Leviti-who? Reading the Book of Leviticus
There it was again. I should have known it was coming. I’d done this before, after all. As I sat down to have my quiet time and flipped through to this day’s passage, it stared me in the face. The book of Leviticus. The first two chapters. My new devotional book was laid out to…

What Does “Serving God” Mean?
What does “serving God” mean? What does serving God look like? I grew up in an era when every young person I knew was encouraged to go into full-time Christian service. All of us. It was considered the most you could aspire to, the one field of work that really meant you’d given yourself to…

Believing in God for Big Things by Jaime Hampton Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. Psalm 145:3 (NIV) If you’re a beach person (or were when you were a kid, like me), you know how it works: you stand in the water, talking with other people…
