Psalm 32:7

Providence. We toss the word around. But have you ever analyzed it?

It comes from the Latin, providentia. Pro means "before" or "ahead of time"; videntia is from videre, meaning "to see."...Put them together and you have "seeing ahead of time," which is what Almighty God does. He sees the events of life ahead of time—something that we of course can never do.

We're great at history. Our hindsight is almost always 20/20. But we're lousy at prophecy, that is, the specifics of the future.

Christian singer-songwriter Terrian is sharing her testimony in a new film.

The former member of TobyMac's Diverse City sat down with the global storytelling ministry, I Am Second, to share her story. 

Music was something that Terrian knew would always be a part of her life. She grew up a pastor's kid surrounded by praise and worship music in church and her home. 

By the time she was five years old, she already knew her career would involve music. However, it wasn't until later in her life that she would develop a deeper relationship with God.

It took Frank an hour and a half of walking to get off the bridge and find the nearest gas station.
