We’ve all heard the question—sometimes whispered in fear, sometimes shouted in debate: “What happens to those who don’t believe?” It’s not a question to dismiss lightly. Behind it are real hearts, real fears, and real people we love. And for those of us who trust in a God of...
There are places not marked on any map—spaces carved by silence, shaped by longing, and touched by something holy. These are the still places where God waits. God waits in the stillness of sleepless nights when we whisper questions into the dark. He waits in the silence between heartbeats,...
Fear has a way of creeping in when control slips through our fingers. It doesn’t always arrive as a scream—sometimes, it comes softly, like a breath caught in the throat or a silence too heavy to bear. We don’t always call it fear. Sometimes we call it responsibility, concern,...
