Zacchaeus tried to stay hidden in a tree, but Jesus saw him anyway. In this episode, we explore the truth that God sees us, even when we don’t expect it, and how being truly seen can lead to real transformation.

In this week’s SSBS (Sunday School Bible Stories) episode, we dive into the incredible truth that God can take whatever we place in His hands—no matter how small—and turn it into something powerful. Using the story of the five loaves and two fish, we explore how Jesus multiplied a simple offering and fed thousands, reminding us that God doesn’t wait for us to be fully prepared or perfectly qualified. He equips the called.

Whether you feel like what you have isn’t enough, or you’re stepping into something bigger than yourself, this episode is your reminder that God specializes in taking small things and making them great. All He asks is that we bring what we have.

In this week’s SSBS (Sunday School Bible Stories) episode, we look back at the story of Father Abraham — a man who trusted God even when he didn’t have all the answers. Abraham’s journey reminds us that faith isn’t always easy, but it’s always worth it. When God gives a promise, He follows through, and Abraham’s life is proof that God’s timing and faithfulness never fail.

Just like Abraham, we’re invited to trust that God is the same today, still faithful, still guiding, and still writing His promises on our hearts.

In this episode of SSBS (Sunday School Bible Stories), we dive into the story of Peter walking on water — a powerful reminder that faith isn’t about calm seas, but about trusting Jesus even when the wind blows. Peter stepped out in faith, but when the wind rose, he started to sink, just like we sometimes do when life gets stormy.

This story reminds us that even in our moments of doubt, Jesus reaches out His hand. The same God who calmed the waves is still steadying hearts today.

What do you say to yourself when no one else is listening? In this episode, we dive into the power of self-talk, how the words we speak over ourselves can either lift us up or tear us down.

Loss is something we all face, and it doesn’t always come with answers we can understand. In this episode, I share encouragement from Scripture about how God is near to the brokenhearted and how it’s okay to grieve. The Bible reminds us that even Jesus wept, showing us that our tears are not a sign of weakness but a part of healing. If you’re walking through a season of loss, may these words remind you that you’re not alone and that God’s presence is with you in the middle of the pain.
