Descent Into Death
We don’t usually linger on the thought of death. It’s easier to stay busy, trying to convince ourselves that (as long as we keep moving) we won’t have to face this particular fear. But avoidance never really works. The inevitable mortality of it all will catch up … eventually. And, when we do inevitably run into it, we need more than comforting words or trite platitudes. We need someone or something real.
What if hope could be found in the very place we try hardest to avoid? What if the deepest shadows weren’t proof of God’s absence but the place where His presence becomes undeniable? Sometimes the way to life begins by walking straight into what feels like the end. In fact, the way through death is in the company of One who’s already been there.

We are constantly being formed by what we hear, what we repeat, and what we choose to believe. In a world filled with competing voices and shifting definitions, it’s easy to forget who we are or what we stand on. Faith becomes fuzzy, and conviction feels complicated ... even problematic. Over time, even the most essential truths can start to feel distant or optional. Without something solid beneath us, we drift.
What if the clarity we long for isn’t something new we need to find, but something ancient we need to rediscover? What if truth is not just an idea to debate, but a long-established foundation to build on? There is wisdom in remembering. And sometimes the way forward begins by anchoring ourselves in the beauty and depth of what has come before us. There is truth worth remembering.
