The Great Exchange Isaiah 61:3 “To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.” — Isaiah 61:3 Life has a way of trying to break us. Loss, regret, failure, heartbreak, shame, each can leave behind ashes of what once was. There are moments when we feel like everything around us has been consumed, and all we can do is sit in the ruins. But Isaiah 61:3 offers a hope that doesn't just rebuild, it transforms.

When God Takes to Give Something Greater Sometimes, God has to take something away to give us something better.

It never misses, never fails, and never fades away. When God speaks, things happen.

FAITHFUL NOT FLASHY Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” —1 Corinthians 4:2 There's a simple truth tucked into this small verse that can reshape the way we view our lives: God isn't looking for flashy. He's looking for faithful. When Paul says, “It is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful,” he's reminding us that we are stewards of all that God has given us—our time, our talents, our voices, our influence, our opportunities. None of it is truly ours. It's all on loan from Heaven, and one day, we'll give an account for what we did with what we were given. Music By: Mike Outland

Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

THE VIEW FROM THE MIRROR Psalm 139:16 (KJV) – “Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.” Every morning, we all stand before a mirror. It's a routine part of life as we get ready for the day ahead. But beyond the surface, beyond the reflection we see, there's a deeper question waiting to be asked: Who is looking back at me? Is it the real you? Or is it the version you've carefully crafted over time? Music Composed By: Mike Outland

THIS IS THE LIFE PODCAST There's something powerful about what happened in the garden of Gethsemane. It seems to be late in the evening, and Jesus knew what was coming—suffering, betrayal and the cross. He walked a little farther into the garden, fell on His face, and prayed, “O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.” In that moment, we see Jesus fully engaged in His humanity. He felt the weight and the pain of what was ahead. He wasn't rushing toward the cross. He was honest. He didn't want to suffer. He asked the Father if there was another way. Music Composed By: Mike Outland

What Is Your Giant Today? No matter how big your struggle may seem, God is greater.

THIS IS THE LIFE PODCAST “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” — Romans 8:28 We all have those moments that we replay in our minds like old movie reels. Perhaps wishing you could go back and do things differently. A conversation you could have handled with more grace, or path you would avoid if we had only known where it led. But here's the honest truth: even if we could go back and do some things over, we'd likely just make different mistakes. Different choices might lead us to different people or places, but they wouldn't make us perfect. We would likely just trade one set of regrets for another.

Life has a way of pressing in on us. Sometimes, it presses gently in the form of daily stress or an uncertain outcome, Perhaps it's a prayer that hasn't yet been answered. But other times, it presses so hard we feel like we can't breathe. The truth is that pain comes in all shapes and sizes. For someone today, it's a health crisis. For another, it might be a broken relationship or a loss that leaves an aching emptiness. And then there's the hidden kind, the internal battles, that bring a sense of being unseen or misunderstood or alone. And yet, tucked into Romans 8:18 is a perspective that lifts our eyes from the heaviness of “now” and turns them toward the promise of “not yet.” Romans 8:18 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Music Composed By: Mike Outland
