Gifts, risk, and the return of the King
No matter how weary or uncertain we feel at year’s end, Christ’s presence and strength sustain us and give hope for every day ahead.
Some of us count the days on the calendar with a sigh. Others count with a smile. Many of us do both. The year has been a quilt of bright patches and frayed threads—birthdays and funerals, milestones and setbacks, answered prayers and unanswered questions. The days have left their marks. Your ...read more
Scripture: Philippians 4:13
Topics: End Program, Church
God uses our pain and trials not to harm us, but to grow our hope, maturity, and fruitfulness for His greater purpose.
Friend, I’m glad you’re here. Some of us walked in today with a quiet ache that doesn’t let go. The diagnosis was unexpected. The stack of bills looks tall. The silence in the house feels louder than it used to. Life can sting. Yet God meets us right in the middle of the mess and whispers a word ...read more
Scripture: Romans 8:18, James 1:2-4, John 15:2
Topics: Preparation, Process, Promise
God’s grace meets us in our weakness, offering love, strength, and acceptance, empowering us to face life’s struggles with hope and courage.
If grace had a face, I think it would be smiling at you today. Not a plastic grin, but the kind that crinkles the eyes and warms the room. The kind you long to see when the week has been heavy, the bank account thin, and your heart even thinner. Maybe you woke up with that familiar knot of worry. ...read more
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9
Topics: Grace
God invites us to courageously step into His promises, trusting His faithfulness and love, rather than hesitating in fear or doubt.
Have you ever stood on a threshold with your hand on the knob, heart racing, knowing there’s goodness inside but still hesitating to step in? Maybe it’s a fresh calling, a new season, a second chance. Maybe it’s peace after a long storm, or hope after a hard night. God brings us to thresholds. He ...read more
Scripture: Deuteronomy 1:8
Topics: Perseverance, Resilience
Because Christ is enthroned above all, believers can live with confidence, purpose, and authority, trusting their secure position and God’s ongoing work in their lives.
Friends, can we take a breath together and remember who our God is? He is the Lifter of our heads, the Steady Hand in our storms, the Shepherd who knows every scar and every sigh. Some of us walked in with tired feet and tender hearts, and the week has felt louder than our faith. But the Lord is ...read more
Scripture: Ephesians 1:24-25
Topics: New Life, Exaltation
True joy and belonging are found in knowing Jesus personally, sharing fellowship with God, and experiencing His life-giving presence in everyday moments.
Have you ever noticed how the best news often arrives in the simplest package—a note on the counter, a text from a friend, a voice that says, “I’m here”? First John opens like that. It’s an old apostle’s steady hand reaching for your shoulder, a pastor’s calm voice speaking to a crowded room and a ...read more
Scripture: 1 John 1:1-4
Topics: Joyful Living, Lord's Joy
God meets us in our need by giving Himself—our Counselor, Strength, and Father—inviting us to bring every burden to Him in prayer.
Friends, welcome. If your heart feels hurried, your calendar crowded, your mind a little muddled, you’re in the right place. The Lord meets us here—where questions hum and worries tug. Long before our schedules became so loud and life so layered, God gave us a name to whisper in weary seasons: a ...read more
Scripture: Isaiah 9:6
Topics: Jesus' Names, Messiah Titles
Jesus teaches us to forgive. This is important because (1) forgiveness releases us from bondage, (2) gives us the freedom to grow, and (3) leaves room for God’s work.
We have a forgiving God. We receive His forgiveness purely on GRACE. We pay no penance; we did no work to justify forgiveness. In fact, we cannot promise we will always stay RIGHT. We are forgiven because of Christ. We forgive because we have been forgiven. So what does these verses mean? ...read more

Scripture: Romans 12:1-3
Denomination: Evangelical/Non-Denominational
Advent is a time of preparation and repentance, and it turns out that Joseph’s story has a few things to teach about those very things.
Joseph…the husband of Mary. The Bible doesn’t really tell us that much about Joseph. Legend has it that he was an elderly widow. Supposedly that explains why he was able to honor Mary’s virginity during the first months of their marriage and why he quietly disappears from the narrative sometime ...read more

December 9, 2001 1Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints? 2Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 3Know ye not that we shall ...read more

God made a promise to Abraham. It was a promise of His grace and blessing. Each one of us are given the opportunity to turn from the ways of the world to a life of grace and blessing.
Introduction: When I was a young boy growing up I used to play games. I would join my cousins in the evening and we would play for what seemed like hours, pretending to be someone or something that we were not. It is said that the Hypocrite professes to be what he does not practice, while the ...read more
