Monday Mission – Rejoice Always

The Bible gives us over 500 Commandments to guide our lives.  I’d like to spend part of this week reviewing a few of those.  We’ll stick with this verse and break it apart.

Monday Mission - Steer the Right Way

The book of James is one of my favorite books of the Bible. It just seems so practical and easy to understand, yet it holds such incredible insight. James 3:3–6 is a powerful passage.

Monday Mission-Be a Shining Light

When I was a kid, one of my favorite songs was "This Little Light of Mine". Little did I know until recently the interesting history there was behind this song and that the original author of this song is unknown.

Monday Mission - Running the Race

Life is full of distractions. It seems like something is always fighting for our attention—especially in a world dominated by social media. Companies literally pay to capture our focus through ads, videos, and content. With so much noise, it’s no wonder we may struggle to stay focused—whether it’s spending time with family, working on a project, building better habits, or pursuing a side passion. So, how do we give our time and energy to what truly matters, especially in the way God intended?

Monday Mission - Finding the Joy

Happy Monday morning! I’m glad you’re here. Can we do a quick summer check-in? How is your summer going? Do you feel like you’re living your best life, hitting up the pool, going to the community baseball games, visiting your local farmer’s market and spending time in the sun? Or does it feel like this summer has been full of unexpected challenges, unforeseen frustrations and big or little inconveniences? Maybe a mix of both?
