Jesus did not spend a great deal of time discoursing
about the trinity or original sin or the incarnation,
which have preoccupied later Christians.
He went around doing good and being compassionate.

Verse of the day

What I say to you in the dark, tell in the light, and what you hear whispered, proclaim from the housetops.
- Matthew 10:27

Voice of the day

So step in your purpose, speak for your people, share all your secrets / Expose your emotions, you might not see, but there's people that need it / Never demand it, and if God can grant it, manifest it and receive it.
- Dave, “The Boy Who Played the Harp” (2025)

Prayer of the day

God of our foremothers and forefathers, let however we express our pivotal experiences be channels of truth that bring justice.

SCRIPTURE INSIGHT

Hebrews 11 has been referred to as the “Hall of Faith” because everyone listed in the chapter is presented as a model of faith. This makes sense because verse 6 says, “Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” Because our human effort to do good will always fall short of God’s standard (Ephesians 2:8-9), we’re dependent upon Him by faith. By faith we trust God now, and one day we’ll be in His eternal presence (John 3:16).
