January 15, 2026 | Becoming Like Jesus Scripture: Acts 2:42 “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship.” The early church didn’t treat faith as something optional or occasional. Scripture says they devoted  themselves. It means they showed up consistently , not perfectly, but intentionally . Faith wasn’t something they squeezed in when life got hard. It was central to how they lived each day. They devoted themselves to teaching and fellowship. In oth

January 14, 2026 | Becoming Like Jesus Scripture: 2 Timothy 2:2 “Entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others.” Discipleship was never designed to stop with us. Paul describes a chain of faith, passed intentionally from one life to another. What God forms in you is meant to flow through you . Discipleship is not reserved for experts or leaders. It is simply sharing what you are learning from Jesus, living it out daily, and becoming more like Jesus

January 13, 2026 | Becoming Like Jesus Scripture: James 1:22 “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” The Bible is meant to be lived, not just studied. James reminds us that it’s possible to hear God’s Word often and still miss its impact. Knowing Scripture without putting it into practice doesn’t lead to change.

January 12, 2026 | Becoming Like Jesus Scripture: Psalm 95:6 “Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.” Worship has a quiet power. It brings us back to center when life has pulled us out of alignment. When we bow before God, something changes inside of us. Pride softens. Anxiety fades. Our perspective improves. Worship reminds us who God is and who we are in relation to Him. This passage uses physical language: bowing and kneeling. That’s beca

January 11, 2026 | Becoming Like Jesus Scripture: Luke 11: “Lord, teach us to pray.” Prayer may not come naturally, but the more we do it, the more comfortable we become. Especially when we recognize that prayer is a conversation with God, your Heavenly Father--the One who created you, and loves you so much! And, if at first, you don't feel comfortable praying, just begin by telling God that you're unsure how to do it, and ask for His help. Even the disciples asked Jesus how

January 10, 2026 | Becoming Like Jesus Scripture: Ecclesiastes 4:9–10 “Two are better than one… If either of them falls down, one can help the other up.” Faith can grow tired when we try to carry it alone. God never intended us to walk through life by ourselves . Community gives strength when our endurance starts to fade and reminds us that we’re not meant to face struggles in isolation. God places people in our lives for a reason. Sometimes they help us before we even re
