In Acts 8 we follow Philip as God leads him to a road where he meets a man reading from the Old Testament. In this moment, he is invited to share his first hand experience of following Jesus, and the man’s life is forever changed. How might God be opening doors and creating changes for us to share the good news in this season?
Jesus calls His followers to live differently — like salt that preserves and light that shines. As citizens of God’s kingdom, we are invited to influence the world around us while staying rooted in God’s truth. Jesus names what it means to surprise the world with grace, purpose, and faithfulness.
Jesus opens the Sermon on the Mount with a surprising picture of who is truly blessed. In a world chasing power, success, and comfort, Jesus reminds those who are on the margins and struggling that God is still at work in their lives. Together, we’ll discover how God’s kingdom reshapes our expectations of the good life.
Even after profound encounters with God, waiting can expose impatience, fear, and misplaced trust. The golden calf reminds us that in-between seasons will always form us toward either deeper faith or false substitutes for control and certainty.
