Do you ever feel like you’re constantly chasing something? A better job, more peace, more purpose? The Bible says in Colossians 1 that we were once estranged and hostile — far from God — but Jesus came to reconcile us, to bring us back. Not just fix us, but root us in real, lasting hope.

We’re not called to just believe in Jesus… we’re called to bear fruit.

Our world loves to divide people. Race, gender, politics, status, even church denominations. But Galatians 3:28 says, ‘There is neither Jew nor Greek, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.’ That’s not wishful thinking — that’s God’s promise.

Let’s be honest — we’re all being led by something. Sometimes it’s our emotions — stirred up by our past, our hurts, and our need to be right. Other times it’s powerful people — voices we’ve trusted, even when they steer us wrong. And let’s not forget our desires — craving comfort, safety, and things that make us feel good.

“Ever feel like you don’t belong? Like you’re on the outside looking in?”

You ever feel like you’re stuck repeating the same mistakes, like sin keeps knocking and you keep opening the door?

Do you feel like life’s pulling you apart? Family stress. Work demands. Church obligations. And you wonder — what’s holding me together? The answer is one word: grace.

Do you feel like you’ve messed up too bad, or maybe you’re just too old for God to use you anymore? Like your best years are behind you?

Do you ever feel like the world’s just… drifting? Like everything’s changing too fast—morals, values, even the truth feels up for debate?

If Christ didn’t rise from the dead, then what’s the point? That’s the problem Paul calls out in 1 Corinthians 15—without the resurrection, our faith is empty, and death still wins.”

Are you grieving? Feeling left out? Like no one sees what you’re going through? At the foot of the cross, Jesus saw His mother’s pain and the disciple’s grief—and Jesus didn’t ignore it. Even while dying, He created a new family. Jesus looked at Mary and John and said, “Behold your son… Behold your mother.” In that moment, Jesus formed a new community—not built on blood, but on grace and love. And here’s the good news: that family includes you. So if you’re hurting, you don’t have to walk alone. If you’re searching, there’s a place for you. Because in Jesus Christ, you belong. Join the family Jesus made at the cross—and let’s carry each other through the hard times.
