    Trusting God with opposition frees us from control and revenge, inviting us to pray honestly and rest in His faithful care amid conflict and criticism.

    Some weeks feel like a parade of prickly people and pricklier problems. A stray comment stings. A coworker corners you with criticism.

    God’s power is greater than our problems; prayer and obedience invite hope and restoration even when circumstances seem impossible or overwhelming.

    Some weeks feel like a siege, don’t they? The walls close in. The headlines howl. The bills glare. Your energy ebbs and your faith feels small. You stand at a window and you wonder, “How is this going to work?” If that’s you today, you’re in familiar, biblical company. Jeremiah knew about closed ...read more

    Jesus, the Good Shepherd, personally calls us by name, offering true life, guidance, and security amid life’s noise and distractions.

    Some weeks feel like standing in a crowded barn. So many voices. So much noise. Phones buzz. News churns. Deadlines demand. You find yourself wondering, Does anyone hear me? Does anyone know my name? The pages of John 10 open like a quiet pasture on a loud day. They whisper, Yes. The Shepherd does. ...read more

    The sermon urges us to turn from self-reliance and busyness, remembering that our true purpose and security are found in knowing and seeking God Himself.

    Friends, I’m glad you’re here. Life runs fast, doesn’t it? The calendar fills, the inbox swells, the deadlines line up like dominoes.

    Through Christ’s victory, believers can stand strong amid unseen spiritual battles by relying on God’s strength, prayer, and the armor He provides.

    Friends, welcome. Some weeks feel like a breeze; others feel like a battlefield. You wake up, pour the coffee, and before the mug cools, a storm swirls—tension at home, a cutting comment at work, a nagging worry that refuses to hush. The calendar looks normal. The room looks quiet. Yet the soul ...read more

     | 83 views

    God calls us to consecrate ourselves—living holy, set-apart lives—so we are ready for Him to work wonders in and through us.

    There’s a hush that falls over the heart when you sense God is nearby. Not in the thunder, not even in the headlines, but in the ordinary—the kettle singing in the kitchen, a lunch pail packed for work, the Bible open on a worn table. In those moments, something within whispers, “Get ready.” ...read more

     | 108 views

    Prayer is our refuge in anxiety, inviting God’s peace and strength to guard our hearts and renew us amid life’s worries and uncertainties.

    Some of us walked in today with a knot in the stomach and a weight on the chest. Worry whispers at 3 a.m., bills pile on the counter, diagnoses arrive in sterile envelopes, and the what-ifs line up like storm clouds on the horizon. Our hearts try to outrun our thoughts, and our thoughts try to ...read more

    Prayer begins with trusting God as our Father, centering our lives on Him, and building a simple, daily rhythm of fellowship through Christ.

    If you listen close enough, right where the morning is thin and the coffee is warm, you can almost hear the first word Jesus taught us to pray: Father. Not a distant title, not a cold address, but a name full of nearness and tenderness. The kind of name a child whispers when the night is long and ...read more

    The sermon encourages steadfast obedience and faithful confession of Jesus despite spiritual opposition, assuring believers their perseverance matters and is empowered by Christ’s victory.

    If you’ve ever felt the sting of being misunderstood for loving Jesus, if you’ve ever sensed a shadow trying to smother your song, you’re in good company. The Bible is honest about that ache. It doesn’t gloss over the grit. It names the Enemy. It speaks of a dragon. It recognizes that there is ...read more

    Friends, some mornings feel like the sky forgot to wake up. The headlines are heavy, our homes can be hurried, and our hearts carry more than they let on.

    True acceptance with God comes not from self-righteousness or performance, but from humble, honest confession and receiving His mercy through Jesus Christ.

    Some of us walked in today with weary hearts and distracted minds. The week has been loud. Deadlines and dishes, headlines and heartaches—so many voices bidding for your attention. But in the quiet place where you talk to God, what matters most? How do you come to Him? With polished phrases and ...read more

    Friends, take a deep breath of grace today. You are seen. You are loved. You are wanted by the God who fashioned you—mind, heart, and body. He cares about all of you, and He cares right now. For some of us, the word body brings a flurry of feelings—shame from the past, confusion from the present, ...read more

     | 64 views

    Trusting God in the midst of fear means refusing to panic, anchoring ourselves in His Word, and passing courage to others through faith.

    If fear had a face, many of us could sketch it from memory. It’s the 2 a.m. visitor, the whisperer of what-ifs, the tightness in the chest that shows up when the phone rings, the inbox pings, or the doctor clears his throat. Fear creeps into bedrooms, boardrooms, and back pews. It visits ...read more
