The Christmas Story: Run to the Savior
In Luke 2:8-20, the shepherds are the first to receive the good news of Jesus’ birth. These ordinary, overlooked men respond by running to the Savior, eager to worship Him and share the news. Their response—seeking peace with God, themselves, and others—teaches us how to embrace the true spirit of Christmas. Just like the shepherds, we are invited to come to Jesus, find peace, and then share that peace with the world. Run to the Savior, Worship Him, and Share His Peace.

Rooted in Scripture and filled with awe for God’s character, Mary’s song invites us to pause and magnify the Lord during the Christmas season. Her song reminds us that true worship begins with recognizing who God is.
The Christmas Story: Trusting God’s Word
In Luke 1, we encounter Mary, a young woman visited by the angel Gabriel, who delivers a life-altering message from God. Through Mary’s response to God’s Word, we see a model of faith, trust, and obedience that inspires us to approach God’s message with open hearts.
Bless the Lord
Psalm 103 is a beautiful outpouring of worship and thanksgiving, born from meditating on all that God has done, is doing, and has promised to do. This Psalm serves as a reminder to fix our eyes on the goodness and faithfulness of God. It is a call to recalibrate our hearts, allowing thanksgiving to flow from a deep awareness of His steadfast love and mercy.
Romans: Finish With Praise
In Romans 16:25-27, Paul concludes his letter with a doxology. His closing words remind us that the gospel’s ultimate purpose is to bring glory to God. As we reflect on this passage, let us consider how we can live lives that finish strong — anchored in faith, filled with gratitude, and marked by praise.
Romans: Intentional Faithfulness
If we want to see God work powerfully in our lives and in the church, it is not about being “spiritual superstars.” God works through ordinary people who are intentional, consistent, and faithful in following Him. As Paul explains in Romans 16, it is about being intentional in protecting the church, consistent in obedience, and faithful in standing firm in Christ’s victory over evil. Through these practices, we can be part of the extraordinary things God is doing.
Romans: No Lone Ranger Christianity
Names matter because people matter. Our God is a God who values each person, and Christianity is a faith centered on people — loving, encouraging, and discipling each other. In Romans 16, Paul is taking the time to call out and commend those who labored alongside him in ministry. He acknowledges their faithfulness, their sacrifices, and their influence on his life and the church.
Romans: Dream Big and Pray Hard
In Romans 15:20-33, Paul shares what can only be described as his “big dream” for ministry. His heart’s desire? To see the gospel spread to unreached people, wherever Christ’s name is still unknown. This passage challenges us to look beyond the ordinary and dare to dream for the kingdom of God, sharing the gospel with the world around us.
Romans: The Blessing of Our Calling
In Romans 15:14-19, we see Paul’s deep love for the church, his commitment to his calling, and his desire to see the believers continue to live with the same confident humility he himself embraced. Paul’s words resonate with us today, reminding us to remain steadfast in our faith and our calling.
