Romans 10:16-21 | Pastor Rick

In 1 Samuel 16, God closes Saul’s chapter and sends Samuel to Bethlehem to anoint David—the kid Jesse didn’t even bring in from the sheep. Heaven’s hiring isn’t about height or résumés; God looks at hearts. Samuel obeys while afraid, taking the next step God gives—not a full blueprint. Where He guides, He provides. Ordinary faithfulness becomes the launchpad for extraordinary calling as the Spirit comes upon David to lead. Be faithful in small things, brave in uncertain things, and expect surprises—God moves past appearances, writes the story, and He has the last word.

2 Peter 3:8-17 | Dan Finfrock

Living In a Hostile World

Peter shepherds a persecuted church toward a distinct way of life in a hostile world: cultivate unity and compassion; refuse retaliation and choose blessing; bridle the tongue, pursue peace, and trust God’s justice; set Christ apart in your heart and stand courageous; be ready to give a gentle, respectful reason for your hope; and keep a clear conscience so your conduct shames slander. Suffering for doing good becomes a witness when Christ is Lord in our hearts.

“God isn’t looking for superstars—He’s looking for people who say, ‘Lord, here I am. Use me.’”

Genesis 9 | Pastor Greg

God restarts humanity with a blessing and a calling: “be fruitful and multiply,” steward creation, and honor the sacredness of life. He widens the diet yet commands reverence for blood—“for the life…is in the blood”—foreshadowing Christ’s reconciling sacrifice. The rainbow seals His covenant, inviting fearful hearts to move forward: “You can leave the safety net of the ark and venture out.” Noah’s stumble and his sons’ responses draw a line between exposing shame and covering in love. This passage shapes a people who value every life made in God’s image, practice mercy over mockery, and step into God’s world as faithful stewards under His promise.
