Walking in the Newness of Christ

ButterflyLiving was created to help Christians embrace a new identity in Christ. When a butterfly breaks free from its cocoon, they emerge as a new beautiful creation. Similarly, when we accept that we are a beloved Child of God, we can relax and begin to embrace our new identity. In Romans 6:4 Paul implores us to walk in our new identity:

"Our old way of life was nailed to the cross with Christ, a decisive end to that sin-miserable life no longer at sin's every beck and call! What we believe is this: If we get included in Christ's sin-conquering death, we also get included in his life-saving resurrection."

Join us as we share stories and practical examples of walking out a better altogether life as Christ followers.

The Proverbs 31 Woman Cultivates Life with a Heart of Hope

I love how Proverbs 31:16 reveals a woman with a heart set on hope. “She considers a field and buys it; with the fruit of her hands, she plants a vineyard.” We’re not told if the Proverbs 31 woman knew in advance how much the fields would yield, how long it would take to see…
