In an age overflowing with biblical teaching, it’s easy to confuse hearing with transformation. Teaching renews the mind, but true change comes from walking with Jesus, listening to the Spirit, and obeying what we read. Pastors and teachers matter, but they cannot replace Scripture, personal faith, or daily relationship with Christ. The body of believers is strongest when each person is personally led by the Spirit, actively growing, and walking—not just listening—together in maturity.

Grief is not mere sadness—it is an all-encompassing sea that threatens to swallow your past, present, and future. Through sudden loss, I was confronted with two paths: a relationship with grief or a relationship with Jesus. Grief promises validation but steals hope; Jesus speaks harder truths that anchor the soul to eternity. Choosing Him did not erase pain, but it preserved my future, restored peace, and turned mourning into a place where healing—not hopelessness—could take root.
