The devil cannot rest. We should. Rest is holy. - Rest. Episode 37
Faith Journey | Rev. Kenn Blanchard
• In scripture and tradition, the devil is often portrayed as wandering, roaming, seeking whom he may devour. He’s never at peace because he’s cut off from grace. • Restlessness is a symptom of exile. The devil cannot rest because he cannot dwell in love, cannot abide in truth, cannot be still in the presence of God. • His movement is frantic, not purposeful. It’s noise without rhythm. Motion without meaning. • Rest isn’t laziness—it’s obedience. God rested on the seventh day not because He was tired, but to model rhythm, reflection, and reverence. • In Exodus and...

The Pot Holder (33)
Faith Journey | Rev. Kenn Blanchard
Thanks to Mitch for the prayer last week. This year I realized some important lessons that have always been present but I was unable to understand. You may not hear what I am trying to say either but I know you will in time. If you have an ear, please hear. the stuff that happens to us from the cradle to the grave not only shows us the presence of God but that we are connected like a piece of fabric to each other. Our lives are intertwined. Imagine a loom potholder you made in summer camp with those big loops. It was of many colors and the patterns change the...

What Does It Matter? (Ep. 30)
Faith Journey | Rev. Kenn Blanchard
That question echoes straight out of Philippians 1:18, where Paul writes, “But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice.” In context, Paul was imprisoned, and some people were preaching Christ with selfish motives—maybe even to stir up trouble for him. But Paul’s response is striking: what matters most is that the message of Christ is going out, regardless of the messenger’s intent. That’s a powerful lens for life—focusing not on ego, reputation, or control, but on purpose...

Faith Journey | Rev. Kenn Blanchard
Acts 2:15 says And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: The Truth About Dreams and Reality We all dream of doing better, reaching higher, and following what ignites our souls. But what happens when a dream turns out to be more fantasy than foundation? What if, over time, it proves unprofitable, unsustainable, or even harmful to our well-being? This question is especially relevant...
info_outlineIn a world that often spins faster than we can catch up, trusting anyone—let alone someone you can't physically see—can feel like a leap. But for millions, trusting God isn’t blind faith; it's a relationship grounded in experience, wisdom, and love. Whether you're walking through a season of doubt or simply seeking deeper peace, here are five powerful reasons to lean into trust:
1. God’s Faithfulness Stands the Test of Time
"Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations..." — Deuteronomy 7:9
History, Scripture, and personal testimonies echo a consistent truth: God shows up. Not always how we expect—but always with purpose.
2. His Love Doesn’t Flinch
"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." — Romans 5:8
There is comfort in being known completely and still unconditionally loved. God doesn't base His love on performance—it’s already been fully given.
3. There’s Purpose in the Pain
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him..." — Romans 8:28
Pain doesn’t always make sense, but it’s never wasted. Trusting God invites us to believe that even brokenness can be used to build something beautiful.
4. He Leads Even When the Map’s Blurry
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding..." — Proverbs 3:5-6
When decisions loom and uncertainty crowds in, God offers a peace-filled path—not always the easiest, but often the most transforming.
5. Peace Isn’t Conditional
"And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds..." — Philippians 4:7
God doesn’t promise a storm-free life, but He does promise to be our anchor. His peace isn’t based on perfect circumstances—it’s rooted in His presence.
