     | 100 views

    Trusting God in seasons of waiting renews our strength, turning weariness into endurance and hope, as faith refuses to panic amid uncertainty.

    Some of us walked in today with a wait in our bones. We’ve stood in waiting rooms, stared at silent phones, counted ceiling tiles in the midnight hours. We’ve waited for a call back from a doctor, a prodigal to come home, a door to open, a cloud to move. Life can feel like a long line at the DMV of ...read more

    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 sermon emphasizes honest confession, community prayer, and faithful living as the pathway to experiencing God’s healing power and transformative presence together.

    Friends, I’m so glad you’re here. I don’t know what kind of week you’ve had—messy or marvelous, hurried or hopeful—but I do know this: God meets us where we are and loves us too much to leave us there. He meets us in living rooms and hospital rooms, in traffic and in tears, in quiet corners and ...read more

    Why Paul Preached The Gospel

     | 5,446 views

    I want to spend a few minutes tonight looking at this verse, even dissecting it a little bit, to bring it into an applicable understanding for all of us. Because when we read words like “preach,” and we do not have a life calling to stand in a pulpit like myself, we can sometimes shrink back ...read more
