We all face storms — some caused by others, some allowed by God, and some that we steer into ourselves. Acts 27 shows what happens when we ignore God’s counsel and choose our own way… and the incredible faithfulness of God even in the middle of the chaos we created.

His mercy meets us in the mess, His presence steadies us in the waves, and His grace leads us home when we finally choose to...

Why does God allow hard, painful things into our lives? In this message from 2 Corinthians 12, we learn that the “thorn in the flesh” isn’t punishment—it’s grace.  While we constantly ask God to remove the hardship, He often gives us something better: the sustaining grace that is always enough.

God’s mercy deserves a reasonable response. In Romans 12, Paul shows us what that response looks like: offering ourselves fully to God, refusing to be shaped by the world, and allowing Him to transform our minds.

Mercy means we don’t get what we do deserve; grace means we receive what we don’t deserve. When we understand the weight of both, the only reasonable response is a life surrendered to Christ and...

Everyone longs to be loved — but not all love heals. In this message from 1 Corinthians 13, Pastor Terry shows us the “more excellent way,” revealing what real, Christ-shaped love looks like. This kind of love is patient, kind, steady, and sacrificial… a love that doesn’t quit, doesn’t retaliate, and doesn’t keep score. When the Holy Spirit works this love into our lives, it transforms how we treat people, how we respond to hurt, a...

Prayer is one of the greatest privileges of the Christian life. Prayer gives us access to the highest office - the Almighty God. Prayer isn’t a ritual or a formula. It’s an open invitation into the presence of the living God.

Whether you’re praying for healing, for help, or for hope, this conversation will remind you that the veil has been torn, the way is open, and the Father is listening.

In Acts 16, we see grace reach Paul, flow through Paul, and ultimately break through the hardened heart of the jailer. This message reminds us that grace received always leads to grace extended — even when it’s undeserved. Be encouraged as you learn how God’s grace can anchor your mind, heal your heart, and open doors for the gospel in your everyday life.
