    Hey Zach, Let's Go Home

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 30, 2025
     | 165 views

    Jesus stops under our tree, calls us by name, enters our desolate house, and fills our deepest loneliness with restoring, transforming grace.

Even before I knew why it gripped me, it spoke to something deep inside — that universal ache, that timeless yearning we all have for home. Not simply a house or a street address, but the place where ...read more

    It's About Time

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 7, 2025
     | 99 views

    God invites us to slow down—to listen before reacting, to speak with grace, and to let His Spirit shape our emotional responses. When we follow James 1:19, our relationships reflect the patient, gentle heart of Jesus.

    There are moments in ministry that arrive quietly, without fanfare or warning, and yet they end up shaping the way you see people, see yourself, and even see God. One of those moments for me came on a day that seemed ordinary. I was on my way to visit a dear church member I hadn’t seen for too ...read more

    A classic sermon by St. Augustine on the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5.

    Chapter 1 1.
