CHRISTIAN LIVING:
- Experiencing Happiness in Christ, Even Through Depression and Sorrow. In this recent interview he did on the topic of happiness, Randy Alcorn addresses how someone who is depressed can still move toward experiencing a deep happiness and joy in Christ.
- When Shame Haunts You. Heather Davis Nelson writes “We can therefore put to rest our guilt, and our shame, forever. Jesus took on our sin, giving us his robes of righteousness, and he bore the weight of our deepest shame—the longing for relationship with our Creator God.”
- Godly Compassion for Hurting People. John MacArthur writes “All the benevolence and tender mercies God bestows on us are given to us not because we deserve His favor. We don’t deserve it. But because of His love and because we belong to Christ by faith, we are the recipients of divine blessings that rightfully belong to Him.”
- 7 Ways to Deal with Doubt. Michael Patton writes “Doubt affects the lives of many believers. The reality is that no one’s faith is ever perfect in this life. That includes you. And if your faith is not perfect, then it can grow and become stronger today than it was yesterday.”
- The Great Gain of a Contented Heart. Scotty Smith prays “I realize that all I really need is Jesus, plus what you choose to give me.”
