The God of Reconciliation
by Thomas Cheevers on October 31st, 2025
“All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation.” – 2 Corinthians 5:18Reconciliation is more than a relational repair—it’s the heartbeat of the gospel. From Genesis to Revelation, God’s story is one of relentless pursuit, of love bridging impossible divides. When humanity turned away, God moved closer. When we broke the covenant, He ful...  Read More

The Power of True Repentance
by Thomas Cheevers on October 30th, 2025
“Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” – James 5:16True repentance is more than regret—it’s a radical reorientation of the heart. It’s not simply feeling bad about what we’ve done; it’s recognizing who we’ve wounded and turning back toward the One who can restore. We live in a cultur...  Read More

The Danger of Buried Pain
by Thomas Cheevers on October 29th, 2025
“In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.” – Ephesians 4:26Buried pain doesn’t disappear—it festers.

“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” – Ephesians 4:32Love isn’t fragile—it’s forged. True biblical love is tested not in the easy moments, but in the painful ones where forgiveness becomes necessary. We often think of love as soft and sentimental, but in God’s kingdom, love is sacrificial and strong. Forgiveness is where love proves i...  Read More

Love That Points Back to the Cross
by Thomas Cheevers on October 25th, 2025
"This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters." – 1 John 3:16Every love story, no matter how beautiful, finds its truest meaning in one place — the cross. The cross redefines love, showing us that it’s not rooted in comfort, chemistry, or convenience, but in covenant sacrifice. Love doesn’t start in romanc...  Read More
