Latest From The Journey

Many of us were taught to pray whatever comes to mind, but Jesus gave his followers something more grounded and formative. This teaching explores how to pray the Lord’s Prayer as a daily rhythm that reshapes how we see God, ourselves, and the world.

This week’s teaching explored freedom through surrender to God and the surprising way Jesus turns our assumptions upside down. In a world that tells us to hold on tighter, prove ourselves, and stay in control, Jesus offers another way: letting go, trusting him, and discovering a deeper kind of hope.

This week’s teaching was about abiding in Jesus and what it means to make our home in the love of God. In a world where many people feel anxious, disconnected, or alone, this message reminded us that Jesus does not leave us on our own and invites us into a steady, ongoing relationship marked by peace, belonging, and love.

This week’s teaching explored how to find self-control when our appetites start to run our lives—whether it’s substances, food, sex, shopping, screens, or the need to be right. We were invited to rediscover fasting as an ancient, practical, Jesus-shaped way to strengthen our ability to say no to destructive cravings and yes to God’s life-giving freedom.

This week we began our “Spiritually Formed” series with Jesus’ repeated question: “Do you believe?” The teaching reminded us that belief isn’t primarily about rules, perfection, or total certainty—it’s about trusting the character of God, even when we feel like we’re “floating in the air” with real doubts.

This week at The Journey, we explored why gratitude isn’t just a nice attitude—it’s a spiritual practice that reshapes our hearts and helps us live with balance. We looked at how God’s love and God’s discipline work together, and how learning gratitude can move us away from entitlement and resentment and toward forgiveness and freedom.
