Does God Want Us to Be Happy?

5 days ago | relevantmagazine.com | Taylor Berry

It shows up in sermons, small group debates, breakup justifications and Instagram captions over grayscale landscapes. At some point, most Christians hear it: “God doesn’t want you to be happy — He wants you to be holy.” The message is clear: happiness is nice, but not the goal. In fact, it might even be a red flag. But what if that’s a false choice?

What the Wilderness Narratives Teach Us About God’s Silence

1 week ago | relevantmagazine.com | Taylor Berry

In the Bible, God’s most important conversations often happen in the quiet. Not the worship-conference, goosebump kind of quiet. The wilderness kind. The kind filled with questions, hunger and waiting. If you’ve ever begged God to speak and heard nothing in return, you’re not alone — and you’re not off track. From Genesis to the Gospels, silence isn’t a sign of God’s absence. It’s part of how He forms people. Take Hagar. In Genesis 16, she flees into the desert, pregnant and discarded.
Cause Fatigue Is Real, but Disengaging Isn’t the Answer

You know that feeling when you should care — like, objectively, this is something tragic or unjust or clearly not OK — but instead, you just scroll past it and think about lunch? It’s not that you’ve stopped caring. It’s more like your compassion just ran out of battery — and no one gave you the charger.
Do I Really Have to Read the Bible Every Day?

2 weeks ago | relevantmagazine.com | Taylor Berry

Nobody’s yelling at you for not doing your quiet time. You won’t lose your salvation because you missed a day. There’s no divine Fitbit tracking your Bible-reading streak. But if you’re wondering why your faith feels flimsy, why hope feels impossible, or why your justice work leaves you exhausted instead of energized, maybe the problem isn’t that God disappeared. Maybe you’re just spiritually malnourished — and Scripture was always supposed to be your daily bread. The research backs it up.
How to Make an Impact Even as an Introvert

3 weeks ago | relevantmagazine.com | Taylor Berry

Being loud is not a spiritual gift. Somewhere along the way, many churches—and society in general—started confusing charisma with calling, volume with virtue, platform with purpose. But some of the most impactful people in the Bible wouldn’t have made it past the greeter team interview. Moses literally begged God to send someone else. Esther kept her identity hidden until the last possible moment. Even Jesus regularly dipped out for solo time in the mountains.
5 Spiritual Disciplines You’ve Probably Never Tried—But Might Actually Love - RELEVANT

3 weeks ago | relevantmagazine.com | Taylor Berry

For a lot of modern Christians, “spiritual disciplines” tend to fall into a very familiar loop: prayer, Bible reading, fasting… maybe journaling if you’re feeling extra spiritual. But the Church has a rich, weird, sometimes beautifully inconvenient history of creative ways people have connected with God—and some of them might surprise you. If you’re feeling spiritually stuck, maybe it’s not because you’re not trying hard enough. Maybe you’re just missing some tools that actually work for you.
Should I Reconcile With Someone Who’s Never Owned Their Harm?

3 weeks ago | relevantmagazine.com | Taylor Berry

Let’s say someone hurt you. Not in a “they forgot your birthday” kind of way, but in a “they gaslit you, lied about it and are now pretending like nothing ever happened” kind of way. And now, they’re texting. Or sliding into your DMs. Or showing up at mutual events with a sheepish smile and zero acknowledgment of what they did. Cue the Christian guilt spiral: Am I supposed to be the bigger person? Is this what forgiveness looks like? Am I being unloving if I keep my distance?

The News Is Breaking Your Brain (and What Science Says About It)

4 weeks ago | relevantmagazine.com | Taylor Berry

Between ongoing international conflicts, immigration crises at home and abroad, political upheaval, and a growing sense of instability in everything from education to the economy, simply keeping up with the headlines can feel like a full-time job. And somehow, you’re expected to stay informed, compassionate and spiritually grounded through it all. The problem? Your brain isn’t built for this kind of constant crisis mode.
