January 28, 2025July 21, 2025 Megan Bean

God wants to be found. So where do we look for Him when He seems to elude us?

When Good Things End

April 28, 2022September 27, 2024 Megan Bean

Trusting Godโ€™s purposes is hard enough when bad things invade our lives. But what about when good things leave? When instead of facing an enemy, we face simply...emptiness?

A brilliant sunrise fills the sky over the dark treetops of a forest. Clouds ranging from gold to orange to dark pink and purple spread across a pale blue sky. The horizon where the sun is about to come up is almost white.

Redeemed in Full

October 27, 2021September 27, 2024 Megan Bean

Have you ever questioned whether you're redeemable? Have you nourished hope for an abundant, meaningful life, only to see it decimated by your own sin or failure? Have you looked at the remains and felt sure that, even if something new were to sprout, nothing could ever bloom?

Looking to the Son

October 27, 2020September 27, 2024 Megan Bean

This is more than positive thinking. It's even more than counting our blessings. It isn't just admiring good things; itโ€™s looking through the goodness to its Source. And it's committing to seeking that Source with our entire selves, all our lives, no matter what we go through.

Singing With the Sea

June 9, 2018October 31, 2024 Megan Bean

Awe doesnโ€™t answer all our questions, or demand answers. It simply beholds, and marvels, and rejoices in what and Whom it sees. It invites us to join the rest of the universe in praising and celebrating our Creator.

Learning From the Flowers

March 3, 2018October 31, 2024 Megan Bean

The growth, dormancy, and regrowth of these beautiful plants remind me of three key aspects of the Christian faith.
