Being Like David

 The Old Testament hero, David, illustrates that not every act in the Bible is something that Christians should emulate. David seems very comfortable with violence, like having Uriah killed and slaughtering non-combatants in order to keep his duplicity a secret (1 Sam 27). What sins do you justify in order to make your life easier?

Pushy Jesus!

Jesus pushed past “eye for an eye” and called His followers to love their enemies by refusing revenge. Violence may be the world’s cycle (Matt 5:37-42)—but it doesn’t have to be ours. How can you choose the harder love that breaks the pattern?

 The apostle Paul invites us to step back from our selfish and hypocritical ways and enjoy each other with love and respect (Romans 12). Who do you find hard to love? How do you step back from yourself and love them as Christ loved you?

Pastor Awesome's Super Spirit Soaker

 Jesus promises that those who believe in Him will carry His Spirit like streams of living water (John 7:37-40). When people meet us, do they taste that refreshment or something far less life‑giving. Some days we overflow; other days it feels like the tide has slipped away. Yet the comfort remains—His Spirit never leaves, even when our hearts feel dry.

Why Did You Leave the Boat?

 Peter steps into danger alone and sinks (Matt 14); faith grows stronger when shared. Community steadies you, lifts you, and helps you walk where you couldn’t alone. Faith deepens not by isolation but by Christians holding one another up in the storm.

Are You Resisting Your Newness?

Jacob wrestled with God until he became a new man (Gen 32). While the wrestling in Genesis was physical, we might resist God in our spirit or will. How are you resisting God's call to be someone new?

Who's Your Servant?

In Matthew 20, a bid for status meets Jesus’s simple truth: real authority flows from God and is proven through service. The question still stands—are you trying to own people or serve them.
