When the Old You Doesn’t Fit Anymore
Let’s go ahead and tell the truth — we have all had that moment standing in the closet, holding up something we used to slip into with ease, and thinking, “Now… who exactly did I think was getting into this today?” Life has this beautiful way of reminding us that we are constantly growing, shifting, and evolving — whether we like it or not. And the funny part? We rarely notice the changes until something suddenly feels… tight. Too tight. “My friend, this is not your size anym

When Letting Go Becomes Your Breakthrough
This morning, while I was working — minding my business, sipping my coffee, and trying to act like I had it all together — my usual YouTube mix started playing. Nothing unusual… until that one song came on. You know the one: “Let Go and Let God.” And, when I tell you it hit different today? Whew. I mean, I’ve heard it before, hummed along, nodded like I understood. But this morning? This morning, I listened. Really listened. Before I knew it, it felt like the words were reach

Climb Anyway: When You’re Willing to Rise Just to See Jesus
How many of us are really willing to climb up out of where we are in life just to see Jesus? I’m talking about climbing out of the heaviness, the confusion, the routines, the disappointments… the “this is just how life is right now” mindset. Because sometimes seeing Jesus clearly requires us to elevate our position — not because He’s far, but because life tries to crowd our vision. Zacchaeus knew that feeling. Scripture calls him a “wee little man,” but let’s be honest — life

Fruit Full Fellowship: Staying Connected to the Source in Every Season
Let’s be real — life can shake us up sometimes. The winds blow, storms rise, and we find ourselves wondering, “Lord, where are You in all this?” But here’s the truth that keeps me steady: fellowship with God doesn’t always calm the storm, but it keeps me calm in the storm. See, fellowship isn’t some grand thing we do once a week or when life feels easy. It’s the everyday connection — the simple, steady awareness that God is still with us, still feeding us, still holding us up

Grace on Repeat: Covered Every Time
Grace. Grace. Grace. Just saying it feels like a deep exhale, doesn’t it? Like letting go of something you were never meant to carry in the first place. Grace has a way of showing up right where we fall short, whispering, “You’re still covered.” It’s not just a sweet church word—it’s the reason we can stand when life knocks the wind out of us. Grace doesn’t come to shame us or remind us of what we did wrong; it comes to remind us of who God still says we are. Sometimes we thi

Called to Board an Unsinkable Ship: Called FellowSHIP!
Inspired by Sunday’s Message from Pastor Phil Williamson This week’s Sunday message was one for the books! Pastor Phil reminded us that some ships were never meant to sink—and the one God calls us to board is called FellowSHIP. It’s not about playing it safe or staying in shallow waters; it’s about choosing a deeper connection, a divine bond that sails through storms and anchors us in God’s love. There comes a point in life when you have to decide what ship you’re sailing on.
