Today, we pause to remember and honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation.

Their sacrifice reminds us that freedom is never free. We are grateful for their courage, their service, and the families who carry the weight of their loss.

As churches across the Baptist Bible Fellowship International, may we be people who remember with gratitude, pray with sincerity, and live faithfully in the freedom we have been given.

“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.” John 15:13

Let me be clear, Easter Sunday is not a performance. We are not putting on a show. We are proclaiming a risen Savior. But the principle still applies....

When Your View Doesn’t Match Your Vision

When your view doesn’t match your vision. I heard that statement in a sermon recently and immediately wrote it down. It puts language to something every leader and every believer eventually feels. There are seasons when what you see does not line up with what you believe God has shown you. Your view is what is right in front of you. Your vision is what God has placed in your heart. And the two do not always match....
