    Restore Me To Joy

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 10, 2026
     | 99 views

    Revival begins not when we try harder, but when we see God as gracious and allow the joy of salvation to be restored.

    There is a difference between being lost and being tired. And if we don’t recognize that difference, we will keep speaking the wrong word to the wrong people. Many people in church today are not lost. They are not rebellious. They are not angry at God. They are not trying to run away. They are ...read more

     | 89 views

    Jesus calls ordinary, flawed people to follow Him, offering transforming grace and acceptance that overcomes our failures and invites us into a new story.

    If you’ve ever felt passed over, mislabeled, or just plain tired, take heart. Jesus has a way of walking into ordinary places and turning them into holy ground. He steps into tax booths and kitchens, into cubicles and carpools, into hospital rooms and waiting rooms. He sees what others miss. He ...read more

    God uses our pain and trials not to harm us, but to grow our hope, maturity, and fruitfulness for His greater purpose.

    Friend, I’m glad you’re here. Some of us walked in today with a quiet ache that doesn’t let go. The diagnosis was unexpected. The stack of bills looks tall. The silence in the house feels louder than it used to. Life can sting. Yet God meets us right in the middle of the mess and whispers a word ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 86 views

    The sermon calls believers to courageous, costly obedience, trusting God’s sovereignty even when outcomes are uncertain, inspired by Esther’s example of sacrificial faith.

    There’s a holy hush that falls over a room when courage walks in. Not the loud kind that shouts to be seen, but the quiet courage that prays in whispers and stands when knees are weak. We know this courage. We’ve asked for it in hospital hallways. We’ve reached for it at midnight when the house is ...read more

     | 87 views

    The sermon urges us to personally confess Jesus as the Christ, surrendering all to Him, and finding true life and identity in wholehearted allegiance to Him.

    There are questions that settle the soul. They steady the heart in a world of headlines and hurry. One question rises above the noise like a bell in a storm. Jesus asks it with gentle authority and unshakable kindness: “Who do you say that I am?” We carry many names on our backs—titles, labels, ...read more

    The aim of the Book of Proverbs is to help us acquire and apply God’s wisdom to the decisions and activities of daily life. The starting place in becoming a wise guy (or woman) is to treat God with reverence and awe.

    Alienated from the life of God, strangers to the covenants and the promises, we needed help! (#20 in the Every Spiritual Blessing series)

    “Aliens”. I wonder how many different pictures pop into people’s heads these days when they hear that word.
