Too often, the modern church builds its entire grid around a single question: "Is this a sin?". But God wants to take us to another level. It’s not just about what is legal or forbidden; it’s about what is advantageous for your calling, your development, and your future. When we look at Jesus as our Savior but struggle to make Him our Owner, we compromise the very temple God paid a high price for.

Are you running on empty or trading your future for temporary comfort? This past Sunday, we kicked off Part 1 of our new morning series, "The Temple," diving deep into 1 Corinthians 6:12-20. Your body, soul, and spirit belong to God; you were bought with a price! Let’s reject cultural indifference, break toxic cycles, and choose to glorify God in everything we do.

Are you waiting for a wedding but missing the warnings? In the conclusion of our series, Pastor Micaiah dives into 1 Samuel 18 to uncover why so many marriage problems actually begin during the dating season.If you are a born-again Christian, you have a distinct calling and a consecrated purpose. Don't let your self-worth dictate what you settle for, and don't allow a bad partnership to delay what God has planned for your life. Remember: you are already complete in Christ.

Pastor Jane took us to Shiloh. We looked at the life of Hannah—a woman who walked through deep seasons of being misunderstood, provoked, and grieved. We learned that Shiloh is the place where our brokenness meets God’s sovereignty. It’s where we stop trying to control the timeline and start pouring out our souls to the One who sees us. Whether you are in a season of "bruising" or waiting for your "breakthrough," remember: God is immutable, He is always good, and He hears the prayers spoken in silence. Hannah eventually "went her way and ate, and her face was no longer sad" because she left her burden at the altar. What do you need to leave at the altar today?
