Mercy Wins

Jesus didn't just show mercy — he made it a defining mark of his people. He was describing people shaped from the inside out by the mercy they had already received.

The Stone Was Rolled Away

Teach me to see the world through resurrection eyes—to recognize possibilities where others see only endings, to practice forgiveness where others harbor resentment, and to embody hope where others surrender to despair. Make me a Resurrection person, not just today but every day. Amen.

Easter

Between the Shadows and the Dawn

How do we lean into the wisdom of silence in a world that often wants action? How do we stop on Silent Saturday when so many people want to skip straight from Good Friday to Easter Sunday?

Easter

Easter

Kingdom Tells the Truth

God Speaks Into the Mess

God didn't wait for the world to clean itself up before he showed up. Jesus was placed in a feeding trough — a food trough — at birth. Not exactly where you'd expect to find a king, let alone the God who made everything. But that's the kind of God we serve.

The Fork in the Road

This is the fork in the road between "well done good and faithful" and "go away, I don't know you."

How to Be an Inviting Church

While you can't change the whole world on your own, you can make a meaningful impact in one, two, or three lives. If every follower of Jesus made this kind of impact, the world would begin moving toward God's kingdom.

Life is Precious

For those who call on God's name, life is precious and sacred. And the life most precious and sacred is the one which, today, hangs in the balance between now and eternity.

Finding Your Gift

Remember, God has placed you exactly where you are for a reason. No one else can do what you're called to do in exactly the way you're designed to do it. Your faithful service, however imperfect, matters more than you know.
