    >> The Reach The human heart was made for connection—with God, with one another, with meaning that outlives the dust. And yet everywhere you go, from the narrow alleys of Karachi to the busy malls of Kuwait City, you can feel the same invisible tension pulling at people’s souls. Everyone ...read more

     | 118 views

    Golden Calf idolatry reveals how cherished sin destroys fellowship, while confession opens the way for God’s mercy, forgiveness, and restoration.

    There are moments in Scripture that are so disturbing, so uncomfortable, that we are tempted to read past them quickly. We would rather not linger there. We would prefer safer passages—stories of deliverance, victory, faith rewarded. But the Word of God does not allow us that luxury. There are ...read more

    God invites us to move forward with Him, leaving the past behind and focusing on Christ, trusting His presence and grace for every step.

    There’s a reason your heart quickens whenever you sense a fresh start. New mercies. New morning. New possibilities.

    Friends, pull up a chair and take a deep breath. Some of us walked in today with hearts humming like a racing engine, others with batteries barely blinking. Some of us feel God’s nearness; others wonder if our prayers are bouncing off the ceiling. Can I encourage you? You are not here by accident. ...read more

    Jesus meets our deepest needs with forgiveness and healing, responding to faith—both ours and others’—with love greater than we can imagine.

    If you listen closely, you can almost hear the shuffle of sandals and the rustle of robes in that little house in Capernaum. The room is stuffed shoulder-to-shoulder with people who showed up hungry for more than bread. They want words that mend, a voice that understands, a touch that makes all ...read more

    Trusting God means obeying Him even when the path is unclear; true faith is shown through daily, courageous steps of obedience rooted in His promises.

    Some mornings feel like a fog has rolled in and parked on the path right in front of you. You can see your feet, maybe the next step, yet the road ahead stays hidden. Bills stack up, doctors call back, kids cry, doors close, and the heart whispers, “Lord, what do I do now?” In moments like these, ...read more

    Some of us walked in today with a quiet question humming beneath the surface: How much longer can I keep this up?

    Jesus gives pastors as a loving gift to His church, calling us to honor, support, and pray for them as they shepherd and serve us.

    Some of the greatest gifts Jesus gives to His church have names and faces, coffee-stained sermon notes, calloused knees, and tender hearts. They stand at hospital bedsides, whisper prayers in empty sanctuaries, answer phone calls after midnight, and show up again on Sunday with a smile that says, ...read more
