“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” — John 1:1 John begins his Gospel with the same phrase we find in the Greek version of Genesis: En archē, “In the beginning.” He begins this way on purpose. Just as the beginning of Genesis tells the story of creation, climaxing in the creation of humankind as God’s image-bearers (see Genesis 1:27), John intends to tell the story of new creation and humanity’s redemption through the Lord Jesus Christ. Whereas Genesis tells the story of humans falling into sin and darkness, John 1 promises that there is a light in the darkness (see vv. 4–5), bringing life and hope into a hopeless world. That light is Jesus Christ. John 1:1 introduces Jesus as the “Word.” God spoke creation into being by the power of his word (see Genesis 1:3), and Jesus Christ is the living Word, the Word made flesh (see John 1:14). This means that Jesus is the true expression of God. Jesus is not merely a human prophet to whom God gave important messages and teachings. No, Jesus is the full Word of God in human form. John 1:1 reminds us that the existence of God the Son did not begin when Jesus was born to Mary. In fact, the Word was always with God, right from the beginning: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John teaches that God the Son was involved in the work of creation. As John goes on to write in verse 3: “Through [the Word] all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.” Thus, from the opening words of his Gospel, John teaches that Jesus is nothing less than God himself. However, there is also a distinction between the Father and the Son in verse 1: “the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” This is an early expression of the Christian understanding of the Trinity. We believe in one God who exists eternally as three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. They are co-eternal. This is a confusing doctrine for believers, but it is the way the Bible presents who God is. This means that God is a relational being. Therefore, part of being made in the image of God is that we are relational beings, and the most important relationship of our lives is our relationship with God. This is the relationship Christ came into the world to restore. Where sin separated us from God, the grace God offers through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ opens the way for us to have a right relationship with God once more (see Romans 5:1–2). No one can restore our relationship with God except through the grace offered in Christ. On our own, we cannot even mark the path that would restore us to God and to living fully as God created us to live. As the old hymn “Holy, Holy, Holy” says, “the eye made blind by sin thy glory cannot see.” This is why it was necessary for God to do the work of disclosing himself to us. God shows himself to us in the words of the Bible, and most fully of all in the Word, Jesus Christ the Son. Jesus shows us who God is and what God is like. When God took this initiative, new possibilities were born—and still are today. Divine power is released into our broken world, bringing new life to broken people. Transformation is not an inspired human work; it is a divine work through and through. Jesus is no ordinary person, though many will claim he is. Jesus is the greatest person ever to walk the earth. God the Son existed eternally before creation. Jesus came as a man born to Mary to show a fallen world the love and grace of God, to go so far as to die for sinners so that we might find forgiveness and new life through him (see Romans 5:6–8). Jesus is our Savior and Redeemer. John wrote his Gospel long ago so that people in all times and places would read his words, meet Christ, and come to believe and find life in Jesus. What a beautiful testimony of God’s grace, which still brings people from darkness to light, from despair to hope, from death to life today!

“Is the Bible trustworthy?” “Is God fair?” “Are there three Gods?” If you have children, you’ve probably heard questions like these and many more. Kids are naturally curious. Their questions often come when you’re driving them to or from school, tucking them into bed, or eating dinner together. While some questions make us smile, others can leave us searching for the right words. The good news is that you don’t need to have all the answers to help your child grow in faith. In fact, one of the greatest gifts you can give your child is not having every answer. It’s creating an environment where asking questions about God is welcomed and where the Bible becomes the place you explore those answers together. Every Question Is an Opportunity to Disciple Children aren’t just collecting facts when they ask spiritual questions. They’re trying to understand who God is, how the Bible fits together, and what faith means for their own lives. Instead of feeling pressured to provide an immediate answer, consider responding with curiosity. You might say: “That’s a really interesting question.” “Let’s see what the Bible says.” “I’m not sure, but let’s discover it together.” These simple responses communicate two powerful things: God’s Word is trustworthy, and learning about him is a lifelong journey (Psalm 119:105; 2 Timothy 3:16–17). When children see parents turning to Scripture first, they learn that the Bible isn’t just a book for church on Sunday. It is an important guide for everyday life (see Joshua 1:8). You Don’t Have to Be a Bible Expert Many parents worry they won’t know the Bible well enough to answer difficult questions. The truth is you don’t need a seminary degree to spiritually train your children. God simply calls parents to faithfully point their children toward him (Deuteronomy 6:6–7). God also promises to give wisdom to those who ask him (James 1:5). Your willingness to open the Bible together often makes a greater impact than having the perfect explanation. When you admit, “I’m not sure. Let’s find out together,” you’re modeling humility, dependence on God’s Word, and a love for learning. Those are valuable lessons your child will carry long after they’ve forgotten the specific question. Make Bible Conversations Part of Everyday Life Meaningful faith conversations don’t have to happen only during family devotions. Look for natural opportunities throughout the day: During a walk, admire God’s creation and talk about his power (Psalm 19:1). At bedtime, ask if your child has any questions about God or the Bible. After church, discuss something they learned, and encourage follow-up questions. While reading a Bible story, pause to ask, “What do you think God is teaching us in this story?” Small conversations, repeated over time, often shape a child’s faith more than one long lesson. Encourage Questions Instead of Shutting Them Down Sometimes parents unintentionally discourage curiosity because they’re afraid that difficult questions signal doubt. But questions are often evidence that a child’s faith is growing. Children who feel safe asking honest questions are more likely to develop a faith that becomes their own rather than one they simply inherit. Instead of worrying when your child asks, “Why does God allow bad things?” or “Does God love me even when I’ve been bad?” celebrate their desire to understand God more deeply. These conversations can become some of the most meaningful moments you’ll share together. Jesus himself welcomed those who sincerely sought understanding (John 3:1-21), and God invites us to seek him with all our hearts (see Jeremiah 29:13). Focus on the Conversation, Not the Answer Sometimes we become so focused on giving the “right” answer that we miss the relationship being built. Your child will not remember every explanation you give, but they’ll remember sitting beside you, opening God’s Word together, and knowing that their questions mattered. Those moments build trust, not only between parent and child but also between your child and God’s Word. Every conversation becomes another opportunity to help your child see that the Bible speaks to real life and that God welcomes those who sincerely seek him Matthew 7:7–8). Start Today The next time your child asks a question about God, resist the urge to rush through it. Pause. Listen. Open the Bible together. You don’t have to have every answer. You simply need a willingness to explore God’s truth alongside your child. Over time, those ordinary conversations become extraordinary opportunities to nurture a lifelong love for Scripture and a faith that continues to grow. As you do, remember God’s promise: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Do not depend on your own understanding. In all your ways obey him. Then he will make your paths smooth and straight.” (Proverbs 3:5–6). Use Resources That Make Conversations Easier One of the best ways to build confidence is to keep age-appropriate Bible resources within reach. The NIrV Question and Answer Bible for Kids was created specifically for children ages 6–10 who are beginning to explore God’s Word on their own. Written in the easy to read New International Reader’s Version (NIrV), it meets young readers at an accessible reading level while helping answer many of the questions they’re already asking. Throughout this Bible, engaging question-and-answer features connect Scripture to everyday curiosity, helping children understand biblical truths in ways they can grasp. Instead of simply reading the text, families can pause, discuss the featured questions, and continue the conversation together to create meaningful conversations that help children build a lifelong foundation of faith. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the New International Reader’s Version (NIrV), a trusted Bible translation that has helped millions of beginning readers, English language learners, and children confidently engage with Scripture. Based on the accurate and trusted New International Version (NIV), the NIrV uses a simpler vocabulary and shorter sentences while remaining faithful to the meaning of the biblical text. For three decades, it has helped young readers read, understand, and grow in God’s Word with confidence. Learn more about the NIrV and see all the Bibles available in the NIrV translation.

The imminent and soon return of Jesus Christ is one of the most foundational, recurring themes in the New Testament. From the Gospels to the Epistles, the early church lived with an eager expectation that history would culminate in the personal, visible return of their Savior. 1. The Biblical Teaching on the Soon Return of Jesus Scripture presents the return of Christ not merely as a distant theological concept, but as a living hope that should shape everyday behavior. The Promise of His Coming: On the night of His betrayal, Jesus comforted His disciples with the promise of His return: "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also" (John 14:3). Following His ascension, angels reaffirmed this truth to the gazing disciples, declaring, "This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven" (Acts 1:11). The Suddenness and Imminence: The New Testament frequently uses the phrase "soon" or describes His coming as happening like "a thief in the night" (1 Thessalonians 5:2). This does not necessarily dictate a timeline governed by human calendars, but rather emphasizes imminence—it could happen at any moment, demanding perpetual spiritual alertness. The Ultimate Vindication: When Christ returns, He will not come as a suffering servant, but as the conquering King and righteous Judge. Paul writes that the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven "in flaming fire, inflicting vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus" (2 Thessalonians 1:8), while bringing glorious salvation to those eagerly waiting for Him (Hebrews 9:28). 2. What the Church Must Do to Prepare To "prepare" for Christ’s return does not mean retreating from society or franically setting dates. Biblically, preparation is active, faithful, and focused. The church is called to posture itself in specific ways: Maintain Spiritual Vigilance and Holiness: Believers are commanded to put off the works of darkness and cultivate personal purity. 1 John 3:2–3 notes, "We know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure." Diligently Execute the Great Commission: Being ready means being busy about the Master’s business. In the Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14–30), the master commends the servants who multiplied what they were given, while rebuking the one who buried his gift out of laziness and fear. The church prepares by actively making disciples, preaching the Gospel, and advancing God’s kingdom globally. Persist in Loving Community and Good Works: Amid trials, division, and cultural pressure, the church must refuse to grow cold in love. Hebrews 10:24–25 urges believers to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, "not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near." 3. Illustrations and Examples Illustration A: The Ten Virgins (The Danger of Complacency) In Matthew 25:1–13, Jesus tells the parable of ten bridesmaids waiting for a bridegroom. Five were foolish and took no extra oil for their lamps; five were wise, bringing flasks of oil. When the bridegroom was delayed, they all dozed off. But at midnight, the cry went out: "Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him." The foolish virgins realized their lamps were going out and scrambled to buy oil, missing the arrival altogether and finding the door locked. The Lesson: "Oil" represents an authentic, living relationship with the Holy Spirit and sustained saving faith. You cannot borrow spiritual readiness from someone else at the last minute; every individual believer must maintain a personal, vibrant walk with Christ. Illustration B: The Anchor and the Ship (The Anchor of Hope) Think of a massive cargo ship caught in a violent, turbulent harbor storm. The waves crash against the hull, and visibility is near zero. The crew does not panic or abandon ship; instead, they drop a heavy anchor deep into the seabed, securing the vessel against the shifting tides. The Lesson: Hebrews 6:19 describes the hope of Christ's return as "a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul." When cultural instability, suffering, and societal shifts buffet the modern church, the promise of Jesus' return acts as our anchor. It keeps the church stable, preventing us from drifting into despair or worldly compromise, fixing our eyes steadily on the horizon where our King will appear. 4. The Current State of the American Church: Closer or Further Away? Evaluating whether the American Christian church is moving closer to or further away from God reveals a deeply complex, polarized picture. Sociological tracking from organizations like the Pew Research Center and the Barna Group highlights a church undergoing a massive, painful reset. The Reality of Cultural De-centering: For decades, the American church enjoyed cultural privilege. That era has ended. Long-term metrics show that regular church attendance has declined significantly since the early 2000s, and overall religious identification (those identifying as Christian) has dropped. Millions have transitioned into the "nones" (religiously unaffiliated), marking a drift away from institutional faith. Signs of Refiner’s Fire and Realignment: Paradoxically, while the nominal (cultural) Christian middle is evaporating, there are localized signs of deeper devotion. Recent data points to a stabilization of attendance baselines, alongside pockets of intense spiritual hunger and theological seriousness among younger generations (such as Gen Z). The Verdict: The American church as a whole is arguably moving further away from cultural comfort and superficial religion, but being forced to decide whether to move closer to authentic, costly discipleship. The shedding of nominalism—though painful—is purifying, leaving behind a remnant that must choose between worldly assimilation and true faithfulness to Christ. 5. The Impact of the "Church Growth Movement" Beginning in the mid-to-late 20th century (sparked by missiologists like Donald McGavran and popularized by mega-church leadership models), the Church Growth Movement aimed to reverse decline by treating church expansion through the lens of corporate strategy, marketing, and pragmatic consumer-sensitivity. Its legacy on the American church is profound and mixed: The Positives (Pragmatic Effectiveness): Excellence and Accessibility: The movement successfully challenged insular, unwelcoming church cultures. It forced congregations to think carefully about clear communication, clean facilities, parking, and removing unnecessary human barriers for seekers entering a building. Focus on the Lost: It re-energized a passion for evangelism and outreach, reminding leaders that the church exists for those who are outside of it. The Negatives (The Spiritual Cost): Consumerism in the Pews: By prioritizing what "seekers" or consumers wanted, many churches inadvertently shifted the focus from cross-bearing discipleship to customer satisfaction. Worship became entertainment; preaching became therapeutic life-coaching rather than expository repentance and holiness. The "Growth at All Costs" Compromise: To maximize numbers, hard truths regarding sin, judgment, self-denial, and costly obedience were often downplayed. The Illusion of Health: As critics have noted, the movement often conflated numerical growth with spiritual health. A church can swell with thousands of attendees through clever marketing while its members remain spiritually malnourished, undiscipled, and virtually indistinguishable from the surrounding secular culture. 6. Bringing It Together: Preparing for Christ's Return Today When we view the current state of the American church and the legacy of the Church Growth Movement through the lens of Christ's soon return, the call to preparation becomes starkly clear. The church cannot ready itself for a holy Bridegroom by relying on corporate growth algorithms, polished stage production, or cultural relevance. Instead, the impending return of Jesus demands a return to substantive spiritual depth: a) Trading Metrics for Maturity: We must stop measuring "success" by seating capacity and start measuring it by the depth of personal holiness, sacrificial love, and biblical literacy in the pews. b) Resisting Cultural Conformity: As the culture grows increasingly post-Christian, the church must stop trying to blend in to win approval. True readiness looks like the wise virgins keeping their lamps filled with the genuine oil of the Holy Spirit—standing firm, distinct, and eagerly waiting for the sky to split. Shifting a local church culture away from consumerism and back toward watchful, authentic discipleship does not always require a massive top-down organizational overhaul. Often, it begins from the ground up, fueled by individual believers who refuse to treat the church like a service provider. Individual believers can help pivot their local church culture through several intentional, practical steps: 1. Shift from "What Do I Get?" to "How Can I Serve?" The Consumer Mindset: Attends church to evaluate the production, the music, or the comfort, asking: “Did this meet my needs today?” The Disciple's Pivot: Re-evaluates personal presence by asking: “How can I give of myself, bear burdens, and minister to others?” Believers can combat consumerism by stepping out of the rows and into active, unseen service—volunteering in children’s ministries, mentoring youth, or visiting the sick without waiting to be begged by leadership. 2. Deepen Relational Accountability and Vulnerability The Consumer Mindset: Prefers the anonymity of a crowd where one can slip in unnoticed and leave without being known. The Disciple's Pivot: Actively plugs into smaller, localized pockets of fellowship (such as life groups, prayer cells, or accountability triads) where confession, spiritual struggle, and deep truth can be shared. When believers choose transparency over keeping up appearances, the church becomes a hospital for sinners rather than a showcase for spectators. 3. Anchor Local Conversations in Eternal Realities The Consumer Mindset: Obsesses over temporal preferences—style of worship music, building aesthetics, or campus amenities. The Disciple's Pivot: Purposefully steers conversational culture toward eternal things. Believers can inject a sense of watchful readiness into their peer groups by talking about spiritual hunger, local outreach, holiness, and the return of Christ, gently calling fellow members out of petty preferences and back to the core mission of the Gospel. 4. Support and Encourage Costly, Biblical Leadership The Consumer Mindset: Demands that pastors tickle their ears, avoid hard truths, and cater to every comfort. The Disciple's Pivot: Explicitly encourages leadership to preach hard, uncompromised truths, shepherd souls, and prioritize discipleship over metrics. Believers can lift up their pastors by letting them know they want substantive scriptural depth, repentance, and life transformation—reassuring leadership that they will support them even when the message calls for costly obedience. "A consumer attends, evaluates, and chooses based on preference. A disciple follows, obeys, and is shaped over time." A Thought for Reflection As you look at your own rhythm of church involvement, what is one concrete way you can move this week from consuming a religious program to contributing as a servant-disciple of Christ?
