  • Luke 1:46–55, “The Magnificat”
    Dec 2 2025

    Mary’s song shows that God delights to lift the lowly and confront the self-exalted, and that his mercy is received only with empty hands. She praises God because he has looked on her nothingness, filled the hungry, and scattered the proud—revealing the very shape of the gospel. Our problem is that we choke on this good news, grasping for our own glory instead of receiving it from God. Yet in the incarnation, the Lord of Glory goes down into our lowliness so that he might raise us up. The call is simple: stop striving, stop grasping, come hungry and lowly like Mary, and receive the mercy God loves to give.

  • Psalm 142, “Turn, Name, Trust”
    Nov 24 2025

    Psalm 142 shows us how to pray when life feels like a cave—dark, lonely, and overwhelming. David models biblical lament: turning to God honestly in prayer, naming the real pain we carry, and deliberately choosing to trust God’s character and promises even when our emotions say otherwise. Lament is God’s gift for weary people; it moves us from despair toward confidence that the Lord will deal bountifully with us. As Christ entered the deepest cave on the cross and rose again, we can trust Him with our sorrows, knowing He cares and has the power to redeem every grief.

  • Matthew 5:1–12, "The Values of the Kingdom"
    Nov 11 2025
    The Sermon on the Mount opens with a paradox: the truly “blessed” are not the powerful, the wealthy, or the self-sufficient, but the poor in spirit, the grieving, the meek, and the hungry. In the Beatitudes, Jesus unveils the values of His upside-down kingdom—a kingdom for those who bring nothing and yet inherit everything. The poor in spirit are those who know they contribute nothing to God but receive His all-sufficient grace; the meek are those who surrender control and gain the earth; the hungry are those who long not for comfort or status but for God Himself. In Christ, the King embodies these inverted values—He became poor so we might become rich in Him, mourned so we might be comforted, and was crushed so we could be called blessed. Freed from self-reliance and the tyranny of our resources, we live as citizens of this new kingdom, hungering for righteousness and finding our satisfaction in the King who satisfies every lack.
