     | 103 views

    Jesus calls ordinary, willing people to surrender and follow Him, promising His presence as we share His love and grace in our everyday lives.

    Friends, pull up a chair and breathe for a moment. The coffee might be cooling and the calendar might be crowded, but the King of heaven has a word for hearts like ours. He speaks to people who are still a little wobbly from the whirlwind of life, people who worship and sometimes wobble, people who ...read more

     | 158 views

    God meets us in our lowest places, lifts us with His grace, and restores us with lovingkindness, inviting us to live in grateful trust.

    Have you ever felt like life lowered you into a pit and then took the ladder away? The walls are slick with worry, the floor is sticky with regret, and every echo from the past seems louder than hope. David knew that feeling. He wrote like a man who had mud on his boots and a song in his mouth. In ...read more

    The Promise Is Received By Faith PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 81 views

    God’s promises are guaranteed by grace, not our strength; faith trusts and obeys even when we doubt, because grace secures what God has spoken.

    Some days faith feels like a full sail on a steady sea. Other days it feels like a flickering candle cupped in the wind. I think of you who walked in today carrying quiet questions. You who love Jesus and still wonder how His promises stand tall in a world that leans hard. You who have prayed for ...read more

     | 145 views

    Trusting God at life’s obstacles, we consecrate ourselves in prayer and obedience, expecting His presence to lead us and perform wonders beyond our ability.

    Some of us walked in today with a river in front of us. A challenge that feels swollen and strong, a problem that pushes against the banks of our courage. Maybe it’s a diagnosis that rattles you, a relationship that drains you, or a decision that confuses you. You’ve stood at the edge, heart ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 96 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

    based on 3 ratings
     | 108 views

    God’s Word provides steady guidance and comfort in life’s uncertainties, offering just enough light for each step as we trust and obey Him.

    There’s a memory some of us share. The wind howled, the house sighed, and then—click—darkness. The power cut out, and every familiar hallway turned into a maze. You reached for a drawer, found an old flashlight, and with a small circle of light, you made your way. Not floodlights. Not daylight. ...read more

    God’s grace gives us hope for the future, assurance of His love, and purpose for today as we wait expectantly for Christ’s return.

    Welcome, friends. If you walked in today with your shoulders a little slumped, your steps a little slow, take heart. God has a way of meeting us in the middle of our Mondays. He brings hope to hurried schedules and comfort to cluttered hearts. He knows the doctor’s call you didn’t want, the bill ...read more

    God’s constant presence brings hope and steadiness in our darkest, most anxious moments, reminding us that His light always shines and overcomes.

    Some of us walked in today with a quiet ache we can’t quite name. Sleep came late. Worry came early. Headlines are heavy, homes feel hurried, and hearts can feel hollowed out by the constant ache of a hard week. We carry questions to our pews: Will the light hold? Will hope last? Does God really ...read more

    The sermon emphasizes turning to God in every circumstance through prayer, praise, confession, and community, trusting that sincere prayer brings real change and healing.

    Friends, welcome. If your week has been full of sighs, or full of songs, you’re in the right place. If you carry aches that have no easy answers, or blessings that make you grin in the car at a red light, you’re in the right place. James talks to folks like us—tired teachers and young parents, ...read more

    Live each day in a way that reflects the gospel, showing unity, courage, and Christlike character in every aspect of ordinary life.

    Friends, grace to you. Some weeks feel like a blur of keys, calendars, and carpool lines. We know the drill: the alarm rings, the coffee brews, the inbox fills, and our souls whisper, “Lord, make this count.” In the hum of everyday life—school runs and staff meetings, grocery aisles and garage ...read more
