Resilience isn’t just about how strong you are. It’s about how strong we are together.

Today, Pastor Chris taught from James 5:19-20 and how our resilience isn’t just a personal victory - it’s a communal responsibility. Community and accountability matter far more than we give them credit for these days. Resilience is not a solo journey, but it is built in the trenches of community.

Restoring the wanderer is a divine assignment. Will you accept that assignment today? You could change someone eternity.

Confession isn’t about condemnation, it’s about restoration.

What burdens are you carrying that need to be brought into the light? James teaches in chapter 5 that confession leads to healing. Pastor Chris said today that concealment leads to captivity but confession leads to completeness. If we stay in community and practice confession and patience, we will see breakthrough.

Sometimes the greatest miracles happen in the unseen, in the process, while we’re still waiting. How will you remain expectant in the waiting this week?

When you can’t trace His hand, trust His heart.

Today’s message was a powerful one on the absolute importance of prayer. Pastor Chris taught that prayer isn’t just an item on our spiritual checklist; it’s the air we breathe as believers. Prayer should be our first response, not our last resort.

God wants to be involved in every detail of our lives, not just when we’re in crisis mode. How will that thought change the way you pray this week?

Patience pays off.

Pastor Chris taught from James 5:7-11 today and brought incredible insight about the value of patience. God is far more interested in who we’re becoming than in how quickly we get where we’re going and when we’re in a hurry, our vision becomes narrow.

Patience turns waiting rooms into classrooms. How will you see your time in-between this week?

Idolatry is trusting in created things rather than the Creator.

Pastor Chris preached a relevant and powerful message today on the importance of the ways in which we handle material possessions and wealth. He taught that earthly wealth has an expiration date, integrity with money matters, and greed distorts our reality.

There is nothing in our lives that shouldn’t be brought under the Lordship of Christ. How will you change your view of your material possessions this week with that in mind?

To plan our lives without God isn’t just unwise, he says that it’s evil, it’s sinful.

Today, Pastor Chris brought a message about spending our time on nothing but the best of what God has for us. He taught that God absolutely cares about how we make decisions and that the Sin of Presumption is making life choices apart from seeking and submitting to the will of God.

Our perspective is limited, our flesh is deceitful, our time is short, and our enemy is a liar. How will your choices this week reflect that reality?

James 4:11 “Do not speak evil against one another,”

Today, Pastor Chris brought a powerful message on our words from James 4 that everyone needs to hear. He said that it is absolutely vital that we are careful about the words we speak about and toward other people. Negativity has consequences that we need to be aware of but bringing the Truth in love can bring life.

Our words matter in everything that we do. How will you live that way this week?

God is far more interested in our character than our comfort.

Pastor Chris was back in the pulpit today and taught on the causes and cures of our conflicts from James chapter 4! He said that our mission is to transform the world, not to be conformed by it. When pleasure becomes the purposeof your life, you’ve missed the mark!

The cure for the causes of our conflict is more grace. How will you live in order to encounter that grace this week?
