Focus: Loving beyond boundaries requires trust—trust in God’s love, trust in His provision, and trust that He is working through us to bless others. Too often, fear holds us back from fully committing—fear of scarcity, fear of the unknown, fear of not having enough. But Scripture reminds us: There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear (1 John 4:18). Today, as we make our financial commitments for the year, we do so without fear, knowing that our generosity is an expression of love beyond boundaries. Our giving is not just about sustaining a church; it is about...

Focus: The resurrection turns the world upside down—the grave is empty, death is defeated, and love reigns victorious. What seemed like the end was only the beginning. The first witnesses were the least expected, the risen Jesus appeared to the broken and afraid, and His command was not to retreat but to go beyond boundaries and proclaim life to all nations. In the upside-down Kingdom of God, hope is born from despair, power is revealed in humility, and victory comes through surrender. Because He lives, we are sent to love beyond all limits, carrying the message of resurrection to a world...

Focus: From the upper room to Golgotha, Jesus’ love remains steadfast. Betrayed, denied, and abandoned, He carries His cross through the suffering of rejection and pain. Yet, even in agony, He extends love beyond boundaries—praying for His enemies, welcoming a criminal into paradise, and surrendering His life for the world. In the upside-down Kingdom of God, power is revealed in sacrifice, and victory comes through the cross. Philippians 2:5-11; Isaiah 53

Focus: In the upper room, Jesus redefines leadership and love—not by taking a throne, but by kneeling under the towel to wash His disciples’ feet. As He breaks bread and shares the cup, He invites them into a new covenant of self-giving love. The way of Jesus is not about status but sacrifice, not about being served but serving. To love beyond boundaries means humbling ourselves, washing the feet of friends and betrayers alike, and embracing the way of the cross. John 13:1-17; Luke 22:14-20

Focus: As Jesus rides into Jerusalem, the crowd celebrates Him as King, yet within days, many will turn away. The way of the Kingdom is not about power and dominance but about crossing the road to show mercy, just as the Good Samaritan did. Jesus challenges us to love beyond comfort, moving across the road to serve, even when it leads to suffering. His path to the cross was an act of boundary-breaking love—one that invites us to walk in His footsteps. Luke 10:25-37; Matthew 21:1-11

Focus: God’s Word shapes our lives. Repetition, teaching, talking about His Word before, after and during, and making visible reminders are all ways of learning, remembering, and forming patterns and habits. This is what wholehearted commitment looks like. Deuteronomy 6:4-9

Focus: How do we respond to God’s presence in our homes? Do we create space for Him and treat Him as an honored part of our household? 2 Kings 4:8-10

Focus: As Jesus lives in our homes it’s most common that we are used to it, that we take it for granted, and that when we are intentional, it’s about doing things for Jesus instead of with Him. Instead, Jesus reminds us to choose the “better part”, and to prioritize spending time at His feet. Luke 10:38-42

Focus: There are many things we fill our time with, and which demand even more of it, and all of them leave us feeling incomplete. There is only one thing that truly satisfies our soul. We were created for God and to be connected with Him, so apart from Him we will always feel that connection which is missing.
