True change doesn’t start with what we do—it starts with how we think. This week, we’re exploring how to break free from the patterns of this world by “renewing the mind.” Are your thoughts leading you toward peace or keeping you stuck? Join us as we reflect on the prayer of Psalm 139:23: “Search me, […]

Our words have the power to build up or tear down. This week, we explore why such a small part of the body carries so much weight. How can we use our voices for healing instead of hurt? Join us as we pray the words of Psalm 141:3: “Set a guard, O Lord, over my […]

“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it” (Psalm 24:1). This Sabbath, we’re celebrating Earth Day by gathering at the Communion table. It’s a powerful reminder that the bread and the cup are gifts from the soil, sanctified by grace. Let’s honor the Creator by becoming better gardeners of His creation.

Easter is […]

Whether he was writing a complex mass for a cathedral or a simple exercise for a student, he viewed his work as a direct service to the Creator. This sermon challenges us […]

We often mistake freedom for the absence of rules, but biblical freedom is the presence of clarity. True liberty is the quiet confidence that comes from knowing who you are, whose you are, and how to live.

What if the most important person in the Good Samaritan parable isn’t the Samaritan? We all know the story. The Samaritan crosses ethnic lines, risks his safety, and shows radical mercy. He’s the hero. But what about the innkeeper? The Samaritan brings the wounded man to an inn and says, “Look after him.” The innkeeper […]

Lent isn’t a guilt trip; it’s a wake-up call. As we bridge the end of Black History Month and the beginning of Lent, we explore the “heresy of waking up.” Drawing on the wisdom of Maya Angelou and the African American spiritual, we’re rediscovering Lent not as deprivation, but as a radical tool for honesty.
