    Podcast Recap: “The Mystery of God: Known Yet Unsearchable”

    In today’s episode, we step into the awe and wonder of who God is—vast, holy, and beyond comprehension, yet intimately near. Drawing from Isaiah 55:8–9, we reflect on how God's thoughts and ways soar far above ours, inviting us not into confusion, but into deeper trust.

    We explore the tension between what is revealed and what remains hidden, and how embracing God’s mystery can lead to spiritual intimacy rather than distance. With personal stories, Scripture, and encouragement, this episode is a call to worship—not because we understand everything about God, but because He’s faithful, good, and present even in what we don’t understand.

    Let this episode remind you: it’s okay not to have all the answers. Sometimes the most sacred place is found in surrender, in wonder, and in the quiet trust that His ways are always higher.

  • Still Loved
    Apr 18 2025

    This week, we are changing it up a bit for Easter. Here is a song that I wrote that I am sharing with you.......Still Loved


    Friday looked like it was the end,

    But love showed up, called me friend.

    Cross on His back, thorns in His crown,

    He lifted me when I was down.

    The world went dark, but heaven shined,

    His heart was set on yours and mine.

    For God so loved, He sent the light,

    Gave His Son to make it right.

    Even when I turned away,

    He chose the cross, He chose to stay.

    No fear, no shame, I’m not alone—

    Still loved, still known, still called His own.

    Blood ran red, but love ran wild,

    Saving grace for every child.

    Nailed to death, but not for long,

    Sunday’s coming — sing the song!

    The stone rolled back, the chains came loose,

    He gave His life, He called it truth.

    For God so loved, He sent the light,

    Gave His Son to make it right.

    Even when I turned away,

    He chose the cross, He chose to stay.

    No fear, no shame, I’m not alone—

    Still loved, still known, still called His own.
