My picks for the 10 best iPhone apps for Christians. These are the best apps for listening to sermons, the best Bible apps, and the best productivity apps.
We live in a time in which there is unprecedented access to Bible study tools—multiple excellent translations, study helps, internet resources, Bible software, phone apps, etc.—yet we are also more distracted than ever. Personal devotion to God through Bible reading is a blessing you do not want to
Do you ever get that nagging feeling when you're trying to take a break? "I should really be working." I'm willing to bet that if you're reading a productivity blog, you're someone who feels guilty when they relax. I want
What do you think of when you hear the word “meditation?” Do you picture a person sitting cross-legged, thumbs and index fingers forming little O’s, and uttering “Ohm” again and again? In Western society, meditation is a word which has been co-opted by Eastern mystical practices. So
What is the most valuable resource in the universe? Jonathan Edwards would answer that question with, "time." Time is the most precious resource in the universe. Dated December of 1734, Puritan pastor Jonathan Edwards's, short essay The Preciousness of Time and The Importance of Redeeming It
One thing we didn't account for was just how selective we would need to be with what we brought on the RV.

Prayer is a vital component to a thriving Christian life. It is a means of our sanctification, fellowship with God, expression of love for our fellow believers, an opportunity for worship, and a conduit for God's blessings. But if that's not enough to get you to pray more, allow me to propose one mo
