Do you crave destiny? (Part 2)
Do you crave destiny? Destiny doesn't mean passively entering into tomorrow, to be a victim of the cruel and unchangeable fate of the universe. Rather, it is becoming actively engaged in the creation of tomorrow, and discovering the purposes you were always meant for.
In this video (this is part 2, watch part 1 here) author Erwin McManus explores...... >Read More

Do you crave meaning? (Part 2)
How do we understand our world? When we experience things, do we base our understanding on ourselves?
If our meaning in life is based on our emotions, this meaning will always change. If our life is going well, life will seem great. If it's not, it'll seem terrible. This is why finding real meaning in life requires more than just... >Read More

Love Calls God to You
Do you crave intimacy? Has love betrayed you? Often, our lives begin with a need for love, and our life stories consist of searching for it.

You and Your Community
What does your community say about who you are? What do you say about your community? One year ago, we featured a blog post titled "Is Patriotism Lame?" which discussed the unfortunate riots which erupted in Toronto during the G20 Summit in June 2010.
