We’ve waited for a call back from a doctor, a prodigal to come home, a door to open, a cloud to move. Life can feel like a long line at the DMV of ...read more

    Welcome, friends. If you walked in today with your shoulders a little slumped, your steps a little slow, take heart. God has a way of meeting us in the middle of our Mondays. He brings hope to hurried schedules and comfort to cluttered hearts. He knows the doctor’s call you didn’t want, the bill ...read more

    This sermon encourages steadfast hope in God’s promises, trusting Him through unseen and uncertain times, and patiently waiting for His faithful fulfillment.

    Friends, take a deep breath. If your week has felt like a thousand tiny cuts—emails unanswered, hopes on hold, prayers that feel like whispers in a windstorm—you are not alone. Hope can feel thin on Thursday afternoons and threadbare by Saturday night. Yet right here, in the everyday ache and the ...read more

    We all face discouragement. So how do we defend against it. This message helps.

    Anyone who has served within the arena of Christian service knows that we are not void or excluded from the pangs of discouragement. It may not always be a problem, but there is always the potential for discouragement. I believe the devil sees to it that this is the case. Discouragement is more ...read more
