The Word of the Lord Today

In this message, we walk through 1 John 3:16 –24 and how true Christian love is more than words; it’s lived out through action and truth. We also look at the historical backdrop of John’s letter (including challenges like Gnosticism) and connect it to today: faith and hope are held together by love (1 Corinthians 13:13 ). Using illustrations like a puzzle and a seatbelt, the message calls us to be...

 In today’s message, we walk through 1 Kings 19:1–5 and the moment Elijah—exhausted and overwhelmed—sits under the broom tree and says, “I’ve had enough.” Yet God meets him with gentleness, providing rest and strength for the next step. If you’re carrying a heavy season, be encouraged: hard days don’t mean you’re broken—God is with you in the valley, and your story isn’t over. Keep moving forward,...

Like a rough penny or a piece of antique furniture, what seems worn still holds great worth. Will you open your heart and let Christ continue His refining work in you? #1Pet...

Like a child with a loving Father, we’re invited to walk in trust, confidence, and love. #ChildOfGod  #FaithInChrist  #IdentityInChrist  #GraceOverReligion  #BibleMessage
