As sons and daughters of God, we have a duty to stand up and do something. It’s not time to be passive. It’s time to actively live out of our relationship with our loving Father. Nowadays, it’s popular to be caught in passive Christianity. We go to church and even invite our friends to church, but when it comes to…
For the past couple of months, I got caught up in following his way. I began climbing the ladder of work-based religion that tells us, “read one more verse and God will love you, sing another worship song and you will get there, do this and maybe God will give you the time of day.” I got exhausted. Fast. It wasn’t until I heard God say a phrase to me that woke me up to the second captain’s way. Jesus’ way. I pray God would use this phrase and my story, to open your eyes to how Jesus is talking to you. The way He is drawing you into the deep waters of His love.
Before beginning this post, I want to introduce myself. My name is Davia. My name is the feminine version of David, meaning ‘beloved of God’ . . . In the middle of my junior year, I started to wonder if there was a way I could use my gifts to glorify God and if so, how? I’m here today to tell you that you are creative as well.

Our world is changing. Masses of people are picking up their lives and moving into cities. The cities of the world are growing at a rate of 1.6 million a week. When we think of cities, we could think of dirty streets, crowds of people, endless sin, and little to no awareness of God’s presence. Yet, God’s heart is for the cities worldwide. God is using this shift into cities as a way to bring revival, passion, and unity to His children. Will we join Him in what He is doing in cities?
Picture this, you are you, waking up in the morning excited to start your day! You find yourself playing that “Good Morning Sunshine” playlist and there’s an extra spring in your step. But how often do we really wake up like this? In reality we sit on our phones for an hour and stumble out of bed playing our 10 years of heartache playlist unable to form actual words until we have our coffee. Ouch, I’m talking to myself but I know you can relate. We should be doing things in our daily life that fill our souls to the brim. Things that make us excited to wake up in the morning.
We too easily doubt God’s presence and nearness. When feelings and experiences fade, what are we left with? Do we still believe God is closer than ever or do we doubt He cares for us? So many times we seek out spiritual encounters, but when those disappear we question if God is still with us. He’s asking us to go…
The Divide of Sacred & Secular There’s been a trend in the last few decades of dividing the sacred and secular. Christians tend to separate things like music, work, or art apart from church, worship, or prayer. If it doesn’t directly involve God it isn’t sacred, but rather it’s just secular or worldly. However, what if we’ve had it wrong…
