In Mission and the Fraser Valley, many vulnerable young people — facing homelessness, addiction, mental health struggles, and aging out of the foster system — actually choose to sleep on the streets rather than in shelters with adults. The need for a safe, youth-specific space is real and urgent.MY House was born when a local team took an abandoned building and turned it into exactly that: a nurturing home. Open since September 2015, it serves young people aged 14–24, welcoming 10 to 28 visitors every single day. It's not just a drop-in — it's a place where youth build life skills, pursue employment, practice relationship skills, and access peer support for recovery. At its heart is a simple but powerful idea: every young person needs at least one trusted adult in their corner.The invitation to love our neighbours is straightforward — show up. Whether supporting Mission Youth House through cooking a meal, doing yard work, giving monthly, or simply spreading awareness, or showing up personally in the life of a youth who is struggling, there are real, tangible ways to be the hands and feet of Jesus to the youth in your neighbourhood.
Matthew #52: Waiting For The Wedding (Matthew 25:1-13) Rob Woodrum (5/31/26) It seems like every culture has a different approach to weddings and the rituals associated with them. This Sunday, as we continue our study in Matthew, we'll be reading about the unusual wedding rituals of ancient Palestine as we study chapter 25:1-13.As you read the parable that Jesus tells, what do you believe the main point is? How comfortable or uncomfortable are you with the topic of the end times? If you knew for sure that Jesus was going to return within the next hour, is there anything you would do differently?It's interesting to note that both sets of girls fell asleep while waiting for the bridegroom during a long delay. The only time the differences began to show up between them was when the alarm was sounded. One group was prepared, one was not.In what ways can we see to it that we are prepared for the reveal of Christ as King?I think this will be an interesting topic for our study – plus, we'll be celebrating Communion – hope you can join us this Sunday at 10 AM!Click here for a pdf of the teaching slideshow.
In the final section of the Olivet Discourse, Jesus gave Hisdisciples a preview of the final judgment of mankind when the Son of Man returned at the end of the age and sat on His glorious throne. This scene shows the fulfillment of Daniel's propheticvision, and gives us a good launching point to study the future judgment. We can quickly see why Jesus was so adamant that His disciples be always ready. A sermon preached by Caleb Stomberg at Legacy Reformed Baptist Church in East Grand Forks, MN on 6-7-26.

[15] To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away. [16] He who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them, and he made five talents more. [17] So also he who had the two talents made two talents more. [18] But he who had received the one talent went and dug in the ground and hid his master’s money. [19] Now after a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them. [20] And he who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five talents more, saying, ‘Master, you delivered to me five talents; here, I have made five talents more.’ [21] His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’ [22] And he also who had the two talents came forward, saying, ‘Master, you delivered to me two talents; here, I have made two talents more.’ [23] His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’ [24] He also who had received the one talent came forward, saying, ‘Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you scattered no seed, [25] so I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. Here, you have what is yours.’ [26] But his master answered him, ‘You wicked and slothful servant! You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I scattered no seed? [27] Then you ought to have invested my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received what was my own with interest. [28] So take the talent from him and give it to him who has the ten talents. [29] For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away. [30] And cast the worthless servant into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’ (ESV) ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ FINANCIALLY SUPPORT THE MORNING MINDSET: (not tax-deductible) -- Become a monthly partner: https://mm-gfk-partners.supercast.com/ -- Underwrite one daily episode: https://MorningMindsetMedia.com/daily-sponsor/ -- Give one-time: https://give.cornerstone.cc/careygreen -- Venmo: @CareyNGreen ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ FOREIGN LANGUAGE VERSIONS OF THIS PODCAST: Subscribe to the SPANISH version: https://MorningMindsetMedia.com/Spanish Subscribe to the HINDI version: https://MorningMindsetMedia.com/Hindi Subscribe to the CHINESE version: https://MorningMindsetMedia.com/Chinese ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ CONTACT: Carey@careygreen.com ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ THEME MUSIC: “King’s Trailer” – Creative Commons 0 | Provided by https://freepd.com/ ***All NON-ENGLISH versions of the Morning Mindset are translated using A.I.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where Hunter invites you to join in a journey through the Scriptures—warming your heart by the fires of God's love. In today's episode for May 8th, 2026, we read from 2 Samuel chapters 15 and 16, Psalm 32, and Matthew 25. As Hunter guides us through the dramatic tale of Absalom's rebellion, David's sorrow, and the lessons of Jesus' parables, we're invited to examine our own hearts, reflect deeply on the call to love others, and find hope and guidance for our daily lives. Settle in, open your Bible, and let's discover together what God has for us today. TODAY'S DEVOTION: This is a parable. It's important to know what we are reading. A parable is typically teaching us something about the nature of reality. Stories peel back what's under the surface. And in this case, Jesus is using a story to peel back a form of religion that is profoundly misguided. It has missed the point that our life in God is a life of love and will find its expression in the way we see all people, even those outside of our group, even those who are unseen by all groups. The religious culture of his day was preoccupied with a lot of things that had the appearance of piety and orthodoxy. A lot was being said about God and God was being leveraged by a lot of people to control and to coerce. God was being used and abused by the culture and by those in power. But he was not being known. This parable peels back what's really going on, and it asks us to examine our hearts. Today, the worst way to read this parable is to look from above and assume that I am a sheep and to use the text to condemn those that we think are goats. Rather, we are invited to sit under these words today and say, I see the goat in my own heart. Lord, I repent. And I ask you to judge this in me. Unmask the lies in my life that make me get it wrong. Help me to see how you see all people, even those who are outside my group, even those who are considered the lowest and the least. Show me those things that stand in the way of me fully understanding who I am in you and who you are for all. And that's the prayer that I have for my own heart. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.

Matthew 25:1-13 - - Apr 26, 2026
CURRENT SERIES - The Torch and the Pail What if we removed every transaction from our faith, every promise of reward, every threat of consequence? An ancient Sufi story tells of an angel carrying a torch to burn down the mansions of heaven and a pail to put out the fires of hell so that we might finally see who truly loves God. Not out of fear. Not to earn mercy. Just love, for love's sake. This series is an invitation to come home to a faith with no strings attached, where perfect love casts out fear, and God desires mercy, not sacrifice. What does it look like to simply love God for the sake of love itself? Come and let's explore this journey of faith together.
Pastor Nelson Akwari continuse our series in Bank Account Theology. A warped perception of God's character leads to fruitlessness. In the Parable of the Talents, the third servant failed not just because he was lazy, but because he viewed the Master through a lens of fear rather than grace. If we view God as a "hard man" who harvests where he has not sown, we will live lives of self-preservation instead of purposeful risk for the Kingdom.
Be faithful with what God gives you.Preached May 3, 2026Pastor Aaron Frasier
Those who are saved will serve the Savior with their gifts but those who only profess to believe will not.
In the Olivet Discourse Jesus explained that no one wouldknow when the Son of Man was going to return. There would be no signs or warning. He could come at any moment. He also taught that His return might be delayed for a long time. His disciples had work to do while He was away. In the Parable of the Talents, Jesus taught His disciples whatit means for Christians to be faithful slaves of our Lord and Master during this age until He comes again. A sermon by Pastor Caleb at Legacy Reformed Baptist Church in East Grand Forks, MN on 5-3-26.
Our series on the Parables of Jesus continues as Pastor Rob Curington examines the Parable of the Ten Bridesmaids as a warning that we must be prepared for Christ's return.
Love for God is expressed by love for people; especially the church. The call of Jesus in this text is to care for the King’s bride and wait for the King’s reward. And the stakes are high. How we respond to Jesus reveals whether we are welcomed into an inheritance in a kingdom prepared for us before the foundations of the world, or into the eternal fire prepared for Satan and his angels.

In the second half of the Olivet Discourse, Jesus gave Hisdisciples four parables to drive home the point that there would be no sign or warning preceding His second coming. They needed to live always ready. In the Parable of the Ten Virgins, Jesus revealed that therewould be a distinction made among those who professed faith between those who truly believed and obeyed, and those whose hearts and lives did not match theirprofession. Between the wise and the foolish. Listen as Pastor Caleb preaches on the Parable of the Ten Virgins from Matthew 25:1-13 at Legacy Reformed Baptist Church in East Grand Forks, MN on 4-26-26.

On today's episode, Pastor Cameron reminds us that we help Christ when we help those who are in the greatest need. When we serve those that the world considers the least, we are serving Him!
While Jesus can return at any moment, He prepares us in these two parables for a possible delay. How do we wait for the King’s return? Jesus calls us to watchfulness and diligence.

Have you ever felt like you know what would help your health… but you just can't seem to follow through? In this episode, we explore what Gospel of Matthew 25 reveals about fear, faith, and stewardship—and how this connects directly to your health journey. This conversation is for the Christian woman who desires more energy, peace, and alignment with God's design for her body, but feels stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure what to do next. We take a faith-centered, whole-person approach to health—focusing not just on what to do, but on how to move forward with wisdom, discernment, and trust in God. Understanding the Parable of the Talents and Stewardship In Matthew 25, Jesus shares a parable about three servants entrusted with different amounts of wealth. Two servants stewarded what they were given and multiplied it One servant, out of fear, hid what he was given A “talent” in this context represented a significant amount—roughly 20 years' worth of wages. This wasn't a small responsibility. It was something valuable entrusted to them. In the same way, we've been entrusted with: Our bodies Our health Our time and energy Wisdom we've gained The question becomes: What are we doing with what we've been given? How Fear Can Quietly Hold You Back The third servant didn't lack resources—he was afraid. He described his master as harsh and responded by doing nothing. Sometimes, we do the same. Not out of rebellion—but out of: Fear of getting it wrong Fear of trying again after disappointment Fear of change or the unknown And often, this fear is tied to a distorted view of God. But Scripture reminds us: God is compassionate God is faithful God does not abandon us When we begin to remember who God truly is, it changes how we respond. What It Looks Like to Feel Stuck (Even When You Care About Your Health) Feeling stuck doesn't always mean you don't care. It can look like: Staying in the same routines, even when you feel prompted to change Choosing comfort over obedience Staying busy but not intentional Letting distractions consume your time and energy Avoiding steps you feel led to take because they feel uncertain Sometimes, it's not that you don't want to feel better. It's that you feel unsure, tired, or hesitant to move forward. Bringing This Back to Your Health (Christian Wellness + Stewardship) We are called to steward our bodies. Not perfectly—but faithfully. In the context of Christian wellness and healthy habits, this might look like: Paying attention to what your body is telling you Making small, consistent changes in your daily routines Seeking wisdom instead of rushing into overwhelm Taking one step instead of trying to fix everything at once For many women, this connects to challenges like chronic fatigue, ongoing symptoms, or a desire for deeper healing through natural remedies and lifestyle changes. It's easy to lose hope. But there is always hope in God. And sometimes, you already have a sense of what your next step could be—you just haven't taken it yet. Reclaiming Hope and Identity in Your Health Journey You are not without purpose. You were created in the image of God. That means: Your life has meaning Your body matters Your health is worth stewarding If you've felt discouraged or stuck, this is not a place of condemnation—it's an invitation. An invitation to: Reconnect with truth Take one small, faithful step Move forward with hope instead of fear Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 – Why it can feel hard to follow through on what you know would help your health 00:39 – Overview of Matthew 25 and the parable of the talents 02:35 – What a “talent” meant in biblical context and why it matters 04:03 – How this parable applies to stewardship of your body, health, and life 04:56 – The role of fear and distorted views of God in holding you back 06:23 – How distraction and busyness can keep you stuck 09:10 – Real-life example of staying in the familiar out of fear 12:57 – Obedience vs. comfort and societal expectations 13:27 – Bringing the message back to health and stewardship 14:23 – Encouragement for those who feel discouraged or have lost hope 15:49 – Identity: being made in the image of God and what that means for your life 16:18 – Encouragement to take the next step, even if it's small 18:10 – Invitation to receive support and gain clarity in your health journey Key Takeaways Stewardship is not about perfection—it's about faithfulness with what you've been given Fear can quietly keep you stuck, even when you care deeply about your health A right understanding of God's character helps you move forward with trust You don't need to do everything—you can take one small, wise step Your health matters, not just for you, but for how you serve your family and community There is always hope, even if you've been struggling for a long time Call to Action If you're realizing that you feel stuck, unsure, or overwhelmed when it comes to your health—you don't have to figure it out alone. Sometimes what you need isn't more information, but space to think clearly, process what's going on, and take a wise next step. If that's you, you're invited to book a one-on-one More Energy and Peace Session. This is a calm, supportive space where we look at your unique situation, help you make sense of what's going on, and gently move forward with clarity and peace.
