Evangelism begins on our knees. Ephesians 6 reminds us that prayer is not a side note—it’s the battleground for souls. We’re called to pray intentionally and biblically, lifting others before God with purpose and compassion. Effective prayer flows from a heart settled before the Lord, even when it’s sowing through seasons of sorrow. And we don’t give up—persistence matters. We pray always, stay sp... Read More

A popular book on the Holy Spirit is titled The Forgotten God. In the modern era, so much time and dialogue is rightly spent on the Father and the Son that the Holy Spirit is oftentimes mistakenly rendered a confusing afterthought. Scripture and church history demands that this verdict of the Holy Spirit's relevance is furthest from the truth, in fact, both demand that the Holy Spirit is crucial f... Read More

In Luke 19, we meet Zacchaeus—a man with both prominence and problems. Despite his wealth, he felt the emptiness that status couldn’t fill, driving him to seek something more. Jesus, walking intentionally through Jericho, sought him out, becoming a friend when others kept their distance. In that moment, Zacchaeus experienced true connection and life-changing grace. His heart, once preoccupied with... Read More

Jesus promised that history is heading somewhere—and He’s coming back. After devastation and darkness, after tribulation and trials, the Gospel doesn’t fade—it returns. Mark 13 paints a sobering picture: lights will fail, hearts will tremble, and the world will reel. But then comes the crescendo. Jesus returns, not in weakness, but in power and glory. His strength will calm every storm. His splend... Read More

Happy Palm Sunday Week!This week we celebrate the arrival of our saving King. When the Jewish people shouted "Hosanna!" they meant "save us," envisioning a ruler with the might to free them from Roman oppression. Yet, Jesus is so much more than a temporary political or military figure.Even if this wasn't the kind of saving they anticipated, it was the saving that every person, in every generation,...

If you were tasked with rating your belief on a scale from one to ten, where would you land? Believing can be so hard. Especially about the things I can see. Sometimes it seems easier to trust God with my eternity than the rest of my day. This week, we will explore belief and unbelief as we look at an interaction between Jesus and His disciples with a distressed father, begging for help for hi... Read More

If someone asked you what is the story of the Bible? What is the very centerpiece, the thesis, the theme statement? What is the heart of the greatest story ever told? Arguably, if it had to be narrowed to one verse, it would be John 3:16."For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him would not perish, but have everlasting life."When God gave the 202...
