A Change of Plans (October 5, 2026)
You said you would do it forever—and you meant it. Then the job vanished, and suddenly an honest promise looked like a lie. In 2 Corinthians 1, Paul’s critics pressed the same charge over travel plans that fell through: if his word couldn’t be trusted, why trust anything he said about the Gospel? When circumstances overturn the best intentions, where does trust rest?
Go Outside and Count Stars (August 30, 2026)
What happens when following God leads straight into a desert? In Genesis 12 and 15, Abraham reaches the promised land only to face famine, barrenness, and the apparent impossibility of becoming a great nation. Then God takes him beneath the night sky, where countless stars frame the tension between present circumstances and a promise that seems beyond reach.
God's Gaze Is Enough: Are You a Functional Atheist?
In a snowstorm, the signs showing miles to safety keep you moving even when relief feels hours away. You eat, you sleep, you feel better—so you believe that’s where strength comes from. But what happens when food runs out, rest doesn’t help, and the world keeps breaking? David pleads the same in Psalm 13, cutting to the real source of life: “Look at me, answer me, oh Lord, my God, revive me, or else I will die.” When personal storms and world chaos collide, what keeps hope alive?

Dumber Than an Ox (February 1, 2026)
An ox knows who feeds it; a donkey knows its master’s crib. But what about God’s people — including us? We forget.
Jesus, Decorate Me (December 14, 2025)
We tend to skip the genealogy at the start of Matthew—all those names, so many of them people we know nothing about. In doing so we miss something that matters deeply to ordinary people like us who wonder whether God actually works through lives like theirs.
God Works Where You Least Expect (November 23, 2025)
We tend to assume God works through the right people, in the right places, with the right credentials. Isaiah 44–45 is genuinely jarring to our assumptions: the Lord names a pagan, idol-worshiping foreign king as the one who will restore His people to their land.
Not Revenge, Not Retreat, But Relief. (October 19, 2025)
God works through ordinary people facing extraordinary pain. Hannah, a barren woman in a hostile household, pours out her anguish before the Lord rather than seeking revenge or retreating and He answers. He still does.
