When we hear the word “prophecy,” we often think of predicting the future—but in Scripture, prophecy is far more about proclaiming God’s truth than forecasting events. Prophetic literature invites us to hear God’s heart: calling out injustice, reminding us of His faithfulness, and offering both warning and hope to draw us back to Him.

When the weight of pain feels too heavy to carry and tidy answers fall short, the practice of lament offers us a sacred space to cry out to God with raw honesty. In lament, we find not a denial of suffering, but a faithful way through it—a way that holds grief and hope together, and draws us closer to the God who meets us in our groaning.

Have you ever read a line of poetry that made you stop and feel something deep in your soul? Whether it’s coffee spoon reflections or psalms of praise and lament, poetry has a way of helping us slow down, feel deeply, and connect to the heart of God in a way that goes beyond facts and into something far more personal and profound.

How do you feel about rules—are you a strict follower, a rule-questioner, or somewhere in between? As we explore the law narratives in Scripture, we’ll see that God’s heart behind the law wasn’t about rigid rule-keeping, but about relationship, trust, and our well-being.

From his closest followers to Roman officials and outsiders, Jesus lived, taught, healed, and died in a way that stunned everyone around him. Today, as we reflect on his interaction with Pilate and the centurion at the cross, may we not lose our own sense of awe at who Jesus is and what he came to do—for everyone.

How do you handle disruptions—when life doesn’t go as planned, or when you become the disruption by standing for truth or setting boundaries? Today, we’re looking at a moment when Jesus completely disrupted expectations in his own hometown, and the crowd went from amazed to enraged. As we read Luke 4, let’s consider: how open are we to letting Jesus disrupt our lives with truth, grace, and purpose?

You know how some family resemblances are so strong, you can spot them a mile away? Scripture tells us that Jesus is the exact image of God—His heart, His power, and His presence made visible. Today, we’re looking at how Jesus amazed people not just by what He did, but by who He revealed—the God who heals, teaches, and loves fully.

Jesus amazed people—not just with what He did, but with who He is. In stories like calming the storm in Matthew 8 and walking on water in Matthew 14, we see His unmatched authority over nature itself, reminding us that even the chaos listens to Him. Today, we’re exploring how Jesus’s sovereignty invites us not just to trust Him in the storm, but to worship Him as the one who reigns above it all.

A couple of weeks ago, we explored moments where Jesus was amazed—but today, we’re flipping the script to look at how Jesus amazed others. In a world expecting a militant messiah, Jesus redefined authority through radical love, deep wisdom, and a vision for a Kingdom that turned culture on its head. Let’s dive into the end of the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 7 and rediscover how Jesus continues to astonish us today.

As we wrap up the New Christian Toolkit week, here’s the truth I’ve learned the hard way: following Jesus isn’t about pressure to perform or serve out of obligation—it’s about learning to live from His love. Real faith expresses itself through love, not duty, and when love leads, our service becomes joyful, genuine, and sustainable.

Becoming a Christian is a powerful, life-changing moment—declaring Jesus as Lord, getting baptized, and stepping into a brand-new life. But what comes next can feel overwhelming, especially when the pressure to do can crowd out the joy of simply being His.

Some Bible stories stop you in your tracks—and this one in Matthew 15 is one of them. Jesus's response to a desperate, faithful Gentile woman feels shockingly out of character at first glance, but if we stay with the discomfort, we find a powerful story of persistence, faith, and a boundary-breaking grace.

A man runs to Jesus with urgency and sincerity, asking what he must do to inherit eternal life—but the conversation quickly reveals how tightly his heart is wrapped around his wealth. Jesus isn’t amazed here, but He is moved; and in His challenge to surrender everything, we glimpse the deep connection between faith, sacrifice, and trust in God's provision.
