This week, Pastor Joshua continued our Holy and Whole series with a deeply refreshing message on what it means to truly rest. Teaching from 1 Kings 19:5–8 (NLT), he reminded us that rest isn’t something we earn after everything is finished — it’s something God designed us to need.

Through Elijah’s story, we see a God who steps into our exhaustion, feeds what life has drained, and gently prepares us for what’s ahead. Pastor Joshua invited us to let go of the things we’ve been carrying on our own, to open our hearts to what we’ve been missing, and to reconnect with God’s presence in a real and restoring way.

As we learn to release, receive, and trust, we discover that rest isn’t just about slowing down — it’s about becoming strengthened for the journey God is leading us into.

This week, as we jump back into our series Learning to Lament, Pastor Joshua brought a powerful Word to close out the series. Drawing from Lamentations Chapter 3, he reminded us that hope doesn’t erase our pain—it reframes it. In this message, we’re challenged to D.A.R.E. to HOPE. Even in the hardest seasons, God’s mercy is an everyday gift, and when He’s all we have, we discover He’s all we need.
