When life seems unfair and it appears that others are prospering while we struggle, it’s easy to question God’s goodness. In Psalm 73, Asaph wrestles with comparison, doubt, and the apparent success of the wicked. But through corporate worship and an eternal perspective, he is reminded that God is good, faithful, and ultimately all he needs. The post Is God Really Good to Me? appeared first on Caz Church.
Waiting on God can be difficult when we want to take control of our circumstances and find security in the things around us.

When the world around us feels unstable, Psalm 46 reminds us that our confidence is not found in favorable circumstances but in the unchanging character of God. He is our refuge and strength, ever-present with His people, and sovereign over all the earth. Because God reigns, His people can stand firm in faith, rest in His presence, and trust His ultimate victory over every trial and every nation.

In Psalm 34, David invites us to experience the goodness of God personally rather than merely knowing about Him intellectually. This psalm calls believers to continually proclaim God’s faithfulness, pursue a life that honors Him, and find rest in His loving care. Whether in seasons of blessing or affliction, those who take refuge in the Lord will discover that He is faithful to deliver, sustain, and redeem His people.

After being confronted over his sin, David cries out to God for mercy.

In 1 Timothy 6:11-12 Paul gives us the Christian’s call to action.

In Matthew 28:1–10, the resurrection of Jesus is not just good news—it’s life-changing news that demands a response. When the women arrive at the tomb, they are met with an angelic announcement: “He is not here; He has risen.” This moment shifts everything. Fear turns to joy, doubt turns to worship, and silence turns into urgency as they are sent to go and tell others. The resurrection isn’t just something to believe—it’s something that calls us to respond with faith, obedience, and boldness. The question is not just “Did it happen?” but “What will you do because it happened?” The post An Anno
A look at Matthew 27:32-44, exploring how Jesus endured mockery and suffering on the cross, revealing His true kingship through sacrifice and love. The post Good Friday 2026 appeared first on Caz Church.
In Mark 11, we see three powerful pictures that reveal the heart of the Gospel. The colt – untamed and unused- was transformed when Jesus called for it. The crowd – caught up in religious excitement- missed the true identity of their King, the Christ – the Faithful and True Witness, who entered Jerusalem with one purpose: obedience to the Father and love for you and me. The post The Colt, The Crowd & The Christ appeared first on Caz Church.
In 1 Timothy 6:1-2, Paul instructs believers to serve with a Christlike attitude, honoring those in authority while working diligently.

In 1 Timothy 5:22-25, Paul teaches that we are to affirm elders carefully in the local church. True character is revealed over time, as both sin and virtue eventually come to light.

In 1 Timothy 5:17-21 Paul teaches us of the importance of honoring faithful pastor-elders by respecting and supporting them. However, if leaders are unfaithful and fall into serious sin, they must be disciplined. This reminds us of the seriousness of sin and the importance of holiness in the church. We are the household of the Holy One who has purchased us by His own blood. The post Honoring and Disciplining Elders appeared first on Caz Church.
Paul instructs Timothy to treat older men as fathers, younger men as brothers, older women as mothers, and younger women as sisters, with absolute purity. The tone we use matters because the relationships matter. He then addresses the care of widows, teaching the church that compassion must be paired with wisdom.

In 1 Timothy 4:11-16, the Apostle Paul closes chapter 4 by explaining to Timothy that godly ministry is patterned by godly character — via five areas in particular. Paul also instructs his protege to wholeheartedly progress as a believer & minister of the Gospel by reading, teaching, and exhorting God’s Word. If we are to progress in OUR Christian walk (and truly live out our faith), we must prove it by persistently watching ourselves and our doctrine closely. The post Prove It: Progressing in Godliness appeared first on Caz Church.
In 1 Timothy 4:6-10 we see Paul highlighting the importance of godliness.

In 2 Corinthians 4:1–4, Paul reminds us that the gospel is not something we manipulate — it is something we faithfully proclaim. “Since through God’s mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart.” The gospel is a ministry of mercy. We did not earn it. We received it. And because it came through mercy, we do not give up when ministry becomes difficult. The post Gospel Truth appeared first on Caz Church.
