     | 128 views

    God meets us in every pain with real comfort, inviting us to receive his presence and share that comfort with others in their suffering.

    There are weeks when our hearts feel thin. We sit at kitchen tables and stare at cold coffee. We stand in hospital halls and count ceiling tiles. We scroll through old texts, listening for a voice that no longer answers. Grief sits quietly in the corner like an unwelcome guest. Worry hums like an ...read more

    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

    Jesus sees, calls, and transforms the overlooked and broken, offering grace and belonging to all who respond to His invitation, no matter their past.

    Friends, picture it with me: a crowded street in Jericho, hot dust swirling, elbows and shoulders jostling for a glimpse of a traveling Teacher. At the edge of that scene is a man who feels small in more ways than one. He has money that can buy him furniture but not friends, status that sparks ...read more

    Belonging Following Sharing

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 78 views

    Jesus invites us to belong, follow, and share His love, transforming ordinary lives into a mission that draws others into His Kingdom.

    There is a moment near the beginning of every great story where a character hears the invitation that changes everything. A knock at the door. A stranger walking into view. A whispered challenge: “Come and see.” For Simon and Andrew, that moment came while they were doing the most ordinary thing ...read more

     | 107 views

    Jesus confronts anything that blocks true worship, clears space for outsiders to encounter God, and invites wholehearted praise that honors the Father.

    INTRODUCTION Palm Sunday tends to paint a very specific picture in our minds. Children waving palm branches. A gentle Jesus seated on a humble donkey, smiling, receiving cheers like a beloved hometown hero. We imagine sunshine, hope in the air, families lining the streets. It feels like the ...read more

    Contributed by Darrell Jones on Jul 5, 2005
    based on 46 ratings
     | 11,079 views

    This particular Psalm has been called the "Great Hallelujah Psalm" It is an invitation for all to become active in the praise of God. Let’s examine some of the benefits of corporate praise.

    The writer of this Psalm used the phrase "Praise Him" nine times, we also find the word "Praise" used an additional four times in this writing. There must be some significant or special reason for the instruction to praise to be given. Is it possible that God wants praise to be not only a personal ...read more

    God’s power and presence remain active today, inviting us to trust Him in hardship, pray boldly, and expect miracles even in ordinary moments.

    Some days faith feels thin as fog. You stand at the kitchen sink with a coffee cup and a knot in your stomach. You sit in the waiting room and study the floor tile as if it could talk back. You lie awake and watch the red glow of the clock turn minutes into miles. In moments like these, we need ...read more

    This message invites believers to respond to Christ’s call to be with Him, to preach, and to have power, rather than just crowd Him when we have a need.

    The Power of His Presence (Mark 3:7-19) Several years ago, on New Year’s Day, a beautiful float in the Tournament of Roses parade suddenly sputtered and quit. It was out of gas.

     | 7,065 views

    Sermon compares postmodern "Stairway to Nowhere" to Jacob's Stairway to Heaven in Genesis which climbs to God. Postmodernism climbs nowhere toward relativism w/o universal truth. Christianity climbs to God, the author and anchor of TRUTH.

    Have you ever noticed how the family refrigerator becomes a gallery of grace? Smudged fingerprints. Crayon drawings. Photos held up by a magnet that looks like a banana. Report cards with coffee stains. A wedding invitation tucked next to a grocery list. That door tells a story. We want to belong. ...read more
