What Kind of Friend Are You? | Find Your People

We all want deep friendships and meaningful community, but what if finding your people starts with becoming the kind of person who shows up for others? In Luke 10:25-37, Jesus tells the story of the Good Samaritan and challenges us to move beyond convenience, comfort, and proximity into a life of compassion and intentional neighbor-love. This message explores what it means to become the kind of friend who notices people, moves toward them, enters their mess, and stays when it’s difficult. You don’t find your people by accident—you become the kind of person who shows up for people. 📖 Scripture: Luke 10:25-37 📍 Poplar Ridge Christian Church

How should I lead my home? | Home Sweet Home

Yesterday, we looked at Jesus’ words in Matthew 7:24–27 and were reminded that every home is built on something. The storms of life will come, but homes built on the foundation of Christ can stand strong. Our prayer is that our homes would become the safest places on earth—not because they’re perfect, but because they’re filled with the love, grace, peace, and truth of Jesus. When we build our marriages, parenting, relationships, and daily lives on Him, we create homes that are steady even in the middle of life’s storms.

Legacy That Lasts | Home Sweet Home

In 2 Timothy 2:1–2, Paul the Apostle reminds Timothy that faith is meant to be passed on. The greatest legacy we leave may not be money, success, or accomplishments but what happens inside our homes. The conversations around the table, the prayers whispered at night, the example we set, and the faith we model all shape the next generation. This message is about building a home where faith lasts longer than we do.
