This week, we explore James 5 and the transformative power of prayer. In moments of suffering, joy, or sickness, James reminds us that we are never alone—prayer brings healing, community, and the presence of God into every circumstance.
This week’s message from the Book of James invites us to recognize our limits, rely on God’s guidance, and resist prideful independence. We're reminded that life is fleeting—and that true purpose is found in doing good and following God’s will each day
Words hold great power, and James challenges us to recognize both their potential for harm and for healing. This message explores how we can use our speech to bless others, affirm their worth, and sow peace—even when our tongues feel untamable.
We embody our faith through action. Real faith isn’t passive—it shows up in how we treat others, especially the poor and overlooked. Love isn’t just a feeling; it takes shape in service, sacrifice, and stepping in when God is at work.
James 1 challenges us to stop merely hearing the word and start doing it. Real faith is shaped by endurance, fueled by grace, and shown through action. From how we speak to how we serve, James calls us to live out what we say we believe.
Pentecost is not about personal spiritual gain but about becoming a people of faithfulness, cross-cultural compassion, and collective mission. We are invited to slow down, wait on God’s promises, and give ourselves to the Spirit’s work of unity and service.
The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead empowers us today to live in wholeness and holiness. As we wait and wonder, we find our witness in community, showing up faithfully even when power is not in our hands.
The Holy Spirit forms us not just as individuals, but as a community rooted in love, maturity, and mutual care. In a culture obsessed with individualism, the Spirit draws us into a shared life where transformation and freedom are found together. At the Communion table, we remember that we are one body—many members, made one by the Spirit’s gift.
The Holy Spirit doesn’t just comfort us—it empowers us. The same Spirit that raised Jesus now leads us into freedom, maturity, and new life as beloved children of God, inviting us to surrender our old ways and step into who we’re truly meant to be.
This Mother’s Day, we reflect on the truth that every person is made in the image of God. Through Mary’s story, we’re invited to reexamine the images we hold of God and consider how we might say yes to bearing Christ into the world.
