It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by all the talk of New Year’s resolutions, words of the year, annual goal setting, and more as we turn another page on our calendar. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with that, but sometimes it brings a heaviness and guilt instead of motivation. It’s okay to just stay focused on doing the next thing.

Obedience to God's commandments leads to blessings, peace, and a deeper relationship with Him. Let’s talk about the challenges of obedience, the cost of disobedience, and the role prayer plays in our walk with the Lord. Join me to learn how to trust in God's timing and to cultivate a life of long obedience as you enter the new year.

Statistics and real life both agree that we as a global church are largely Biblically illiterate and growing more so by the year. We see a direct correlation between the lack of Biblical literacy and the rise of secular progressivism. Join me today as David Fiorazo and I talk about this concerning trend and what we can be doing about it.
