How is everyone holding up with this week's content? Patience might be the fruit we talk about the least but need the most. And this week reframes it completely — it's not passivity, it's not gritting your teeth. It's active endurance. Staying under the weight when everything in you wants to escape. Affliction produces endurance. Endurance produces proven character. Proven character produces hope. That chain is real and the Holy Spirit is sustaining every link of it — including the one you're in right now. What has God been building in you through this week's devotionals? Drop your notes, a prayer, or the truth that's been carrying you — let's hear what He's doing! 💛 This Saturday, be sure to update your Workbook for part two of the nine Week Study.

How is everyone doing with this week? Peace is one of those things we spend so much energy chasing — rearranging circumstances, avoiding conflict, hoping things finally settle. But this week reframes all of that. Peace isn't a condition you create. It's a person. And where He governs, shalom — nothing missing, nothing broken — is already present. The verdict is in. You're not climbing toward peace with God, you're already standing in it. That truth alone has the power to quiet a lot of the noise. What has God been speaking to you through your devotionals this week? Drop your notes, share what hit home, tell us your moment — we really want to know what He's showing you! 🌿

How is everyone sitting with this week's content? This one challenges something we all carry — the idea that joy and happiness are the same thing. Happiness depends on everything going right. Joy is something else entirely. It's covenantal. It's built on who God is, not on what's happening around you. Habakkuk lost everything and still chose to say yet I will rejoice. That word yet is doing so much work. Joy isn't the absence of pain — it's what holds you when pain is very much present. What has been hitting you differently this week? Drop your notes, a prayer, or the thing from your devotionals that you can't stop thinking about. Let's hear it! 🕊️

How is everyone doing with this week's content? This one sets the foundation for everything we're going to walk through this month. The kind of love Scripture describes isn't something you feel when conditions are right — it's a nature. A settled choice. It moves toward people not because they've earned it, but because of who God is and what He's placed in you. The cross is the model. God moved first toward people who had done nothing to deserve it. That changes everything about how we love the people in our lives. What is God stirring in you through your devotionals this week? Drop your notes, share a prayer, or tell us the moment that stopped you — we want to hear what He's doing in you! 🤍 Look forward to seeing you tomorrow on Ask The Pastor Live June 4th, 2026 3-4pm PST https://www.youtube.com/live/93jF2daSy0o?si=PljXms3i3JWqAJmL
