When standing in line, or when the commercial comes on, or when a moment of boredom comes, fast and pray instead of reaching for the screen. Be reminded that the world is not an oyster to be shucked, but a place where the gifts of redemption are already open.

As we prepare to begin this new year, it is helpful to remember three painfully honest truths, one of which is "You are not enough."

As we close out an old year, Saint Silvester can remind us God is the Lord of history and He has used and is using even people whose lives sink largely or totally into obscurity to keep the confession of our faith in Jesus Christ alive.

This story of despair met with the hope of the gospel is rightly told by many during the holiday season.
12/24/20
We’ve hung on every whisper of hope that this way of life would end and a new one would rise to take its place.
