    God draws near to us in our loneliness, offering peace and hope by pouring His love into our hearts through Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

    Some nights feel longer than others. The house is quiet, the phone is still, and the ache of an empty chair at the table can sound like thunder in the soul. Bills stack up, worries pile high, and even in a crowded room it’s easy to feel hidden in plain sight. We smile for photos, but the heart can ...read more

    True gratitude is not dependent on circumstances but is a daily response to God’s faithfulness, shaping our hearts and sustaining us through every season.

    Friends, some weeks feel like a kaleidoscope of errands and emotions—school drop-offs and late invoices, texts we forgot to answer, headlines we wish we hadn’t read. Yet right in the middle of muddy shoes by the door, burnt toast on the counter, and the ache we can’t name, there is a whisper from ...read more

    God abundantly refreshes and enriches our lives when we pray, turning our dry seasons into fruitful harvests through His faithful provision and grace.

    Some of us walked in today feeling like cracked earth—stretched thin, thirsty, waiting for a cloud to gather overhead. You’ve known seasons like that. Maybe you’re in one now.

    God invites our weary, honest selves to find true rest in His presence, offering comfort and strength for every burden we carry.

    There’s a hush that comes when a roomful of tired hearts hears a kind voice. I believe that’s what this moment can be—a hush for hurried souls, a pause for people who have given their best and still feel thin, a holy breath for those who woke up weary. Some of us are carrying backpacks no one else ...read more

    While our souls do indeed go to heaven when we die, this is by no means the end of it. The ultimate goal is the resurrection. This is what scripture teaches. Why has the church drifted from this teaching? This sermon seeks to answer that as well as

    Sometimes, In these later years especially, I think that we Christians have spiritualized what we believe a little too much.
