  • Taming Water - Promises That Hold Water - Mark 4, Matthew 14

    Taming Water - Promises That Hold Water - Mark 4, Matthew 14
    Feb 19 2026
    If you’ve ever been on a boat when the waves suddenly pick up, you know that uneasy feeling of wondering whether things are actually okay or if you should start panicking. Water has a way of reminding us how small we are—and how little control we really have. That’s why the stories of Jesus calming storms and walking on waves hit so deeply: they show us a God who isn’t rattled by the chaos that shakes us, and who reaches for us the moment we start to sink.

  • Living Water - Promises That Hold Water - John 4

    Living Water - Promises That Hold Water - John 4
    Feb 18 2026
    If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably had at least one day where you suddenly realize you’ve gone hours without drinking any water. Our bodies depend on it more than we realize—and maybe that’s why the story of the woman at the well hits so close to home. Just as water keeps us alive physically, Jesus meets this woman with the promise of living water—the kind that restores, renews, and reaches the parts of us that feel worn out, overlooked, or spiritually thirsty.

  • Water to Wine - Promises That Hold Water - John 2, Hebrews 10

    Water to Wine - Promises That Hold Water - John 2, Hebrews 10
    Feb 17 2026
    Some people can turn any moment into a celebration—like the friend who always has a spare cake mix and a fridge full of “just in case” party supplies. But even the best hosts know the panic of running out of something essential, which is exactly what makes Jesus’ first miracle so surprising and so comforting. In a story where a simple shortage could have ended the celebration, Jesus steps in to show us that God cares about the everyday moments we worry about and delights in meeting us with unexpected abundance.

  • Waters of Baptism - Promises That Hold Water - Matthew 3, John 3

    Waters of Baptism - Promises That Hold Water - Matthew 3, John 3
    Feb 16 2026
    We’ve all had that moment—sipping a cozy cup of coffee, only to feel it suddenly dripping down our hands or soaking our lap. It’s funny how something as simple as a leaky mug can remind us how much we crave things that hold steady. This week, as we look at the waters of baptism and the way Jesus steps into every part of our human experience, we’re reminded that while our cups may crack, His promises never do.

  • Delivered - The Lord's Prayer - Matthew 6:13

    Delivered - The Lord's Prayer - Matthew 6:13
    Feb 13 2026
    Matthew 6:13 can be a tricky passage for some, me included. An important note here: God doesn't tempt us with wrongdoing, just so we can be punished when we choose it. Rather, He gives us opportunities to train us so we can tackle whatever we face throughout our lives, and our faith can be refined.

  • Forgiven - The Lord's Prayer - Matthew 6:12

    Forgiven - The Lord's Prayer - Matthew 6:12
    Feb 12 2026
    When have you experienced debt? I know my body feels tense when I think about that, and an urgency to resolve it. Matthew 6:12 gives us strong imagery of debt, not as a financial debt, but a moral one.
