“Church” has never been an easy topic for me to reconcile. Typically, it always comes back to two truths. God created the church, and I am commanded to be a part of it. Should the church be led by a single elder, or should a group of elders lead it? Titus 1:5-9 – This is

When a man is in the valley, knowing how to be there for him is hard. Only someone that has incredible restraint can help. The help is not what we think. The temptation to fix or comfort is so strong that it will make even the most loving person act in ways that push deeper
