Bible studies and devotional events
Have you seen YouVersion’s Daily Refresh? Every day, a new Verse of the Day Story is posted which usually includes a video, a Scripture, a guided prayer, questions to think about, and shareable social media graphics of the verse. There’s also a separate guided prayer section that helps you go deeper in prayer with Scripture and questions. The content is powerful and easily accessible on your phone, but if you’re looking for studies that go a bit deeper…
Sometimes when you’re going through a difficult time in life, you need perspective. I needed to hear this, you might need it too. Try to remember: grapes must be crushed…
If you have been stressing out and worrying about some things in your life, that’s pretty common. I have as well. It comes and goes in seasons- worrying about kids, worrying about money, worrying about this or that. Well, instead of worrying about all the things that could go wrong, how about you and I decide to put our faith in God? One word from Him…
Today’s a great day to live by faith and not by sight. Sometimes what you see isn’t really the whole story. Faith will fill in all the gaps. I was spending time in the Bible this morning in the book of Luke, and Jesus was talking to the disciples about faith. It got me thinking about how…

So why don’t you relax in life, knowing that God is in control? If you know him, there should be some peace there. I get it. It’s hard, but those analogies make so much sense to me now.
A wise young lady was recently sharing that what’s on the inside of us will come out…just like a sponge when it’s squeezed. So, the question is what are we producing or focused on on the inside so something good- something godly- comes out? Check out Matthew 12.34.” ~Joy
