When it's hard and you are doubtful, give more.

I sometimes struggle with how to properly respond to God’s magnitude in a world bent on ignoring or merely tolerating Him. But know this: God will not be tolerated. He instructs us to worship and fear Him.

Why is it that we believe God's promises of blessing but not his promises of punishment?

I was raised Christian after age 5, but I didn't really understand it until high school. A friend of mine invited me to his youth group. There I heard the gospel, understood it, and accepted it.

You find that the things you let go of while following Jesus were the things that were going to destroy you in the end.

My only prayer for my time with you is, "God I just want these men and women to long for you."

The disciples obey because that's what people do when someone rises from the dead and gives instructions.
