by Thomas Cheevers on November 5th, 2025
“Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy.” – Romans 13:13When God created intimacy, He wasn’t inventing something shameful—He was revealing something sacred.

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
