Suffering does not indicate a lack of faith in God as healer, because God sometimes permits suffering for His own good purposes.
What does the peace of Christ mean? Joni shares how, like freed me celebrant the victory of war, we should joyously celebrate the triumph of Jesus on the cross.
No one likes going through trials, but often times, it's through hardships that we develop the character of Christ. It's what Jesus explained in the Beatitudes, when he connected blessings with suffering.
Do you know the first hymn that was ever written? Joni tells the story behind the English hymn writer, Thomas Ken.
When it comes to listening to God’s voice, we’re sometimes not as obedient as our smart home devices. But Jesus calls us to listen and obey, just as sheep follow their shepherd.
Caring for people who are sick and disabled reveals our compassion, the truth of our witness, and our testimony of Christ.
Realizing we are spiritually destitute, we depend on Jesus, who gives us grace for today and the promise of heaven tomorrow.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed by your troubles? Joni shares a poem by Elizabeth Elliot that reminds us to take it one day at a time, trusting that God will show you the steps to move forward.
Is it right to hasten death in the face of prolonged suffering? Joni speaks on the topic of physician assisted suicide.
God hears us when we pray and He assures us that we can trust Him to provide grace and help in times of need.
We want and pray for things we think are good, but God's idea of "good" may be very different from ours.
Asking God for deeper knowledge of Him is risky because it often requires enrolling in His school of suffering. But it is so worth it!
Maria, a little girl in El Salvador, receives a wheelchair and the love of Christ through Wheels for the World.
Do you ever find yourself clinging to a happy moment or thought? While it's good to thank God for past blessings, we also need to learn to look ahead and receive future blessings with open arms.
Because of her quadriplegia, Joni cannot take communion by herself; she always needs help. And it's a reminder that communion with Jesus includes communion with our brothers and sisters in Christ.
