    Is There Not A Cause?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 5, 2026
     | 262 views

    God’s word is never idle—it creates purpose and calls for response. Like David, we are not defined by the roles others assign us, but by the word God has spoken over our lives. When that word becomes a cause, faith moves from observation to obedience.

    As David stood in the Valley of Elah, the battle between Israel and the Philistines was nearing a breaking point. For forty days, the giant Goliath had stepped forward to issue his challenge, defying the armies of the living God. And for forty days, no one answered him. The silence was not caused ...read more

    Mourning To Morning: Yes—it’s Ok

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 5, 2025
     | 352 views

    Life leaves us with memories—some warm us, and some wound us. If we spend our time looking back, we risk missing the new thing God is doing right in us.

    — THE PROBLEM: WHY WE KEEP LOOKING BACK Life leaves us with memories. Some of them warm us. Some of them wound us. And some of them quietly shape us long after the moment has passed. Most of us don’t notice how much time we spend replaying our lives. We replay conversations we wish had gone ...read more

     | 3,025 views

    Elijah (meaning “My God is Yahweh”) challenges the 450 prophets of baal (and other prophets) in a “my God, your gods face-off". Like Elijah, teaming up with God when facing battles in life will be a win-win situation.

    STORY PRELUDE Elijah confronts King Ahab and challenges baal. He sets the basic rule of the face-off, that is to use woods and a bull to be consumed by their gods as they call them. Though he seems alone, Elijah is on the offense. In his turn to call his God, he prepares the Lord’s altar using ...read more
