In a world that praises hustle and applauds achievement, it’s easy to bring that mindset into our relationship with God. We think we need to do more to be loved more. So we try to pray better, serve more faithfully, read our Bible perfectly... but when we fall short, shame creeps in and whispers, “You’re not doing enough.” “You’re not spiritual enough.” “You’re not enough.” That’s not the voice of your Shepherd. Jesus doesn’t measure your relationship by your performance. He treasures your prese

In our 30 years of work as therapists we’ve found that many Christians feel a lot of shame about their mental health. They’ve heard or internalized messages like: “Just have more faith and God will cure you!” “Anxiety is a sin.” “If you really loved God you wouldn’t be depressed.” But these messages are not helpful or healthy. Instead, they put a heavy load of shame on us, adding to the already heavy weight of our mental health challenges. God’s heart is never to shame us, especially when we’re

This will change how you think about prayer 👇 Most of us say we should pray more than we do. Why don’t we? Maybe we don’t appreciate how God designed prayer to work. The goal isn’t just to list off your requests to God in the morning and at church. It’s to integrate prayer into everything—our work, our conversations, our struggles, our joys. Wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, whoever you’re with, pray. Talk to God about it. Listen for his voice. Abide in his presence. Jesus modeled this b

You don’t have to convince God to love you. He’s not keeping score—tracking how often you’ve prayed, how strong your faith feels, or how many good things you’ve done lately. He already knows your weaknesses, your doubts, and the things you wish you could change about yourself. And still, He wants you. The real you. The tired you. The doubting you. The you who feels like you’re taking two steps forward and three steps back. Romans 5:8 says, “While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Befor

Rest is simply letting yourself be with God and discovering that he loves you—not because of what you accomplish for him, but because you are his. As you rest, joy and peace will bubble up within you and around you. Praise and prayer rise naturally. And the steadiness you find becomes an anchor you carry back into everyday life. So make space today to rest and be quiet in God’s presence. 🤍 You don’t have to do anything to be loved. Receive the grace of doing nothing. Stay with it long enough fo

Worry pulls us into a future God is already holding. Rest brings us back into the present, where God’s grace is enough for today. “So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.

A lot of us grew up thinking strong faith means keeping our emotions in check. We were told to “just trust God,” “think happy thoughts” or “don’t let your feelings lead you.” But ignoring your emotions doesn’t make them disappear. It just buries them deeper. And after a while, what’s buried starts to weigh on your heart. Jesus shows us another way. 👉 He brought his whole heart before the Father, and in doing so, showed us what true spiritual maturity looks like. You can do that too. You don’t h

Somewhere along the way, many of us started treating the Bible like a checklist. ✅ Read. ✅ Reflect. ✅ Apply. ✅ Obey. And while those things are important, if we’re not careful, we’ll turn our time reading Scripture into performance instead of relationship. The Bible isn’t primarily a book of rules. It’s a story of relentless love. It’s God’s voice whispering, “I see you. I choose you. I’ve made a way for you to be with Me.” We don’t read the Bible to earn God’s approval. We read it to remember w

Your emotions are not a threat to your faith, they’re a doorway to deeper connection to Jesus. The Bible doesn’t deny the reality of your emotions—it validates them. More than that, it shows us a God who meets us with empathy in the middle of them. Spiritual maturity does not mean numbing your emotions. It means noticing them, naming them, and inviting Jesus into them. This is the heartbeat of our new book, Deeply Loved. It will help you experience God’s empathy in the places you need it most an

Maybe you’ve felt it too… that little tug inside that says, “I want more than this.” More than rushing. More than noise. More than checking boxes and hoping it all feels meaningful. This time of year can feel like a lot. Christmas is supposed to be a season of joy and wonder, but it can quickly turn into a season of pressure, hurry, and trying to keep everyone else happy. Even when everything on your calendar and to-do list is good, it’s easy for your heart to drift into overwhelm or autopilot.

Friend, Jesus understands 🩵 Hebrews 4:15 reminds us that we have a Savior who empathizes with our weaknesses. He walked in human skin and understands every emotion we feel. He knows what it’s like to be tired and overwhelmed. He understands the ache of loneliness, the sting of rejection, the weight of grief. And because He’s felt it all, He has empathy for what you’re going through right now. That’s what we unpack in our new book Deeply Loved. It’s an invitation to receive Jesus’ empathy in the

Faith doesn’t always look like bold leaps. Sometimes it’s just showing up. Whispering a prayer. Choosing hope when fear feels louder. The miracle isn’t in how big your step is—it’s in whose hands you place it. And when your faith, however small, rests in God’s hands… mountains move! In Matthew 17:20 Jesus tells us, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” A mustard seed was one o

Sometimes we make prayer harder than it needs to be. It isn’t about persuading God to give us what we want or performing for him. It’s about abiding with him. It’s about noticing his nearness in the middle of ordinary moments and learning to align our hearts with his. Prayer opens our eyes to see Jesus in the details of our day, strengthens us to keep trusting when the answers don’t come right away, and reminds us that his love is more than enough. Of course, it’s good and important to bring you
