But our trials need not be spiritually fatal. They need not take us from our covenants or from the household of God.

This isn't missionary work. This is missionary fun.

As we are spiritually awake and alert we see His hand across the world and we see His hand in our own personal lives.

Like the intense fire that transforms iron into steel, as we remain faithful during the fiery trial of our faith, we are spiritually refined and strengthened.

To mothers who are raising their children without a father in the home, I promise you that as you speak of Jesus Christ, you will feel the power of heaven blessing you.

Families are the treasure of heaven.

Our journey of discipleship is not a dash around the track, nor is it fully comparable to a lengthy marathon. In truth, it is a lifelong migration toward a more celestial world.
