of random acts of kindness. It may be an act of kindness for a stranger, such as paying for the person behind you in a queue or paying for coffees in advance so those who are homeless can have a hot drink. I...
Faith in the Face of Death
In January 2021, Forbes Magazine published a sobering article titled “One in Eight Christians Worldwide Live in Countries Where They May Face Persecution.” Over 340 million believers in Jesus remain faithful to Jesus in countries where they endure personal attacks and...
Announcing Our Next Study!
Our lives are a series of choices. We are constantly making choices, both good and bad, and all of our choices have consequences and outcomes. It can be overwhelming to question our choices or wonder if we are doing the right thing. “Therefore, if you have been...
Fully Surrendered
Mary was just a girl. She wasn’t highly educated. She wasn’t wealthy. She wasn’t perfect. Mary was in many ways ordinary, except in one: she loved God greatly. And of all the young girls through all the ages, God chose Mary to be the mother of Jesus. What an...
Believing at the Well
When I was in seminary, I worked in a missions office. One of the perks of the job was getting to travel internationally and see what our missionaries were doing in their communities. On one trip, I was in a rural community where the local missionaries and pastors...
The Dream of Your Heart
Maybe this won’t resonate with everyone, but have you ever watched someone else walking in the same dreams you’ve had for your life? Perhaps it’s a dream or prayer you’ve long held on to, and over time, it begins to feel more and more impossible and out of reach. But...
Asking for the Impossible
“For this boy I prayed, and the Lᴏʀᴅ has given me the request that I asked of him. So I also dedicate him to the Lᴏʀᴅ. For all the days of his life he is dedicated to the Lᴏʀᴅ.” Then he bowed down there in worship to the Lᴏʀᴅ.” – 1 Samuel 1:27–28 I love Hannah. Her...
Faith for Healing
“He said to her, ‘Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your disease.’” – Mark 5:34 Desperation. Last resort. Despair. What makes you turn to Jesus? Time and time again in the Gospels we read of people who approached Jesus with a...
A Harlot and a Heroine
Today’s scriptures share the story of Rahab. Identified as a prostitute, she seems like an unlikely hero or female role model. Joshua chapter 2 recounts how two males spies were sent into Jericho to scout out the land before the Israelites crossed the Jordan River to...
Nothing Is Impossible
One of my favorite parts about the story of Elizabeth is the way loving female friendship is featured. Elizabeth and Mary were relatives who were chosen by God for incredible tasks, and they praise God together while they honor and support one another with humility...
Always Remembered by God
So when Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, “Woman, look, here is your son!” He then said to his disciple, “Look, here is your mother!” From that very time the disciple took her into his own home. – John 19:26–27...
One in Christ
When we go on holiday, we usually go to church wherever we are visiting. I love meeting with God’s people in various places because it helps me feel more connected to the global church. One of my earliest experiences of meeting believers from all over the world was...
Unchanging Love
My name is Sarah, and I serve Romanian women worldwide by translating Love God Greatly Bible studies. I had the privilege to grow up in a Christian family and saw my parents practice their faith. My sister had some major health problems when I was young, and I started...
Women Are Needed
Adam lived in the Garden of Eden, a literal paradise on earth. It was perfect in every sense. Adam and God had a great and close relationship and yet… Even in the midst of a world without the stain of sin, God saw Adam and still wanted more for him. “The Lᴏʀᴅ God...
Introduction
Life can feel hard. If we are honest, we’ve probably all looked at our lives and wondered, Is this really what God has planned for me? Am I really in His will? If so, why is my life so difficult? I thought once I became a Christian my life would be struggle-free. Why...

A Life of Praise
Every day I will praise you. I will praise your name continually. The Lᴏʀᴅ is great and certainly worthy of praise. No one can fathom his greatness. –Psalm 145:2–3 I remember one of the hardest times in my life. It felt like I would never hope again and I was...
Grateful Hearts
Sometimes kids are the best teachers. An innocent bedtime prayer will go something like, “Thank you for Coco (our dog), and for space to run, and legs, and shoes, and sunshine, and that ladybug I found on the leaf, and for the leaf, and all the animals, and . . .”...
Turning Lament into Dancing
2021 was the hardest year of my life. It was a time when I experienced loss in many ways and felt the stinging pain of loneliness. The number one used phrase written in all my journals was this: I can’t tell anyone. I am alone. No one knew I was hurting because,...
This I Know
"Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so..." My earliest memory as a child at Sunday school is being taught this lovely, simple little song. Simple and yet profound. Foundational, unshakeable, unchanging truth that I continue to need to be reminded of,...

Hope Unseen
“In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how we should pray, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with inexpressible groanings.” –Romans 8:26 The most significant moments of growth in my walk with God have come from the deepest...
Announcing Our Next Study!
“Why does my life feel so hard right now? Why can’t anything be easy for me? I thought once I became a Christian, all my troubles would go away.” “Even though I’m following Jesus, why is my life still full of so much pain and uncertainty?” Many of us...
