Transfigurations: Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ...

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. -Ephesians 1:3-6

The life of holiness is the life of faith in which the believer, with a deepening knowledge of his own sin and helplessness apart from Christ, increasingly casts himself upon the Lord, and seeks the power of the Spirit and the wisdom and comfort of the Bible to battle against the world, the flesh, and the devil. -Edmund P. Clowney

America Reads the Bible: How a Crisis Opened my Eyes to a Nation on Fire for God Neither the secular news nor the pollsters are going to tell you revival has begun. Yet we know we are witnessing amazing things like the organic 2023 Asbury revival, college campus awakenings led by UniteUS, and the largest single-day baptism in U.S. history — with over 7,750 people baptized in the Pacific Ocean at Huntington Beach, California last year. And so many more stories — like unexpected joy and peace being transmitted around the world from a church in Stillwater, Oklahoma. America is spiritually on fire.

So let’s join President Trump with continuous worship and keep the fire burning. Whether it’s live Bible readings on YouTube, sharing testimonies on TikTok, or organizing a flash mob prayer group, let’s build the momentum for the revival we already know is happening.

Time To Expose Evil...Believers are called to expose lies and darkness with truth and light While all Christians may not be called to particular public ministries, such as being involved in the culture wars and exposing and calling out various evils and dangers, all believers should be living such a life that the light of Christ shines through.

If so, then just like with Christ himself, some people will be drawn to that light, while some other folks will be repelled by it and react angrily against it. Either way, the real deal Christian will be provoking some sort of reaction. The light always exposes the darkness.

Why More Americans Are Falling Back in Love With Local Farmers Markets That is one reason farmers markets have become more than a niche weekend pastime. For many Americans, they now represent a different way of thinking about food, money, health, and even neighborhood life. They are not just places to buy peaches, herbs, eggs, bread, flowers, or honey. They are places where people reconnect with the idea that what we eat actually comes from somewhere, and from someone.
