  • When You’ve Hurt the People You Love
    Mar 2 2026
    Have you ever felt like you’ve rebelled too much to be loved by God?

    Jesus once told a story about a son who felt that very same way.

    He demanded his inheritance early, left home, wasted it all, it says, on wild living. When he ran out of money, food, and his friends deserted him, he decided to go back to his father and beg him to let him return—not as a son, but as a servant. And he expected rejection. But while he was still far away, his father saw him in the distance and ran to him to embrace him. And he declared a celebration, saying, “...this son of mine was dead, but now he has returned to life!”

    God loves you just like that. You can come to Him no matter how far away you feel.

    Have you been avoiding God, overwhelmed by shame? Today, He invites you to come and be embraced.

  • Do I even matter?
    Feb 27 2026
    Listen to this story of a young boy in the Bible–God’s holy book.

    One day, he was in a crowd of thousands of people who had gathered to hear Jesus teach. When they got hungry, the boy offered everything he had—it was just five loaves of bread and two small fish. He probably thought, This is not enough.

    But Jesus took that gift, and He shared it. And the miracle was this… everyone had what they needed, and there was more than enough.

    God still works in this way. He takes what seems too little and uses it to bring abundant hope and abundant life.

    Know this: God calls you worthy! Your willingness to give, to trust, and to follow Him in little ways can become the very thing that God uses to bless others in massive ways.

    Do you want God to use your “yes” today?

  • Pulling at the Heart
    Feb 26 2026
    Have you ever felt drawn toward something you couldn’t explain—an idea or a presence that pulls at your heart?

    I met two friends who felt exactly that. They were traveling together, unsure of what they were searching for. But curiosity led them to an event where my husband, Andrew, was sharing about Jesus.

    They felt something gentle and powerful drawing them in. By the end of the evening, they were standing with their hands lifted, encountering a love they had never known before. One chose to follow Jesus for the very first time, and the other returned to His care.

    Wherever you are in life, no matter how uncertain your heart feels, this same hope is available to you. You can invite Jesus into your life today and experience His hope and peace for yourself.

    Always remember, there is hope with God. This is Wendy Palau.

  • The Feeling of Failure
    Feb 25 2026
    Have you ever made a promise—and then failed so badly you wondered if anyone would ever trust you again?

    Peter, one of Jesus’ closest friends, knew that feeling very well.

    He has walked beside Jesus, witnessed miracles…but on the night that Jesus was arrested, fear overtook him. Three times he denied even knowing the One that he loved the most. Confronted by this great failure, Peter ran, ashamed and broken.

    Days later, Jesus rose from the dead, and Peter met Him on a quiet beach. There was no anger from Jesus, no scolding—just a fire as Jesus cooked him breakfast and asked him three times: “Do you love Me?” And each time Peter said “yes”. Jesus offered a restoration for every one of his denials.

    And if you need that forgiveness and restoration today, ask Him for it.

    Always remember, there is hope with God.

  • Emptied Out
    Feb 24 2026
    I met a man in Zimbabwe who had spent nearly a decade living on the streets, battling addiction and losing nearly everything.

    Eventually, he found his way to sobriety—but something still felt missing.

    One evening, during a festival gathering where people came seeking hope, something so special happened to him. This man listened as Andrew shared the Good News of Jesus—that God offers hope and new life.

    Tears streamed down his face as he whispered, “God finished the job tonight.”

    Hope. Healing. Purpose.

    It all became real.

    Hope and new beginnings are possible. Jesus is ready to meet you, even in the places you feel most broken. Ask Him to restore you today.

    Always remember, there is hope with God.

    "But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness." 1 John 1:9

  • Emptiness…Filled
    Feb 23 2026
    There was a time in my life when I tried to fill my emptiness with all the wrong things, but nothing truly satisfied.

    One day, Jesus met a woman at a well who I imagine felt that same way. She came to the well in the heat of the day, trying to avoid the judging eyes of all those around her that knew too much about her history, anyway. But that day, something unexpected happened.

    Jesus came and asked her for a drink. And then He said, “Whoever drinks the water I give will never be thirsty again.”

    He wasn’t talking about water from the well, but the true life that comes from knowing God.

    That day, her shame turned to joy. The things of this world will always leave you thirsty. But Jesus is offering you living water—real peace, purpose, identity, and the love that lasts forever.

    Do you want it?

  • Call Out to God
    Feb 20 2026
    The Bible tells a story of a man named Bartimaeus.

    He had been blind since birth. He would sit by the roadside, listening to the footsteps of people passing by, living their lives, seeing. Then one day, he heard that Jesus was coming.

    And he shouted out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” And Jesus stopped. He called for Bartimaeus and asked, “What do you want Me to do for you?”

    “Lord,” he said, “I want to see.”

    Jesus healed him on the spot. Light flooded into his eyes—and into his heart.

    Sometimes we may feel so trapped in our own darkness—we wonder if change is even possible. But Jesus still opens eyes—physical eyes, spiritual eyes. He can bring light into the places that you’ve given up on.

  • Known and Loved
    Feb 19 2026
    Have you ever longed to be known—just as you are—and still loved?

    My husband recently met a young man who he believed felt that same ache. And one evening in England, he wandered into a church. He heard something he had never heard before—that faith in Jesus isn’t about rules, but about a relationship with a living God who loves us.

    That night, he prayed and began a relationship with God. Today, he’s part of a new family—the family of God—discovering the joy of a community filled with love and truth.

    Maybe you’ve wondered, Could God really welcome me? He can—and He already does. Do you want to start—not a religion, but a relationship—with the living God? The one who knows you and loves you?

    Always remember, there is hope with God.
