  • The Touch of God
    Oct 5 2025

    In a story that begins and ends in the wilderness, Jesus reverses everything we expect about purity and power. He doesn’t become unclean by touching the leper—His touch spreads outward, making the condemned accepted, the isolated surrounded, and the untouchable touched. The passage reveals not just a healer, but a Savior who trades places with the sinner so that all might come in.

  • Seen, Called, Recreated
    Sep 21 2025

    We spend much of life trying to make ourselves matter: chasing happiness, striving for achievement, always trying to be enough. While calling his first disciples, Jesus interrupts our exhausting pursuit with a better word. What if the life you are working so hard to create could only be found by following the One who already sees you, calls you, and makes you new?

  • Breadcrumbs show the way
    Sep 14 2025

    This gospel is shorter and its pace quicker than the other accounts of Jesus. We’re given breadcrumbs to follow rather than lengthy explanations to digest. These breadcrumbs are clues regarding who Jesus is and what he came to do. Who’s ready to see where they lead?

  • Good News, Not Good Advice
    Sep 7 2025

    Mark doesn’t kick things off with tips for a better life, he kicks the door down with an announcement: the silence is over, the good news is here. A voice shouts from the wilderness, but the voice isn’t the main act. It is getting us ready for Someone greater. Buckle up, because the gospel of Mark’s answer to the question “Who do you say I am?” is going to blow your hair back!!

  • The Song That Saves Us
    Aug 24 2025

    What do you do with a love poem in the middle of your Bible? This week we’ll see how the Song of Solomon pulls back the shades on our closed, hurried world. In a culture chasing superhuman strength through technology and self-reliance, this ancient poem invites us to slow down, listen, and see the Bridegroom bounding toward us in love.

  • Unmet desires point to our True Home
    Aug 17 2025

    If God makes promises and God keeps his promises, why is life so hard? Why do I have good desires (for peace or intimacy or joy) that go unmet? Our cloud of witnesses reminds us that this world is not our home, and our unmet desires prove it. Instead, we desire a better (heavenly) home. Don’t grow weary and lose heart for our true home exists and awaits us!
