Awakening to Life - Let the dryness drive your roots deeper

Living Hope

Resurrection life invites us into a different way of seeing. Through the living hope of 1 Peter and the challenge of Matthew 25, we are reminded that the kingdom of God is not something distant we wait for, but an inheritance we are called to live from today.  Jesus meets us in the hungry, the thirsty, the lonely, and the overlooked. The places the world avoids are often the very places where the treasures of the kingdom are hidden. As we learn to listen well, love generously, and hold every person as sacred, resurrection life begins to overflow through ordinary acts of grace. We are invited into the Kingdom to inherit it and to reveal it. Camp in This Week: * 1 Peter 1  * Matthew 25:31–46  We would love to hear your story!

The Shepherd and the Valley

Psalm 23 reminds us that resurrection life begins with knowing the Shepherd. He is the One who leads, restores, guides, protects, prepares, anoints, and shelters. Even when we walk through valleys, we are not abandoned. We are accompanied.  Too often we live from a place of lack, fear, striving, or uncertainty. But the invitation of resurrection life is to rest in the truth that He is with us. As we learn to trust His gentle leading, we discover that we lack nothing, we are not alone, and His goodness and kindness continue to pursue us.  We would love to hear your story!

A Heart of Flesh

As we continue our journey through the Resurrection Life series, we are invited to examine the condition of our hearts. We see that resurrection is not only about what Jesus has done for us, but about what He longs to awaken within us now.  A soft heart remains open to compassion, mercy, forgiveness, and love. A hardened heart can restrict the flow of resurrection life. As we stay close to Jesus, He gently removes what has become calloused and restores us to wholehearted love for God and for one another. When we choose grace over judgment, compassion over self-protection, and connection over isolation, resurrection life begins to flow freely through us once again.

What's Your Brand of Generosity? with Pam

FILLED. THRILLED and SPILLED! Pam shares from her own journey of trusting God through seasons of uncertainty and discovering His extravagant generosity. From miraculous provision to simple acts of kindness, she reminds us that generosity is not primarily about money, but about a heart shaped by the abundant love of God. As we receive His lavish grace, we are invited to make space to be interrupted, to see the people in front of us, and to let the love of Jesus overflow through every part of our lives. Filled by His abundance, thrilled by His goodness, and spilled out for Jesus. We would love to hear your story!

Called to Rise

We’ve been tracing resurrection, not just what Jesus did, but what His rising means for us now.  Through Lazarus, the virgins, and the wedding feast, we’re being reminded that we’ve all been given a lamp, but the oil comes through intimacy. And it’s easy to drift. Distraction, distance, and even good things can quietly pull us away from the table that’s been set for us. The invitation is still open. Like Jonah, we can run, resist, or make excuses. But even there, God is still drawing us back, not to pressure us, but to bring us into life again. So we return. We make space. We come close. Because it’s in His presence that the oil is restored, and from that place, we are called to rise. ------------------------------- Scriptures to reflect on for next week: Jonah (entire book) We would love to hear your story!
