In John 5, Jesus reveals his divine authority and points to the witnesses that validate him as the Son of God and Savior: God the Father, John the Baptist, his miracles, the Scriptures, and even Moses. Each testifies to his identity, calling us to believe in him for eternal life.

The Sabbath reveals a deeper heart issue: legalism. While we often rely on rules, Jesus shows that grace—unearned and freely given—is what truly heals. When He restored a man lame for 38 years on the Sabbath, He demonstrated that God’s grace transcends our limitations and rules.

What does the Bible say about eternal life? Today, we’ll look at John 3 and 4 to see how Jesus navigates this conversation with two different people: Nicodemus and the Samaritan woman. We’ll explore how each of them engages with the topic and responds to the idea of eternal life.

Humility means seeing ourselves as we truly are—nothing more, nothing less—and stepping aside to allow God to work through us. John the Baptist modeled this by stepping back so Jesus could be exalted, showing that true humility makes space for God’s greater purpose.

Who is Jesus? He is the perfect and complete revelation of God, showing us who God truly is. He longs to dwell with us, not from a distance but close, sharing in our lives. Jesus invites each of us to become children of God, embracing us into His family and transforming our lives forever.

Matthew 9 talks about how the harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few.  Today we look at what it looks like to live on mission with the Biblical truths we have in hand.

Racism wounds with pain, anger, and callousness, dividing hearts. The gospel heals by cleansing these scars, turning anger into grace and callousness into compassion, restoring unity in Christ.

We all have a worldview—a lens through which we see and interpret everything around us. But not all worldviews are the same. As followers of Christ, we're called to have a biblical worldview, grounded in Scripture. Colossians 2:8 warns us, "See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ." No matter how we feel or what the world says, we need a biblical framework to think through the issues we face, aligning our thoughts and actions with God's truth.

Psalm 34 calls us to our role as worship leaders. It teaches that we don't need countless reasons to worship God; one reason is enough to worship Him repeatedly. The psalm emphasizes magnifying the Lord and exalting His name together, illustrating our collective duty to lead and inspire worship. By embodying the spirit of Psalm 34, we encourage others to join us in continual praise, lifting His name in unity and joy.

James 5:12-20 encourages Christians to live with integrity and support one another.

Today, we explore a crucial topic: the dangers of slander and gossip versus the transformative power of grace and truth.

In James 5:1-12, the rich are warned against hoarding wealth, which corrodes both their possessions and their faith. Their misuse of wealth testifies against them, leading to their misery. Believers are encouraged to be patient in hardship, likening their perseverance to farmers waiting for their crops to grow. They are urged not to give up but to remain steadfast, trusting that God will ultimately intervene and bring justice.

"Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God?" This powerful message urges us to reflect on our priorities. When we embrace worldly values in any form, we distance ourselves from God. This conflict arises from various aspects of our lives, leading to severe consequences. However, through sincere repentance, we can restore our relationship with God and find true spiritual fulfillment.
