As adults, we can navigate change pretty well, but younger kids are much more likely to struggle with it. As parents, we need to patiently listen to our children, answer their questions honestly, and shepherd them through the upheaval of change — and ultimately point them to the unchanging love and security of God.

What are the credentials for ministry? That is what we look at this week as we follow Paul's teaching in 2 Corinthians. Paul is experiencing challenges to his authority, but instead of defending himself he points to the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit—lives transformed in Christ. We are reminded that our sufficiency comes from God alone, and ministry has no power apart from Him. It is by God's grace that we are saved, equipped, and sent to share the Hope of Christ. Join us on Live in the Light as we learn the true credentials for Ministry from 2 Corinthians 3:1-6.

In the summer months, we know that the weather can get extremely hot and humid. Being exposed to those temperatures for long periods can even be dangerous. Thankfully, when we’re wise, stay hydrated, wear sunscreen, and find shade, we can make the most out of a hot day. The Bible tells us that in this life we will have trouble, but we can take heart because Jesus has overcome the world. Do we prepare for hard times like Jesus has told us to? We’ll learn more today with Pastor Max Girgenti.

We often confuse "gracious" with good manners — but biblical grace means something far bigger. Dr. John explores this attribute through the story of Israel's golden calf in Exodus 34, where God reveals Himself as merciful and gracious even to a people who deserved judgment. He unpacks why grace isn't God's leftovers, doled out sparingly, but an overflowing abundance poured out on those who never earned it.

The Kind Attributes of God: We often set God's love against His justice, as if the two pulled in different directions. But Scripture reveals a fuller picture. In this five-message series, Dr. John explores the kind attributes of God — His faithfulness, love, goodness, grace, and wisdom — showing how each one reveals a God who never gives less than the ideal, and whose kindness shapes everything He does in our lives.
