    Jesus' victory over temptation gives us hope and shows us that we can overcome too. His humility, obedience, and reliance on God's Word are examples for us to follow.

    Jesus went to John the Baptist to be baptized. John was like, "Wait, you should be baptizing me!" But Jesus insisted. He was showing us how to be humble and obedient. Humility is super important, especially for leaders. Jesus was humble even before His baptism. He gave up everything, even His life, ...read more

    You know how in video games, when your character dies, you can just hit the restart button and start over? Well, that's kind of what happened when we decided to follow Jesus.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 986 views

    Jesus faced temptation in the wilderness after fasting for forty days. Each time Satan tempted Him, Jesus responded with scripture, choosing to rely on God alone. When we face testing in our own lives, we can stand firm in our faith and trust in God's provision.

    Imagine you're in the middle of a desert, no food, no water, and you've been there for 40 days. You're starving, thirsty, and all alone. Suddenly, a guy shows up offering you all the food and water you could ever want, but there's a catch. You have to do something that goes against everything you ...read more

    God often speaks to us in a still small voice, especially in our most vulnerable moments. We need to learn to quiet our minds and hearts to hear Him.

    Today, we're diving into the story of Elijah, a dude who knew a thing or two about tough times. So, picture this: Elijah, fresh off a major win against the prophets of Baal, is now hiding in a cave. He's scared, feeling alone, and probably wondering what's next. God shows up and asks him, 'What are ...read more

    The Bible is like a flashlight that guides us through life. It helps us see clearly where we are, gives us a glimpse of what's to come, and reminds us of what God has done in the past.

    Let's check out Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the Bible. We're just gonna focus on one verse today. The dude who wrote this psalm is saying that God's Word is like a GPS for our lives. It guides us through the dark times. So, let's break down three ways the Bible is like our daily GPS. God's ...read more

    By taking Jesus' yoke upon ourselves, we learn from Him and find rest for our weary souls. This involves surrendering our own ways, embracing His teachings, and submitting to His authority.

    Hey guys, let's chat about something Jesus said that's pretty cool. You know how sometimes life feels like you're carrying a backpack full of bricks?

    Just like Mary, we are chosen to be dwelling places for God. However, we often face obstacles of unworthiness, unbelief, and unwillingness that hinder the Holy Spirit's work in our lives.

    In the Bible, Luke tells us that the Holy Spirit did something amazing in Mary. She became pregnant with Jesus, even though she was a virgin. She was just a regular girl, but she became the mother of Jesus. That's like pulling a rabbit out of a hat, right? And just like Mary, God wants to do ...read more

     | 916 views

    Jesus teaches that many of us are afraid to come into the light because we're scared our bad actions will be exposed. But Jesus didn't come to condemn us, He came to heal us. He searches for us in the darkness and wants us to trust Him, look to Him, and follow Him into His kingdom of light.

    Hey guys! Let's play a game called "What's Your Phobia?" I'll name a fear, and you tell me what it's about. Ready? 1. Arachnophobia is the fear of...? (Spiders) 2. Acrophobia is the fear of...?

    True faith is more than just believing—it's about living out God's Word in our daily lives. Our actions should reflect our faith, showing that we truly follow Christ.

    Hey guys, today we're going to dive into a pretty cool part of the Bible, James 1:17-27. It's all about how faith isn't just about believing in God, but actually living out what He says in our everyday lives. So, let's start with a little object lesson.
