All the grief you feel in this life can feel overwhelming, and we are just trying to get past it to our final destination. However, Jesus promises his disciples something different. All their present sorrows will themselves be transformed into joy...
There may be a season for everything but how do we know our lives have any purpose? It is easy to enjoy life when things are good but what about the times everything really does feel meaningless? How do we make sense of tragedy in our lives? The...
The gospel is more amazing than we commonly accept. Our union with Christ means that when Christ died to sin, so to all who belong to Christ died to sin in Christ. Which means we have been set free from sin’s rule over our lives. And we are no longer...
John’s gospel concludes with a breakfast fire on the beach. Jesus intentionally calls out to Peter, who had failed him by denying Jesus 3 times around a fire the night Jesus was arrested. Now Jesus uses this second fire to restore Peter and call him...
All people looking for life. We look in our work, our families, our health and our getaways. But somehow it keeps slipping through our fingers. It is because we have been made for life that only God can give us. And in this passage we see the...
What kind of person are you in your darkest moments? Where do you look for help? In the final hours of Jesus’ life, he shows us how to approach God in the darkest moments and how everything else that we try will ultimately fail. Through his...
Our present suffering is light and temporary when compared to the eternal weight of glory secured in Christ, enabling believers not to lose heart amid affliction. Because the believer’s true home is the heavenly dwelling prepared by God and guaranteed...
Many of the heroes in the early church exemplified incredible boldness. How do we emulate them if we aren't bold ourselves?
Apart from Christ, all of life is unfinished hearts and hurried lives. Always under construction, always another standard to reach, and another version of ourselves to build. But thanks be to Christ who from the cross declared – “It is finished!” On...
The hard truth we must face is that, before God, we are guilty, and we cannot pay what we owe, nor escape his judgment. But we can look to Christ the King who gave himself up to set his people free.
The hardest assignment a Christian is given is the call from Jesus to live in the world but to not of the world. Thankfully, the call of Christ comes with the provision of Christ. Jesus the Great High Priest not only keeps us in this calling, but he...
Jesus provides far more than forgiveness of sin. He gives us new life in him that we may abide in him and he in us. Because Jesus is the vine and we are the branches, all of who he is – including his love, his joy – flow into us. Which is why me must...

In a world with increasingly vague and shifting standards of love, Romans 13:8–10 reminds us that true love is not defined by culture or personal feeling, but by God’s law and character. Though Christians live under grace, Paul shows that the law...
What kind of church is God calling us to be? In Acts 11:19–30, we see the early church at Antioch — an unlikely city, morally corrupt and culturally diverse — become one of the most influential churches in history. Through the power of the gospel...
Every day presents countless ways in which our hearts may be troubled. And the world presents many coping strategies that vie for our allegiance. And Jesus knows this. So he teaches his disciples of the peace he alone can provide for the troubled...
When Jesus stoops to wash his disciples’ feet, Peter says, “No way. You will never wash my feet.” Peter underestimated his ongoing need of God’s grace, and how only Jesus can daily cleanse him daily. We too, like Peter, tend to recoil at Jesus...
As Jesus rides into Jerusalem to the shouts of "Hosanna," Pastor Mark Middlekauff explores the paradox at the heart of Palm Sunday: a crowd that cheered for a political deliverer but rejected the Savior God sent. Drawing from John 12:12–50...
Did you know that joy is a requirement for the Christian life? So then what do I do if and when I don't experience joy? In our passage today, Paul reminds us of the joy found in the Lord, exhorting us to rejoice and to receive the peace of Christ...
Into a world in great need of shepherding, Jesus comes and stands and declares, “I am the Good Shepherd!” But the question isn’t so much “Is he the Good Shepherd?” but “Will I entrust my life to his good shepherding?”
John chapter 9 is not merely a story about a blind man receiving sight, it is about what happens when the Light of the World comes into human darkness. Will we see Jesus, receive him and worship him? Or will we remain blind to who he is as well as...
