    Contributed by Antonio Manaytay on Nov 1, 2025
     | 214 views

    Humans still matter in an AI world because only we bear God’s image—capable of love, wisdom, and purpose that no machine can ever replicate.

Artificial Intelligence — or AI — can write stories, diagnose diseases, drive cars, and translate languages. Some even wonder: Will AI replace us? Do humans still matter? But ...read more

    This is a message about joy, during Advent. It is about how it is that we can have joy that does not change in the midst of our circumstances, and how we can sustain our awareness of that joy through loving obedience to God.

    God offers unshakeable peace and renewed strength in life’s storms when we bring our fears to Him and trust in His faithful presence.

    Some of us walked in today with our shoulders tight and our phones buzzing. Headlines howl. Schedules stretch. Hearts race.

    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.

Our hearts try to outrun our thoughts, and our thoughts try to ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,902 views

    Peace on earth was what the angels said. Have you ever thought about how misunderstood those words are? What is the peace that the angels referred to? Who are the intended recipients of that peace? How can you have that peace?

    Peace on Earth Luke 2:14 Introduction: They hated and they killed each other.

     | 694 views

    Faith that sits still is not the faith Christ calls us. Transformative faith changes how we react to the world around us. True faith wakes us up, renews our minds, and shines as a light for others to see Christ in us.
