Advice for Young Adults in a Broken World: Living with Light When Trust Is Hard
In times of endemic distrust, how can we resist cynicism in a broken world and choose clarity, conscience, and faith instead? How can we stand better, more fully, in God’s light—learning how small acts of faithfulness and responsibility can keep hope alive when trust feels fragile?

Next Level Love: Challenge Accepted
The human race is being challenged by God to level up the love! When Jesus was preaching His most famous sermon he challenged the people to see the Commandments as more than a list of laws and regulations, saying multiple times “You have heard it said… but I say to you…” (Mt. 5:21, 27, 33, 38, 43)
Today the Lord challenges us to see how all divine law (The Word) shows us what love really is, and how we can get better at it. Do you accept the challenge to love on the next level?

Don’t Give Up: It’s Not All for Nothing
We all start out as adults with dreams of who we might become and what we might contribute to this world. But at some point in life, we realize that it’s not always easy. In hard times, hope can fade, and we may feel tempted to give up on those dreams.
God never abandons us, and God is the one who planted those dreams within us in the first place. The path may not look the way we expected, but it will unfold—and it will be good. Don’t give up. Make your dreams a priority. God always comes through.

Finding God in the Wilderness of Life
In this message, we’ll explore the story of Elijah and the Widow from 1 Kings 17—a powerful reminder that God's presence often meets us in life’s most desolate and difficult places. What we may see as barren or broken, the Lord can transform into spaces of provision, growth, and unexpected grace. By learning to seek God in the “wilderness” moments of our lives, we open ourselves to a deeper trust and a more intimate relationship with Him.

Soul-Level Freedom
We often believe that material things create freedom. In our culture, it feels like a simple equation: more money equals more freedom. Yet there are deeper forms of freedom—freedom at the soul level—that nourish our well-being in ways we can hardly imagine. This kind of freedom is a God-given blessing.

Breaking the Routine
We can all get caught in ruts, stuck in set ways of seeing the world. As the year starts, what a great time to think about breaking the routines that no longer serve.

Gathering “It” in the New Year
God always provides it—and when we gather it first, we do a lot less fruitless searching and worrying—What is "it?”
This week, as we approach the New Year, we will look at God’s priorities for us, and how putting first things first on a daily basis opens our eyes to notice and live into the peace and happiness God want us to have!
