We often assume faith grows best in big moments—the breakthroughs, the mountaintops, the miracles everyone can see. But Scripture, and real life, tell a different story.

In today’s devotional, we’re reminded that faith grows in the ordinary.

Drawing inspiration from the song “Ordinary” by Alex Warren and the life of Jesus Himself, this episode explores how God most often works—not through spectacle, but through steady faithfulness. Jesus spent most of His life doing ordinary things: working, walking, eating meals, and teaching the same truths again and again. Very few miracles. Very little applause. But enormous faithfulness.

📖 Scripture referenced:

• Luke 16:10 — “Whoever is faithful in very little is also faithful in much.”

Faithfulness doesn’t start with much. It starts with little. With routine. With unseen obedience.

Prayer whispered in the car. Scripture read before the house wakes up. Grace chosen in a hard conversation. Trust held onto when there’s no immediate answer.

That’s not weak faith. That’s grown faith.

If today feels ordinary, don’t rush past it. God is forming something in you that only grows in consistency—not spectacle.

Faith doesn’t need fireworks. It needs faithfulness.

In this episode, we reflect on a simple but powerful truth of the gospel: God’s holiness is not weakened by our brokenness—it overcomes it.

After a weekend volleyball tournament with my daughter and her team, sickness began to spread. It reminded me of an assumption we all live with—that when something clean touches something dirty, the clean becomes contaminated.

But Scripture tells a very different story.

In the kingdom of God, when the dirty touches the clean, the dirty becomes clean.

We explore how Jesus consistently turned this assumption upside down—how He didn’t avoid broken people, but moved toward them. From the plank in our own eye, to the basin of dirty water at His feet, to the leper He touched and healed, we see that holiness isn’t fragile and grace isn’t threatened.

Under the Old Testament sacrificial system, God asked for the first and best—not because He needed it, but because the clean made the unclean acceptable. That same truth finds its fulfillment in Jesus, who doesn’t require us to clean ourselves up before coming to Him.

You come as you are—and His holiness does the work.

📖 Scripture referenced:

• Matthew 7:3
• Mark 1:41
• Isaiah 1:18

If you’re carrying places in your life that still feel messy, unfinished, or unclean, this episode is an invitation to bring them to Jesus—and trust that clean always wins.

Have you ever looked at your life and thought, this doesn’t make sense?

In today’s devotional, we talk about the tension we all face between what we feel and what we believe—especially when life feels confusing, prayers go unanswered, and God seems silent.

The Bible reminds us that our deepest struggle isn’t always pain—it’s confusion. We want explanations. We want clarity. But instead of explanations, God often offers something better: peace.

We explore what it means that God is sovereign, looking at the biblical idea that the Lord reigns—not distantly, not passively, but actively ruling with purpose and love, even when we can’t see how.

Scripture referenced:

• Psalm 103:19
• Isaiah 26:3

This episode is an invitation to rest—not in understanding everything—but in trusting the One who does.

If life doesn’t make sense right now, this reminder is for you: God is sovereign. God is good. And you are not alone.

Sometimes the most unsettling part of faith isn’t the storm—it’s the lack of control.

In this daily devotional, we return to one of the most familiar stories in Scripture: Noah’s Ark. While many of us know the story well, there’s a detail that often gets overlooked—God gave Noah precise instructions for building the Ark, but He didn’t give him a way to steer it.

No rudder. No sail. No steering wheel.

The Ark wasn’t designed for navigation. It was designed to float.

This episode reflects on what it means to obey God when we don’t have control over the outcome—and how faith often requires trusting God before the storm ever arrives.

Scripture referenced: Genesis 6:22 — “Noah did everything just as God commanded him.”

If you’re in a season where direction feels unclear and control feels out of reach, this devotional is an invitation to let God be the Captain—and to trust Him to carry you through the storm.
