Blessed Are the Poor in Spirit It’s been a while since I’ve said this out loud, but we really do want our ceiling to be their floor. There is always more room to invite God into your life. You can have as much of Him as you want—as much as you are willing to receive. You are the deciding factor. That’s why we nurture our hearts, protect them, and guard them. We’re saying, “I want as much of God as I can receive.” Our Ceiling, Their Floor Jesus said the works that He did, we w

The Attitudes of Being Reflections from Luke 12 and the Beatitudes We’ve been walking through the Gospels on purpose, and it’s been fun. You start seeing things you didn’t notice before. One of those places is Luke 12. Someone in the crowd calls out to Jesus: “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.” Jesus doesn’t settle the family dispute. Instead He says, “Friend, who made Me a judge or arbitrator over you?” Then He turns to the whole group: “Take care

When Temptation Comes: The Father’s Affirmation and the Mind of Christ There has to be a time for prayer. There has to be a time to sit with the Father. How much more important is it for us to walk in what God has called us to do by taking time in the secret place—to go to that deserted place, to pray and to rest? In that place of prayer we are not only asking. We are enjoying God. Enjoying His life. Enjoying His Word. Last week we finished looking at Jesus being baptized

Fulfilling All Righteousness Imagine if I took a Bible and started ripping pages out—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—shredding them right in front of you. You’d probably think I was crazy. And you’d be right. I’m not going to do that. But sit with the thought for a second. What if those four books were gone? You’d still have the Old Testament. You’d still have Acts and the letters of Paul and Peter. All of it good. All of it true. But without the life of Jesus modeled in His ow

Stirring Up First Love: Falling in Love with Jesus of the Scriptures It’s always amazing how the Scripture connects and comes together. The beginning of Galatians 4 speaks right into what the Lord has been stirring in me: “But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.” (Galatians 4:4-5) And then verse 6 hits me every time: “And because yo

Stirring Up First Love Returning to the Red Letters I got one of the best compliments last Sunday. A lady walked up and said, “You know what you did? You stirred up first love in us. We’ve kind of felt like we lost that here.” That hit me deep. Because that is the cry of my heart—and our heart as a church. I want people to see Jesus, fall in love with who He really is, and experience Him. Not a version of Him. Not a tradition about Him. The real Jesus of the Bible—His words a

God wants you well because of His compassionate nature, His desire for abundant life for His creation, and his loving character. Proverbs 4:20-22 says, "My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life to those that find them, and health to all their flesh.” The Hebrew word for "health" in verse 22 is "medicine." God's Word is medicine to all our flesh. What good would

In a recent gathering, our pastor shared a powerful message about the beauty of community, the importance of fellowship, and the need for balance in our walk with God. What stood out most was a simple but profound picture: the difference between the “Spa Church” and the “Fitness Church.” The Gift of Confirmation Through Community Have you ever had the Lord speak something to you, only to have it miraculously confirmed through someone else? That’s one of the greatest joys of b
