When the Bible Meets Disability

October 28, 2022February 1, 2023 Megan Bean

A clock with a decorative wooden frame hangs on a wall. It reads 8:07. Natural light shines on it from the left, but the room also seems to be lit with soft artificial light.

September 16, 2022February 1, 2023 Megan Bean

Faith That Works

June 30, 2020June 2, 2022 Megan Bean

The Christian life is so much more than that one decision followed by a waiting game until eternity gets here. Faith is so much more an idea, a ticket we tote around until we get to Heaven’s gate and present it for admittance.
