“Hope in the Midst of the Storm” – Oct. 1, 2024

When the ground shifts beneath our feet, where can we find stability? I have been praying for the people suffering from Hurricane Helene this past weekend.

“Being Vulnerable with God and Each Other.” – Sept. 10, 2024

Have you ever had the fear of being discovered? You felt you had a secret flaw that was so egregious that you feared if it were found out you would be publicly shamed? That can be quite a burden to bear. One of the great joys of Christianity is that we discover that ‘all have […]


Living Water, Come Quench your Thirst – July 23, 2024
