A healthy life of faith requires intentional engagement.

When our faith stalls, reengaging the basics is the first step to jump starting a new season of growth.

““But I have this complaint against you. You don’t love me or each other as you did at first! Look how far you have fallen! Turn back to me and do the works you did at first. If you don’t repent, I will come and remove your lampstand from its place among the churches.” (Revelation 2:4–5, NLT)

Responding humbly with our lives to the character and work of God.
