The holiday season often comes with an unspoken pressure to perform—hosting picture-perfect gatherings, buying extravagant gifts, or trying to be someone we're not. This stress can leave us overwhelmed, burdened by the very season meant to bring us joy.
Life will always pull you in multiple directions. Work, relationships, personal goals—it all adds up. Staying steady and stable is easier said than done. And it’s the same with your faith…it’s easy to lose sight of what’s real.
In today’s culture, it’s common to hear phrases like "my truth" or "your truth." But as Christians, we stand on something far greater than personal perspectives. The Bible calls the Church the pillar and buttress of truth.
We live in a world that feels increasingly divided and disconnected, yet God’s invitation to come together never changes. His desire is for His house to be full—full of His presence, His power, and His people. When you gather together with a community of believers, you’re able to tap into something far greater than yourself.
There is a real tension we all navigate in choosing between our learned values and what we believe God cares about most. What God cares about is holy, and living His way means choosing to live a life on “holy” ground, not “hollow” ground. The policies of today, matter.
