The Arrival of an Unexpected King
Scriptures:Mark 11:1–10; Zechariah 9:9; Romans 10:9; Philippians 2:6–8 The Arrival of an Unexpected King There is something deeply disruptive about the way Jesus arrives. On Palm Sunday—what Scripture calls the Triumphant Entry—we are confronted with a King who refuses to meet our expectations, yet somehow meets our deepest needs. The streets of Jerusalem were filled…

The Mission Must Go On
Scriptures:Mark 8:27–35; 1 Corinthians 1:18; Galatians 2:20; Romans 12:2; Romans 5:8 The Mission Must Go On There are moments in life when the map we’ve trusted no longer makes sense.

Reaching For Overflow
Scriptures: Luke 8:40–48; Mark 5:25–34; Leviticus 15:25–30; Romans 12:2 Reaching for Overflow There are moments in life when survival is no longer enough. Moments when the quiet ache inside us whispers, something must change. In those seasons, we often find ourselves reaching—reaching for solutions, for hope, for anything that promises relief. Scripture tells us the story of…

Sisterhood: Not Just a Jar
Scriptures:2 Kings 4:1–7; Romans 1:11–12; 1 Corinthians 12:12–27; Acts 2:1–4; Matthew 17:20 Not Just a Jar What if the miracle you’ve been praying for is already sitting somewhere in your ordinary, everyday life?

A Second Touch
Scriptures:Mark 8:22–26; John 8:32; Matthew 16:13–24; Philippians 1:6; Hebrews 11:1 A Second Touch What if your blurriness is not failure—but invitation? In Mark 8, we encounter one of the most unusual miracles in the ministry of Jesus. A blind man is brought to Him in Bethsaida. Not by the crowd. Not by the religious elite.…

Watch Him Work
Scriptures:Mark 6:30–44; Matthew 6:33; Matthew 6:9–10; Psalm 1:1–3; Genesis 3:9–11; Habakkuk 2:1; 2 Peter 3:13–14; Revelation 1:3 Watch Him Work More than title, it’s an invitation to a different way of living. Not striving. Not panicking. Not scrambling in “very late” places. But standing still long enough to see what Jesus will do with what…

Because He is, I Can
Scriptures:John 1:43–51; Genesis 28:12; Matthew 11:28–30; Ephesians 3:7 Because He Is, I Can. In John 1, we encounter a holy moment. Jesus is forming the foundation of His ministry. He calls Philip. Then Philip runs to Nathanael with divine excitement: “We have found the One!” But Nathanael’s first response is not faith. It’s skepticism. “Nazareth?…

Come Alive, Child
Scriptures:Mark 5:21–43; Matthew 19:13–14; John 1:11–12; 2 Timothy 1:7; Ephesians 5:14 Come Alive, Child “Talitha koum.” Little girl, get up. There are moments in Scripture that feel less like stories and more like invitations. Mark 5 is one of them. Jairus’ daughter lies motionless. The room is filled with noise—wailing, opinions, conclusions. Outside, the narrative is…

SENT (Not Spent) (Vision Sunday 2.0)
Scriptures:John 4:1–34; Proverbs 11:25; Luke 19:10; John 20:21 SENT (Not Spent): Finding the Overflow We Didn’t Know We Needed We live in a world fluent in the language of exhaustion. “I’m tired.” “I’m stretched.” “I’ve got nothing left to give.” We call it being spent, and for many, it has become the normal rhythm of life.…

OVERFLOW: Until the Light Touches Everything (Vision Sunday)
Scriptures:John 1:1–14; Genesis 2; Psalm 27:10; Malachi 3:10; Romans 8:14–17 Overflow: When Heaven Touches Earth Sometimes, all it takes is a single word to change everything. For us, that word in 5786 is overflow. What does it mean to live in overflow? What does it mean for heaven to reach down and interrupt the ordinary with…
