If our worship isn't visible, comprehensive and extravagant, the gospel we heard must have been tiny, empty and cheap.

Limit your thinking and expectation today to only the things God can do.

It doesn't really matter how rich you are, we're all just renting here on earth! It all belongs to the Lord.

It’s at the heart of everything we struggle with in life: longing to be valuable, to be accepted, to be prized, to be worth something to somebody, to have a life that matters, and God’s saying ‘You matter! I didn’t make anyone else like you. You’re not a reprint or a lithograph. You’re a one-of-a-kind, original creation of God.

Advent allows us to recover during this four-week journey. It begins four Sundays before Christmas all the way up to Christmas. It lets us breath in those moments of faithfulness and helps us recognize that God is working.

Simply by our proximity to Jesus, we can bring hope and life to people and places trapped in discouragement and despair.

If you're waiting with God, waiting is okay. If you're always waiting on God, you'll be frustrated. God never seems to work at the speed that we want Him to.
