Jesus’s call to mission is an invitation to deep joy and intimacy with God. This deep joy and intimacy comes when we are given eyes to see the invisible, a heart to feel the immeasurable love of God and faith to believe the impossible.

Obedience to God will mean stepping outside of our comfort zone

Whether you’re at work, at home, or out in the world, turn your daily routine into a life filled with purpose and meaning. Discover and redeem your purpose in every waking hour, and see God’s glory in both your life and work.

We dig into what God’s really like and how he feels about us, even when we're at our lowest. Instead of being out to punish us, God’s heart is all about grace and renewal. He’s not into temporary fixes but promises a lasting change through a new covenant fulfilled in Jesus. It’s a powerful reminder of his steadfast love and commitment, giving us confidence in his unshakeable promises and inviting us to live with real assurance of his grace.

“I know the plans I have for you”. In the midst of their despair, God has a promise of hope for His people.

The people of God in Jeremiah were on the precipice of judgment. The Babylonians would soon come and take them into captivity. In the face of difficulty the word of the Lord through Jeremiah once again confronts Israel as to their faith. Will they trust in themselves, or will they submit to the Lord? By contrasting two types of tree, the prophet Jeremiah points to the reality of the choices we make in regard to trust, as well as the outcomes of that choice.

One of Jeremiah’s key themes is that of tearing down and building up. In this passage the prophet Jeremiah seeks to tear down Israel’s inappropriate attraction to idols while building up their vision of God. God, unlike the useless idols of the world, is the unique, living, and eternal king who is worthy of Judah’s worship, as well as ours.
