    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
     | 101 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

    God intimately sees, hears, and cares for us in every trial, offering steadfast love, comfort, and deliverance to the brokenhearted and trusting.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile that hides a storm. Bills on the table, biopsy on the calendar, battles in the soul. Others carry a quiet ache—an empty chair at dinner, a friendship gone cold, a door that never opened. If you feel overlooked, unheard, unseen—hear this: the God who flung ...read more

     | 76 views

    Jesus offers his own unshakeable peace to calm our anxious hearts, inviting us to trust his presence instead of giving in to fear or panic.

    Some days the headlines hit like hail on a tin roof. Bills stack up, calendars crowd in, and our hearts hum with hurry. We lie awake staring at the ceiling fan, counting worries like sheep that refuse to sleep. We wonder if peace is a myth, a mirage on the horizon of a hurried life. Is there a calm ...read more

     | 129 views

    Our words and promises carry deep consequences; God calls us to speak carefully, obey courageously, and trust His grace even when we fail.

    Friend, your words carry weight. Promises shape people. Vows mark moments. We know the power of a whispered “I do,” the gravity of “I’ll be there,” and the ache of “I’m sorry.” Words can build bridges, and words can burn them. Have you ever wished you could take a sentence back? Have you ever felt ...read more

    God’s presence brings peace and joy in life’s storms; we can trust Him, rejoice, and find hope even amid trials and uncertainty.

    Friend, if your week has felt like a hailstorm of headlines and heartaches, you’re in good company here. God gathers the weary and the worried and whispers hope. He knows about the tightness in your chest at 2 a.m., the text that didn’t come, the bill that did, the doctor’s words you keep ...read more

     | 69 views

    God continually leads us in victory, spreading Christ’s transforming presence through us, even in weakness, so that others experience the hope and fragrance of grace.

    Some weeks feel like we’re pushing a grocery cart with a wobbly wheel through a crowded store—everything leaning sideways, squeaking loudly, and refusing to go where we want. And yet, here we are, gathered in grace, held by the hand of a God who never loses a battle and never misplaces a child. ...read more

    True satisfaction comes not from physical needs but from seeking God through prayer and His Word, which alone nourishes and sustains our deepest hunger.

    There’s a kind of hunger that a full pantry can’t fix. You know the feeling. You stand in front of an open refrigerator—food everywhere—yet your soul still feels thin. Our bodies crave calories; our hearts crave a word from God. In a world of buzzing phones and bulging schedules, the deepest ache ...read more

    The sermon urges us to open our hearts to God’s Word, allowing Him to transform us so we bear lasting spiritual fruit in our lives.

    Good morning, friends. I’m so glad we get to sit under the kindness of Jesus together today. If you could see my heart right now, you’d notice both a hunger and a hush—hunger for God’s voice and a hush that says, “Speak, Lord. I’m listening.” Isn’t that what we all long for? A steady word in a ...read more

    Make sure your signs are signed off by God and not a scammer.

    I started looking through my sermons in progress and came across this one I started in 2018. Little did I know that six years later that I would be speaking often against false prophets marking them as the Word commands. Indeed, I had other issues to deal with for a long time and just shook my ...read more
