Because Jesus lives, every part of our lives is changed—not just our future but our everyday moments. His resurrection gives us hope when we’re weary, strength when we feel weak, and purpose in the unseen work of daily life. The empty tomb isn’t just something to celebrate once a year—it’s the foundation we build our lives on. How does the resurrection shape the way we trust God, love others, and walk through trials? This episode w...

What does it mean to walk in wisdom with eternity in view?

So much of life is fleeting, but God calls us to set our hearts on what will last forever (Colossians 3:1-2). In this final episode of the Walking in Wisdom series, we’re stepping back to see the bigger picture—how wisdom not only guides our daily decisions but prepares us for eternity.

✅ Are we investing in what truly lasts—knowing Christ, growing in holiness, and pointing...

But 1 Corinthians 13:7 reminds us that love “believes all things” and “hopes all things.” What does that look like in daily life? It’s not about ignoring wisdom or discernment, but about extending grace, choosing trust over doubt, and reflecting the love of Christ in how we think about and...
