From Condemnation to Reclamation
by Thomas Cheevers on October 8th, 2025
"For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing." – Romans 7:19We all know the haunting ache of failure — that moment when you say, “I did it again.” You promised God, and yourself, that this time would be different. But there you are, staring in the mirror of Scripture, seeing weakness reflected back. Shame whispers that you’ve gone too far. That you’...  Read More

The Great Opposition
by Thomas Cheevers on October 7th, 2025
"For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want." – Galatians 5:17The Christian life isn’t a playground — it’s a battleground.

Our culture insists these two often stand opposed: “If you love me, you’ll affirm me.” Or on the other side: “If you tell the truth, you can’t be gentle.” But ...  Read More

Love Dethrones Self
by Thomas Cheevers on October 2nd, 2025
"Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself no...  Read More
