Looking for some weekly encouragement? 📖✨ Here’s a quick look at what we've been diving into this week:

Sunday (Grace & Fellowship): Reminding ourselves not to receive God's grace in vain—let’s share the love and blessings we didn’t have to earn!

Monday (The Law & Grace): While the Old Testament laws show us how specific God is about our behavior, thank God for the grace and mercy given through Jesus when we fall short.

Tuesday (A Man After God's Heart): Looking at the life of David reminds us that no one is above temptation or sin, but repentance always restores.

Wednesday (Contemplation): Whispering prayers in times of danger and learning to cast our cares on the Lord.

Thursday (Awesome Creator): God speaks and it happens! Taking time to stand in absolute awe of the intricate details of His creation.

Friday (Prophecy & Obedience): God is always working on His plan for restoration, even when we can't see it yet.

Saturday (The Gospel of Luke): Walking through the miraculous accounts of John the Baptist and Jesus' early life.

This week’s scripture readings have been an incredible reminder of God’s consistency, justice, and overwhelming love. From the giving of the Commandments in Exodus to the empty tomb in Mark, the message remains clear: We serve a God who delivers, restores, and invites us to live by faith, not by sight.

Weekly Highlights:

🌿 Exodus: Shifting from the "don'ts" of the law to the "dos" of Jesus' love.
👑 2 Samuel: Celebrating God's goodness and extending radical kindness to others.
📬 Jeremiah: Trusting God's plans for our future, even when we are waiting.
✝️ Mark: Resting in the power of the resurrection and answering the call to "Go and tell."

We are his ambassadors, carrying his light into the darkness. Let's step into this new week renewed, refueled, and ready to share His love!

Sunday - Epistle Date: May 24, 2026 Day 119 Greetings! It’s so easy to get discouraged. There are lots of things that can make people lose heart: loneliness, death, emptiness, addictions, destruction, mistrust, and deception. But through the enlightenment of Jesus Christ through ...

New week, new readings! 📖✨

We're shifting gears from 1 Corinthians to the deeply personal words of 2 Corinthians 1-3 and the epic historical account of Exodus 13-16.🗺️

The Journey Takes Time: Take a look at the map below to visualize Paul and Timothy's travels through regions like Achaia and Macedonia. These ministries and letters weren't built in days or weeks—they took years of grit, travel, and absolute reliance on the Holy Spirit.

Two truths to carry into your week:The Veil is Torn: In Christ, we have open access to the glory of God. Our faith is a daily progression—we grow closer to Him the more time we spend in His word.The Wilderness is Provided For: Just like God provided Manna daily for the Israelites in the desert, He will provide the comfort, peace, and sustenance you need for today.Keep your hearts soft, stand fast in your faith, and let's stay cool out there in this heat! ☀️👇 What stood out to you most in this week's chapters?

Sunday - Epistle Date: May 17, 2026 Day 112 Greetings! Good morning! I wanted to include a map of Paul and Timothy’s journey so that you could see the extent of their trip and hopefully understand the time involved. These letters weren’t just written over the course of days or ...

Last week's reading takes us from the powerful conclusion of Paul's letters to Corinth to the dramatic deliverance of Israel in Exodus:

1 Corinthians 15-16: Paul reminds us of the glorious reality of the resurrection (Death, where is your sting?!) and urges the church to stand fast in faith and do all things in love.

Exodus 9-12: We see God's wonders on full display through the final plagues of Egypt, the establishment of the Passover, and the miraculous deliverance of His people from bo***ge.

God is still in the business of defeating death and delivering His people. Let's keep our hearts soft and our faith steadfast this week! ❤️

Sunday - Epistle Date: May 10, 2026 105 Greetings! Today we end 1 Corinthians with the ending of Paul’s last letter to the church. Can you believe it? We have now read 8 whole books of the bible! We will complete 1 Samuel on Tuesday, and that will be 9! I’m so proud of our journe...
