					<description><![CDATA[What happens when the things we do for God begin to define who we are?

Samantha shares how God led her from searching for His love to discovering what it truly means to be known and loved by Him.

Along the way, she learned that her worth was never found in how much she accomplished, how well she served, or how hard she tried. God was inviting her to stop striving and find her identity simply in being His beloved.

<b>Before we can make Him known, we need to understand what it means to be known by Him.</b>

<b>Key Scriptures:</b> Psalm 107:1–16 • Galatians 5:6 • Philippians 4:12–13 • 2 Corinthians 12:9–10 • Isaiah 61:7 • John 15:1–4]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[How do we recognize when we've drifted from trusting God to relying on ourselves?

In the messy middle of life, gratitude can quietly turn into expectation, entitlement, and pride. But God doesn't abandon us when we lose our way. He is merciful, gracious, patient, and steadfast in His love, continually inviting us back into relationship with Him.

The challenge is to recognize the patterns in our own hearts, respond to God's correction, and choose humility and repentance over self-reliance.

<b>God doesn't leave us in our mess. The question is, how will we respond when He calls us back?</b>

<b>Key Scriptures:</b> Exodus 3:14 • Exodus 34:5–7 • 1 Samuel 10:6–10 • 2 Samuel 11–12]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<strong>Life is messy. We get hurt and sometimes lose our way, we often hold onto things we shouldn't. Our identity isn't found in our work or accomplishments but God continually invites us to let Him define who we are. </strong>

God meets us right there in the messy middle when we call out to Him. But along the way, we need to pay attention to what can happen in our hearts, especially after we've experienced His goodness.
What we once received with gratitude can quietly become something we expect. Jeff challenges us to watch our hearts and invite the Holy Spirit to uncover the resentment, or bitterness we may be holding onto.

God is always reaching toward us, inviting us back into relationship, restoration, and alignment with Him.
<strong>We may be in the messy middle, but God isn't finished with us yet.</strong>

<strong>Key Scriptures:</strong> 2 Chronicles 14–16 • 2 Chronicles 16:9]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<strong>What if living the gospel is simpler than we've made it?</strong>

Through stories from Hope Ministries in Brazil, Jen and Phil share what they've learned from years of simply showing up, building relationships, and loving people right where they are. Sometimes transformation begins with something as small as a conversation, a shared meal, a hug, or simply letting someone know they are seen.

We don't have to understand everything or accomplish something enormous. Stay close enough to God to recognize His voice, pay attention to the person in front of you, and be willing to respond.

One small act, offered with great love, can make a world of difference.

<strong>Key Scriptures:</strong>
1 Corinthians 13:12–13 • John 10:27 • John 1:5

<strong>The Uncomplicated Gospel:</strong>
<strong>Love God. Love others. Teach others to do the same.</strong>]]></description>

Christine invites us to become deeply rooted in God's presence, learning to speak the language of heaven and remembering who we are in Christ.

					<description><![CDATA[Last week we were reminded that we are deeply loved by the Father. This week, Glen asks an honest question: <em>What would change if we actually lived as though we believed it?</em>

So often we slip into performance, believing we have to earn God's approval through what we do. But the gospel tells a different story. Because of Christ, we already belong. We no longer serve God from obligation, but from love. What once felt like <em>"I have to"</em> becomes <em>"I get to."</em>

As we receive the Father's love more deeply, our lives begin to change, not because we're trying harder, but because His grace is transforming us from the inside out.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Resurrection life invites us into a different way of seeing. Through the living hope of 1 Peter and the challenge of Matthew 25, we are reminded that the kingdom of God is not something distant we wait for, but an inheritance we are called to live from today.

Jesus meets us in the hungry, the thirsty, the lonely, and the overlooked. The places the world avoids are often the very places where the treasures of the kingdom are hidden. As we learn to listen well, love generously, and hold every person as sacred, resurrection life begins to overflow through ordinary acts of grace.

We are invited into the Kingdom, to inherit it and reveal it.

<strong>Camp in This Week:</strong>

 	<li>1 Peter 1</li>
 	<li>Matthew 25:31–46</li>
</ul>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Psalm 23 reminds us that resurrection life begins with knowing the Shepherd. He is the One who leads, restores, guides, protects, prepares, anoints, and shelters. Even when we walk through valleys, we are not abandoned. We are accompanied.

Too often we live from a place of lack, fear, striving, or uncertainty. But the invitation of resurrection life is to rest in the truth that He is with us. As we learn to trust His gentle leading, we discover that we lack nothing, we are not alone, and His goodness and kindness continue to pursue us.]]></description>
