This Sunday we continued our series, The Old Testament Speaks of Jesus, by exploring the story of Cain and Abel, an account of worship, jealousy, and the destructive downward spiral of sin. Why did God accept one brother’s offering but reject the other’s? What does this story from the opening pages of the Bible reveal about the kind of heart God desires from us today? As we unpacked Genesis 4, we discovered not only its lessons for our lives, but also how it ultimately points us to Jesus.

Bible Reading: Genesis 4:1-16

This Sunday we looked the first chapter of Hosea and looked at the parallels between Hosea and his wife, and God and us. Bible Reading: Hosea 1

This Sunday we explored the Contemplative Pathway, the practice of meeting God through stillness, intimacy, and quiet attentiveness. 

Bible reading: Luke 10:38-42

In this episode, Elyse Wallace explores Matthew 7’s teachings on judgment, humility, and grace—sharing personal stories and practical steps for self-examination, persistent prayer, and living the Golden Rule. Tune in for honest reflection, encouragement to water your own spiritual lawn, and ways to extend mercy in everyday relationships.

This Sunday we had a deeper dive into what Jesus meant on "Our Daily Bread" and how to properly pray according to the bible.  

Well, we managed to get through the first two words of the Lord's Prayer last week. It was an important foundation for this week, when we looked at the next three words; "Hallowed be Your Name". What does hallow mean? It’s an old word we never hear in everyday English but it's still in our Bibles because it's a very important word and there's no modern equivalent for it.
