Day 33 of 40 Days
Read Daily Devotional Overwhelming feelings of joy can be a response to the success after a hard struggle or the answer to a prayer. David, in this case, expressed his gratitude in praise to God who had saved him from the clutches of his enemies that threatened his life, and, specifically, from the hands of […]
Godly Perspective on Life’s Frustrations Mark 6:30–44
Life rarely goes according to plan. What happens when your schedule gets interrupted, your expectations fall short, or your resources seem too small? In Mark 6:30–44, we see Jesus turn an unexpected interruption into one of the greatest miracles of His ministry — feeding 5,000 with five loaves and two fish. This week, we’ll be challenged to gain a Godly perspective on life’s frustrations:
• Do we respond with frustration or compassion?
• Do we see problems or opportunities?
• Do we focus on what we don’t have — or what we do have in God’s hands?
Jesus helps us face fear with faith
Storms in life can stir up fear, anxiety, and uncertainty. The disciples experienced this firsthand while struggling on the water in the dark. Yet in their moment of fear, Jesus came to them with a simple but powerful message: “Take courage… don’t be afraid.” This week we’ll look at how Jesus helps us face fear […]

Read Daily Devotional I remember vividly looking at the clock on the wall; it was 5 AM. The pain was unbearable. I could barely breathe, and what little strength I had left was quickly leaving my body. The nurse turned towards me and said, “It will still be a couple of hours,” and as my […]

Read Daily Devotional Psalm 90 is a prayer of Moses and it offers important insights for us regarding how brief, precarious, and God-dependent human life is. As Moses prays in verses 13-17, he commits himself and the Israelites to God, and pleads for three things: First, Moses asks for reconciliation with God. Why? Because in […]
Day 30 of 40 Days
Read Daily Devotional Psalm 9 is a triumphal hymn, in which we see God as Conqueror. It’s believed that in David’s day, it may have been written in reference to his victory against Goliath. In our modern-day application, we can see it as Jesus’s Victory over Satan. When we look at the first two verses, […]
It’s a Heart Issue | What’s Really Inside Matters
It’s easy to focus on appearances—but God is focused on the heart.
In Mark 7, Jesus confronts the idea that outward behavior makes someone holy. The religious leaders had all the right rules and traditions, but their hearts were far from God. Jesus makes it clear: true change doesn’t start on the outside—it starts within.
This Sunday, we’ll dive into what it really means to follow Christ from the inside out:
• Are we focused on appearances or transformation?
• Are we following man-made rules or God’s truth?
• What’s really flowing out of our hearts?
Worship along with us online as we sing This Is Amazing Grace, Whom Shall I Fear, King of Kings, What a Beautiful Name and Holy Spirit.
Tune in live and invite someone to join you who may need some encouragement!

Read Daily Devotional On December 11, 1979, Mother Teresa, the “Saint of the Gutters,” was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Accepting the award, she reminded us: “It is not enough for us to say, ‘I love God, but I do not love my neighbor,’” since in dying on the Cross, God had “[made] Himself the […]
Day 28 of 40 Days
Read Daily Devotional David calls out to the Lord while in the “depths”. What are the depths of life? I think of the middle of an ocean — a place where the water’s depth goes down until one can’t see the sun and stretches wide enough that the shore can’t be seen. The depths of […]
