Nicodemus stepped through the narrow streets, his sandals brushing against the cool stones. The scent of burning wood drifted from nearby homes. His heart pounded faster with each step. Finally, he reached the place where Jesus was staying. A soft light flickered inside — maybe from a small oil lamp. Nicodemus hesitated, then knocked lightly. Jesus looked up as the door opened. His eyes, calm and kind, met Nicodemus’s. It was as if He already knew why he had come. “Rabbi,” Nicodemus began, his voice trembling slightly, “we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. No...

She closed her eyes, trying to pray—but all she could hear was her own voice from earlier. “Why her?” “I deserve to be noticed.” “I’m better than her.” Suddenly, Mia felt a strange heaviness. Not on her chest, but deep in her heart. Like something had gone numb. Her chest tightened. She couldn’t cry. She couldn’t even pray properly. Her heart felt… cold. As if something inside...

Miriam collapsed to the ground. Her skin… was white. Snow white. It was like watching life being drained from her. Leprosy. Her hands were cracked, her face pale and covered in white blotches. She gasped. “What’s happening to me?!” Aaron’s face turned ghostly. “Miriam…” he choked, falling to his knees. “Dear God, no.” He turned to Moses, who had just come running. “Please, brother! Don’t hold our foolishness against us! We were wrong—we sinned! Please, pray for her!” This week we dive into the story of Miriam and her leprosy - you can find it in your Bibles...

“Ayyy, Jordan!” He turned. He turned. It was Paris—19, popular, confident, and the daughter of the gym’s owner. She came in often, usually just to scroll on her phone at the juice bar or flirt with the trainers. Jordan had always been polite to her but kept things light. He could sense she liked attention, and he didn’t want drama. “You’re still here,” she said, leaning on the doorframe. “It’s basically just us.” Jordan smiled politely. “Yeah—closing shift. Just about done.” Paris stepped inside slowly, letting the door swing shut behind her. Her...

One late afternoon, as the shadows stretched long and the palace began to cool, Joseph passed through the inner hallways of the house carrying scrolls. The wind blew softly through the open windows, rustling linen curtains. A voice called gently, “Joseph.” He turned, and there stood Potiphar’s wife, dressed in fine silk, her eyes fixed intently on him. “Yes, mistress?” he asked politely, lowering his gaze respectfully. Her voice was smooth like honey. “Come and lie with me.” Joseph’s heart pounded. He froze. The silence between them thickened like desert heat. He took a...

"Hey, aren't you part of those freaks?" she accused.
Pete felt like he swallowed a rock. What could he say?
Then, with a mind of their own, his lips parted, and he croaked out a no!
"Yeah, she’s right," a member of the opposing team stated. I'm sure I've seen you at the stations with the other goodie two shoes," he smirked.
Pete felt his face grown hot as more eyes turned to watch him.
"I don't know them," Pete growled.
"Yeah, I've seen you, plus you talk and act differently. ," someone Pete wasn't sure he'd seen agreed.
Pete couldn’t take it. He felt humiliated.
