In The Hands of Provision, we explore the faith-shaping truth that God not only creates but continually sustains what He has made. Scripture reveals a God whose hands are never idle—providing, sustaining, correcting, and blessing His people according to His wisdom and timing. This message invites us to see provision as more than material supply; it is the steady, faithful care of a God who knows what His children need before they ask.

Central to this sermon is the ambidextrous nature of God’s work—His right and left hands acting in perfect harmony. The right hand of God is often associated with power, blessing, and victory, while the left hand represents hidden work, discipline, and refining care. Together, these hands remind us that provision sometimes looks like abundance and sometimes like restraint, waiting, or redirection. What feels withheld may actually be God shaping trust, dependence, and maturity.

The Hands of Provision calls us to shift our posture from anxiety to trust, learning to recognize God’s faithfulness in both the visible and unseen ways He provides. Whether through blessing or pruning, clarity or silence, God’s hands are always at work—forming a people who rely not on what they can grasp, but on the One who holds them.

In The Hands of Creation, we reflect on the powerful truth that God is not distant from His world but intimately involved in forming, sustaining, and delighting in all He has made. From the opening words of Genesis to the testimony of the Psalms, Scripture reveals a Creator who works with intention, beauty, and care—shaping creation not out of necessity, but out of love.

This message explores how God’s creative hands establish both order and purpose, reminding us that humanity is not accidental but intentionally formed in the image of God. We consider what it means to live as image-bearers in a created world, entrusted with stewardship, creativity, and responsibility. God’s hands not only bring life into being but continue to uphold it, inviting us to see His fingerprints in the ordinary and the sacred alike.

Ultimately, The Hands of Creation calls us to respond with worship, humility, and trust. When we recognize that the same hands that formed the universe also formed us, we are invited to rest in His design, honor His creation, and live lives that reflect the Creator’s heart.

Join us for another week of Romans Bible Study

In this week’s study, we walk through Romans 6–8, where Paul unpacks the believer’s new life in Christ. We discuss what it means to die to sin and live in the Spirit, the struggle of the flesh versus the freedom found in grace, and the assurance of God’s love that nothing can separate us from. These chapters remind us of the victory we have through Christ and call us to live empowered by the Spirit each day. We are also reminded that everything we have walked through in life is able to be used as we are promised in Romans 8:28, "all things".

This week we explored the heart of Paul’s message: that God’s righteousness is revealed apart from the Law and given freely through faith in Jesus Christ. We saw how Abraham’s story reminds us that faith, not works, is the foundation of our relationship with God. And we rejoiced in the hope and peace that come from being justified by faith and reconciled to God through Christ.

Be encouraged—your standing with God is secure, not because of what you’ve done, but because of what Christ has already accomplished. Walk this week in the peace and confidence of His grace, and remember: we stand in hope because we stand in Him!

Romans Bible Study – Week 1 Romans 1:1–3:20

In our first session of the Romans study, we explored Paul’s introduction to the gospel and his powerful argument for humanity’s need for salvation. Paul begins by affirming the gospel as the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes (1:16–17). He then unpacks the universal reality of sin—both for Gentiles and Jews—showing that all are accountable before God. By the end of chapter 3:20, Paul makes it clear that no one can be justified by works of the Law, because all have fallen short and stand in need of God’s righteousness.

Key Themes:

• The gospel reveals God’s righteousness (1:16–17).

• God’s wrath is against sin, but His plan of salvation is for all people (1:18–32).

• Both Jews and Gentiles are guilty and in need of grace (2:1–3:20).

• The Law cannot save—it only exposes sin (3:20).

This week challenged us to see the depth of our need for Christ and prepared us to dive into the heart of the gospel in the weeks ahead.

In John 2:1-12 we find Jesus and His disciples at the wedding at Cana in Galilee, and it is here that we are able to gain insight into the pouring place of our lives. John writes the story of Jesus so that it can be understood that while He is human, He is also divine. John emphasizes the glory of Christ. This story often times has the emphasis placed on the wine itself being made from water as the miracle but could it be about the pouring place instead? It is when we run out of who we are and all of which we can supply ourselves that we reach the pouring place in our life. Who would be better to teach about the pouring place than God Himself poured out to us?
