“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another” Proverbs 27:17 We have spent the last few weeks talking about roots that grow deep. Being rooted in Jesus, God’s Word, and in prayer. This week, we’ll look at growing deeper in community. God never designed us to grow alone. From the very beginning, Scripture shows…
Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Our devotion this morning was on being content. Contentment doesn’t usually come from having more—it comes from noticing what’s already there. We often rush past the quiet blessings of our ordinary lives: a safe place to sleep,…
“Savior, like a shepherd lead us, much we need Thy tender care…”— Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us I grew up singing some of the old hymns of faith, which are deeply theological. One of the hymns was Savior, Like A Shepherd Lead Us. Being led by Christ begins with admitting a simple truth: we…
“Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!” — Psalm 8:1 Psalm 8 begins and ends with wonder. David looks up at the night sky—the moon, the stars, the vastness of creation—and is overwhelmed. In the face of such greatness, he asks an honest question: “What is mankind that you are…
Three Point had its humble beginning as a Bible study of just fifteen people meeting on a beautiful outdoor patio in August of 2007. In September of the same year, the first “public” meetings were held in a rented public use building with a vision for intentionally sharing the message and love of Jesus with others and by encouraging them to investigate…
Advent is a season of longing. We have lit the candles of Hope and Peace—reminders that God steps into our waiting with promises strong enough to hold us and presence close enough to steady us. But this week, we turn to a theme that often surprises us in the waiting: Joy. Joy is different from…
“The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light…” Isaiah 9:2 Advent begins by acknowledging darkness — our struggles, fears, and the things that feel heavy. God doesn’t wait for everything to get better before He brings hope. He sends light into the darkness. Hope is not pretending everything is fine; it’s trusting…
“Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.” — Luke 5:16 There is something sacred about stillness. In a world that pushes us to hurry, measure, perform, and keep moving, quiet places become more than escapes—they become invitations. Recently, I have had the opportunity to walk through woods and along a lakeside with Mirek, and…
“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.” — Psalm 107:1 The holiday season has a way of stirring our hearts—lights, music, family moments, and all of the traditions old and new. But in the middle of it all, God invites us to something deeper: a heart of gratitude that…
“Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7 At first glance, “submit” and “resist” seem like opposites. One sounds like giving up; the other sounds like fighting back. But James uses them together as two sides of the same spiritual coin. When we submit to God, we…
