Over the past two weeks, I’ve had the joy of sitting down with many Christ-followers who grew up in Islam. Many came to know Jesus when moving to Canada, and some shared about finding Jesus while in the Muslim world ... Here’s what I learned from these friends about Ramadan and why Christ-followers should pray for our Muslim neighbours: ..."

“For dust you are, and to dust you will return.” (Genesis 3:19)

Last night’s Ash Wednesday service was such a meaningful reminder not only of our human mortality and need of a Saviour, but also of the hope we have because of Jesus!

As we enter into the season of Lent, we take time to remember our need for Jesus, focus our hearts on him, and discover the ways he is “making everything new!” (Revelation 21:5)

"My whole life, those words—”I’ll pray for you”—had meant nothing to me. I assumed people just said it as a polite condolence. But now, we had hundreds of messages. My buddy Dave and my new Christian friends were praying. Even people who didn’t go to church were praying ... I realized in this moment that these prayers were no longer just words."
