Often our hearts are in the right place and we come into things desiring the best, but sometimes things still don’t work out like we plan. How can we take our well meaning hearts and align them with what God wants to do? Chris Thompson shares about this in relation to what he sees in Peter’s life in Mark 8.

Unity is essential and we are called to lay down our power and even our freedoms to lift those around us. How can we lay down our power in order to love and serve?

Scott reflects on car problems, life problems, and what can bring us reassurance.
Reference: Revelation 4

Moses held a stick to bring Israel to victory, but only succeeded through the support of friends.

What are you carrying that you need friends to lean on? Victory is not a lonely journey if we don’t allow it to be, although it does not mean it will be easy.

Our Creative Arts Director Dave Duinker shares a thought followed by a song of the Lord’s Prayer from Luke 11. Song begins at 2:52.

How aware are we of how we use our words? Alan reminds us of the importance and the power of our words. How does our speech praise God and bless others?

In this time when we see conspiracy theories, fighting and division it is hard to feel certain about anything. Chris reflects on Psalm 33, where we see God as the creator of all things and that nothing can thwart his plans.

This phrase is not only a call to engage in worshiping the Lord, but also a invitation for others to join in. This is the thought that inspired the song Dave shared previously called “Calling All Breathers” taken from Psalm 150.
