Thanksgiving is NOT for Turkeys (s1e10) – More Than a ‘Friend’: The Blessing of Loving Loyalty
We use the word “friend” loosely, but what does it truly mean?

In this final countdown to Thanksgiving, we explore the sacred gift of friendship. If you have been blessed with even one such person, you have a priceless treasure to be thankful for.

Thanksgiving is NOT for Turkeys (s1e6) – God’s “A Plan” for Your Life (And Why You Need It)
Did you know God has an “A-Plan” for community, and you’re invited to be a part of it? Jesus didn’t just leave us with teachings; He established the local church as the primary place where His followers would love, support, and grow with one another. This isn’t a backup plan. It’s God’s design for you to find fellowship, use your gifts, and experience the love of Christ in a tangible way. This Thanksgiving, thank God for His A-Plan.
