Join us as we dive into the truth that God speaks over us: You are more than enough.

Christ chose to serve us, even when we didn’t deserve it. He left heaven to become a servant to all, showing us that serving isn’t a burden—it’s a blessing.

Thank you, Malachi Watson, for last Sabbath’s inspiring message! He challenged us to step out of the crowd and choose to follow Jesus, even when it's hard. Too often, we let fear of judgment or labels keep us stagnant in our faith. Malachi reminded us that while it's easy to blend in, true transformation comes when we choose to stand out for Christ. The question we must all answer: Does He know your name? Join us as we reflect on the power of stepping out in faith and the life-changing experience of being known by the King.
