    When the Church Disagrees 2026 09 06

    This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 18:15–20 — a passage that reads like a rulebook for handling difficult people, until one word, brother, changes everything. When someone drifts, the circle doesn't close; it widens. What might it mean to hold the keys we've been handed not to lock anyone out, but to bring somebody home?

    Take Up Your Cross 2026 08 30

    This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 16, where Peter — who just got it right — hears Jesus name the cross ahead and answers with the hardest word the language has: never. But Peter's "never" isn't rebellion; it's a theology, a picture of God he loves too much to let change. What might it look like to bring your own never with you, and still fall in behind the One who goes first?

    Who Do You Say I Am? 2026 08 23

    This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 16, where Jesus asks the disciples the one question no one can answer secondhand: "Who do you say that I am?" Peter answers — and Jesus builds his church not on Peter's strength, but on the true thing Peter said. The mercy is that you don't have to be solid to say it.

    A Faith That Won't Quit 2026 08 16

    This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 15 and the Canaanite woman who won't be sent away. Jesus draws a hard line — only the children's bread — and she answers that even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from the table, showing a faith he calls "great." The people we're quickest to turn away are often the ones God uses to teach us who he is.

    LESSONS THAT LIVE -- 2026 08 09

    This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 14 — the story we've been reading backwards. We make it about Peter's nerve, the brave step out of the boat, but the one who climbs out is the one who sinks, and all his courage gives him is three words: "Lord, save me." A word for the storms that don't wait for a good day, and the name that comes walking across the water anyway.

    More Than Enough 2026 08 02

    This week, Pastor Will reflects on the feeding of the five thousand in Matthew 14. When the disciples count only five loaves and two fish, they call it nothing — but Jesus offers a third way between leaving it all to God and carrying it alone: bring the little you have and put it in God's hands. What might Christ do with the gifts we're tempted to call "not enough"?

    Hidden & Found - 2026 07 26

    This week, Pastor Will reflects on Jesus' five parables of the kingdom in Matthew 13 — a mustard seed, a bit of yeast, a hidden treasure. The kingdom of God doesn't arrive as spectacle; it rises quietly in the ordinary and the overlooked. Where might you catch sight of it this week?

    Wheat and Weeds 2026 07 19

    This week, Pastor Will reflects on the parable of the wheat and the weeds in Matthew 13, and the instinct we all have to sort people into piles. But the roots grow tangled, and the sorting was never ours to do. What if we set the shears down?
