“A good coach can change a game. A great coach can change a life.” John Wooden The words of legendary UCLA basketball coach John Wooden are as true today as when he first spoke them. Modern coaches have difficult jobs and dual roles. They are not only expected to get results on the scoreboard, but they must simultaneously recognize the outsized role they have in shaping the lives of those they lead. And they must do all of this while navigating a complex and changing landscape. GAME TIME provides a light along that leadership journey. Each devotional entry features wisdom from some of ...

Sorrow and suffering. Why would anyone write about such a thing or, worse, spend a month reading and doing the heavy spiritual work of meditating and praying through a devotional dealing with the most morbid machinations of the soul? In 2004, I moved to South Africa and came face to face with extreme poverty and the ravaging plague of AIDS. I held the hands of the starving and the dying. I cried out. Nothing changed. Years later, the same children were still hungry despite my best efforts. AIDS came to infect our closest friends. We fought. We often lost. The sorrow never released its grip....

"Biblical womanhood" is the idea that the Bible teaches God-ordained male leadership and female submission in the home and subordination in the church. Some say this hierarchy of authority is sufficiently evidenced by examples of male leadership (and lack of female leadership) in the Bible: the first human was male, Israel's official priests were male, most authors of Scripture were male, Jesus was male and chose twelve male Apostles. God is addressed as Father. Wives are commanded to submit to their husbands.

For thousands of years, the prophet Moses was regarded as the sole author of the first five books of the Bible, known as the Pentateuch. According to tradition, Moses was divinely directed to write down foundational events in the history of the world: the creation of humans, the worldwide flood, the laws as they were handed down at Mt. Sinai, and the cycle of Israel’s enslavement and liberation from Egypt. However, these stories—and their frequent discrepancies—provoke questions.

A Relevant Study of the Book of James. Unlock the Secrets to Living a Victorious Christian Life... the Way God Intended James was one of Jesus’ brothers and was very familiar with His teachings.

It is filled with valuable information that teaches us how to live and conduct ourselves in this world—and with others. It is my ...

As was the case for millions of other people, I first stumbled over Psalm 40 thanks to U2, the legendary rock and roll band. As the closing track on U2’s 1983 album entitled War, “40” capped a work marked by loss and lament with a hopeful note of longing. And while “40” may have closed an album (and many incredible concerts after that), the song was actually a profound opening as well. For so many, “40” was an invitation to the Christian Scriptures, a reintroduction to what were previously seen as the antiquated and staid pages of the Bible. With U2 providing a new melody by ...
