Return To A Listening Heart

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 22, 2025

A pastor’s burden exposes spiritual deafness in the church and calls believers and leaders alike to listen, repent, realign, and return to Christ.

God spoke through Jeremiah to a people who were ...read more

Before You Say Amen

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 22, 2025

Prayer becomes heavy when it turns into performance. Jesus calls us back to honest, relational prayer—where pretending ends and real communion with God begins.

They would defend it without hesitation. They know it matters. They know it’s essential. They know it’s supposed ...read more
