In this message from 1 Corinthians 16:13, we are called to live the Christian life with intention and courage. Paul gives four clear commands: watch, stand firm in the faith, be brave, and be strong—reminding us that followers of Jesus don’t drift into faithfulness; we pursue it with purpose.

Everyone longs to be loved — but not all love heals. In this message from 1 Corinthians 13, Pastor Terry shows us the “more excellent way,” revealing what real, Christ-shaped love looks like. This kind of love is patient, kind, steady, and sacrificial… a love that doesn’t quit, doesn’t retaliate, and doesn’t keep score. When the Holy Spirit works this love into our lives, it transforms how we treat people, how we respond to hurt, and how we reflect Jesus to the world.

Chaos is unavoidable, but it doesn’t have to rule your heart. In this powerful message from 2 Thessalonians, we learn how believers can stay settled even when their world feels shaken. God has already given us everlasting consolation, good hope by grace, and the promise that He will continue to comfort and establish us. No matter what you’re facing, you can stand fast because God is faithful.

In today’s episode of Truth for the Day, we welcome worship artist JJ Weeks for a conversation about calling, obedience, worship, and living with eternity in view. JJ shares his story of surrender from early musical roots, to a defining encounter with God that set the direction of his life and ministry.

Lean in and learn how to walk authentically with Jesus, how to trust God through seasons of uncertainty, and how to carry the weight of ministry while staying grounded in purpose.

Whether you’re discerning God’s calling or needing fresh encouragement, this episode will strengthen your faith and remind you that the battle belongs to the Lord.

Prayer is one of the greatest privileges of the Christian life. Prayer gives us access to the highest office - the Almighty God. Prayer isn’t a ritual or a formula. It’s an open invitation into the presence of the living God.

Whether you’re praying for healing, for help, or for hope, this conversation will remind you that the veil has been torn, the way is open, and the Father is listening.

What provokes you? Traffic? Offense? Frustration? In this message, we learn that instead of ranting, complaining, or withdrawing, the follower of Jesus is called to lead with compassion. When our hearts are stirred the right way, we are provoked to pursue lost people with grace and with the truth of the Gospel.

In Acts 16, we see grace reach Paul, flow through Paul, and ultimately break through the hardened heart of the jailer. This message reminds us that grace received always leads to grace extended — even when it’s undeserved. Be encouraged as you learn how God’s grace can anchor your mind, heal your heart, and open doors for the gospel in your everyday life.
