Worship That Costs Something

Costly worship isn’t flashy or polished. It doesn’t always sound beautiful or feel easy. But it’s the kind of worship that moves God’s heart.

Worship That Renews the Mind

Letting Praise Reshape Thought Patterns Worship is not only a song we sing—it’s a posture we adopt. And when that posture is aligned with truth, it has the power to transform how we think.

Worship in the Waiting

When Delays Become an Invitation to Deeper Trust Waiting is not something most of us do well. Whether you’re stuck in traffic, waiting for a medical diagnosis, or praying for breakthrough in your family, waiting often feels like the absence of movement. It feels like you’re somehow being forgotten. And worship in the waiting? That […]

Worship that Rekindles Wonder

When the Familiar Becomes Sacred Again There’s something about September that invites us to see differently. The light shifts. Mornings carry a hint of crispness. Leaves start to flirt with change.

Meditation During the Invitation to REST

An Invitation to Rest Imagine that you see two empty chairs facing the water. It’s a silent invitation to rest. The horizon is clear. You do not see clouds, a sunrise nor sunset. There are no ships, birds or fish to be seen. You do not see land on the far side. You do not see another person. I […]

Resting in the Wilderness of Shur

When You Feel Hemmed In, You’re Not Alone We all walk through seasons we wouldn’t choose. You know the kind—dry, disorienting, disappointing. The job that drains you. The relationship that doesn’t seem to heal. The waiting that stretches far too long. Scripture calls this the wilderness, and one of the first wildernesses God led His […]

Permission to Rest (R.E.S.T.)

Permission to rest

You Are Already Invited We live in a world that rewards performance. The more productive you are, the more value you seem to have. The busier you are, the more important you feel. Slowing down feels countercultural—almost rebellious. But here’s the truth: God has already given you permission to rest. You don’t have to wait […]
