This Is Us: Week 1

Jesus Over Everything explores how our priorities reveal what we truly value in life. Through the story of the rich young ruler, we see how even good things can become idols that keep us from following Christ fully. When we recognize Jesus' supremacy—as Paul described to the Colossians—we find true fulfillment not in what we achieve but in what we receive through Christ. Making Jesus supreme means we don't just reach for Him over everything, but we reach with Him in everything. This transforms our approach to work, relationships, and goals, bringing the authentic fulfillment we've been searching for.

Turning Points: Week 5

Finding victory over self-sabotage requires recognizing our own role in our suffering. The story of Gideon teaches us that before God performs miracles, He calls us to take responsibility. When we cry out to God, His help often comes in the form of more of Jesus rather than simply removing our problems. Jesus sees us not as we see ourselves, but according to His destiny for our lives. The path to overcoming self-sabotage involves daily worship, taking responsibility, and trusting God's Word as our guide—moving from merely believing in God to truly trusting Him with every aspect of our lives.

Turning Points: Week 4

Life's unfortunate events often leave us questioning God's presence and purpose. Joseph's biblical journey from pit to palace demonstrates how God works through our most difficult seasons. Through being sold into slavery, falsely accused, and imprisoned, Joseph maintained his faith and integrity. His story teaches us three crucial lessons: in our lowest moments, we learn dependence on God; in unfair circumstances, we practice integrity; and in seasons of waiting, we develop patience. Joseph's life reminds us that God remains present through every trial, using what others intend for harm to ultimately fulfill His greater purpose in our lives.

Turning Points: Week 3

Life's losing streaks can make us feel like remnants of our former selves, as happened to Naomi in the book of Ruth. After losing her husband and sons in Moab, she returned to Bethlehem bitter and empty, allowing her losses to reshape her identity. Through her daughter-in-law Ruth's loyalty and the kindness of Boaz, a guardian redeemer, Naomi's story became part of God's greater plan. This narrative reminds us that God works providentially through our messes, weaving hope through every step. In Christ, our ultimate Redeemer, we find our true identity beyond our losses - not as bitter, broken, or alone, but as chosen, valued, and loved.

Turning Points: Week 2

When life falls apart unexpectedly, we can learn from Paul's experience during a shipwreck in Acts 27. In the midst of chaos, Paul made three crucial choices that can guide us through our own storms. First, he chose to believe in God's promises despite his circumstances. Second, he gave thanks even while surrounded by fear and uncertainty. Third, he continued to obey God's calling wherever he found himself. These choices didn't immediately calm the storm, but they provided Paul with stability and purpose until he reached safe harbor. Like Paul, we can find hope in our darkest moments by standing on God's promises, practicing gratitude, and remaining faithful where we are.

Turning Points: Week 1

When life's storms become overwhelming, we can find peace by following Elijah's example in 1 Kings 19. Driven by fear to the point of despair, Elijah surrendered under a broom tree where God met and strengthened him. Through a 40-day journey of renewal, God led Elijah to Mount Horeb where he encountered divine presence not in dramatic displays of power, but in a gentle whisper—a holy silence. Like Elijah, we can find peace by pulling over and surrendering our burdens, submitting to God's direction, and standing in His presence to receive His promises of protection, partnership, and purpose through Jesus Christ.

Summer In The Psalms: Week 10

Every miracle begins with a mess, and the key to transforming your darkest moments is through worship. Paul and Silas demonstrated this powerful truth when they chose to pray and sing praises to God at midnight while chained in prison. Their worship triggered an earthquake that not only freed them but every prisoner. When we worship instead of worry during our difficulties, God's peace comes first, followed by His power. Worship isn't just for church services—it's acknowledging God's greatness in every moment and surrendering our messes to Him. This approach not only transforms our situation but impacts everyone around us.

Summer In The Psalms: Week 9

Finding true spiritual refreshment means recognizing our deep thirst and turning to the right source. While we often seek fulfillment in success, relationships, or possessions, these temporary solutions leave us depleted. Psalm 1 describes the blessed person as one rooted in God's Word, like a tree planted by streams that never run dry. Jesus identified himself as this living water during the Feast of Tabernacles, inviting all who are thirsty to come to him. When we draw from Jesus as our source, we not only find our own spiritual thirst quenched but become channels of refreshment for others, bearing fruit even in difficult seasons.

Summer In The Psalms: Week 8

When we create our own crises through poor decisions, finding peace can seem impossible. David's story teaches us how to move from fear to faith even when we've caused our own problems. After fleeing from King Saul, David made fear-driven choices that led him straight into enemy territory in Gath. While imprisoned there, he wrote Psalm 56, revealing five crucial steps: be honest about your fear, put fear into perspective, remember you're still seen and loved, declare that God is for you, and choose to praise while you wait. Even in our self-created messes, God's grace remains available, demonstrating that He is for us, not against us.

Summer In The Psalms: Week 7

When life shifts beneath our feet, we often long for what was and fear what's to come. Psalm 137 captures the raw emotion of the Israelites in Babylonian exile, providing a powerful parallel to our own experiences of loss and change. God's message to the exiles offers a formula for finding hope: build roots where you are, grow through planting hope instead of bitterness, live in community, pray for peace, and seek God wholeheartedly. Through Jesus, we find the ultimate hope that transforms our perspective from what was lost to what can be, giving us strength to face any circumstance.
