QFD | Treasured : Entry 12 - When Christ Weighs What We Did
There will be a day when money is no longer earned, saved, or spent. On that day, it will only testify. Today, by grace, you can still decide what it will say.

QFD | Treasured : Entry 11 - When Hearing Isn't Obedience
We know what Jesus said about generosity, security, and trust. We just don't want to do it — because doing it costs actual dollars, not just intentions. What we've treasured quietly reveals itself when obedience gets concrete.

QFD | Treasured - ENTRY 7: The Open-Hand Test
Christ gave Himself first. Generosity is not a spiritual exercise—it is obedience that participates in His pattern and meets the needs of His body.

QFD | Treasured : Entry 4 - When Money Reshapes Desire

QFD | Treasured: What Money Reveals About the Heart - Series Introduction
Money doesn’t just pay bills—it tells the truth about us. This series cuts through Christian clichés and modern comfort culture to expose how money forms the soul, claims our allegiance, and reveals who we really serve. Jesus said our treasure exposes our heart. This series shows why He was right.

QFD | Breaking Up With the Old Self : Transformation
Holiness didn’t wait for you to be strong—it met you in the water. And every day since, God has been bending your desires away from the old self and toward the joy you tasted when your sins were washed away. Transformation is not a finish line. It is the daily death of self and the daily resurrection of hope.

QFD | Holy Fire, Strange Fire
Strange Fire rises from a heart that refuses God; holy fire breaks out when Jesus takes over. When Christ transforms you, the hardness that once resisted Him becomes the strength that stands against sin. The fire changes—but the Source must change first.

QFD | Joshua — The Tension Between Obedience and Rebellion
Obedience lines you up with God’s power; rebellion separates you from it. The same God who tore down Jericho’s walls still asks His people to trust Him enough to step into the river before it parts. Every act of obedience echoes the Cross—faith moving before sight, surrender before outcome.

QFD | Hardness Redeemed: When the Stone Heart Turns Against Sin
The same hardness of heart that once resisted God can, through Jesus, become the very strength that resists sin. Grace doesn’t erase your temperament—it redeems it. The will that once said “no” to God becomes the fortress that says “no” to evil.

QFD | The Two Currents of Light: Descent and Ascent
Worship can quietly shift from being something we offer to God to something we perform for ourselves or others. Excellence is not the problem. The problem is when the experience becomes the goal — when the feeling becomes the measure of truth. When that happens, we keep the glow, but lose the weight.

QFD | When the Eyes Choose Not to See: Willful Blindness
Willful Blindness doesn’t equal innocence—it’s agreement with the dark. This devotional traces how hearts drift from sight to shade and how grace brings us back: exposure that heals, training that reforms, and a walk in the light shaped by confession, concrete obedience, and honest community.

QFD | Counterfeit Grace — When Mercy Stops Before Obedience
There is a kind of grace that comforts the sinner but never confronts the sin. It feels merciful, but it isn’t holy. True grace doesn’t tranquilize the conscience—it trains the soul. It forgives, then forms. Grace that never leads to obedience is not grace at all; it’s flattery disguised as freedom.

QFD | When Control Escapes Like Water
When control slips through your fingers, remember who holds it steady. Peace begins where your grip ends—when Christ rules the heart and aligns it with the Father’s will.

Quiet Fire Devotional | Control, Surrender, And God's Will
Control wears many disguises. Sometimes it is loud, demanding, unyielding. Other times, it creeps in quietly, hidden in tones of sarcasm or the whisper of a passive-aggressive remark. But the intent is the same: to bend people and circumstances toward our will.
