Be sure to call your father today 🙂
When Jesus said His last final goodbye, John 17 captured this prayer, a prayer for who and what mattered most to Him: “May God’s people be one!” Today, we sometimes pull back and exist in isolation. May we strive to be one, to overlook our differences, and tear down those barriers. Lord, help us…
Our theme verse for this year’s Sunday School is Ephesians 2:10. To be Created in Christ, we are not only physically alive but spiritually alive as well! Not to be living among the world, and deserving of wrath, but instead alive in Christ and living a spirit-filled life. He treats us with mercy because of…
Reminder: call your mom today 😉 Honoring your mother has its foundation in the fourth commandment. Today, moms are tasked like never before and still strive to be godly and worthy of honor.

On that Sunday morning when Jesus was raised from the dead, his followers knew not what to think. They were afraid. In the chaos that followed the news spread like wildfire that Jesus was alive! Help us to share that excitement in the news that He is risen indeed! We wish you and your family…
It’s easy to see the events of Holy Week from our perspective as believers. But imagine the perspective of the disciples and others central to the story of our Lord’s last week before his glorious resurrection. What a challenge they faced as the week unfolded! Lord may we also examine our trials through the lens…
