Healthy relationships with others start with a healthy relationship with God, as we surrender to Him and allow Him to renew our minds. “Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2).

The church is God’s family, called to support, encourage, and be present with one another in both suffering and celebration (1 Corinthians 12:24–27). Because Jesus is our peace, we don’t have to walk through anxiety, grief, or hardship alone (Ephesians 2:14).

Your anxiety does not define you—your identity is found in Christ, who makes you new. “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, and see, the new has come!” (2 Corinthians 5:17).

Anxiety entered the world through sin, but God meets us with grace, covers our shame, and calls us out of hiding (Genesis 3:7-10, 21). Even in fear and uncertainty, we can respond in faith, trusting that God can work through brokenness for good (Genesis 50:20).

Anxiety can feel overwhelming, but Jesus reminds us, “Don’t worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself” (Matthew 6:34). Join us as we learn to seek first God’s kingdom and trust Him with our needs (Matthew 6:33).

Jesus calls us to remain in His love by obeying His command to love one another sacrificially (John 15:9-13). Like the early church in Acts 2:42-47, may we choose unity, prayer, generosity, and fellowship so others can see Christ through us.

What is our mission as followers of Christ? It starts with a simple but profound calling from Matthew 28:19-20 -- go and make disciples of all nations.

But before we can make disciples, we have to be disciples. A disciple is someone whose life is focused on being with Jesus, becoming like Jesus, and doing what Jesus did. That journey begins with a response to the Gospel, a new identity in Christ, and staying rooted in Him daily (John 15:4-5).

Discipleship is not a solo journey. It means loving God and loving people (Matthew 22:37-39), and investing in the lives of those around us just as Paul urged Timothy in 2 Timothy 2:2.

What needs to change for you to prioritize your walk with Jesus? Join us as we explore what it means to live out this mission together at Pea Ridge.

Jesus, our new Joshua, leads us into a rest that began at creation and will be fulfilled in the new creation. Total trust in God drives out fear and opens us to His ways of justice and love.

Every day is a new opportunity. Will you enter His rest?

The wilderness is not the end of the story. After nine weeks exploring this biblical theme, one truth keeps rising to the surface: even in the hardest seasons, God's rest is still available to us today.

The author of Hebrews points to Israel's wilderness wandering as a warning and an invitation. Those who hardened their hearts missed the promised rest. But the promise remains open. As Hebrews 4:7 reminds us, God specifies a certain day -- today -- to hear His voice and keep your heart soft.

Jesus, our new Joshua, leads us into a rest that began at creation and will be fulfilled in the new creation. Total trust in God drives out fear and opens us to His ways of justice and love.

Every day is a new opportunity. Will you enter His rest?

The Bread of Life explores the miracle of Jesus feeding the five thousand (Mark 6:30–44) alongside His declaration, "I am the Bread of Life" (John 6:47–71). Jesus not only meets our physical needs but also offers Himself as the true source of lasting life, calling us to trust Him completely and find our deepest satisfaction in Him.
