January 11th, 2026: Repentance and Faith | Luke 15:11-24, Acts 2:38-39

For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. (2Corinthians 7:10). For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9). The prodigal son is one of the most recognized of Jesus’ parables. This parable contains all of the drama of modern reality television. Repentance is foundational to our faith; it is not just

January 4th, 2026: Sin and Forgiveness | 1 John 1:5-10, 1 John 2:1-6

But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:22-23). Let’s talk a bit about sin. Society and culture may blur the lines on what is or is not sin; however, God has not forgotten or changed His word on the matter. What is sin? In Hebrew, the word is “khata” and means “missing the mark or

December 28th, 2025: The Holy Spirit | Romans 8:12-17, 26-27

If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. (John 14:15-18). Accepting Jesus changes EVERYTHING. The old self is taken away, and a new believer emerges. Paul

December 21st, 2025: Christ the Savior | Luke 15:3-7, Romans 5:6-10

The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. (John 10:13-16). What is a savior and why is this a foundation of the christian faith? If yo

December 14th, 2025: Our Heavenly Father | Matthew 6:24-34

What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. (1 Corinthians 6: 19-20). Who are you? No laughing - who are you really? Who is that person that you deal with when no one is looking? Are you a pretender - talking a good talk but walking crooked and broken? Are you fearful that if people kn

December 7th, 2025: God's Word | Psalm 19:7-13

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12). To the skeptic, the word of God, or simply belief in God, is viewed as a crutch to a believer. To the atheist, there is no god and no need for one. Agnostics contend that any knowledge of a god is unknown and unknowable. The ideas th

November 30th, 2025: Ezekiel's Vision | Ezekiel 37:1-9, 12

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah. There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall he

November 23rd, 2025: Ezekiel's Responsibility | Ezekiel 33:7-16

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. (Jeremiah 17:9-10). The setting of Ezekiel chapter thirty-three is in the time after the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians and the burning of the temple. The prophetic words written by Jeremiah and Ezekiel have been fulfilled in the violent aftermath of the att

November 16th, 2025: Ezekiel's Sign | Ezekiel 3:10-11, 24:15-24, 27

Around the time of Israel’s defeat and captivity, cataclysmic battles were being waged between two great world empires: Babylon and Assyria. Egypt, once the powerhouse of the region, had been defeated and was rapidly losing influence. Meanwhile, not long after Babylon was victorious, the rise of the Medo-Persian Empire loomed large as it began to rise in power and influence. It was a time of great upheaval, resettlement, and profound loss for the people of God. Through th

November 9th, 2025: Jerusalem's Fall | 2 Kings 24:18-20, 2 Kings 25:1-9

2 Kings 24:18-20 During the final days of the nation of Judah, before it was crushed and burned by the armies of Babylon, King Mattaniah, who was renamed by Nebuchadnezzar Zedekiah, sat on the throne in Jerusalem. Long gone was the abundance of a land flowing with milk and honey; compromise and looting had cheapened and sullied Solomon’s temple, and the great armies created by King David were a distant memory. Long-time enemies, the Syrians, the Moabites, and the Amorites,

November 2nd, 2025: Jeremiah's Rescue | Jeremiah 38:7-13

Thus saith the Lord, He that remaineth in this city shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goeth forth to the Chaldeans shall live; for he shall have his life for a prey, and shall live. Thus saith the Lord, This city shall surely be given into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which shall take it. (Jeremiah 38: 2-3). For many years, the prophets (Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel) spoke warnings to Judah of a coming judgment day. The day

October 26th, 2025: Changes Promised | Jeremiah 31:29-34, John 1:17

For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer. For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law: Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in th

Thus saith the Lord, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the Lord which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the Lord. (Jeremiah 9:23-24). “If all your friends jumped off a bridge, would you jump off the bridge also?” Whether we
