Weeks one and two of Advent cover Hope and Love. This time of year reminds us of the Hope that we have in Christ and the Love of God that we should share with those around us. There are many in our world who are hurting and who are lost without Christ. If you know Christ as your Savior, then you have a gift that is meant to be shared. Allow Advent to challenge you to give out Hope and Love this Christmas season.

I have been struggling with a lot of apathy towards the upcoming general election, as I mentioned in this article and the first one in this series. It’s exhausting to hear the constant bickering from each side, calling each other petty names as if they are still in elementary school. However, I’ve been praying for the Lord to help me have a better attitude and to renew a sense of duty in my heart. I don’t take for granted that we live in the greatest country of all time. So, this November, I’m going to do my part and cast my vote based on the guidance of God.

It was one of the most exciting moments in the lives of the children of Israel in Exodus 35. It was time to build a place for God's presence to dwell with them and a place for them to focus their worship. The Bible says their hearts were stirred. I pray that God will once again stir the hearts of His people and help us to be united once again for the work of the Kingdom. Join me on this episode and be encouraged!

In terms of sheer size, what's the biggest miracle that you can think of in Scripture? Creation has to be the biggest, again in terms of size. But what about the second biggest, in your opinion? Today, let's look at what happened in Joshua's life and the amazing miracle of the Sun standing still!
