What I've come to love about Christianity — and about the book of Galatians in particular — is that God never asks us to check our intellect at the door. He invites us to wrestle with Him, to seek, to question, and to grow.
Galatians is not just another book of the Bible — it is a fiery, passionate defense of the gospel, written by a man who had everything to lose by preaching it. The Apostle Paul, with unshakable conviction, addresses some of the most fundamental questions of the Christian faith, questions that continue to shape our understanding of the gospel today.
In this letter, Paul boldly defends the true gospel of Christ. But in doing so, he also shows us that God is not afraid of our questions. |

They say if you want to make the biggest impact, you must go where the need is greatest. With that in mind, did you know... This is what inspired Mercy Ships, which has two state-of-the-art hospital ships sailing along the coast of Africa that provide free surgery to the most vulnerable children in underserved communities.
Without surgery, Umu's life would be in danger. She was born with a tumor on her neck that began to encroach upon her airway. Thanks to free surgery, she is healthy and thriving today.
But she isn't alone in her struggle.
You can help lift up a child in need. Right now, any gift, up to $10,000, will be MATCHED. Please share your support. |

March 17 — The Africa Bible Impact Summit (ABIS) in Rwanda gathered 144 leaders from 30 countries to promote Christ-centered transformation in Africa. Hosted by Community Bible Study, it emphasized Bible engagement and discipleship rooted in African experiences. Speakers highlighted Africa's deep Christian heritage, arguing that Christianity has closer historical ties to Africa than to the West, and called for an African hermeneutic. (Christian Daily) |
| March 18 — Lifeway Research found that 52% of U.S. Protestant churches have seen at least 4% attendance growth post-pandemic, while others remain plateaued (33%) or declining (15%). Churches with 100 or more in attendance are much more likely than smaller churches to grow, suggesting the importance of capitalizing on momentum. And evangelical congregations are somewhat more likely than mainline to grow. (Lifeway Research) |
| March 18 — We previously reported that U.S. Bible sales have been growing rapidly — but what about in the notoriously faith-averse UK? As it turns out, the answer is … even more rapidly. UK Bible sales grew by a whopping 87% between 2019 and 2024. As in the U.S., part of this shift is driven by Gen Z's higher levels of spirituality: 62% of British 18- to 24-year-olds describe themselves as spiritual, compared to just 35% of those over 65.

True to their nature, demons in the Bible are a tricky category — much harder to pin down than angels. Angels, despite having many types or kinds throughout the Bible, are mostly referred to with Hebrew and Greek words meaning "messenger." Demons, though, can refer to many different beings in the Bible. |
| The book of Acts is a direct sequel to the Gospel of Luke, written by the same author and picking up directly where the gospel left off. Here's your quick reference guide to the book, including summary, key verse, important info, and reading guides. |
