     | 68 views

    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. We build our days with bricks of busyness—palaces of productivity, towers of tasks, fortresses of to-do lists. And yet, there comes that quiet hour when the house ...read more

    God relentlessly pursues us with grace, even when we run or resist, inviting us to trust His presence and respond to His call.

    Some of us know the sound of God’s whisper as well as we know our own name. It comes in the quiet of a morning commute, in the nudge you can’t shake, in the Scripture that lands like a letter with your address on it. And some of us know the sound of our feet when they’re running in the opposite ...read more

     | 120 views

    Persistent prayer matters because God hears, cares, and responds in His perfect timing, inviting us to trust Him even when answers seem delayed.

    Some prayers are born in bright rooms with balloons and birthday cake. Others are born at 2:13 a.m., when the house is quiet, the questions are loud, and the pillow is wet. Some prayers feel like sprinting—fast, full of faith. Others feel like limping—slow, sore, and short on strength. If you’ve ...read more

    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

    The sermon encourages believers to rely on God’s strength and spiritual armor to stand firm and confident in Christ’s victory amid life’s spiritual battles.

    Friend, if your week felt like a wrestling match, you’re in good company. Life has a way of stacking bricks on the back—duties that demand, headlines that hammer, whispers that weigh heavy. And then there’s that quiet pressure you can’t quite name. You can tidy the kitchen and tame the calendar, ...read more

    True gratitude transforms us—recognizing God’s mercy in our lives leads to deeper healing, richer faith, and a life made whole by thankfulness.

    Some of us walked in today with smiles that fit like borrowed shoes. They look fine, but they don’t feel right. Hearts a little hurried. Souls a bit sore. We know the ache of unanswered prayers and the sting of feeling unseen. If that’s you, your pew has your name on it, and your Shepherd has your ...read more

     | 70 views

    God calls us to honest, wholehearted integrity—living openly before Him and others—because true freedom and joy are found in sincerity, not in appearances.

    Some passages ease into our living rooms like an old friend, and some step onto the front porch and ring the bell with urgency. Acts 5 is one of those moments. It invites us to sit still, to listen closely, and to remember that God cares about what we hold in our hands and what we hide in our ...read more

     | 95 views

    True faith is shown by obeying Jesus’ words, building our lives on His foundation so we stand firm through life’s storms.

    Friends, some of us walked in today with a smile on our face and a storm in our chest. The winds may not be rattling your windows, but they might be rattling your peace. A report you didn’t expect. A bill you can’t pay. A relationship you’re not sure will hold. Have you ever felt the floorboards of ...read more

     | 55 views

    Jesus invites us to bring our deepest, honest desires to Him in prayer, trusting His compassion and power to transform our lives.

    If you could hear Jesus ask you one question today—face to face, heart to heart—what would you hope He’d ask? And if He asked, “What do you want me to do for you?” what would rise to your lips before you could filter it—before fear, pride, or past disappointments edited your answer? Some of us ...read more

    God’s perfect timing brings us from slavery to beloved family, granting us adoption, identity, and intimacy with the Father through Christ and the Spirit.

    Friends, pull up a chair and take a deep breath. Some of us arrived today with a smile; some of us arrived with a sigh. The week may have felt heavy, hurried, or hollow. And yet, here we are. What if—right here, right now—this simple moment belongs to God’s perfect timing for your heart? What if ...read more

     | 113 views

    God calls us to see our everyday places and relationships as mission fields, inviting us to share His love and presence wherever we are.

    If we could sit across a kitchen table together this morning, coffee steaming, hearts open, I’d ask you a gentle question: Where did Jesus meet you this week? In a car line with cranky kiddos? In a conference call that felt like it would never end? At a mailbox where the bill looked bigger than the ...read more

    God redeems our deepest failures, transforming brokenness into hope, as seen in Judah’s story, ultimately pointing us to Christ’s unfailing love and redemption.

    Friends, settle your hearts and take a deep breath. Grace has a way of meeting us right where we are—right in the middle of our mess, our mistakes, and our midnight worries. If you’ve ever wondered whether God can weave good from the tangled threads of your past, you’re in the right place. If ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 74 views

    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

     | 55 views

    God responds to bold, faith-filled prayers, meeting us in our struggles and making a way when we trust Him with the impossible.

    Some days saunter. Others sprint. A calendar can feel like a carousel that won’t stop, deadlines whirling and daylight thinning. You’ve felt it, haven’t you? That wish for just a little more light, a few more minutes, a sliver of space to finish the task, to face the fight, to hug the child, to say ...read more

    This sermon urges believers to choose love over judgment, removing obstacles for others and fostering a gentle, supportive community that reflects Christ’s kindness.

    Friends, welcome. Take a breath. Let your shoulders drop a bit. I don’t know what you carried in today—opinions that feel heavy, tensions that won’t unwind, or that low ache that comes from wishing people saw things your way. Church can feel like a crowded dinner table where everyone brings a ...read more
