2026 Reading Plan Reflections - Day 139
by Walt Martin on May 19th, 2026
Our world is spiritually dehydrated. People are exhausted, angry, anxious, distracted, lonely, cynical, over-stimulated, and deeply thirsty for meaning, hope, peace, and life. We keep digging cisterns that cannot hold water — success, politics, consumption, entertainment, outrage, even religion detached from genuine communion with God.  Read More

Jesus points toward the Father. The church is called to point toward Christ. And when the church truly lives with sacrificial love, humility, holiness, and grace, it becomes evident that its goal is not self-preservation or self-promotion, but bearing witness to the Kingdom of God.  Read More

2026 Reading Plan Reflections - Day 136

There are moments when we desperately want Jesus to hand us bread while keeping a safe emotional distance. We want solutions more than surrender.

2026 Reading Plan Reflections - Day 134
by Walt Martin on May 14th, 2026
Following Jesus requires more thought, not less. The movement is always meant to continue beyond analysis into worship, prayer, obedience, adoration, and personal knowledge of Christ. From Scripture to Messiah and back again. An upward spiral.  Read More
