2026 Reading Plan Reflections - Day 132
by Walt Martin on May 12th, 2026
Anyone can believe after the miracle arrives. But, the official walked home believing before he saw anything at all. That is faith. And maybe that’s the invitation for us today: Don't just chase signs… trust the Savior to let the signs lead us to the treasure. To let the flesh lead us to the Word. To hear, and believe.  Read More

2026 Reading Plan Reflections - Day 131
by Walt Martin on May 11th, 2026
When grace gets too personal, we often retreat into abstraction. We hide behind theological arguments, church traditions, denominational preferences, moral comparisons, or religious performance. Anything to avoid letting Jesus touch the actual wounds, sins, fears, and longings underneath. But Jesus refuses to stay at the surface. Not to shame her — but to free her.  Read More

Without ongoing communion with Christ, we become exactly what Jesus later warns about in John 15: branches disconnected from the vine, unable to bear fruit.  Read More

God’s grace does not merely cover over brokenness. It transforms people from the inside out. Holiness is not cold rule-keeping or empty ritual. It is the life of Christ filling ordinary people until something new begins to emerge. The same Jesus who turned water into wine is still able to transform wounded hearts, disordered desires, fractured relationships, and weary spirits.  Read More

Philip does not argue Nathanael into belief. He simply invites him into proximity with Jesus “Come and see.” That is still how transformation often begins. Not through mastering doctrine first, or winning debates, but through remaining in the presence of Jesus long enough for His grace to begin reshaping us.  Read More
