Today’s Bible Verse: “I will lead the blind Israel down a new path, guiding them along a unfamiliar way. I will brighten the darkness before them and smooth out the road ahead of them, Yes, I will indeed do these things; I will not forsake them.” — Isaiah 42:16 Isaiah 42:16 speaks hope into seasons of uncertainty. God promises to guide His people along roads they have never traveled, bringing light into dark places and smoothing what feels impossible. When the path ahead seems unclear, this verse reminds us we are not navigating alone. Want to listen without ads?

Got a question? Let us know!Made for Mondays | STEPSStep Three: The Decision — “I Think I Will Let Him”This week on Made for Mondays, Heather sits down with Jamey, Chelle, and Tyler to unpack Step Three of STEPS: The Decision—the moment where we stop white-knuckling our way forward and begin practicing surrender.After weekend chitchat and reflecting on this week's Bible reading from Genesis 49, Exodus 1–10, and Matthew 15–18, the conversation turns toward one of the most deceptively difficult spiritual shifts: moving from trying harder to trusting deeper.Pastor Jamey reminds us that we cannot heal our inner world through willpower alone. But when we release control and trust God's care, He leads us toward shalom—not just peace as calm, but peace as wholeness. Surrender, as the group explores, isn't giving up on life; it's giving up our own way so Jesus can form something better on the other side.Here's what they dive into:• The small places control shows up From thermostats and dishwashers to driving directions and group texts, the group laughs—and then gets honest—about how control sneaks into everyday life. Those same instincts often follow us into our faith, especially when life feels uncertain.• “God, fix this” vs. “God, lead me” The conversation names a tension many of us recognize: praying for relief without actually wanting transformation. Whether it's a relationship, a stressful season, or a recurring emotional pattern, the group reflects on how surrender often feels more threatening than the pain we already know.• When surrender feels like loss Looking at Jesus' words in Matthew 16, the group wrestles with the idea that surrender can feel less like peace and more like losing control. What does surrender actually look like in normal, everyday life—and how do we take a concrete step when resistance shows up?• The parts we give… and the parts we guard Quoting C.S. Lewis, the group reflects on the truth that Jesus doesn't want a portion of us—He wants all of us. They discuss which parts of life feel easiest to offer God, and which parts we carefully protect, along with how that changes when we trust that Jesus is freeing us, not undoing us.• Praying differently Where are we most tempted to pray “fix this”—and what would it sound like to pray “lead me” instead? The conversation highlights how community plays a vital role in keeping us honest when we slide back into control mode, reminding us that surrender isn't meant to be practiced alone.• Open hands, not clenched fists Jamey revisits the powerful image from Sunday's message: clenched fists versus open hands. The group reflects on what it means to physically and spiritually release control—and what it looks like to place something we're holding tightly back into God's care.• A faithful next step Rather than trying to be the Savior, the episode closes by inviting listeners to take one faithful next step this week—perhaps inviting a trusted person into the decision so surrender becomes a lived practice, not just a good idea.Join Us This SundayWe're continuing STEPS and walking this journey together.
