Who made the stars? Jesus made the stars.

Pastor Russell spent the whole morning in preschool and looked in no hurry to leave. Here is how it ended. A buggy ride. A prayer for mommy and daddy. A green heart colored right inside a red one.

Same lesson they opened with, from John 13:34: "just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another" (ESV).

If serving in McGregor Preschool Ministry has ever crossed your mind, this is the Sunday you would walk into.

Nobody in the nursery cares what you do the rest of the week.

Pastor Russell stepped in as a preschool volunteer for the morning. He was enjoying himself right up until he met a baby who liked the bouncer better.

Somebody holds a baby so a mom and dad can sit and hear God's Word. That is the work.

What did a preschool volunteer once do for your family that you never forgot?

Jesus took the job nobody wanted, and He did it on purpose.

Pastor Russell took the morning off from grown-ups and spent it in preschool. The lesson waiting for him: the Passover meal, feet that were actually dirty, and the King of the world kneeling with a towel.

No watered down version. Just John 13, at a very small table.

Save this for the next time you wonder what your kids are hearing down the hall.

Honest answers to honest questions, including the ones nobody wants to ask out loud.

In this Q&A closing our Hot Topic series, Pastor Mark Bricker brings Pastor Russell Howard anonymous questions submitted the night of the teaching. Gethsemane. Praying in Jesus' name. Predestination. Divorce and remarriage. Whether the Holy Spirit actually lives inside you.

None of them get dodged.

A shepherd. A dark valley. A table set for you while your enemies watch.

Six verses most people have only ever heard at a graveside. Tomorrow morning we're walking through Psalm 23 and what it actually says about who goes with you through the worst of it.

Come early, grab coffee, drop the kids off, and sing with a room full of people. Services at 8:00, 9:30, and 11:00 in the Fellowship Hall. There's a place for you with us.

There are a hundred voices telling you who to follow. Only one of them laid down his life for you.

In the fourth of the seven I AM sayings, Jesus calls himself the good Shepherd, the One who knows his sheep by name and whose sheep know his voice. Ron Cook teaches John 10 and traces the promise back to Ezekiel, where God vowed to come and gather the scattered himself.

Learning to follow him starts with learning to recognize his voice.

The job is what you do. The mission is why.

Love God, love the people He put near you. Same assignment, whatever the building.

Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men (Colossians 3:23). Careful work is love.

Save this for the next Monday you clock in wondering what the point is.

"If You had not loved me first, I would refuse You still."

That line from "All I Have Is Christ" is the whole gospel in one breath.

We like to think we found God. That we were searching, and He finally answered. But Scripture tells a different story. We were dead in our sin, running our own hell-bound race, indifferent to the cost (Ephesians 2:1-5). We would not have chosen Him. We could not.

So He chose first. He looked on our helpless state and led us to the cross. He bore the wrath that was reserved for us. Now all we know is grace.

"We love because he first loved us." (1 John 4:19)

This is why the song ends where it does. Not with our decision. Not with our strength to follow His commands. "My only boast is You."

Save this for the next time you start to think your faith depends on you.

Some nights your mind will not stop, and every worry feels bigger in the dark.

Psalm 121 says the God who watches over you never sleeps. Six times the psalm repeats one idea: the Lord keeps you. He guards, He preserves, and He does not doze off when you finally do. In this Beyond the Notes, Pastor Russell Howard walks past the sermon outline into what that keeping really means for the road ahead of you.

The king had it all and couldn't sleep. Daniel slept in a lions' den.

Darius had the power, the wealth, the throne, and he spent the whole night wide awake. Daniel had a death sentence and a cave full of lions, and he slept. The difference wasn't circumstances. It was who each man trusted to keep watch.

In Psalm 121, Pastor Russell Howard points to a God who neither slumbers nor sleeps. The One holding your life is awake through every hour you cannot be.

So the thing keeping you up at 2 a.m. is not yours to solve tonight. He is already awake, already working. You don't hold on to Him. He holds you.

Save this for the next time it's 2 a.m. and sleep won't come.
