Finding God In The Change: Fight Fear, Failure and Fatigue
Change creates chaos. If you're anything like me, you'd prefer control over chaos. In the digital age we live in, our pace is often faster than our capacity.

Let’s learn together how to find God in the change.
Fighting Words: 7 Days of Speaking Truth Into the Darkness by Ellie Holcomb
The devotions in this reading plan are based on what I call my “fighting words”: the promises of God that I have clung to over the years. I hope that these verses will become your fighting words too, and that we’ll all start walking right up to the darkness in our own hearts and in the weary world around us to speak God’s love and light and truth.
Living the Surrendered Life
The word surrender doesn’t have very positive connotations in our society. It tends to be seen as a weakness. However, surrendering actually takes more strength than you can even imagine. We don't need to carry shame, worry, ingratitude or fear around on our backs. We need to “give it up completely” as one of the definitions of surrender suggests. I believe that when we surrender our lives to the Lordship of Christ we will find the abundant life promised us in John 10:10. After all, God gives His best to those who leave the choice to Him.
Overcoming Fear of Death

Faith Over Fear
We were not created to live in fear. God wants us to live with boldness, confidence, peace, and impact, and He's given us tools in Scripture to help us anchor ourselves deeper into faith-bolstering truth.

Before the Next Step
Life is full of “next steps”: new school years, new jobs, and new life stages. As we anticipate the upcoming change, we can often feel unsure and fearful. In Exodus, we learn how Moses prepared for his future as the leader of the Israelites. His story teaches us to seek God in our preparation and to find assurance in his constant presence.
