Mission & Mercy

The goal of understanding God’s design is not to win cultural arguments but to win people for Christ. Our mission is to speak truth with mercy, embody grace with conviction, and point a confused world to the God who still redeems the broken.

Commission

Acts 1:6-11 – Until Christ comes, He has called us to go with the gospel until all have heard. Our lives are purposed to join Him in making disciples of all nations.

Like God, But Not Exactly

We were made in the image of God, but never meant to replace Him. When we recognize both the dignity of our design and the limits of our humanity, we learn why God has given us not only Himself but also the gift of one another.

The Gift of Technology

Technology isn’t evil; it’s powerful. Like fire, it can warm or it can burn. Used wisely, it can multiply your impact for the Kingdom; used carelessly, it can master your soul.

Joy That Holds You When Life Shakes You

Most people chase happiness, but joy runs deeper. It’s possible to have a steady joy even when life falls apart because the Holy Spirit gives what circumstances can’t touch.

Chaos & Clarity

A culture in rebellion against God inevitably descends into chaos. The disorder we see, moral confusion, fractured families, and pervasive anxiety, is not random but the result of rejecting divine design. 

Crucifixion

John 1:9-14 – Since we could not reach heaven, the Son of God came to us. The life, death, and resurrection of Jesus would change everything.

The Kind of Love That Actually Costs Something

We talk about love all the time, but most of what we call love is actually about getting, not giving. Real love, the kind that changes people, isn’t based on feelings, but on sacrifice.

The Lost Art of Confronting in Person

We’ve grown comfortable throwing words online and uncomfortable looking people in the eye. The most Christ-like conversations happen not in comment sections but in gracious conversations.

When Anxiety Overwhelms You

Anxiety visits every one of us, but Jesus shows us how to face it without being consumed by it. When distress overwhelms, peace is found not in escape but in drawing near to God and godly friends who help us stand firm.
