Jesus' constant prayer life taught his disciples to transform their lives into continuous acts of prayer, deepening their relationship with God through the Holy Spirit. Are you willing to persist in prayer, even when it feels unanswered, to experience this deeper connection with God?

By getting to know Jesus as a friend, we get to know God as God really is.

God's love and promises are for everyone, no matter where they come from

The God who calls you "Beloved" from the beginning, calls you to be a friend through Christ.

Paul’s words in 1 Thessalonians urge us to rejoice, pray, and give thanks always, while living in the fullness of God's triune life and love. To trust God is to set down our lives and embrace a life of complete commitment to God’s transformative power.

Sonshine Sunday is a wonderful day to celebrate the unique, unconditional love in the Sonshine Class, urging us to embrace God's Pentecost dream of valuing every voice beyond success or failure. Imagine how our church could transform if we celebrated every voice with the same love. What would it look like to live out the Spirit's inclusive and equitable vision?
