A resource you can use today. Sermon Overview Title: Everything’s Breaking… But You’re Still Standing Scripture Focus: John...

This Sunday Is Online Only 🎥 Still Standing. Still Called. Still Here 🙌🏾
Hey family, I want to take a moment to check in with you. I know life can feel heavy sometimes. Some weeks it is a miracle just to show up, to keep going, and to hold on to faith. If that is where you are, you are not alone. I have been there too. Last Sunday’s message came from that place between what you have been through and what God is still doing. Still Standing. Still Called. Still Here. You have been through storms that should have buried you. You have faced seasons that stripped your...

Facebook Suspended My Page. Here’s Where to Find Me
Hey friends, My Facebook page was just temporarily suspended. Someone reported my latest post for “violating community standards” and called it divisive. But let’s be real. Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequences, especially when you’re posting on borrowed ground. Social media is rented space. At any moment, the rules can shift. Access can be revoked. Messages can be silenced. I saw it coming. My last few posts were already being shadowbanned. But I’m still here. ✅ You’re...
This Sunday Is Online Only 🎥 This Week’s Word: Move, Even If You’re Afraid 🤔
Happy Thursday Reader! Fear doesn’t always show up as panic. Sometimes, it disguises itself as wisdom. Last week, we opened the question: What will you do when fear tries to keep you stuck? And many of us saw ourselves in the freeze, paralyzed by doubt, uncertainty, or the pressure to play it safe. But this week, the invitation shifts. Will you stay frozen, or will you move forward? What Will You Do: Freeze, Fight, Flight, or Fold Part 2 of “What Will You Do?” challenges you to stop waiting...
This Sunday Is Online Only 🎥 Will You Freeze. Fight. Flee. Fold? 🤔
Happy Thursday Reader! Here's what happened this week... Texas Nat'l Guard Invades Illinois... didn't have that in my cards. When I heard “Plenary Authority” at lunch, I almost choked. Then Stephen Miller froze and CNN covered for him, calling it a “technical issue.”Plenary authority means absolute power. No limits. No checks. No accountability. In the United States, no one has plenary authority. That’s the whole point of the Constitution. And yet, history tells us who claimed it before:...
