Couples walking hand in hand, joggers getting in their daily run, and children racing the waves back and forth, all leaving footprints on the shore. Muddy footprints mark a rainy day and the footprints of grandkids running through wet grass … Continue reading →

Why Gather?

Posted on September 30, 2020 by Arrow

To gather … or not to gather, that is the question. Or more importantly, why do believers gather at all? In looking back at the early church, we see that Christ followers met to hear the apostles’ teaching, to have … Continue reading →

Mission: Possible

Posted on August 5, 2020 by Arrow

What is your passion? What are your gifts and talents? How could God blend those with your willing spirit to help accomplish the mission He’s assigned you? Listen to where He is calling you. Step into the light He is shining in front of you. Most of the people in the Bible could not have guessed the future God had in store when they stepped forward in faith and said yes.

Hidden Treasure

As you read God’s Word, ask Him to speak to your heart and open your ears to what He has to say specifically to you each day. Continue reading →

… when we feel like we’re being swamped by a surge of continuous whitecaps, we may want to stop and re-evaluate our decisions and plans. Continuing to sail onward in stubbornness causes us to miss out on God’s peace and blessings. Continue reading →
