One Verse Devotional

Teaching our children the Bible can seem overwhelming. What does it look like? When should we do it? Today’s One Verse actually lays out a simple strategy on how to teach the Bible. Whether you have kids or not, this is how we should interact with God’s Word.

If I asked you how to "fulfill the Law of Jesus" what would you say? Our One Verse today gives us the answer in only 4 short words.

What is Christianity? Getting plugged into, and reflecting, the Light and Love of Jesus.

Just a quick update to let all of you know that the One Verse Devotional podcast is back! Plus, I answer some questions about where I've been and where God has been leading me the past couple of months.

As Christians, we are called to love and serve others. But that is different than trying to please others and finding your worth in what others think of you. That is only a trap that will prevent you from serving God and discovering His best for your life in 2019.

Want 2019 to be a great year? Focus on these two key areas: Seek wise counsel and have discipline in your life. They may not sound flashy, but Proverbs 19:20 reminds us of their importance.

Let’s be very clear: If you follow Jesus, you cannot hate another one of God’s children. You can’t call yourself a Christian and hate your brother or sister.

There is a big difference between saying, “Lord, forgive me” and actually confessing and repenting of our failures.

Today’s One Verse says, “The Truth will set you free.” Jesus said He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. So, the more we know Jesus, the greater freedom we will experience.

Since God has been faithful in the past and has our best interest at heart, we can trust that He will be faithful in the future, as well.

God isn’t a grumpy old man, waiting to punish you. He is forgiving and good and filled with love.

Jesus came to proclaim good news and set the oppressed free. Jesus came to give us Hope!

This one truth will keep you from all sorts of temptation.

Our culture is obsessed with the negative and controversial. But God says to think about what is lovely, admirable, and praiseworthy.

It can be easy to dismiss, but we must remember that we are in the middle of a spiritual battle every day of our lives and we have an enemy who wants to destroy us. But God is stronger!

“You have done amazing things. You have always done what you said you would do; you have done what you planned long ago.” -Isaiah 25:1

On Thursday, you probably sat down with family or friends and shared why you are thankful. I think it’s easy to overlook our thankfulness for God. Let’s not put Him on the back burner this year. Give your thanks and your worship to God. He is truly worthy of our deepest thanks. Take a few minutes today and tell God “Thank you”

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Today, I’m thankful for you. I appreciate your support and allowing me to speak into your life. I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you!
