1 Samuel...

King Saul’s life holds a powerful mirror to the struggles we all face with fear. Sometimes the greatest obstacles are not obvious sins but more subtle anxieties, doubts, and worries that quietly entangle our hearts. In this sermon, we examine Saul’s story, peeling back the layers to reveal how fear—whether of enemies, people, or losing what we hold dear—can become a devastating force in our decision-making and spiritual walk.

Skipping to the “good part” may seem tempting, but doing so robs us of the wisdom and intimacy found in the hard seasons. In the book of Ruth, we journey through four distinct spiritual seasons: suffering, healing & gleaning, obedience, and redemption. Each one plays a vital role in shaping the testimony and in preparing the heart for restoration.

Remember that God doesn’t waste anything, including pain. The gleaning season, whe...

Motherhood often feels like a nonstop evaluation of what you do or manage in a day, especially around Mother’s Day. But we are reminded that, just like Hannah, a mother’s identity is rooted in being seen and loved by God—not in her endless tasks or visible results.

Hannah's pivotal moment was when she opened her heart to God and was reminded of her worth, not just when her prayer was answered. This Mother’s Day, discover deeper comf...

In Judges 6–8, Gideon goes from hiding in fear to leading a miraculous victory over the Midianites, but not because he was strong, confident, or capable. In fact, he was the opposite. When God called him, Gideon saw himself as the least in the weakest clan. Yet God responded, “I will be with you, and you will strike down all the Midianites, leaving none alive.” 

The story shows how God gradually increased Gideon's faith, highli...

We are all wired for worship, whether we acknowledge it or not. Romans 12:1-2 shows that true worship is a life laid down before God, shaped by His mercy and love. However, left to our own devices, we naturally begin to worship whatever captures our attention. This misdirected worship never satisfies because it was never meant to.

True worship, however, is an outward expression of a heart deeply connected to the Father. It reflects ...

The decisions we make shape our lives, but none compare to the choice to follow Jesus. We often overlook the spiritual impact of our choices, but the gospel urges us to recognize the eternal importance of saying "yes" to Christ.

This isn’t about fear-based religion or just avoiding hell. The heart of the gospel is relationship—life with Jesus, now and forever. Choosing Him means stepping into a love that defeats death and a grace th...

Love is the most powerful force on Earth, yet it's often misunderstood because we view it in selfish ways. It's easy to love when it's convenient, but Jesus calls us to a higher standard—love that serves others, even when it's difficult. That kind of love we’re called to live isn’t possible on our own; we need the help of the Holy Spirit to love like Jesus. Yet that cost leads to transformation, not just for the one loved, but for ...

After the fall of Jericho, Achan defied God's command by secretly concealing forbidden treasure. His private sin led to public loss and the death of others.

Contrast that with Rahab—her faith, risky and visible, led to life not just for herself but for her family. Both stories show that our choices can affect others and shape the legacies we leave behind. 

Like Rahab, someone must stand up as a curse-breaker. Jesus did this for...

Your past will throw everything it has at you, but God’s future for you is greater. Stop looking back and step forward into the life He has prepared for you.

Like the Israelites, we sometimes feel trapped by our past, fearing that we’ll never fully escape its grip. But here’s the truth—when God delivers you, His power leads you forward. It might try to chase you down, but it cannot overcome the One who goes before you.

Is Jesus truly your One Thing, or just one of many? A life built on Him stands firm through every storm. Listen and allow Him to be your firm foundation.

— 

Many claim Jesus is important, but is He truly the foundation of your life? If Jesus is just one of many priorities, your faith will waver when trials come. But when He is your One Thing—the unshakable center of your life—everything else falls into place and this leads to se...

Are fears and doubts holding you back from God's promises? Sometimes the "what" isn't the problem—it's the "who." Dive into overcoming unbelief today!

"Why did God send the plagues?" They weren’t just punishments—they were declarations of His power over all creation. Each plague struck at Egypt’s gods, proving that Yahweh alone is Lord.

— 

The ten plagues were not random disasters; they were strategic acts of divine authority. Each one progressively dismantled the Egyptian belief system, proving their gods powerless before the God of Israel. Water turned to blood mocked the Ni...

God invites you to come, but on His terms. The Bible is clear—when God calls, He expects obedience. Are you showing up the way He asks or the way you prefer?

— 

The burning bush wasn’t just a moment for Moses—it is an invitation to step into God’s presence and be transformed. Just like Moses, many of us have "shoes" on that can keep us from encountering God. These things—from significance and control to complacency and confusion...

God always completes what He sets out to do. A word from Him fuels your faith and prepares you for what’s to come. Will you trust Him in the waiting?

— 

Joseph received a powerful vision from God, but his journey was anything but immediate. Betrayed by his brothers, falsely accused, and forgotten in prison, he had every reason to doubt. Yet, God's promise was still unfolding.

A word from God isn’t just for you—it’s for those arou...
