Memorial Day is more than the beginning of summer or a day off work. It is a day of remembrance. Across more than 250 years of American history, countless men and women have laid down their lives so others could live in freedom. From the Revolutionary War to today, generations have stepped forward willing to sacrifice comfort, safety, and even their future for the good of others.

Their sacrifice reminds us of a powerful biblical truth: freedom always costs something.

As believers, Memorial Day also points us beyond earthly freedom to the greater freedom we have in Christ. The liberties we enjoy as Americans were defended by soldiers on battlefields, but our eternal freedom was secured by Jesus on the cross. Both remind us that sacrifice is never meaningless when it is given in love.

Psalm 33:12 declares, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.” A nation is not truly blessed merely because of military strength, wealth, or power. A nation is blessed when it remembers God, walks in righteousness, and honors truth. Memorial Day should not only move us to gratitude for fallen heroes but also to prayer for our country.

Today, take time to remember those who gave everything. Pray for military families carrying grief. Thank God for the freedoms you enjoy. But also ask the Lord to help America turn back to Him with humility and repentance.

The greatest way we honor sacrifice is by living responsibly with what others fought to protect.

This week we’re jumping back into Honest Doubts, and talking about tithing.

We are going to look at what the Bible really says about tithing and giving, clearing up common misunderstandings, pressure, and guilt often attached to it.

This week we’re jumping back into Honest Doubts, and talking about tithing.

And before you decide to suddenly “get sick” or find a very urgent reason to not show up to church… relax, I’m not about to ask you to give more money or guilt-trip anybody into anything.

We are going to look at what the Bible really says about tithing and giving, clearing up common misunderstandings, pressure, and guilt often attached to it.

At the heart of it all is this: God is not after your money (I'm not either) —He’s after your heart. And when He has your heart, giving becomes worship, not pressure.

Hope to see you at 9am Sunday morning!

Jesus gave His followers a purpose greater than themselves. They were empowered by the Holy Spirit to live for God’s kingdom and point others to Christ.

Many people chase temporary things that never truly satisfy. Real purpose is found in knowing God and serving Him. Every act of obedience, encouragement, and faithfulness matters in God’s kingdom.

God wants believers to live intentionally, using their lives for eternal impact.

Jesus made it clear that the gospel was not only for one group of people. His message was meant to reach every nation, culture, and background.

The mention of Samaria was especially important because Jews and Samaritans had deep divisions between them. Jesus showed that the gospel breaks down barriers and calls believers to love all people.

God still calls His church to carry the gospel to neighbors, communities, and nations. Every believer has a part in this mission.

Jesus called His followers to be witnesses. A witness simply shares what they have seen and experienced. Every believer has a testimony about what Jesus has done in their life.

Sharing our faith does not require perfect words or complete knowledge. It requires willingness and obedience. God can use a simple conversation, a kind act, or a personal testimony to point someone toward Christ.

The world needs believers who are unashamed to live for Jesus and speak about His goodness

Jesus knew the disciples could not fulfill their mission in their own strength. They needed the power of the Holy Spirit. The same is true for believers today.

God never intended us to live the Christian life through human effort alone. The Holy Spirit strengthens us, guides us, convicts us, and empowers us to live faithfully. When we feel weak, we can depend on His strength instead of our own.

The Spirit does more than help us survive; He transforms us so we can live boldly for Christ.

The disciples wanted Jesus to reveal when God would restore Israel, but Jesus redirected their focus away from timelines and toward trust. Sometimes we become frustrated because we want answers God has not chosen to reveal yet. We want immediate breakthroughs, instant clarity, and visible results.

Jesus reminds us that God’s timing belongs to the Father alone. Even when we do not understand His plan, we can trust His wisdom. Waiting seasons are often preparation seasons where God strengthens our faith and teaches us dependence on Him.

Instead of obsessing over “when,” Jesus calls us to remain faithful today. God is never late, and His plans are always greater than what we can see.
