The Chapel Quotes
“Get some courage and faith and take the next step of commitment in the body of Christ. We are a family, and we need each other. Have a prayer life that shifts from formal repeated prayers to a raw, real dialogue with God. Prayer that’s filled with confession and questioning and surrender and desperation and intercession, learning to listen to God’s voice. It’s a shift from religion to relationship. God wants to bring forgiveness and healing and wholeness to your life, to your heart.”
“Getting saved is not the finish line but the entrance point into a brand new life with Jesus. The body of Christ is a beautiful hopeful gathering of people wounded by life and sin but holding each other up by being present to one another, being accountable to one another, praying for one another, loving one another as we walk together deeper into Christ’s love and God’s truth, one step at a time. Where are you on this journey?”

Devotion 01/25/2026
Our Devotion, “Can’t Find It Here” is by Makenna Dunkelberger of Tustin, California, who studied professional writing at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ.” Colossians 2:8 (NIV)
Have you ever been up late at night watching one of those TV infomercials, trying to sell you crazy products? You watch someone dancing around in a snuggie or cut a block of cement with a butter knife, and you think, Wow, I have to have that! When it finally reaches you in the mail you pull it out and to your great dismay it cannot do anything it said it would.
This is what happens when we rely on the world for truth. We need to depend on Christ for truth instead of being “taken captive by hollow and deceptive philosophy.” We are easily deceived by friends and the media when they tell us intricately woven lies about our world today. Instead of depending on them, we need to look to God for wisdom and support.
PRAYER: Dear God, I understand that I am not of this world, but help me not to fall prey to the lies of those around me. Show me that You are the ultimate truth and the King of kings. In Your heavenly name, Amen.
Book Review 01/21/2026
This Book Review is by J. J. Hanna, a Professional Writing Major at Taylor University
Someone Has to Die
by Jim Baton
Createspace, PB, 346 pages
Following the stories of a peace-making congressman, a terrorist bent on wiping Christians from the earth, the family of an ex-terrorist, and a single Christian mother and her daughter, this book is a roller coaster from start to finish. Multiple characters are faced with internal issues of identity as they struggle with the external issues regarding the unstable relationship between Christians and Muslims. The two families are drawn together at the height of tensions between the two religions after an unruly gang of Muslim teenagers burns down the church the Christian family attends. A member of the volunteer fire rescue team (an ex-terrorist) finds himself running into the flames to save the only person trapped in the fire.
In the weeks following this event, two of the children become close and fall in love, causing a second religious struggle as one is a Christian and one is a Muslim. Just after the fire victims are released from the hospital, the ex-terrorist’s son is recruited for the same group he used to fight for, despite all of his father’s efforts to keep him safe and out of the reach of Jihad.
Due to a shocking shift of events, the characters are arranged perfectly for an unlikely hero to show love and forgiveness to the person responsible for many life threatening situations.
Lovers of thrillers would enjoy this book. Mature readers would gain an understanding of Indonesian culture and would come away with a fresh perspective on the issues between Muslims and Christians.
A list of characters is included at the front of the book, which is very helpful because the characters’ names are true to the region. Also, the topic of suicide comes up a few times in this book.
