The Power of Your Unseen Life with God
What if the most important part of your spiritual life is the part nobody else sees?
In our age of social media highlights and public performance, we've become accustomed to measuring our worth by what others witness. We post our achievements, share our victories, and carefully curate the image we present to the world. But what about the hidden places? What about the secret conversations between you and God that no one else knows about?
There's something profoundly transformative about developing a secret life with God—not secret in the sense of shameful things we're hiding, but secret in the sense of sacred intimacy that belongs only to you and Him.
Faithful: A Call to Long Obedience in the Same Direction
In a world of instant gratification and fleeting commitments, the concept of faithfulness might seem outdated. Yet, as we look at the state of faith in our communities, particularly in regions like Seattle where religious engagement is declining, we're reminded of the profound impact that faithful living can have.
Recent studies paint a sobering picture: 64% of people in the Seattle area live without any faith as part of their daily lives. Weekly church attendance has dropped from 25% to 17% in just a decade. Daily prayer and Bible reading have seen similar declines. These statistics might leave us feeling discouraged, but they also present an opportunity - a call to action for those who believe in the transformative power of faith.
