Matthew 5:43-45

"You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous."

Genesis 21:7

Long after Abraham and Sarah had given up hope of experiencing this joy, they held their very own son in their arms. It would have been easy for them to lose hope when the fulfilment of the promise didn’t come about in the way or the timing they expected. But their trust in the Lord went deeper than their human perspective, deeper than their doubts.

Christian artist Dan Bremnes released a vulnerable single to start 2025 off, sharing his testimony alongside it. 

"I think a lot of people are wrestling with their faith," says Bremnes on Instagram. "I think they don't know what to do with that or they feel ashamed, or they feel like it disqualifies them. But I actually think it's the opposite. I think we're here to wrestle with our faith. I think that's going to be our story and it's definitely mine."

Psalm 97:10

"Let those who love the Lord hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked."
