by Lana Christian · In: Assurance, Faith · on Dec 26, 2022

Despite the Bible’s scanty details about the Wise Men, their story is extraordinary. They found some Hebrew holy writings and interpreted them to mean exactly what God said. They believed something completely counter to their culture and religion. They risked their reputations and more to find Jesus. God’s glory in the form of a star started their journey—and reappeared during the last few miles of the trek to guide the Wise Men to Jesus and His family. They worshipped the child-king, God Incarnate. Then dodged powerful enemies they’d made along the way. Details about the Wise Men end when an angel warns them in a dream to return home by a different route….

God’s Best Came in a Plain Package

by Lana Christian · In: Biblical history, Faith, Hope · on Dec 14, 2020

If you have kids, you’ll remember when they first grasped the concept of presents. My son was 1.5 years old when he started to understand what presents were. But he was so thrilled with the box that he didn’t realize something even better could be inside it….

by Lana Christian · In: Advice, Faith, Hope · on Aug 31, 2020

Tessa Afshar, one of my favorite Biblical fiction authors, was recently featured in the pilot of Morning Star Bright Lights, a podcast sponsored by an independent Christian bookstore on the East Coast. The host closed by asking Afshar what word she would give to their listeners. Without hesitation, she replied, “We have to guard our faith.”…
