He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Send us a textAnd you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the flesh and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for go

Send us a textLuke 15 reminds us that heaven throws a party when the lost are found. Jesus’ parables of the lost sheep, coin, and son show us that every person matters deeply to God. Our worth comes not from performance but from being His children, and His love is unconditional—always ready to forgive and restore. The challenge for us is to avoid sin, comparison, and bitterness, and instead join in the celebration when God brings someone home.

Send us a textIn this message, Jesus challenges us to truly consider the cost of discipleship. Following Him isn’t casual—it requires surrender, sacrifice, and total commitment.Jesus reminds us that to follow Him, our love for Him must surpass all other loves.He calls us to bear our cross daily, dying to self and living fully for Christ.True discipleship means renouncing our own desires and ambitions to embrace God’s will.Just like building a tower or going to war, we must count the cost before committing—because following Jesus will cost us everything, but it is worth it.Finally, Jesus calls His followers to remain “salty”—useful and influential in His kingdom.The question for us today is: Have you counted the cost of following Jesus—and found Him to be worth it?

Send us a text5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,[a] 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,[b] 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant,[c] being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.2 Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good, and delight yourselves in rich food.
