How Do I Live Generously?
One of the reasons our lives can feel hollow or like they lack meaning, is because we often live with a self-centered approach. This can lead to worry and fear as we try to control our circumstances. It's one of the biggest reasons we find ourselves drifting towards selfishness or self-protection, keeping others at a distance and settling for less than the abundant life we were designed for. And it's one of the biggest reasons we might settle for less than God's Kingdom way of living, which invites us into a life of radical generosity. Radical generosity is at the core of God's heart, His character, and His nature. When we understand God’s original design of the Garden, we begin to see the reason Jesus calls His followers to live such a radically generous life. Jesus is inviting us to return to “Garden living.”

Why Does Hospitality Matter?
Why Does Hospitality Matter?
Hospitality isn’t just about sharing a meal or having a spotless home; it’s about inviting others into our lives, even the messy parts, so they can see Jesus in us.

Let’s look for ways to show that same love and let our homes and hearts be a reflection of Jesus. Who can you invite in to experience His love today?
How Do I Pray Bold Prayers?
How Do I Pray Bold Prayers?
God has made himself accessible to us through prayer. The very God of the universe that knows the hairs on our heads has given us access to His heart through prayer. We are given access to His power, but most of the time when it comes to our prayers, we think too little of God, too much of ourselves, or the opposite, we can belittle ourselves into not praying at all! God wants your bold prayers- wall falling, Lazarus rising, waters parting - to shake the rafters of Heaven.

Why Should I Serve?
Why Should I Serve?
In the Old Testament, God walked with His people. In the New Testament, He became one of us through Jesus, embodying love and sacrifice. We are called to follow Jesus’ example by serving others sacrificially, even those we disagree with, because Jesus did this for us.

Desire is what we chase, whether big or small. While the world urges us to follow our flesh, the Kingdom calls us to live by the Spirit.

Get In The Game with Michael Jr.
The challenges from your past, which you once may have viewed as disadvantages, could actually be part of God's preparation for your future. Although you may not realize it, you’ve been practicing your talents and gifts since childhood. God will help you know when it’s “game time,” time to put that practice into play. Think of it like a navigation device in your car that recalculates your route when you veer off course; while missing your turns means the journey may become rougher and longer, if you’re listening, you can course correct and head toward your intended destination. Even during frustrating moments, God says, “Be Still” and know the Father's voice— He’s always present and loves you deeply.
