    From Empty To Full Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 10, 2025
     | 112 views

    The story that began with famine ends with fullness—because the Redeemer who restores Naomi’s arms still turns our emptiness into enough.

    (When Grace Finishes the Story) Introduction — The Last Scene Every good story ends where it began—but nothing looks the same. When we opened this book, we found famine, funerals, and tears in Moab. Now we end with a baby in Bethlehem. The story that began with emptiness ends with enough. If ...read more

    Life From The Son

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025
     | 119 views

    Worship is the soul turning toward Christ’s light—adoration that becomes transformation, joy that becomes service, life aligned with divine love.

    The Flower and the Smile: What Worship Really Is There are moments when a question feels too obvious to ask and yet too heavy to ignore. One of those questions has followed me for years: Why does God want our worship? If He is all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-sufficient, why would He want—much ...read more

    A mother's tears.

    A. INTRODUCTION 1. A mother’s tears: nothing so tender, so convicting, so touching and so powerful. Why? ? Because mothers are more tender and gentler than any others ? Because mothers care deeper than any others ? Because all life comes from mothers ? Because mothers have great hopes for the ...read more

    What Would Make Heaven Hell?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 26, 2025
     | 174 views

    Heaven is joy only for hearts transformed by Jesus. Without holiness, God’s presence becomes torment. Christ alone gives us a heart fit for heaven.

    Heaven. The word alone sounds like comfort. Endless peace. Reunions. Rest. Joy without sorrow. Life without loss. Every funeral reminds us of it. Every aching heart hopes for it. If you asked the average person today what they believe about eternity, most would say something like, “Oh, sure, I ...read more

    So Near -- So Far

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 29, 2025
     | 145 views

    Older brothers get lost at home—close to God yet far from His heart—but the Father invites them inside to enjoy His joy.

    INTRODUCTION – MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND Today our nation pauses to remember those who gave their lives for freedom. For many, Memorial Day is a date on the calendar; for me, it is a name. My older brother Bob, now laid to rest in Arlington National Cemetery, reminds me that freedom always carries a ...read more

    When God Sings Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 8, 2025
     | 200 views

    God rejoices over His children with singing; His unending melody of love began at creation, triumphed at Calvary, and continues through redeemed hearts

    1 – The Unthinkable Sound We sing to God every Sabbath. We open our hymnals, follow the notes, and hope our voices find the right pitch before the second verse ends. Singing feels natural to us — after all, that’s what worshippers do. But Zephaniah flips the page. He says God sings. That’s not ...read more

    Here Comes Da Judge Series

     | 144 views

    (The Judge With Nail-Scarred Hands) The Judge bears the scars of our defense; His verdict is mercy, and His justice ends in joy for the redeemed.

    1 · When the Courtroom Comes to Town You’ve seen the memes. The judge walks in, everyone stands, and somewhere in your head a voice says, “Here comes da judge!” But the funny thing is— every one of us already has a court date. Not a traffic ticket, not detention for cutting class, but a date ...read more
