Renting vs. Homeownership: What You Need to Know

First-time homebuyers often face common misunderstandings around home ownership, including the cost of getting into a home, rising rent, and the fear of waiting too long. It's essential to take a clear-eyed look at the true costs of moving from renting into home ownership and to approach the transition with wisdom and patience. A home should fit one's current season of life and support responsibilities and priorities, not stretch finances or limit the ability to live and give faithfully. [... more]

Origins

The doctrine of God as Creator is under attack, and the media and schools want people to believe a false narrative about the origin of life. The Bible teaches that God created everything, and the evidence of DNA supports the idea of a designer. Many evolutionists are admitting that their theory involves a measure of faith, and the relentless truth remains that man searches for his origin. The world wants an explanation of the beginning, but science will never be able to discover it. The Bible provides the objective foundation for our faith and gives us insight into the matter of origins, revealing the special place of mankind and God's creation. [... more]

Generosity Through the Ages

Generosity is a reflection of a person's heart, and giving is not just about money, but about reflecting the heart of the giver. The Bible paints a rich picture of generosity, one that reaches far beyond money, and true giving flows from the heart. Christians are called to be good stewards of God's resources, and generosity is a key aspect of this stewardship. By giving wisely and investing in a way that aligns with their Christian values, individuals can make a positive impact on the world and bring glory to God. [... more]

A Theology of Investing with Tim Macready

Investing is not just about returns, but about reflecting what we truly value. A theology of investing brings our heart, head, and hands together to reframe investing as an act of stewardship, love, and spiritual formation, not just the physical act of putting money into a company or instrument. By understanding God's creation mandate and our role as co-creators, we can use investments to love our neighbor and expand God's blessings through creation, while also being mindful of the temptations of wealth and the importance of trusting in God rather than money.

Building Financial Stability One Step at a Time

Living on less than you earn is the bedrock of financial wisdom, and it starts with a plan, a budget that tells your money where to go instead of wondering where it went. Budgeting helps you live within your means, allowing you to have a margin, but investing enables you to take that margin and grow what God has entrusted to you. God honors steady and wise investing, and financial freedom doesn't mean independence from God, but rather living as a wise and faithful steward, seeing God as your ultimate treasure and money as a tool to accomplish God's purposes.

Redeeming Our Financial Failures

God's kindness leads us to repentance, and our financial lives are no exception.

Can an Intellectual Believe in God?

The Bible teaches that intellectual difficulties are not the primary reason for unbelief, but rather moral difficulties. The heavens declare God's glory, and the Bible is the perfect, converting Word of God. The Holy Spirit convicts, cleanses, and controls believers, leading to a personal relationship with God. An intellectual can believe in God, and many have throughout history. [... more]

Dealing with Doubts - Why I Believe in Creation, Part 2

The debate between creation and evolution is a complex one, with many believing that science and faith are incompatible. However, what if science actually supports faith? The latest findings suggest that the complexity of cells and DNA challenge the core of classic evolutionary thought, and that the Big Bang Theory implies a moment of creation. The implications of this are profound, with our worldview and values fundamentally tied to our beliefs about the origin of life. [... more]
