Pastor Alex reminded us of the power of thanksgiving. It's more than a holiday, it sets the atmosphere of our hearts. As we slow down and appreciate one another, we remember the One who deserves our deepest thanks: the Lord.Thanksgiving strengthens us. It deepens our walk, grows our roots in Christ, and aligns us with God's will — giving thanks in everything. Even in painful seasons, gratitude becomes real faith. It lifts heaviness, disarms the enemy, and invites breakthrough.Thanksgiving brings God's peace. When we pray with gratitude, His peace guards our hearts and minds and invites His presence. We enter His gates with thanksgiving.And just as Jesus gave thanks for seven loaves and a few fish, thanksgiving still leads to multiplication today. Whether we feel like we have much or little, let's thank God for it all. Scriptures: Psalm 92:1 Psalm 103:1–4 Colossians 2:6–7 1 Thessalonians 5:14–22 Hebrews 11:1 Philippians 4:4–7 Psalm 100 Matthew 15:32–38 Psalm 50:23 Whether you are in a season of blessing or walking through something painful, this message will encourage you to lift your eyes and thank God for who He is, what He has done, and His endless mercy.
God is our Creator—the One who shapes our identity and gives us worth. Made in His image, we reflect His character and carry His imprint wherever we go. And because He created us with purpose, our lives are meant to display His glory and join His work in the world. Scriptures: Psalm 139: 12-17, Genesis 1:26-27

Send us a textWaiting on God in a Culture of Noise | Psalm 130:5 | Beyond Religious PerformanceWelcome to Unshakeable: A Daily Christian Devotional Podcast with Reverend Ben CooperWhat happens when we strip away everything external—our possessions, status, and even religious routines—and face the raw essence of our faith? In this deeply stirring devotional episode, Reverend Ben Cooper explores the profound message of Psalm 130:5: “I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in His word I put my hope.”In a world driven by speed, noise, and instant gratification, waiting has become a lost spiritual art. But it's in the waiting—when we pause and allow silence to reveal what truly matters—that our faith is refined, and our souls are recalibrated to depend fully on God.Episode ReflectionThis five-minute teaching boldly confronts the performative culture that often infiltrates modern church life. From celebrity pastors to flashy productions, many believers find themselves caught in a system that prioritizes entertainment over transformation. Yet Scripture calls us back to the heart of worship—an intimate, obedient walk with Jesus, unencumbered by the expectations of religious culture.Reverend Ben reminds us that true freedom in Christ cannot be found in outward displays, titles, or spiritual status symbols. Instead, it is found in the quiet, honest places—in the waiting—where we confront our frailty and discover our strength through Him alone.This devotional draws deep strength from multiple Scriptures:Psalm 130:5 – “I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope.”Isaiah 40:31 – “But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength.”Luke 22:19 – “Do this in remembrance of me.” (Reverend Ben ties this to the sacred practice of communion)Ecclesiastes 5:1 – “Guard your steps when you go to the house of God…”These verses remind us that waiting on God is not passive—it's an active faith posture rooted in humility and trust.
The Lord, My Trust! | Week 4What do you turn to when everything else starts to shake? In Psalm 91, we're invited to find refuge in the only One who truly secures us—God Himself. This message reminds us that real trust is not found in money, people, or planning… it's found in the Lord who shelters, strengthens, and secures our souls.Key Takeaways:We are God-Sheltered: safe in His shadow.We are God-Strengthened: empowered by His protection.We are God-Secured: confident in His promises.Scriptures: Psalm 91:1–16, Isaiah 41:10Need prayer?

The Lord, My Refuge! | Week 3Psalm 13 shows us a journey from pain to praise.

If you've ever felt like God is distant or silent, this message is for you. You're not alone—and you're not without hope.Key Takeaways:Crying out to God in pain is an act of faith.Prayer is the pivot that leads us toward hope.Praise is a choice, even when the pain hasn't lifted.Scriptures: Psalm 13:1–6, Romans 8:38–39Need prayer?

The Lord, My Praise! | Week 2God's creation isn't just breathtaking—it's designed to stir praise in our hearts. This week, we dive into Psalm 8 and marvel at how a majestic God crowns humanity with glory and honor. Our value doesn't come from our achievements, but from the One who created and cares for us.Key Takeaways:Creation can influence our praise.Our praise deepens as we see God's care.Our praise exists through our purpose.Our praise must center on Jesus.Scriptures: Psalm 8:1–9, Hebrews 2:6–9Need prayer?

Season 2, Episode 9: Letting Go of Who You Thought You'd Be What happens when life doesn't look like you thought it would—and you don't look like the person you expected to become? In this episode, Cami gently unpacks the silent grief that comes from unmet expectations, internal pressure, and performance-based faith. Whether you're still wrestling with anxiety, over-apologizing for your emotions, or trying to “fix” yourself faster, this conversation will help you name what hurts and release who you thought you had to be. Jesus isn't waiting for the perfect version of you. He's already here—offering rest for the real you. In this episode, we explore:
At times, the influence of the Satan can be seen even in the life of a disciple. In this recording, we explore the complexity of human faith, the beauty of walking together—both communally and across generations with saints past and present—and the ongoing invitation to grow in awareness of how our lives are shaped by the system of the Satan. This system seeks to harass and enslave; it promises gain, yet demands our very lives in return. It leaves little room for cruciform love or the humble service of foot washing. And yet, because of Jesus' decisive victory over the Satan, we are invited to lean in, trust God's presence among us, and discover the life God offers—a life only He can give. Scriptures: Psalm 77, Mark 8, Closing Song written by Levi Nelson

You can't always control what life throws at you—but you can control how you respond. In this powerful message, Pastor Marcus Mecum reveals a spiritual principle that changes everything: The Law of Response.Drawing from Psalms 102, John 11, and 2 Corinthians 4, this sermon reminds us that God's favor is on your life, even in seasons of personal, church, and family battles. The enemy counts on your usual reaction—but if you respond God's way, you can crush the enemy's plan and walk in anointing, joy, and purpose.

Much of Western Christianity places a high focus on orthodoxy (right beliefs) and will even explore orthopraxy (actions/behaviors). What about our passions, desires, and fires within (orthopathy)? These realities within our souls can lead us into all kinds of bondage and create pain for ourselves and our neighbors, but the love of God is always inviting them back home into his refuge and care. This allows our passions and desires to be shaped in right ways for our own healing and that of the world.Scriptures: Psalm 32:1-7, Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32

March 16 - Meditating and Studying the ScripturesMain Idea: The scriptures are God's word communicated to us. It's a primary way that God reveals God's self to us. When we read, meditate on and study the scriptures, we learn more about the character of God, we ourselves are read and formed into more Christ-like people. This is about both relishing what we read and explicating it. Scripture is a primary way we are transformed by the renewing of our minds. As we read what God reveals about who God is, we begin to have a more Christ-formed imagination. Let the BIble break us open in all the right ways. Scriptures: Psalm 19: 2 Timothy 3:16-17

I greeted our youth group as my husband and I handed out Bibles. “God will use these priceless gifts to change your life,” I said. That night, a few students committed to reading the gospel of John together. We continued inviting the group to read Scripture at home while we taught them during our weekly meetings. More than a decade later, I saw one of our students. “I still use the Bible you gave me,” she said. I saw the evidence in her faith-filled life. God empowers His people to go beyond reading, reciting, and remembering where to find Bible verses. He enables us to “stay on the path of purity” by living “according to” the Scriptures (Psalm 119:9). God wants us to seek and obey Him as He uses His unchanging truth to free us from sin and change us (vv. 10-11). We can ask God daily to help us know Him and understand what He says in the Bible (vv. 12-13). When we recognize the priceless value of living God’s way, we can “rejoice” in His instruction “as one rejoices in great riches” (vv. 14-15). Like the psalmist, we can sing, “I delight in your decrees; I will not neglect your word” (v. 16). As we invite the Holy Spirit to empower us, we can savor each moment spent prayerfully reading the Bible—God’s life-changing gift to us.
