This week, Pastor Jim walks us through 1 Samuel 21–23, as David continues to flee from Saul and trust God in the middle of uncertainty and danger.

We also see moments of faithfulness and encouragement through friendships like Jonathan’s support for David. These chapters remind us that even in difficult seasons, God is present, leading and sustaining His people every step of the way.

This week, Pastor Jim brings an Easter message from Psalm 49:1–20. This psalm wrestles with the reality of death and reminds us that wealth, success, and status cannot save us. Left on our own, the future seems uncertain—but the psalm points us to a greater hope beyond the grave. At Easter, we’re reminded that the answer is found in Jesus. Because of His resurrection, death is not the end, and those who trust in Him have the promise of eternal life.

This week, we take time to reflect on Luke 22:14–20, where Jesus shares the Last Supper with His disciples and establishes what we now celebrate as Communion. In this moment, Jesus breaks the bread and shares the cup, pointing to His body and blood that would soon be given for us. It’s a powerful reminder of His sacrifice and the new covenant we have through Him. As we come to the table, we remember what Christ has done and respond with gratitude, humility, and worship.

This week, Pastor Jim walks us through 1 Samuel 13–14, where we begin to see the downfall of King Saul. Faced with pressure, Saul grows impatient and disobeys God by taking on a role that wasn’t his, showing a lack of trust in the Lord’s timing. His actions reveal a pattern of fear and self-reliance that ultimately costs him the kingdom. In contrast, Jonathan steps out in bold faith, trusting that God can bring victory no matter the odds. The passage challenges us to trust God fully, obey Him faithfully, and remember that He is the one who brings the victory.
