Romans 5:8 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Pastor Jeff reminds us today that there is peace and joy when families obey God. But when we sin and try to hide it, we end up with hard feelings and hard times.
1 John 1:8 8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.
Pastor Jeff teaches us today that God's rules aren't to spoil our fun—they're there to help us make good choices that lead to peace, joy, and safety.
Genesis 3:23 23 So the Lord God drove the man out of the Garden of Eden. He sent the man to farm the ground he had been made from.

Today is FRI-YAY! And shout-out day! Today, Pastor Jeff asks - Have you ever wished you had a time machine to zoom into the future and see what would happen?
Matthew 6:34 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Have you ever wondered how you take your next breath or how the sun rises every morning? Join Pastor Jeff as we explore Jesus' teaching from Matthew 6 together and find the answers to these questions.
Matthew 6:31-33 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
Today, Pastor Jeff teaches us that God's "best" may not always be the fanciest or flashiest—but it's precisely what we need.
Matthew 6:28-29 28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.
Pastor Jeff reminds us today that when we stop worrying and start trusting, we see how faithful God really is.
Matthew 6:26-27 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
Happy Monday! This is our last week for our VBS lessons, and we will talk about God's faithfulness and what Jesus taught in Matthew 6:25-34.
Matthew 6:25 25 “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
Today is FRI-YAY! And a shout-out day for a birthday girl! Today, Pastor Jeff teaches us that the scriptures teach that Jesus came to bring a different kind of kingdom—one where forgiveness, love, and new life are the most powerful things.
1 Corinthians 15:3-5 3 I passed on to you what was most important and what had also been passed on to me. Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. 4 He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said. 5 He was seen by Peter[a] and then by the Twelve.
Join Pastor Jeff today as he teaches us that when Jesus forgives us, He also gives us a brand-new purpose.
John 3:21 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
Today, Pastor Jeff talks about something incredible - Instead of giving us what we deserved, God gave us grace. That's what magnifies His forgiveness!
John 3:17 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
Today, Pastor Jeff reminds us that when we believe in Jesus, God forgives our sins and fills our hearts with His Spirit. That's how huge His forgiveness is—it cost Him everything, yet He offers it to us for free.
John 3:16 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
This is week 4 for our VBS lessons, and it is all about Magnifying God's forgiveness. Join Pastor Jeff as we explore the story of Jesus and Nicodemus this week from John 3.
John 3:5-8 5 Jesus answered, “What I’m about to tell you is true. No one can enter God’s kingdom unless they are born with water and the Holy Spirit. 6 People give birth to people. But the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised when I say, ‘You must all be born again.’ 8 The wind blows where it wants to. You hear the sound it makes. But you can’t tell where it comes from or where it is going. It is the same with everyone who is born with the Spirit.”
It is FRI-YAY! And with a special shout-out. Today, Pastor Jeff teaches us that when we live for Jesus, tell others about Him, and show His love in how we act, we help others "see" God more clearly, just like the woman at the well did.
John 4:25-26 25 The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.” 26 Then Jesus declared, “I, the one speaking to you—I am he.”
Pastor Jeff shares today that sometimes, God answers prayers in surprising ways, ways we might not understand at first, but they are even better.
John 4:11 and 13-14 11 “Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? 13 Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”
Today, Pastor Jeff reminds us that Jesus sees our hearts and that each person He created is important to Him.
John 4:9-10 9 The Samaritan woman said to him, “You are a Jew. I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?” She said this because Jews don’t have anything to do with Samaritans. 10 Jesus answered her, “You do not know what God’s gift is. And you do not know who is asking you for a drink. If you did, you would have asked him. He would have given you living water.”
Sometimes, we think we have to say or do something huge to show God's love. But Pastor Jeff reminds us that, just like Jesus, we can start with something small.
John 4:6-7 6 Jacob’s well was there. Jesus was tired from the journey. So he sat down by the well. It was about noon. 7 A woman from Samaria came to get some water. Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?”
This is week 3 of our VBS lessons, and it is all about Magnifying God's Love. Today, Pastor Jeff shares that Jesus comes right to where you are—at home, school, church, or anywhere else.
John 4:4-5 4 Jesus had to go through Samaria. 5 He came to a town in Samaria called Sychar. It was near the piece of land Jacob had given his son Joseph.
This week, Pastor Jeff has been talking about Magnifying God's Care and how we can learn to trust God to take care of us because God cares about each of us.
Mark 4:40-41 40 He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Don’t you have any faith at all yet?” 41 They were terrified. They asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”
Today, Pastor Jeff reminds us of something very important. When we rest in Jesus, we’re saying, “I trust You, God. I know You care for me.”
Mark 4:39 39 He got up and ordered the wind to stop. He said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down. And it was completely calm.
Today, Pastor Jeff teaches us that just like the disciples took Jesus in their boat, you can invite Him into your day, heart, and life. No matter where you go, you never go alone.
Mark 4:37-38 37 A wild storm came up. Waves crashed over the boat. It was about to sink. 38 Jesus was in the back, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him up. They said, “Teacher! Don’t you care if we drown?”
Today, Pastor Jeff reminds us that you don't have to be a grown-up to follow Jesus or talk to Him. You're important to Him right now.
Mark 4:36 36 They left the crowd behind. And they took him along in a boat, just as he was. There were also other boats with him.
Happy Monday!
This week, we will learn about Magnifying God's Care. Today, Pastor Jeff wants you to know that God takes care of the details in our lives.
Mark 4:35 35 When evening came, Jesus said to his disciples, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.”
It is FRI-YAY! And shout-out day! Today, Pastor Jeff reminds us that every time we see God answering our prayers, showing us His love, or helping us through hard times, we can magnify His faithfulness.
Luke 1:46 46 And Mary said: “My soul magnifies the Lord.
Pastor Jeff teaches us today in Psalm 69:30 and tells us we can magnify God — make Him look big and wonderful — by giving Him thanks!
Psalm 69:30 30 I will praise the name of God with a song, And will magnify Him with thanksgiving.
Today, Pastor Jeff encourages you to magnify God by smiling, singing, helping someone, or simply saying, "God is so good!"
Psalm 40:16 16 Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; Let such as love Your salvation say continually, “The Lord be magnified!”
Today, Pastor Jeff teaches us that when we come to Jesus with excitement, like when we can't wait to open a gift, we magnify Him!
Mark 10:14-15 14 When Jesus saw this, he was angry. He said to his disciples, “Let the little children come to me. Don’t keep them away. God’s kingdom belongs to people like them. 15 What I’m about to tell you is true. Anyone who will not receive God’s kingdom like a little child will never enter it.”
Happy Monday! Today, Pastor Jeff starts a five-week new series called MAGNIFIED. This week, we will Magnify God.
Mark 10:13 13 People were bringing little children to Jesus. They wanted him to place his hands on them to bless them. But the disciples told them to stop.

Matthew 7:28-29 28 When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching, 29 because he taught as one who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law.

Matthew 7:27 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
Today, Pastor Jeff shares that we all should be good listeners. Listening means that something needs to change inside the listener.
Matthew 7:26 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.
Today, Pastor Jeff reminds us that being intentional about living out Jesus' teachings gives us a firm foundation for enduring any storms in our lives.
Matthew 7: 25 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
Happy Monday! This week, Pastor Jeff will explore the parable of the Wise and Foolish Builders. Today, he reminds us that Jesus says we should build our lives on His kingdom. Jesus says we are wise when we listen to His words and put them into practice.
Matthew 7:24 24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
Today is FRI-YAY! Our verse today reminds us that God is our Refuge and our Rock, and He is our solid foundation.
Psalm 18:30-31 30 As for God, his way is perfect: The Lord’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him. 31 For who is God besides the Lord? And who is the Rock except our God?
Pastor Jeff reminds us today that even when we go through hard times, we can stand on Jesus, our rock. He listens to our prayers and comforts us.
Psalm 31:2 2 Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me.
Today, Pastor Jeff shares from 1 Corinthians 10 how Jesus is our spiritual rock for our everyday needs.
1 Corinthians 10:3-4 3 They all ate the same spiritual food 4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ.
Today, we learn about Simon Peter, one of Jesus' disciples, and how his declaration became the foundation for the church of Jesus Christ.
Matthew 16:16-18 16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven. 18 And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.
Happy Monday! We continue our series - Jesus is my Rock, and today Pastor Jeff teaches from Psalm 62:2.
Psalm 62:2 2 Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.
Today is Good Friday and we remember the greatest act of love that God showed to us. Because of God's love for us, He sent Jesus to take our place and die for our sins.
Mark 15:46 46 So Joseph bought some linen cloth, took down the body, wrapped it in the linen, and placed it in a tomb cut out of rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.
Today, Pastor Jeff shares a dream that was revealed to a powerful king: that Jesus is the Rock, our Savior.
Daniel 2:34 34 While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them.
Today, Pastor Jeff shares from one of Jesus' Parables. In this parable, Jesus describes that our lives will have storms. It is not a matter of IF, as a matter of WHEN.
Matthew 7:24-25 24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
We are in our new series - Jesus is My Rock, and today, we learn that we will never be satisfied with anything in life unless we have God, the Rock, who provides for all our needs.
Deuteronomy 32:13 13 He made him ride on the heights of the land and fed him with the fruit of the fields. He nourished him with honey from the rock, and with oil from the flinty crag
This week, we will start a new series called Jesus is My Rock. For the next four weeks, Pastor Jeff will walk us through Bible verses that teach us that Jesus was, is, and will always be our Rock.
Psalm 18:2 2 The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield[a] and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
It is FRI-YAY! And shout-out day. As we wrap up our Bible Characters series with Joseph today, we learn with Pastor Jeff that Joseph forgave his brothers and saw God's hand in his life.
Genesis 45:5-7 5 And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you. 6 For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will be no plowing and reaping. 7 But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
Today, Pastor Jeff tells us about when Joseph interpreted Pharaoh's dreams. You might not need to interpret a friend's dream, but when you see your friend sad or anxious about something, you can say that God is in control. God loves and cares for every one of us.
Genesis 41:28-30 28 “It is just as I said to Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do. 29 Seven years of great abundance are coming throughout the land of Egypt, 30 but seven years of famine will follow them. Then all the abundance in Egypt will be forgotten, and the famine will ravage the land.
Pastor Jeff teaches us today that, like Joseph, we should be aware that what we have or do is a daily gift from God.
Genesis 41:39-40 39 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one so discerning and wise as you. 40 You shall be in charge of my palace, and all my people are to submit to your orders. Only with respect to the throne will I be greater than you.”
Today, Pastor Jeff shares that, just like we learned with Daniel, Joseph quickly recognized God's glory and power when the time came.
Genesis 41:15-16 15 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, and no one can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.” 16 “I cannot do it,” Joseph replied to Pharaoh, “but God will give Pharaoh the answer he desires.”
This is the last week of the Bible Characters of the Old Testament series, and Pastor Jeff will share about Joseph. Today, we learn that Joseph teaches us that even in hard situations, we can serve God in His strength, and the Lord can work wonders through us.
Genesis 39:2-4 2 The Lord was with Joseph so that he prospered, and he lived in the house of his Egyptian master. 3 When his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord gave him success in everything he did, 4 Joseph found favor in his eyes and became his attendant. Potiphar put him in charge of his household, and he entrusted to his care everything he owned.
It is FRI-YAY! And shout-out day. Today, Pastor Jeff shares that God planned for each person in our family to be born and to keep on with the family line.
Ruth 4:18-22 18 This, then, is the family line of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron, 19 Hezron the father of Ram, Ram the father of Amminadab, 20 Amminadab the father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon, 21 Salmon the father of Boaz, Boaz the father of Obed, 22 Obed the father of Jesse, and Jesse the father of David.
In Ruth's story, today we learn with Pastor Jeff that as Ruth had shown kindness to Naomi, her mother-in-law, by leaving her country, Boaz, a close relative of Naomi, also showed kindness to Ruth.
Ruth 4:11 11 Then the elders and all the people at the gate said, “We are witnesses. May the Lord make the woman who is coming into your home like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the family of Israel. May you have standing in Ephrathah and be famous in Bethlehem.
Pastor Jeff shares today through the story of Ruth that God is in control of all things and provides for our needs in many ways.
Ruth 2:2-3 2 And Ruth the Moabite said to Naomi, “Let me go to the fields and pick up the leftover grain behind anyone in whose eyes I find favor.” Naomi said to her, “Go ahead, my daughter.” 3 So she went out, entered a field and began to glean behind the harvesters. As it turned out, she was working in a field belonging to Boaz, who was from the clan of Elimelek.
Today, Pastor Jeff shares about Ruth's beautiful commitment to her mother-in-law. God showed us the greatest commitment when he sent Jesus as our Savior and Lord.
Ruth 1:16-18 16 But Ruth replied, “Don’t urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go, I will go, and where you stay, I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. 17 Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord deal with me, be it ever so severely, if even death separates you and me.” 18 When Naomi realized that Ruth was determined to go with her, she stopped urging her.
Happy Monday! We are in week 5 of our Bible Characters series, and we will learn more about Ruth with Pastor Jeff. Today, we learn about her kindness.
Ruth 1:8 8 Then Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, “Go back, each of you, to your mother’s home. May the Lord show you kindness, as you have shown kindness... to me.
It is FRI-YAY! And shout-out day! Today, we learn with Pastor Jeff that David loved the scriptures because they are God's Word to us. David describes the Bible as perfect, refreshing, true, right, and radiant.
Psalm 19:7-8 7 The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. 8 The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
In our Bible Character Series, Pastor Jeff continues to share about David and how he invites us to experience what he has discovered: the goodness of God's salvation.
Psalm 34:8 8 Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.
Today, Pastor Jeff teaches that David, the shepherd king, worshiped God with all his might!
2 Samuel 6:14-15 14 Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might, 15 while he and all Israel were bringing up the ark of the Lord with shouts and the sound of trumpets.
Today, people may think that being Christian and joining a church is because you are good enough to do so. However, Pastor Jeff shares that David taught us that we all sin and need forgiveness. Psalm 32:1 1 Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
This week, we will learn about David with Pastor Jeff in our Bible Characters series. The Bible tells us that David was a man after God's heart. This means that he was dependent on God in everything.
Psalm 23:1-3 1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3 he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.
It is FRI-YAY! And shout out day! Today, we learn with Pastor Jeff that God gives us signs when He makes a promise. And He is always faithful and true to His promises.
Genesis 9:16-17 16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.” 17 So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth.”
This is our FRI-YAY Episode from March 14 with a special shout-out! We learned that Noah found favor in God's eyes, walked faithfully with God, obeyed God even when it was hard, and was courageous. Today, we see God making a promise to Noah after the flood.
Genesis 9:16-17 16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.” 17 So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth.”
Today we learn that, like Noah, God invites us to step in faith by being kind to someone, sharing the gospel with a friend, or helping even when it is uncomfortable.
Genesis 6:22 22 And Noah did this. He did everything that God had commanded him.
Today, Pastor Jeff shares that Noah's story teaches us that paying attention to warnings can save you lots of trouble if you act on it.
Hebrews 11:7 (a) 7 By faith Noah, after he was warned about what was not yet seen and motivated by godly fear, built an ark to deliver his family.
Today, we learn with Pastor Jeff how Noah walked faithfully with God.
Genesis 6:9 9 This is the account of Noah and his family. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked faithfully with God.
We are on week 3 of our Bible characters series, and we will learn more about the character of a man named Noah. Today, we learn with Pastor Jeff that Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.
Genesis 6:5, 8 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become . . . But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.
As we learn more about Esther with Pastor Jeff, today we learn how prudent she was in her request to the king and how we can follow her example.
Esther 7:3 3 Queen Esther answered, “If I have found favor with you, Your Majesty, and if the king is pleased, spare my life; this is my request. And spare my people; this is my desire.
Today, Pastor Jeff teaches that Esther, like Daniel, did an important thing before taking action: She prayed.
Esther 4:16 16 “Go and assemble all the Jews who can be found in Susa and fast for me. Don’t eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my female servants will also fast in the same way. After that, I will go to the king even if it is against the law. If I perish, I perish.”
Pastor Jeff is sharing about Esther this week, and today, he teaches how she showed wisdom and patience.
Esther 5:8 8 If I have found favor in the eyes of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and perform my request, may the king and Haman come to the banquet I will prepare for them. Tomorrow I will do what the king has asked.”
This is our second week on Bible Characters from the Old Testament. Last week, we learned about Daniel's life, and this week, we will learn about Esther. Pastor Jeff shares that where you are now is no accident. God has placed you there for a purpose!
Esther 4:14 14 If you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will come to the Jewish people from another place, but you and your father’s family will be destroyed. Who knows, perhaps you have come to your royal position for such a time as this.”
It is FRI-YAY! And shout-out day to a special listener from New Orleans,
We learned with Pastor Jeff this week that Daniel was wise, patient, humble, obedient, and trustworthy; today, we learn that Daniel was courageous. Daniel 6:16 16 So the king gave the order, and they brought Daniel and threw him into the lions’ den. The king said to Daniel, “May your God, whom you continually serve, rescue you!”
Join Pastor Jeff as he shares more about Daniel and his character. Today we learn that Daniel was trustworthy.
Daniel 6:4 4 The administrators and satraps, therefore, kept trying to find a charge against Daniel regarding the kingdom. But they could find no charge or corruption, for he was trustworthy, and no negligence or corruption was found in him.
Today, Pastor Jeff shares that Daniel remained obedient even when it was hard.
Daniel 4:19 19 Then Daniel (also called Belteshazzar) was greatly perplexed for a time, and his thoughts terrified him. So the king said, “Belteshazzar, do not let the dream or its meaning alarm you.” Belteshazzar answered, “My lord, if only the dream applied to your enemies and its meaning to your adversaries!
Today Pastor Jeff shares Daniel's character when he showed humility and gave glory to the God in Heaven for allowing him to do the impossible.
Daniel 2:27-28(a) 27 Daniel answered the king, “No wise man, medium, magician, or diviner is able to make known to the king the mystery he asked about. 28 But there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries
This week, we will start a new series about Bible Characters from the Old Testament. We will learn from Daniel, David, Joseph, Ruth, Noah, and Esther and be encouraged to live by their example.

Today is FRY-YAY! And shout-out day! If you want Pastor Jeff to shout your name, please email creekkids@sugarcreek.net. Today is also the last day for our Golden Rule series, and Pastor Jeff shares that our verse today says that when Jesus forgives our sins, our hearts will be clean again.
Isaiah 1:18 18 “Come, let’s settle this,” says the Lord. “Though your sins are scarlet, they will be as white as snow; though they are crimson red, they will be like wool.
Today, in our Golden Rule series, Pastor Jeff reminds us of an essential aspect of forgiveness. In the same way, we repent and ask for forgiveness; we need to forgive others.
Mark 11:25 25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”
Today, Pastor Jeff reminds us once more that when we sin against someone on purpose or accidentally do something that causes them harm, we should apologize and ask for their forgiveness.
Proverbs 28:13 13 Anyone who hides their sins doesn’t succeed. But anyone who admits their sins and gives them up finds mercy.
We are not perfect, and we all sin. Today, Pastor Jeff encourages us to ask God to forgive our sins.
1 John 1:7 7 If we walk in the light as he himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.
Today is the last week of our Golden Rule Series, and Pastor Jeff will talk about Forgiveness. Today, we learn that we want to be people who ask for Forgiveness.

Today it is FRI-YAY! And shout-out day! Pastor Jeff reminds us that Jesus showed us kindness when we did not deserve it, and He took our place for the sins we committed.
Romans 5:8 8 But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.
Today, Pastor Jeff shares an amazing truth: When we believe in Jesus and what He did for us, we can ask God to forgive us for our sins, and He will forgive us through Jesus.
John 3:17 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
This week, we are learning with Pastor Jeff about the Good News or the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and today's verse sums it up beautifully.
John 3:16 16 “For this is how God loved the world: He gave[a] his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life."
This week, we’re talking about something Jesus did that was HUGE. It was really the kindest, most loving thing anyone has ever done.
Ephesians 2:4-5 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love that he had for us,[a] 5 made us alive with Christ even though we were dead in trespasses. You are saved by grace!
Happy Monday!
Pastor Jeff is back, and this is week 6 of our Golden Rule Series. This week, we will learn about the incredible kindness Jesus Christ showed us.
Romans 3:23-24 23 For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. 24 Yet God, in his grace, freely makes us right in his sight. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins.
Happy Valentine's Day! Today is shout-out day, and Mrs. Tobi will share how Zacchaeus showed kindness to others.
Luke 19:8 8 But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.”
Today, we learn the parable of the unmerciful servant with Mrs. Tobi. This is not a story that shows how to be kind but warns us to watch how we treat others.
Matthew 18:32-33 32 “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33 Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’
This week, we are exploring kindness in our Golden Rule series, learning with Mrs. Tobi about a widow who showed kindness to Elijah.
1 Kings 17:13-14 13 And Elijah said to her, “Do not fear; go and do as you have said. But first make me a little cake of it and bring it to me, and afterward make something for yourself and your son. 14 For thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘The jar of flour shall not be spent, and the jug of oil shall not be empty, until the day that the Lord sends rain upon the earth.’”
Today, we learn with Mrs. Tobi a story of kindness from the Bible, and it is significant because it takes place during Jesus’ arrest.
Luke 22:49-51 49 And when those who were around him saw what would follow, they said, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?” 50 And one of them struck the servant[a] of the high priest and cut off his right ear. 51 But Jesus said, “No more of this!” And he touched his ear and healed him.
Happy Monday! Please join Mrs. Tobi for week 5 of our Golden Rule series. This week is all about kindness! Today’s verses come from a story that Jesus taught about kindness: The Good Samaritan.
Luke 10:36-37 36 Which of these three, do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?” 37 He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” And Jesus said to him, “You go, and do likewise.”
Today is shoutout day! Join us as we learn the story of Ruth and Naomi with Mrs. Tobi. This Bible story contains love, kindness, hope, and respect.
Ruth 1:16-17 16 But Ruth replied: Don’t plead with me to abandon you or to return and not follow you. For wherever you go, I will go, and wherever you live, I will live; your people will be my people, and your God will be my God. 17 Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord punish me, and do so severely, if anything but death separates you and me.
In our Golden Rule series, we will learn with Mrs. Tobi about the parable of the prodigal son, where we see love, respect, forgiveness, and more.
Luke 15:20-21 20 So he got up and went to his father. But while the son was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion. He ran, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him. 21 The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight. I’m no longer worthy to be called your son.’
Today’s story shows us another example of how we obey earthly authorities while honoring God first and foremost. We will learn about Nehemiah with Mrs. Tobi.
Nehemiah 2:4-5 4 Then the king asked me, “What is your request?” So I prayed to the God of the heavens 5 and answered the king, “If it pleases the king, and if your servant has found favor with you, send me to Judah and to the city where my ancestors are buried,[a] so that I may rebuild it.”
Please join Mrs. Tobi today as she helps us understand what we do if authority goes against what God says. This can be seen in the story of Daniel in the Lion’s Den.
Daniel 6:10 10 When Daniel learned that the document had been signed, he went into his house. The windows in its upstairs room opened toward Jerusalem, and three times a day he got down on his knees, prayed, and gave thanks to his God, just as he had done before.
This is week 4 out of 7 in our GOLDEN RULE series. This week, we will explore with Mrs. Tobi Bible Stories that teach us about respect. Today, we learn with Jesus how to respect authority.
Matthew 22:18-21 18 Perceiving their malicious intent, Jesus said, “Why are you testing me, hypocrites? 19 Show me the coin used for the tax.” They brought him a denarius.[a] 20 “Whose image and inscription is this?” he asked them. 21 “Caesar’s,” they said to him. Then he said to them, “Give, then, to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”

The king said to Daniel, “May your God, whom you serve continually, rescue you!” 19 At the first light of dawn, the king got up and hurried to the lions’ den. 20 When he came near the den, he called to Daniel in an anguished voice, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to rescue you from the lions?” 21 Daniel answered, “May the king live forever! 22 My God sent his angel, and he shut the mouths of the lions.
Today we learn from Daniel that obedience to God's law is non-negotiable and unchangeable. Please join Pastor Jeff in this amazing podcast episode!

Today Pastor Jeff shares more about Daniel. Daniel lived a life above reproach. He had been making good choices since he was young, always choosing to trust and follow God. Daniel 6:3-4 3 Now Daniel so distinguished himself among the administrators and the satraps by his exceptional qualities that the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom. 4 At this, the administrators and the satraps tried to find grounds for charges against Daniel in his conduct of government affairs, but they were unable to do so. They could find no corruption in him, because he was trustworthy and neither corrupt nor negligent.

The king watched the hand as it wrote.

Daniel 4:36-37 36 At the same time that my sanity was restored, my honor and splendor were returned to me for the glory of my kingdom. My advisers and nobles sought me out, and I was restored to my throne and became even greater than before. 37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven, because everything he does is right and all his ways are just. And those who walk in pride he is able to humble.

His dominion is an eternal dominion; his kingdom endures from generation to generation. 35 All the peoples of the earth are regarded as nothing. He does as he pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back his hand or say to him: “What have you done?”
Today Pastor Jeff teaches us that God speaks to us in many ways—through His Holy Spirit dwelling within us, through His Word, the Bible, and through the counsel of those around us.
Daniel 4:28-31 28 All this happened to King Nebuchadnezzar. 29 Twelve months later, as the king was walking on the roof of the royal palace of Babylon, 30 he said, “Is not this the great Babylon I have built as the royal residence, by my mighty power and for the glory of my majesty?” 31 Even as the words were on his lips, a voice came from heaven, “This is what is decreed for you, King Nebuchadnezzar: Your royal authority has been taken from you."
Join Pastor Jeff today as he continues to share from the book of Daniel. God provides us chances to repent our sins every day. And there is only way to do that. it is by accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior!
Daniel 4: 24,25 and 27 24 “This is the interpretation, Your Majesty, and this is the decree the Most High has issued against my lord the king: 25 You will be driven away from people and will live with the wild animals; you will eat grass like the ox and be drenched with the dew of heaven. Seven times will pass by for you until you acknowledge that the Most High is sovereign over all kingdoms on earth and gives them to anyone he wishes. 27 Therefore, Your Majesty, be pleased to accept my advice: Renounce your sins by doing what is right, and your wickedness by being kind to the oppressed. It may be that then your prosperity will continue.”
Happy Monday! Today Pastor Jeff reminds us that a life without God might seem comfy and filled with good stuff, but it's not the best life we can live.
Daniel 4:4-5 4 I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at home in my palace, contented and prosperous. 5 I had a dream that made me afraid. As I was lying in bed, the images and visions that passed through my mind terrified me. 8 Finally, Daniel came into my presence and I told him the dream.

Daniel 3:26-27 26 Nebuchadnezzar then approached the opening of the blazing furnace and shouted, “Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out! Come here!” So Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego came out of the fire, 27 and the satraps, prefects, governors and royal advisers crowded around them. They saw that the fire had not harmed their bodies, nor was a hair of their heads singed; their robes were not scorched, and there was no smell of fire on them.
Today Pastor Jeff will challenges us with some important questions. What do you believe about God? How does your belief in God shape the choices you make? Can you trust God even when things get tough, just like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego?
Daniel 3:24-25 24 Then King Nebuchadnezzar leaped to his feet in amazement and asked his advisers, “Weren’t there three men that we tied up and threw into the fire?” They replied, “Certainly, Your Majesty.” 25 He said, “Look! I see four men walking around in the fire, unbound and unharmed, and the fourth looks like a son of the gods.”
Today we learn that Shadrach, Meshach were in a situation that was completely out of their control. But they knew one important thing. God was there with them.
Daniel 3:16-18 16 Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. 17 If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us[a] from Your Majesty’s hand. 18 But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.”

He made him ruler over the entire province of Babylon and placed him in charge of all its wise men.
Today Pastor Jeff encourages us to make it a habit to give glory to God for everything we have and everything we are. After all, He's the one who gives us our abilities!
Daniel 2:26-28 26 The king asked Daniel (also called Belteshazzar), “Are you able to tell me what I saw in my dream and interpret it?” 27 Daniel replied, “No wise man, enchanter, magician or diviner can explain to the king the mystery he has asked about, 28 but there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries. He has shown King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in days to come.
