The Comfort of a Burden Shared

One of the most emotional moments in Jesus’s life was after the death of His good friend Lazarus. Days after His friend passed, Jesus arrived at the home Lazarus shared with his two sisters, also good friends of Jesus. Martha was angry, and she let Him know it.

Have you ever been mad at Jesus and told Him about it? What happened? How did He respond? Your feelings aren’t something to be ashamed of. Jesus empathizes with us about our emotions. He enters in with us!

Change A Prisoner's Life Forever

Hebrews 13:3 calls us to “remember those in prison.”

We can’t all minister in prisons, but there is an amazing opportunity to reach men and women with what they need most: God’s Word! There is nothing short of a revival happening behind prison walls! And Bibles are needed desperately in America’s prisons.

Help Prison Fellowship send Bibles and life-changing Christian content to prisoners.

Help Me Wait

We often want to fill heavy silence with advice, a well-intentioned story, or even Scripture. But just be still. Wait. Listen. 

This article explores the concept of waiting and its significance in the Christian faith. It discusses how waiting is often viewed as a difficult and uncomfortable experience, but it can also be a time of growth and transformation. 

Don't Merely Read the Bible- Engage With the Bible!

It is important to actively engage with scripture rather than just reading it. There are many ways to interact with the Bible deeply, such as through meditation, prayer, and application to daily life. 

By engaging with the Bible in a meaningful way, readers can deepen their relationship with God and experience personal growth and spiritual development.
