Episode Summary: When we think of Christmas, we picture the manger scene, shepherds in the fields, angels singing, and a star guiding the way. But what if we’ve been missing one of the most important parts of the story all along? In her new book, The Spirit of Christmas, award-winning author Cynthia Ruchti invites us to rediscover the Holy Spirit’s presence woven throughout the Christmas narrative—from Genesis in the Garden of Eden to the cry of a baby in Bethlehem. This conversation will open your eyes to the power, presence, and promise of the Spirit of God in ways that may forever change how you experience Christmas. Quotables from the episode: Christmas often stirs our hearts with nostalgia—decorations, carols, and retelling the story of Mary, Joseph, and the baby Jesus. Yet, as beautiful as those traditions are, there’s more to the Christmas story than we typically notice. Before the babe was conceived, the Holy Spirit was already at work, setting the stage and preparing the hearts of the biblical characters we know and love. This season, let Him set the stage and prepare your heart too. In her book, The Spirit of Christmas, Cynthia Ruchti helps us uncover the often-overlooked role of the Holy Spirit in God’s plan of redemption, reminding us that the Spirit has been present from the beginning—guiding, comforting, and empowering. If you’ve ever longed to experience Christmas with fresh wonder and deeper meaning, this conversation will encourage you to see the season through new eyes. I have found it fascinating that over the course of my life and maybe others have been in the same boat, we might grow up understanding Jesus quite well, or, and we hear Jesus loves me from when we're newborns and aren't even aware, perhaps, of that. And then I personally had gone through some seasons of my life where I thought, "I think I understand Jesus pretty well. I'm getting a good handle on who is this Jesus. I'm not sure I'm as familiar with God the Father as I need to be." So, I had a season of my life that was in my early 20s where I dove in and thought, "I need to know you better, God, my Father," and took an approach as I looked at the Word and noticed that throughout the Old Testament, God described himself as a God of love, which I thought was a New Testament idea. I understood who he was as the majestic Creator, and I think probably it kept him a little distant from me because I saw just that. Then a relative of mine had a heart transplant and I took a fresh Bible, and I circled everywhere in the Bible where the word love or heart appeared because I wanted this person who wasn't close to the Lord at the time to know and understand that God has been talking about the subject of love for a very long time. He's all over the Bible, so page after page was filled with the circled or the little heart drawn around the word love or the word heart. Then there came a season in my life where I thought, "I think I better understand now. We will never fully understand, but I think I better understand. God the Father, God the Son. Do I really understand the Holy Spirit? I know he is. I believe what the Bible tells me about the Holy Spirit, but do I really understand his role or how the different roles of the Trinity make a complete God for us? So, I investigated that, and I watched for his presence, but not as deeply as I did after I was challenged to look for the Holy Spirit's presence in the Christmas story. There was an editor who challenged me with that at a writer's conference. I found it fascinating. I thought that would be a very interesting study. We assume, I think, in the back of our minds that maybe the Holy Spirit is that presence that comes upon Mary in that moment when she conceives Jesus, the baby Jesus, as an infant just minutes old. And then we're not sure where else he might actually show up in the Christmas story. So that was a challenge to me, and I thought it sounded fascinating, but I didn't take the invitation from that editor seriously until a couple of weeks later, when she wrote to me and said, "I want you to write that book." So, then I got very serious and started the deep dive research of where is he? And in some ways, it was kind of a where's Waldo of the Holy Spirit in the Christmas story. That's what began this adventure. And for me, it really did alter my view of how I approach Christmas now for many reasons. And that was one of the reasons that I wanted us to have this conversation because I don't think we're alone in that tendency to not really acknowledge the Holy Spirit as much as we acknowledge Jesus or God the Father. I grew up in a denomination that the only time the Holy Spirit got mentioned was when it was God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, period. So, I like that You took that editor up on the challenge to look for the Holy Spirit throughout the Christmas story. I wondered how far back I would have to trace to find the first evidence of the Holy Spirit and Christmas being linked together. And I realized it was in verse one. It was when the Spirit was hovering over the waters of a world that had yet to be created that was going to need a Redeemer. As we know, God has no beginning and no end, eternity past, eternity present farther than man can imagine. I realized that this in the formation with at creation, God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit, at creation forming a world that they knew was going to need a Redeemer and that that Redeemer was going to be thousands of years away from that moment. I saw the person of the Holy Spirit caring about what was going to happen all those centuries later, even in the creation process. How does that first crime connect to Christmas? There would have been no reason for Jesus to come as a human being if there were any way that we as humans could have behaved ourselves without him. And it wasn't very long into that early beginning creation story before that was so evident that without Christ present, without the Holy spirit present within us. We were never going to be able to satisfy what needed to be satisfied and keep us in a place where we could walk daily, in essence, walking by the Spirit like it talks about in the New Testament. When I began to put the pieces together of this incredible depth of story, this depth of even the communion of the Father and the Son and the Spirit, we saw the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament present in brief moments leading up to when Jesus would be born and then later on as we take that story even farther to his death and his resurrection and his intentional promise, “Hang in there people it's not only okay that I go back to heaven it's better for you that I do because then the Holy Spirit can come, reside inside you, and help you operate out of a place of knowing exactly my heart, knowing what God my Father,” Jesus said, “wants of you, and what will help you to live a life that will allow you to pillow your head every night in peace, no matter what's going on in the rest of your life.” The other thing that I really appreciate about Jesus knowing our every need is when he reminds us that he's got to send the Holy Spirit to remind us of all truth. As a neuropsychologist, that's one of the areas that I love to focus on the most because I have a short memory, and I need those reminders. I love how the spirit of Christmas is our reminder of the gift of the spirit. I didn't grow up in a denomination that had an actual practice of Advent, of intentional preparation for Christmas season. I knew the word, Advent. I knew it was a good word. I knew it was a healthy word and lovely, but we just didn't have that particular practice. We oftentimes, even with Lent, that was another, it seemed like it was for a denomination that was more liturgical, let's say, in thought. But I think more and more these days, we're realizing that every heart needs to be prepared. Every heart needs to “prepare him room” as the one Christmas carol says. It’s actually for any day, but when we think about Christmas in particular, it is so easy to get caught up in all the to -dos and all the menus and all the party planning and all the some-things we're very happy to participate in, some things that just seem like one more chore. And it's kind of this wild cacophony of noise and tension, and there may be relationships that are especially challenged at Christmastime, there may be work -related things that are especially difficult at Christmastime. That is not at all what this is supposed to be about. But we early church members apparently understood that we need time to get our hearts ready for this such, such a holy, holy season. And the Holy Spirit is part of that. As we take a look at what was the Holy Spirit's role in the original story that began way back at creation, but was threaded throughout Scripture as He was present in speaking to Isaiah about a virgin shall conceive way back then. And it didn't say shall conceive in the next day or two. Again, thousands of years from that prophecy, but the Holy Spirit was inspiring that prophet Isaiah to speak of that. And as we look at it in the time period in which those words were spoken, there was chaos. There was political chaos. There was trouble on every hand. There was the son of a king who was now the king, and he was being a lousy king. And this interesting thing: I think he wanted to do the right thing. King Ahaz, I think, wanted to do the right thing. He heard from God, but he didn't trust that what he heard from God was enough. He needed to find other voices that he would listen to. He was getting influenced by all kinds of other people. And Isaiah was trying to bring him back to, "No, there is one God, and you can trust him." And as the Spirit was inspiring Isaiah to speak the words, he was saying to King Ahaz, "Ask God, ask him for a sign, and he'll tell you.” Ahaz didn't have that kind of relationship with God. So, he said, "Oh, I don't want to test God in any way." And through the Holy Spirit's words, through Isaiah, we hear, and if we set it in modern language, we might say, "I'll give you a sign. A virgin is going to conceive and bear a son." And then, and we know some of the rest of that wording. How interesting that in a chaotic world, with a king who wasn't paying attention to the right voices, not unlike the worlds we might be operating in: maybe our boss isn't listening to the right voice, but we have to respond to the boss. Maybe our family members are all chaotic and confused and worrying about where are we going to set Uncle Ralph this Christmas, because he's going to torture these family members even with just teasing. That's the very world that a savior was promised to that world, promised by the Holy Spirit. And it's the same with us now. When I started to study, what was the Holy Spirit's role? He often came to those in the biblical story, some of it in the New Testament now, he came to those who were fearful. They were in danger for their lives. And the Holy Spirit would come on the scene and bring peace or hope or comfort. He would bring guidance where there wasn't any guidance. He accompanied Mary on her journey to visit Elizabeth. Nobody else did. We're not told anybody else was there on that journey, which was a long journey for Mary, except the Holy Spirit, who had to have been whispering comfort and strength, and “you will get through this. I'm here for you. I am with you. I am always with you.” And then Mary and Elizabeth met one another and the baby in Elizabeth's womb knew the Savior was being carried by this woman who couldn't even feel kicks in her own body yet. It was too new, too soon. So, as I look at whether it's darkness or depression or anxiety or legitimate fear or relationship troubles, those scenes were the scenes where the Holy Spirit showed up in the Bible. Those are the scenes I need him to show up in my Christmas. He is there. I just may not have observed that he was there, is there, and was there in the original Christmas story too. The Spirit of Christmas reminds us and brings us back to that recognition that he always was there, and he is there today. To us, waiting often seems purposeless and painful, yet the cry of “how long?” appears throughout scripture. I think one of the things that is toughest about any waiting time is believing you are alone in the waiting. I think honestly, whether it's waiting for a diagnosis or it's waiting for the medicine to kick in, or it's waiting for family members to reconcile, or it's waiting for the job that we believe is out there somewhere that we haven't found yet, whatever the situation is, I believe that what intensifies that waiting experience and makes it full of tension in the natural is the belief that we're alone. Even if we have a loving spouse to share with or we have other family members or a good friend we can converse with, deep down in our soul, it's that misunderstanding that makes us believe that we are alone. And the Holy Spirit is saying, "Untrue. This is untrue. I am here in the waiting, and that's what will make everything change." Mary had a long wait after that moment when the angel said, "You will bear a Savior." She had waiting even from those early days of raising this little baby. Before Jesus' ultimate ministry began, there was another waiting time where she was by his side before the ultimate reason he came to earth was fulfilled. Mary got to witness much of that, even being at the foot of the cross as she watched that ultimate moment then that we relate to Easter but it's so much part of the Christmas story too. As we discover where the Holy Spirit is present, we mimic what he did or what he said. If we see him as comforter, who can we be a comforter for? If we see him as a provider, who can we be a provider for? One of the tips that was given in the book as an idea was, do you really need your Christmas meal more than you need to give your Christmas meal to a family that has none? Can I have turkey any time of the year? Absolutely I can. Would it be a better move for our family to take our meal and give it to someone who has none? I would be acting like the Holy Spirit did and like the heart of Jesus is to forego a need that I think is a need of my own to meet somebody else's need. I make a parallel of the idea of if I'm looking for the Holy Spirit, what I'm looking for is the kind of fruit that he provides: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self -control. So, if I'm going to give good gifts like the Holy Spirit gives, how can I be peace for someone who needs it? How can I be a presence? How can I be evidence of faithfulness? That might be in a visit to someone who is ignored or overlooked during the holiday. We think of those things as philanthropic sometimes or we think of them as just plain old kindness but on the other hand if we see it as the kind of thing the Holy Spirit does, then we realize this is far holier of an act than just a kind deed. When we look at it from that approach and we take that approach we're fueled to be able to and do it more and more and enjoy the process and not see it as an obligation. It has always bothered me the idea of anyone spending Christmas alone. When we discuss the idea of the Holy Spirit is always present, what a better way to show that presence and that love that Jesus came to offer us by reaching out to those who might be alone, who are wondering “where is God today? Does he even see me?” Those are the people who are the most grateful for the smallest of acts because they feel seen. And isn't that what we all want? It's such a gift to know that we are seen by the Holy Spirit. The day after Christmas we're often sitting in a pile of opened packages and empty boxes and toys that the batteries have run out already, and maybe disappointments for how we hoped it would go that it didn't. There are people who are taking ornaments out of the box and it might be baby's first Christmas. We may remember that special day and the ornament brings us pain because hanging it on the tree may be a reminder that that child is no longer here or is estranged from us. Someone will have a Christmas like that. We intentionally set up the devotional to be a short read, one a day, so that for day after day after day of December, including the day after Christmas, there's a reminder of places you might not have thought to look, until I wrote the book. And then we also include a list of helpful hints. We include a downloadable that has to do with how many of these different roles did the Holy Spirit play in this actual event? Part of the advice and the very practical advice is maybe do what I did and make it an actual adventure. Take time to intentionally watch for his presence or be his presence. Let his presence in you shine somehow throughout the holiday season. It can't help but change what your Christmas looks like. One of the outcomes of my own journey to take a better, stronger look at what is this all about is that it really helps us to understand where the meaning of Christmas is and where the meaning isn't. The meaning of Christmas isn't how many parties can I get on my calendar. The meaning is likely more in what can I remove and not lose anything but instead gain. I might gain time that I needed. I might gain a more peaceful attitude toward this season. I might see that some of the things I have worked so hard to do or thought they were so important to make Christmas perfect, aren’t that important. How can we make Christmas any more perfect? Something that God did, that God was all over and did. What we often call essential to Christmas, whether it's that meal or the certain decorations or the tradition that we had of cutting down our own tree or the special hot cocoa that grandma makes; If any of those things are removed from our traditions, is Christmas still going to happen? Absolutely. What's our heart going to be like if we miss the cocoa? Not much difference. What if we miss the Holy Spirit in Christmas? That will make a huge difference - For sure. The idea that the Trinity loved what they created together despite humanity's fall is so powerful. We are the ones He came to save. The Bible would call us Gentiles; we were not born into the original children of Israel. We all can trace our lineage way back to the beginning, but we weren't considered the original children of Israel to which much of the Bible was written. But we are the ones he came to save. There's a verse in Galatians that I don't have memorized yet, but I want to, where it talks about God sent the Son so that we could have the Holy Spirit. When I stumbled on that verse, I thought, He sent Jesus to save us, yes. Jesus had to come as a human, had to leave everything he knew that was so perfect and come into this imperfect world and tolerate us. So, I'm now just fascinated by that idea that God the Father sent the Son to save the world so that we could have the Holy Spirit. That makes the complete picture. And that makes the waiting easier. It makes the feelings of defeat easier. And it makes those times of joy richer. The Holy Spirit, like God the Father and Jesus the Son, is always true to Himself. But that truth shows up in his behavior, we might say, throughout the Christmas story. And it will always be related to something that is so completely positive, but also so completely meeting the needs of the human heart, which is the need for his presence, the need for his comfort, the need for his peace.

Every Christ-following parent dreams of raising a daughter who clings tightly to her faith. But what happens when she doesn't? What if she begins to question, rebel, or even walk away from the truth you've poured into her?  In this week's episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose step into one of the hardest realities of Christian parenting: the prodigal season. With honesty and grace, they talk about what it looks like to parent with firm love while keeping the door open with compassion and forgiveness.  Drawing from the parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15 and reminders throughout Scripture, Rachael and Natalie encourage moms to:  Address sin with truth and grace, not avoidance or outbursts.  Speak to their daughter's identity in Christ, rather than letting her mistakes define her.  Pray persistently, trusting that God is faithful to pursue her heart even when she has turned away.  This conversation is both sobering and hope-filled. If you are in a season of heartbreak over your daughter's choices, you'll be reminded that you are not alone—and that God equips you with wisdom, love, and endurance to walk through it.  Because at the end of the day, your daughter's story is still being written, and God is the author who never gives up on His children.  Scripture References:  Luke 15:11–32  John 8:11 (“Go and sin no more”)  Colossians 3:12  Matthew 5:14–16  Jude 1:1  1 Peter 5:6–7  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.  To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

Trace Church celebrated 9 years in Colorado Springs with an unforgettable Fall Kickoff service. Pastor Aaron preached a powerful message out of Luke 15, reminding us that the grace of God is always greater than our sin.In the story of the prodigal son, we see a young man run as far as he could from his father. He wasted everything, gave himself over to sin, and carried deep shame. Yet when he turned back home, the father ran to him, embraced him, and restored him as a son. This picture is a glimpse into the heart of God for us.Many of us carry strongholds, shame, and mistakes that feel too heavy to let go of. We believe the lie that we have gone too far or done too much for God to forgive. But this message reminds us of the truth: you cannot out-sin the grace of God. His mercy is new every morning, His arms are always open, and His love pursues us no matter how far we wander.Through Scripture in Luke 15, Romans 8, Ephesians 5, and James 5, we are challenged to step out of the shadows, break free from lies, and walk in the freedom that only Jesus provides. The call is clear: return to God, confess, repent, and receive the grace that has already been purchased for you at the cross.This was more than just an anniversary service. It was a moment of celebration, surrender, and breakthrough. God is moving at Trace Church, and He is calling each of us to turn around and come home.

Send us a textPodcast Title: Communion at Home: Breaking Bread in Spirit and Truth Scripture Focus: Luke 22:19-20, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26, Hebrews 4:14-16Have you ever felt disconnected from church community yet deeply longed for the sacred experience of communion? English preacher Reverend Ben Cooper, recording here in London, England, invites you into a transformative five-minute devotional on the beauty and power of taking communion at home—breaking bread wherever you are.Jesus commanded us in Luke 22:19-20, “Do this in remembrance of me,” calling us to remember His body broken and blood shed for our redemption. But what does this look like when we are physically apart from a church building or community? This episode explores the profound truth that communion is not bound by location or ceremony. Instead, it is a deeply personal, spiritual act that unites believers worldwide.Reverend Cooper draws on 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 to remind us that communion is a sacred memorial, a proclamation of Christ's death until He returns. This powerful truth transcends ritualistic traditions and invites every believer into intimate fellowship with Jesus, even when alone or physically isolated.The breaking of bread at the Passover table was originally simple and heartfelt—Jesus, the “great high priest” (Hebrews 4:14-16), blessed the bread and cup and shared them with His disciples as a symbol of covenant and sacrifice. Today, that covenant remains active and alive whenever believers gather—whether in a cathedral or around a kitchen table.This devotional guides you through a prayerful communion experience at home, school, work, or wherever life finds you. It emphasizes the spiritual significance of the bread representing Christ's body and the cup symbolizing redemption through His blood. There is no need for elaborate rituals or human intermediaries; Christ Himself sanctifies and blesses these sacred moments.Scripture References:Luke 22:19-20 — “This is my body… this cup is the new covenant in my blood.”1 Corinthians 11:23-26 — “Do this in remembrance of me…”Hebrews 4:14-16 — Jesus, our great high priest, intercedes for us.John 6:53-56 — “Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you.”Life Application: Make space this week to practice communion at home. Prepare your bread and cup with intentional prayer, invite the Holy Spirit's presence, and reflect on Christ's sacrifice personally. Use this time to renew your faith, deepen your connection with God, and proclaim His redemption over your life. Whether alone or with family, this simple act anchors you in God's unchanging love.Support Our Ministry: If this daily devotional encourages your spirit, please partner with us to help share the Gospel globally.

"Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth; sing the glory of his name; give to him glorious praise. Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! Because of your great power, your enemies cringe before you. All the earth worships you; they sing praises to you, sing praises to your name. Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds among mortals. He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the river on foot. There we rejoiced in him, who rules by his might forever, whose eyes keep watch on the nations— let the rebellious not exalt themselves. Bless our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard, who has kept us among the living, and has not let our feet slip." (Psalm 66:1-9). Scripture References: Luke 16:1-15 7/6/25

Jesus shocked His culture by treating women as equals. Discover how He revolutionized women's roles and why it matters for the church today.

Following Jesus isn’t a one-time declaration—it’s a daily act of courage. In this powerful devotional, Heidi Vegh reminds us that discipleship is built in the quiet choices, the small sacrifices, and the surrendered moments where we say “yes” to Christ and “no” to our flesh. Whether you're facing conflict, battling pride, or resisting worldly pressures, this prayer equips you to walk boldly and consistently in God's truth.

This week at Compassion, we dive into the powerful parable of the lost sheep found in Luke 15:3–7. Jesus paints a vivid picture of the heart of the Good Shepherd—one who notices, knows, and relentlessly searches for the one who has gone astray.So often, sheep stray for reasons that feel all too familiar: distraction, emotional drift, fear, peer influence, or simply a loss of intimacy with the Shepherd. But the beauty of the Gospel is that even when one wanders, God never stops pursuing. He seeks until He finds, and when He does—He carries us with compassion, not condemnation.We're reminded that: • The Shepherd knows each sheep by name (John 10:3,14) • His search is urgent and motivated by love (1 Peter 5:8, John 10:11) • He celebrates every return with joy (Luke 15:6–7) • And He calls us to do the same (James 5:19–20)There is no such thing as “just one” to God. Every soul matters. Every return is a victory. Heaven rejoices when even one is brought home.So we ask: Who is your one? Who is God calling you to pursue, pray for, and lead back to the Shepherd?Scripture References: • Luke 15:3–7 • John 10:3, 10:11, 10:14–15 • 1 Peter 5:8 • Ezekiel 34:11–12 • Psalm 103:8 • James 5:19–20

The Lord is king! Let the earth rejoice; let the many coast lands be glad!." (Psalm 97:1). We come together to call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised! Scripture References: Luke 24:44-53; Acts 1:1-11 6/1/25 Ascension of Our Lord - Christ's ascension means that in heaven there is one who, knowing firsthand the experience of suffering and temptation, prays for us and perfects our prayers. The ascension is a witness and guarantee of our own bodily resurrection, as well as an invitation for us to set our hearts and minds “on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God” (Col. 3:1-2) to rule over all things in heaven and throughout the universe (Eph.1:10, 20-23). Finally, the ascension of Jesus serves as the prelude to Pentecost, when the power of the risen Christ came upon all believers through the Holy Spirit. We celebrate and remember the ascension of Christ today.

In today's powerful and challenging message, we explore the difference between manipulated service and true, loving commitment to God and His Kingdom. This sermon invites you to ask the hard questions: - What are you really committed to? - Are your commitments driven by love—or by guilt, pressure, or habit? - Are you carrying the cross that Jesus personally assigned to you? Drawing from Luke 14:16–27, we hear the parable of the Great Banquet, where Jesus exposes the excuses people make to avoid responding to God's invitation. Whether it's relationships, success, or past failures, many of us have placed our priorities above the call of Christ. This message isn't about religion—it's about loyalty born out of love, and the God-given responsibility placed on each of our lives. We also reflect on the words of Peter in 1 Peter 1:18–25, reminding us that this life is a journey to be traveled with a deep consciousness of God, not shallow distractions. "You cannot be My disciple unless you love Me more than your own life." – Jesus It's time to count the cost. Choose love. Choose commitment. Choose to carry your cross. Scripture References: Luke 14:16–27, 1 Peter 1:18–25 (MSG) #Sermon #ChristianLiving #Commitment #Luke14 #Discipleship #Faith #Cross #GodsKingdom #LoveGod #1Peter #CarryYourCross

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Pastor Jerry's Easter message dives into why the resurrection of Jesus is such a big deal — it's the foundation of our faith! He talks about the confusion and heartbreak Jesus' followers felt after the crucifixion, and how Jesus didn't give up on them, even when they were ready to walk away. It's a reminder that no matter where we've been or what we've done, hope and redemption are still ours — because the risen King comes looking for us, even when we've drifted. It's an invitation to let His resurrection change everything and step into the new life He's calling us to.|| ABOUT BEACH CHURCH || We exist to reach, raise up, and release followers of Jesus who change the world.

Episode Summary: In this episode, my co-host, Rev. Jessica Van Roekel and I reflect on the journey from the darkness of Good Friday to the redemption of Resurrection Sunday. For Jesus’s disciples and followers, Good Friday marked a day of despair, while Saturday felt like a wilderness of uncertainty. Yet, Resurrection Sunday brought the hope of resurrection, redemption, and purpose. Together, we’ll examine how these themes resonate in our own lives when we walk through dark seasons and wilderness experiences, and how we can hold onto hope, knowing that redemption is always possible through Christ. Quotables from the episode: Even though Jesus warns us we will experience trials, they often take us by surprise just like Jesus’s death did for the disciples. Nothing happens to us that isn’t first sifted through God’s hand. God has a plan, sees the whole picture, and offers his comfort. Prayer and lament: Honest communication with God, expressing pain, confusion, and doubt. Meditate on Scripture: reflecting on Bible passages that highlight God’s faithfulness in difficult situations. Practice gratitude: remember past instances of God’s provision as encouragement for the present trials. Fasting: set aside time for fasting to seek clarity, alight with God’s will, or pursue deeper spiritual intimacy. Worship and praise: praise God for who He is, even when circumstances feel bleak. Community and Fellowship: share your struggles with trusted believers who can pray and provide encouragement. Silence and solitude: spend intentional quiet time with God, listening for his voice and his presence. Remembering God’s faithfulness: reflect on his unchanging nature and promises. God often uses our darkest moments to bring about the greatest redemption. Lean into God’s promises during dark and wilderness seasons. Look for glimpses of God’s redemptive work, even when it feels far off. Remember that life’s trials often follow the pattern of Good Friday, Saturday, and Resurrection Sunday. The darkness of despair can give way to the wilderness of waiting, but the story doesn’t end there. Resurrection Sunday reminds us that hope and redemption are always on the horizon. No matter what season you’re in, trust that God is at work, bringing beauty out of ashes and life out of death.

Through practical steps and biblical examples like Zacchaeus, we learn how to protect our momentum, activate lasting change, and walk in the fullness of God's grace. Scripture References: Luke 19 (Zacchaeus) Romans 8:11 Luke 13:5 James 4:6 ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

In this powerful Lenten sermon on Luke 13:1-9, we explore Jesus' urgent call to repentance and the fruit that true repentance produces in our lives. As we journey through the Third Sunday in Lent, Christ reminds us that suffering is not always a sign of greater sin but a call for all to turn to Him in faith. The parable of the barren fig tree reveals God's patience and mercy, urging us not to delay in seeking forgiveness and renewal.Join us as we uncover how repentance is more than regret—it is a transformation that bears fruit in our daily lives. What does it mean to bear the fruit of repentance? How does Christ, our true Vinedresser, nourish and strengthen us through His Word and Sacraments? Discover the grace of God in the Lord's Supper and how we are called to live as faithful disciples in a fallen world.
