“Whatever Is Lovely”: Why It Is Important to Think About Beautiful Things

Carolyn Lacey | June 1st 2023

God has made a world full of beauty, and while it is true that parts of it have been spoiled by sin, there is so much beauty that remains if we will take the time to look for it.

It is easier to focus on the negative—what went wrong in our day, what someone said that was unkind, a difficult relationship; disappointments, discouragements and regrets.... continue reading

Even those from the most secure, loving homes suddenly feel shaken over the smallest issue.

How the Church Is a Hospital

Jen Oshman | May 11th 2023

It has been said, “The church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints.” I think the quote originates from a Dear Abby syndicated column.
