Running on Empty
by Ministry Support on July 10th, 2025
"And why do you worry about clothes? Observe how the wildflowers of the field grow: They don’t labor or spin thread" - Matthew 6:28 There’s a kind of tired that sleep does not fix. The kind where your mind keeps racing even when your body is still. The kind where you wake up more exhausted than when you went to bed.

Quit Trying to Outmuscle Worry
by Ministry Support on July 9th, 2025
"Therefore I tell you: Don’t worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food and the body more than clothing?" - Matthew 6:25 Most of us do not need someone to tell us life is heavy. We already feel it. The weight of responsibility.

"Can any of you add one moment to his life span by worrying?" - Matthew 6:27 Sometimes Jesus taught by telling stories. Other times, He taught by asking questions. And in Matthew 6, He fires off a whole bunch of them. Not to confuse us, but to get us thinking. Because worry makes you ask all the wrong questions. What if this happens? What if that falls apart? What if I cannot hold it all together?...  Read More

Where Worry Grows
by Jared West on July 2nd, 2025
"Cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you" - 1 Peter 5:7 Worry has a way of growing in the quiet places. It does not always shout. Sometimes it whispers. A passing thought. A what-if. A small feeling in the pit of your stomach that builds until you cannot sleep at night. Worry creeps in like a weed, and if you do not deal with it, it will take over everything. It started back in th...  Read More

What Are You Hiding From?
by Jared West on July 1st, 2025
"Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?" - Matthew 6:25 Worry sneaks up on all of us. It may come in quiet moments or in the middle of a storm, but it always asks the same question. What if? What if things fall apart? What if the money ...  Read More
