Love

Withering and destructive…that’s an accurate description for the heat wave we’re having in Houston this entire summer, so it seems.  If you drive by our church right now it has never been more obvious to see which part of our grass is sprinkled regularly and which parts aren’t.   You know what else is withering and destructive?  Your sinfulness.  My sinfulness.  And…

How high are the heavens above the earth?  It’s safe to say, incredibly high!  So high that is is immeasurable and mind boggling!   What kind of power, wisdom and creativity must God have in order to create our galaxy, stars, solar system, earth, and even us!  Even more than that – He isn’t just immeasurable in his…

Today we’re asking you a silly question… Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be an animal for a day? Maybe a super fast cheetah? Or a beloved dog?  What about a cockroach? Probably not a cockroach or a rat, right?!  They’re disgusting!  In todays devotion we talk about the length that Jesus went to save us. The Divine God took on lowly…

Last Sunday was Confirmation Sunday at our church!  It’s a time when young people from our congregation who have been studying the Word, stand up, confess their faith and prepare their hearts to take communion. Each student picks a confirmation verse for them to hold close to their heart for their whole life. Today’s verse, chosen by Lily Hajenga, is Psalm…

This Sunday is Confirmation Sunday at our church! It is a time when young people from our congregation who have been studying the Word, stand up and confess their faith and prepare their hearts to take communion. Each student picks a confirmation verse for them to hold close to their heart for their whole life. Today’s verse, chosen by Kaylee Smith, is Psalm 23:6.…

How would you talk in the presence of a King?   If you were in the presence of King Charles, or Queen Elizabeth (when she was still living)…you would be very careful in the way that you spoke and addressed them. You would use words like, “sir”, and “your highness.” You…

Today Pastor Buege is in Jerusalem and we’re going to be looking back at a sermon when the enemies and Jesus himself were in that same city! Jesus was on trial with His enemies and they really wanted Him to admit that He was the son of God…not so they could worship Him…but so they could kill him.…

You might be wondering what’s so happy about Ash Wednesday when it’s usually a somber day. Ashes aren’t very happy. Everything on this earth has an expiration date, EXCEPT there is something that does not. Join us for todays devotion as we dig into this message of what does, and what does not turn to ashes and how it can be a happy thing! To watch by…

God is Love.  As we’ve seen in this devotion series on the characteristics of God, he’s also triune, holy, eternal, all-knowing, everywhere, powerful, faithful and more…but all of that would only terrify us if He weren’t also LOVE!  Let’s look at Psalm 103: 8-12 together.  There we find God’s abounding love that never…

When you hear the word “power” – what do you think about? An Olympic body builder who can lift a shocking amount of weight? A huge storm like Hurricane Harvey or Ian that destroys homes and buildings?
