Christ’s Commands in Action: George Washington Carver
Christ’s Commands in Action: George Washington Carver
George Washington Carver’s life shows us that when we seek the Creator for wisdom, He guides both our character and our calling. In him we see that when we are born again (John 3:3), our work becomes worship and our lives become channels of healing grace.

Christ’s Commands in Action: John and Betty Stam
Can we trust Christ with everything we love most? In John and Betty Stam, we see hearts wholly surrendered to Jesus, letting go of “little trinkets” for God’s treasures, learning to depend on Him for daily needs, and choosing obedience over comfort.

Christ’s Commands in Action: William Borden

Christ’s Commands in Action: Oswald Chambers
In Oswald Chambers we see a life of unconditional surrender—saved under Spurgeon’s preaching, yielded beyond his own plans, and shaped by long, hidden hours with God that fueled his public usefulness.

We reflect on the life of Karolina Sandell-Berg as a living expression of Jesus’ call in Matthew 5:48 to grow into spiritual maturity.

We reflect on the life of Jacob DeShazer as a powerful testimony to Jesus’ command in Matthew 5:44, seeing how the gospel turned hatred into forgiveness and enemies into brothers. Captured, tortured, and imprisoned during WWII, DeShazer encountered Christ through Scripture, and the love of Jesus changed his heart from vengeance to compassion.
