Have you ever felt like following God means trying to constantly “figure everything out”… only to end up more anxious, uncertain, or discouraged? 🙁

This Shabbat teaching challenges a common struggle many of us face:

We can easily confuse God’s moral direction with our personal preferences, or turn faith into a constant search for hidden details instead of learning to walk in wisdom, trust, and obedience. 🛤️ 📖

But what if the real issue isn’t that God is unclear…
What if the issue is how we see Him? 👀

Is He a distant supervisor waiting for mistakes?
Or a loving Father who guides us with purpose, patience, and care? ❤️

When our view of HaShem is healed, everything begins to shift:
Fear gives way to trust. 🙌
Confusion gives way to peace. 🕊️
Pressure gives way to rest. 🌿

If you’ve wrestled with decision-making, doubt, regret, or uncertainty in your walk—this message is for you. 🫶

📖 Watch or rewatch the teaching and share it with someone who needs encouragement today.

If this ministry has blessed you, your support and shares help us continue reaching others with truth, healing, and hope. 🤝✨

Out of Ashes Ministries was birthed out of lives that were broken and desperate for truth.

Shabbat Shalom Mishpacha!

We can't wait to be with you all tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. for a wonderful time of gathering, encouragement, and fellowship. There is just something about coming together with community, with like minded people, walking and doing life together. It is what grounds us, it is what keeps us consistent, and what keeps us focused on the walk HaShem has for us.

Come expectant. Come as you are. We look forward to seeing you there!

Have you ever been afraid you missed God’s Will?

Have you ever looked back at a decision and wondered:

• Did I mess up God’s plan for my life?
• Did I take a wrong turn somewhere?
• Am I suffering because I made the wrong choice?
• What if I choose incorrectly again?

Many believers live under a constant weight of fear, guilt, and second-guessing, convinced that God’s Will is a narrow path where one wrong step puts them outside His plan.

But is that really what Scripture teaches?

This Shabbat, P.J. will continue unpacking:

“Healing the Distorted View of the Will of God and What He Expects…”

Together we’ll explore questions like:

• Have we confused God’s moral will with our personal preferences?
• Is faith about trying to decode every detail of God’s hidden plan?
• Or is it about learning to walk in wisdom, maturity, trust, and obedience?

Perhaps the most important question is this:

Do we see God as a loving Father who guides us, or as a disappointed supervisor waiting for us to fail?

If you’ve ever wrestled with fear, uncertainty, regret, or decision-making in your walk with God, this message is for you.

🕙 Shabbat Service Begins at 10:00 A.M.
📍 2790 Hwy 3226, DeRidder, LA

Come ready to be challenged, encouraged, and equipped to walk forward with greater confidence in the goodness and wisdom of HaShem.

We’d love to have you join us and feel free to stay and eat/fellowship with us after service.

For our Shabbat Chefs, the theme for Oneg this week is "Breakfast for Lunch", one of our mishpacha favs!!!

We hope to see you all either in person or via Live Stream this Shabbat!

Last Shabbat, P.J. began unpacking a topic that touches many of us more deeply than we realize:

“Healing Our Distorted View of the Will of God and What He Expects.”

For many believers, the Will of God can feel confusing, intimidating, or even exhausting.

Have you ever wondered:

• If things aren’t going well, does that mean I’m outside of God’s Will?
• If life is going smoothly, am I somehow doing something wrong?
• Did I ruin God’s plan for my life because of a bad decision—or a series of them?
• What if I chose incorrectly and disappointed Him?
• How can I move forward faithfully when I’m uncertain about what to do?

Many of us live with chronic guilt, constant second-guessing, and the fear that every decision is a spiritual test with only one “correct” answer.

But what if we’ve confused God’s moral Will with our personal preferences?

What if faith isn’t about fearfully trying to decode every detail of God’s plan, but instead learning to walk in wisdom, maturity, and trust?

Fear-based faith asks:
“Which choice is God’s Will, and which choice is disobedience?”

Healthy faith asks:
“Which opportunity best aligns with the wisdom God has given me?”
“Which choice helps me flourish?”
“Which option supports my responsibilities, relationships, and spiritual health?”

P.J. also challenged us with some personal inventory questions:

• What am I most afraid of?
• What do I believe will happen if I choose incorrectly?
• Do I view God as a guide, an examiner, a disappointed supervisor…or as a loving Father?

If you’ve ever struggled with fear, uncertainty, guilt, or decision-making in your walk with God, we encourage you to watch and share this teaching.

Our prayer is that it challenges you, encourages you, and perhaps even begins a process of healing.
