  1. From Addiction to Redemption: A Couple's Story of Salvation

    From Addiction to Redemption: A Couple's Story of Salvation

    "I used to say to my mom that some vessels are made for honorable use and some for dishonorable use. Maybe I’m just meant to go to Hell." - Bryce De La Rosa, prior to salvation. Once known by his prison number, Bryce went from attending youth group to attending state-mandated rehab. Little did he know, the Lord was at work, drawing the rebellious sinner to himself.  Meanwhile, his future wife found herself on the same trajectory. Addiction, identity theft, computer fraud and a baby on the way, Genevieve has no thoughts about the God who made her. Join this special episode where we chat with a couple about their beautiful redemption story, a story that points to a loving, gracious Savior, who offered them mercy, instead of the justice they deserved. Their entire testimony can be found on our website under Stories of Grace.  ________________________ When this is the day you think someone you love is too far gone, keep praying. Keep inviting them to church. That's your job. The Lord does the saving. Remember, where there is breath, there is hope. ________________________ Resources: Visit our shop for super one-of-a-kind designs that promote gospel centered conversations.

    It's Not Fair | Hobby Lobby Signs

    Taking scripture out of context is exactly what the world wants. How many times have we quoted a verse  - trying to encourage ourselves or someone else - only to use it incorrectly? In this new series, Hobby Lobby Signs, we’ll take a closer look at the scriptures most commonly taken out of context - and learn what they really mean. ________________________ When this is the day you feel the urge to hang scripture on your wall or share a verse on social media, make sure it’s not taken out of context. If there’s any doubt, choose a different one. ________________________ Resources: Pilgrims Progress by John Bunyan in Modern Day English Stories of Grace - Beautiful stories of God's redemption, hope, and salvation.

  4. He is | Attributes of God

    He is | Attributes of God

    We must rehearse the character of God in our minds constantly. We must think on his attributes. That is the good, holy, excellent things we should have our minds on. But it reeeeeeally helps if you know the ACTUAL meaning of these attributes. Having that deeper understanding, will give you such a deeper comfort. ________________________ When this is the day  you feel hopeless and discouraged, you must remember that God is powerful. Perhaps you’re feeling discouraged about your own sin, or the sin of your husband or children, or you’re watching loved ones reject the Lord or act in foolish ways. You must turn your eyes to Christ and think on Him. He is all powerful, and that should give us great comfort. ________________________ Resources: Systematic Theology by Louis Berkof Hoopla - digital library Visit our shop for super one-of-a-kind designs that promote gospel centered conversations.

  5. Lullabies and broken cries | Infertility

    Lullabies and broken cries | Infertility

    Infertility is one of life’s greatest trials, and brings great sorrow to those who walk that road. When we remember that God is perfectly sovereign over all things, we can find peace in blaming God - but not in a negative way. The peace comes from acknowledging that God is God, and we are not, and we can rest in the fact that he is sovereign, he’s in control, and he is good and faithful. So that must be enough. That IS enough. ________________________ When this is the day you question WHY you haven’t been able to conceive or carry a pregnancy to term, when this is the day you want to give up praying, when this is the day you feel unseen and feel that your prayers are unanswered - look away from your grief, look away from your sorrow. Look towards the God of the Universe who loves you and DOES have a good purpose for you. Rehearse Isaiah 55:8-9 in your mind, to remember how small you are and how big God is, yet he numbers your every hair. Isaiah 55:8-9 For my thoughts are not your thoughts,     neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth,     so are my ways higher than your ways     and my thoughts than your thoughts. ________________________ Resources: Holiness for the Holidays by Bret Hastings: A look at the life of Hannah Until Death Do Us Part: Meet Monika Walker Visit our shop for super one-of-a-kind designs that promote gospel centered conversations.

    Eyes Locked, Brains Off | Screen Time for Children

    Wisdom is an attribute of God.  Because we want to cultivate wisdom in our homes, the Word of God must be central there. We strive to keep wisdom before our own eyes - but what about our children? Has the iPad or a kiddie show played babysitter in your home? The world works hard to make wisdom vanish from our sight and that of our children, replacing it with cheap entertainment. How do we teach, guide, and model for our children, that the true treasure we should be seeking, far outshines the little dopamine hits they get from screen time? ________________________ When this is the day  you long to model well, how to use technologies in a righteous manner, and you think the only possible solution is to throw away your phone and TV, video games, and ipad, don’t worry! You can keep them! It doesn’t have to be that extreme! The real solution still isn’t found there. It’s in exchanging the thrills we get from screen time, with thrills from the Lord.  ________________________ Resources: Thru the Bible with J.

    Bikinis, beer, and building up | Christian Liberty

    Freedom! But freedom for what? Freedom to bring glory to God and benefit others? Or freedom to do as you please, under the guise of Christian Liberty.  Galatians 5:13 says - For you were called to freedom, brothers; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. ________________________ When this is the day you wonder if you can or should do something under the name of Christian liberty, ask yourself this - is it building up? If it’s not, don’t do it. Christian liberty is proactive, not reactive. Our desire must be to build others up, instead of seeking our own fleshly desires, even when those desires aren’t sinful. ________________________ Resources: Temptation and Sin - The 6th Volume of "The Works of John Owen" Visit our shop for super one-of-a-kind designs that promote gospel centered conversations.

  8. Speeding Grannies | Forgiveness

    APR 7

    Speeding Grannies | Forgiveness

    To be unforgiving and a believer IS mutually exclusive. It’s not compatible. If you’re a believer, you must be a forgiver. As you have been forgiven, so must you forgive.  This isn’t a controversial opinion. This is pretty standard stuff that we think most believers agree with.  But when you examine your heart - is it true? Or.. do you have a heart of unforgiveness? Which is really, a heart of bitterness. Do you hold onto slights? Do you get offended and let that offense - whether real or perceived - shape your opinions of that person who offended you? Or how you interact with them - or perhaps how you go out of your way NOT to interact with them?  That's NOT actually being forgiving. ________________________ When this is the day you are tempted to bring up someone else's sin to them - sin that has already been forgiven and reconciled - remind yourself that the very act of bringing up the sin, is sinful in itself. In fact, when you see someone who has sinned against you, and you are tempted to think of that sin - you have to be prepared to fight a quick and vicious battle in your mind. Mortify the thought. Murder it. Or as we like to say, murdify! Not the person! The thoughts! The unforgiving thoughts! Be prepared with a battle plan. A literal scripture on hand to slay that beast of unforgiveness.  ________________________ Resources: Believer's Bible Commentary: Second Edition Mortification of Spin Podcast by Carl Trueman and Todd Pruitt Visit our shop for super one-of-a-kind designs that promote gospel centered conversations.
