God Wants to Use You to Make a Difference!
Esther was a young woman living in the capital of the Persian Empire. She never imagined the plans God had for her life, that led her to the palace, and placed her in a position to rescue her people from destruction. Her example demonstrates how the Lord wants to accomplish his work through his people.

Searching for Meaning
Is my life meaningful? This is a question that keeps us awake at night. We want to live with a sense of purpose, knowing that our days on this earth have mattered. And yet, our pursuits often leave us feeling frustrated and empty. There has to be more to life than making through another day. The book of Ecclesiastes challenges us to think deeply about life and points us to the one who can offer true and lasting significance.

Acting Like Everyone Else
It’s not easy to stand out from everyone else. Sometimes we feel the pressure to blend in, imitate the people around us, and conform. The people of Israel struggled with this in 1 Samuel 8. All of the other nations had a king, why couldn’t they have a king to rule over them like their neighbors? They forgot who God called them to be. These verses encourage us to stay true to our calling and follow God rather than the world.

Grumbling in the Desert
The book of Numbers describes Israel’s journey through the desert. The Lord guided them from Mt. Sinai to the edge of the Promised Land. We might expect the sound of rejoicing would have filled the camp, but the opposite was true. Everyday the people found a new reason to complain. When our journey is filled with challenges, we can either grumble, allowing ourselves to be weighed down with despair, or we can trust the Lord to guide us through.

The Fall (Genesis 3)
Have you ever wondered why there is so much evil and heartache in this world? In our journey through the Bible, we’ve seen how God created the universe, and it was good in every possible way. He even placed the first humans in a garden paradise to share in his rule and reflect his image on the earth. So what went wrong? These verses help us understand the problem, and provide a glimpse into God’s solution.

The God of Creation (Genesis 1)
As we begin our journey through the Bible, these opening verses address the deepest questions of our soul. Who are we? Where do we come from? How did the universe come into being? Life is not the product of a random series of events, but the work of an all powerful Creator.

A New Year’s Resolution
With the start of a new year, people often make resolutions for what they would like to accomplish over the next 365 days. It might be to get in shape, or learn something new. These are worthy goals, but sometimes we struggle to follow through. In Ezra 7:10 we read one man’s resolution for how he wanted to spend his life. His example inspires us today to make our walk with the Lord a priority for each and every day.

The Gift of God’s Presence
As we enter the Christmas Season, we’ve been unwrapping some of the greatest gifts ever given. You cannot buy these gifts with money, or find them under the tree. They are given by God, through His Son Jesus Christ, received by faith.

God’s Grace Is Sufficient
We have been exploring practical ways the grace of God changes us, when we come to discover His unmerited favor in our lives. In 1 Corinthians 12, we learn that the grace of God not only saves but sustains us through the challenges and difficulties of life. When we think we can’t go on, the Lord fill us with strength, as we trust in Him.

Grace Reaches Across Racial Divides
We have been exploring practical ways the grace of God changes us, when we come to discover His unmerited favor in our lives. This week we look at how the gospel of grace draws together as one people from all racial and ethnic backgrounds. Our passage demonstrates how destructive racism can be, and why the Church must speak out, upholding the message of reconciliation.
