I’ve Got This. Trust Me. (Anxiety)
Worry. Anxiety. Frustrations. These all come easy to us and there are plenty of catalysts on a daily basis to stir them up in our lives. But as we face them, we always have a choice. We can choose to turn inwardly and try to solve the problems ourselves. Or we can turn outwardly toward God and seek him. Join as we focus on Philippians 4:6-7 today and work through a few thoughts on anxiety. CCLI Streaming License # 20229783
Complaining to Gratitude
As we look at the world around us, it is easy to find something to complain about. It comes natural to us. Whether it’s politics, something happening in our local community or our families, even our health, complaining comes easy. What is harder is for us to refocus our eyes to the goodness of God and how we’ve seen his grace this day. This is the transformation the gospel calls us to. CCLI Streaming License # 20229783

A Spiritual Eyesight Prescription
Romans 11:36 has been described as one of the greatest lines of written language in all of Scripture.

Focus for 2023
A new year lies ahead of us. While we may have plans, we don’t know what the year may bring for us. God does though. I’d like to encourage you today with an email I received recently which addresses our focus as we enter the new year ahead, grounding is in great truths from the Scriptures and God’s character. Thanks for joining us! “A Fitness Plan for the New Year” (1 Tim 4:6-11)
Thoughts on Death
Death is a reality for all of us. Unless Jesus comes again before we enter the grave, we will all die. And death is one of those odd subjects that people don’t like to talk about but yet commands interest as well. There are all sorts of stories on YouTube about people’s after-death experiences. I was watching a video today asking “What happens when we die?” Looking to Scripture, what does it have to say about death and hope for…
AN ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE (PART 1)
None of us appreciates suffering, yet Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 4 that God has a purpose even in the suffering we experience. Paul encourages us to look at our suffering from an eternal perspective to give us focus as we experience it.
