It's easy to spend our days thinking about what we need, what we want, what we don't have yet, and what might happen tomorrow.

Pastor Lew reminded us that our material needs are real—but they don't have to become the center of our lives.

Pay attention to what occupies your thoughts today. When you catch yourself worrying about something you can't control, pause and say a simple prayer:

“God, I trust You with this.” 🙏

“We need to get our priorities right. Put our faith and trust not in our checkbooks but in God.”
— Pastor Lew Champ

Sometimes we don't need to change everything. We just need to stop long enough to ask whether our priorities are still in the right place.

A little heart check can go a long way. ❤️

What helps you keep your priorities centered on God?

Yesterday, Pastor Lew gave us a question worth carrying into the week:

Is the truck you're chasing really full of gold?

We all have things we're working toward. Goals. Dreams. Security. A little more money. A little more comfort. None of those things are automatically wrong. But sometimes it's good to stop and ask what has become most important to us.

Take five quiet minutes and honestly ask yourself, “What am I chasing right now?”

Then ask God to help you keep your priorities where they belong. ❤️

We have become too accustomed to the extraordinary.

08/28/2026

What if we came to worship not expecting to have everything figured out…
…but expecting to encounter something bigger than ourselves? ✨

The wonder. The mystery. The presence of God.
That's worth coming alive for.

What is one thing from this week's sermon that you are still thinking about?

Have a beautiful weekend, church family. ❤️

“We've majored in the trivial things and minored in the things that were really important.”
— Pastor Lew Champ

As we close the week, here's a question worth sitting with:
What am I giving my attention to?

It's easy to get caught up in appearances, routines, expectations, and little things that seem important in the moment. But Pastor Lew reminded us not to lose sight of what matters most: the awesome presence of God.

What helps you keep the important things at the center of your life?

Your life is not an accident to rush through.

There are people you've met, moments you've experienced, paths you've taken, and places you've ended up that you couldn't have planned.

Tonight, take a moment to thank God for your story. ❤️
