Why You Can't See your Own Blind Spots | Even When You're Looking (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ever had spinach in your teeth for hours and nobody said anything? That's what a blind spot feels like — and it's not just about your teeth. There are things about your character, your reactions, and your relationships that you genuinely cannot see, no matter how hard you look, simply because of where you're sitting. In this message, Ruth closes out our 4-week Mirror, Mirror series by turning from the private practices we've explored (journaling, silence, fasting) to the one thing none of them c
I've Fasted Every Monday for 7 Years — Here's Why It's Not About Willpower (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most of us reach for food, our phones, or noise the second we feel stressed or bored — and our culture has built an entire economy around making sure "empty" never lasts. This message unpacks biblical fasting through the example of Jesus in the wilderness (Matthew 4:1–2) and the true-vs-false fast of Isaiah 58, where Israel fasted religiously while asking God, "Why have we fasted, and you have not seen?"

Constantly asking yourself, "Why do I feel spiritually drained," even when you're showing up and doing all the right things? Most of us try to explain away spiritual exhaustion, sudden irritability, creeping cynicism, or emotional flatness as "just a busy season". We double down on behaviour management, try to fix external symptoms, or use phone scrolling to numb the pressure. But in Week 1 of our 4-week series Mirror, Mirror, Ps Kev reveals that feeling spiritually drained isn't a performance r
Why Your Mind Can't Rest at Night | And How to Fix It (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have you ever laid in bed late at night scrolling your phone, trying to figure out why your mind can't rest? We live in the most comfortable, well-resourced era in human history, yet so many of us wake up anxious, exhausted, and discontent. In this standalone message First Things First, we explore why your racing thoughts aren't a faith failure, but a sign that your mind lacks a fixed place to land. Diving into Isaiah 26:3–4 and the original creation rhythm of Genesis 1, we unpack what it actual
