Stories of biblical spices and their relevance to the power of confession, faith, and focus.

Because…Monsters Are Real

When Christ returns, sin, death, and Satan (i.e. our “monsters”) will be vanquished. And only a resurrected, living Jesus can return. God wins.

Because…Life is Beautiful

Life is a beautiful gift from God. And Jesus’ promise of an abundant life isn’t just for now. It’s forever–an eternal life where the beauty never ends.

Because…Sometimes It Storms

There are times in life when we are filled with worry and doubt. The risen Jesus can calm our anxiety (and the storm).

Because…Someone Will Listen

Because of the Resurrection, Jesus is risen and alive. We may not see him physically, but we can talk to him 24/7–and he always listens.

Because…Life is Hard

A dead Jesus is the same as no Jesus. But there is a comfort and a peace that surpasses understanding in the Risen Jesus.

Because…We Want Guarantees

Why should we care about the Resurrection? Because we want guarantees, and the Resurrection is the guarantee we can trust in the promises of God.
