Chris Wall • John 8:10-12
A Divine plan was implemented in Jesus being sent to the world revealing the light of salvation. John 8 describes a transformative confrontation with the scribes and Pharisees as they come to grips with their need for salvation. God issues a call to genuine repentance, resulting in a turning away from sin, leading to the internal light of life. Is that light of life in you? Jesus shared this light with the world. Our church is SENT to do the same. Today, look deeply in your heart for the Light of Life.

Chris Wall • John 7:37-53
The scene continues at the Feast of Tabernacles in Jerusalem. On the last day, Jesus stands and proclaims that whoever is thirsty should come to Him and drink, promising that rivers of living water will flow from within them. “Every believer is SENT by God to share the LOVE of Jesus so the WORLD will KNOW and BELIEVE that He is God.” “The One SENT to save the worlds sends you.” On this Father’s Day, we pray that our men become channels of living water that changes the world.

Chad Balthrop • John 7:1-9
If you have a brother, you know. “You think you’re something special!? Prove it!” Let’s be honest: even beyond sibling rivalry, we don’t like being told what to do. Sure, give me advice. Help me achieve my goals. But insert the word “should,” tell me I have to? It’s the quickest way to get me to go the other way.
In the days before Jesus was crucified, he encountered people who couldn’t get past their doubt, dissatisfaction, defeats, disagreements, or denial—even his brothers. Yet Jesus kept confidently living a God-given plan. He kept moving toward His redemptive purpose. He met people where they were and challenged them to take their next step of faith.
And now, the One sent to save the world sends you.

Chad Balthrop • John 6:22-24
Our appetites can fuel our strengths or feed our vices. On the day after He fed the 5000, the morning after He walked on water, the crowd came, seeking Jesus. After hearing His words, their day ended, leaving Jesus. The appetites that drove them to Him became the obstacles that kept them from believing in Him. Jesus said, “I am the bread of life.” Enjoy a meal you’ll always remember with a man you’ll never forget. Trust every appetite to the One who satisfies every need.
He has the Words of Life.

Chris Wall • John 6:15-21
Jesus brings the calm. When life's storms rage around us, our instinct is often to focus on the tempest itself, but Jesus calls us to a different response. He invites us to sit with Him, to rest in His unwavering presence, and to find calm amid the turbulence. This passage reminds us that no matter how tumultuous our circumstances, Jesus brings the calm over the tumultuous waves of life. Sit with the Lord. Instead of sitting with your problems, sit with the Lord. Instead of meditating on your problems, meditate on His promises.

Chris Wall • John 6:1-14
God is more than able and provides physically and spiritually. According to His purpose and will, Gods blessings often exceed our expectations and needs, revealing His overflowing grace. This miraculous meal serves as a powerful reminder to give thanks for Gods provision in our lives, knowing that He is able to provide more than we could ever imagine, both physically and spiritually. Gratitude. When was the last time you genuinely thanked the Lord?
