Friday Devotional – Growing in Faith
We’ve been slowly walking through the Book of Psalms, and this week (Psalm 60) talks about 10 things God has done, 5 things David is requesting, and 10 different things God has spoken. But what stood out to me is how the passage conveys
Friday Devotional - Lessons in the Leftovers
Who likes leftovers? 😊 Most of the time, I do – leftover soup, leftover taco meat, leftover fried rice – all good things! Today we are going to talk about how Jesus uses leftovers…

Friday Devotional-How Deep the Father's Love for Us
Songs and music are my worship language and help bring me closer to God. One of my favorite songs for the Easter Season that has been on my heart lately is “How the Deep the Father’s love for Us” by Stuart Townend.

Friday Devotional - What is Faith?

I have faith that he will do what he says he can do.
Friday Devotional – Source of Strength
In my lifetime, now more than ever, we seem to have a country in turmoil, there is craziness and danger everywhere, and slander seems to be the norm. It makes me angry sometimes. It makes me feel powerless…like there’s nothing I can do. But there are answers found in Scripture.
Friday Devotional - Avoiding Meaningless Quarrels
Can you think of a time that you got into an argument over something small and unimportant? What was it about? What triggers us to feel the need to be right even if we are wrong, and about meaningless topics?
