Have you read Psalm 119 lately? It’s the longest chapter in the Bible, so give yourself a little bit of time, but it’s worth it. It’s one of my favorite psalms. And there has never been a time we’ve needed it more. So many powerful reminders of why we need God’s Word so desperately in our own lives. Friends, no matter what you’re struggling with today - fear, grief, envy, betrayal, unforgiveness, loss, heartbreak, worry, insecurity…no matter what it is, Jesus will meet you in the pages of ...

Battling Self Doubt
I have had so many moments, especially in the last 12 months, of doubting my calling, my gifting, having regret over so many things. Wondering what exactly God was doing. I never once doubted the faithfulness or sovereignty of God. But, goodness, I have doubted myself. You may look at me and see some measure of success or a confidence that honestly would be not entirely true. Not even a little true. It’s been the hardest year of my life. I have questioned it all. But you know what?! God ... Read More about Battling Self Doubt
Journey to the Cross (Lent 2023 study)

“Bear with one another…” “accepting one another…” “make allowance for one another’s faults…” “forgiving one another as the Lord forgave you.” Colossians 3:13 Ugh. Well, you’re getting personal now, aren’t you, Paul?! 😂 Forgiveness and acceptance are so hard. Often the hardest thing we can ever do. But when we “put on love” forgiveness becomes evidence of the gospel at work in our lives. Forgiveness is the power of Emmanuel: God with us. Not of our own strength but Christ in us. You ...

‘Tis So Sweet To Trust In Jesus
How long have you been walking with the Lord? Doesn’t it just get sweeter and sweeter? I accepted Jesus as my Savior when I was 14; and for a PK that’s pretty old. But there’s a long history there for another day maybe. I don’t know why I started thinking about this today but as I was reading my Bible I was just overwhelmed with the sweetness of Jesus and how He has loved me all these years. Through so much. He never gets tired of me. He doesn’t give up on me. Oh, what a friend. What ... Read More about ‘Tis So Sweet To Trust In Jesus
