When we encounter Jesus, His presence changes us from the inside out. We are no longer who we once were—we are made new, restored, and deeply loved. In Him, we find healing, purpose, and the joy of being called His friend.
As followers of Jesus, our journey often calls us to pause and reconnect with Christ. To be truly connected to Him means more than knowing about Him—it’s about relating deeply to what He has done for us. It’s about reflecting on His sacrifice, His grace, and His love that transforms our hearts. When we draw near to Him, we find strength, peace, and purpose, rooted in the unshakable truth of who He is and all He’s accomplished on our behalf.
Have you ever brought something home from the store, only to set the instructions aside because you thought you knew how to put it together? Imagine if we did that with God's instructions for our lives. When we follow the guidance He's given us, we open ourselves to the blessings and abundance He promises.
Often in life, we find ourselves overwhelmed by the daily struggles and challenges, unable to see the bigger picture—much like not being able to see the forest through the trees. However, this message will remind us of the profound truth that when we place our trust in God, He has a divine plan for each of us. Be uplifted as we explore how to find and embrace God's purpose and plan for our lives. Let this be a time of renewal and reassurance in His unfailing love and divine wisdom.
In this message, we explore the unique supremacy and unparalleled nature of God as described in Scripture, emphasizing His singular authority and the futility of idols. Join us as we dive into the profound implications of worshipping the one true God and how this foundational truth shapes our faith and daily lives.
We're reminded of God's unwavering faithfulness, like a garment that envelops us, like a parent’s teaching that guides us with love and compassion. God’s steadfast faithfulness guides us in every moment, anchoring us in peace.
The word love is most associated with romantic feelings, but what has to be remembered in the season of Lent when we focus on Jesus is that we are talking about agape love— sacrificial love that gives completely for another, a love that never lets go or changes. Lent becomes a time when as we draw closer to Christ and closer to one another in a love that lasts forever.
Answer this question: “On what does your heart dwell?” Is it family and friends? Career or vocation? How about home and cars? Join us this week as we dive into the profound truth that our hearts gravitate towards what we treasure most, uncovering the path to aligning our desires with what God desires. Maybe it’s time for a heart alignment.
Psalm 139 is like a heartfelt song that shows how close we can get to God. It talks about how God knows everything about us, is always with us, and loves us unconditionally. This Sunday, the sermon will remind us that we can enter God's presence anytime and experience His comforting and guiding presence in our lives, which is truly amazing!
Forgiveness can be one of the hardest things you have to do on your journey to growth and peace. When we hold on to hurt, pain, resentment, and anger it harms us far more than it harms the offender. Forgiveness frees us to live in the present. Forgiving yourself can be the hardest of all. Everyone makes mistakes and even worse, intentionally chooses the wrong way. But God’s love for us is overwhelming and covers a multitude of errors.
