TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

And so, dear brothers and sisters who belong to God and are partners with those called to heaven, think carefully about this Jesus whom we declare to be God’s messenger and High Priest. Hebrews 3:1

Good Sunday, June 21st, 2026, to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus.

DAILY PRAYER: 

Father God, we come to You in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Thank you for this new and beautiful day that you gave us today. Lord, we ask that You open our eyes, ears, hearts, and minds to the message You have for us today. Give us ears to hear, and set our hearts a blaze for You! Father God, we thank You for Your care and provision in our lives, and Your Holy Spirit with us! Amen.

TODAY’S MESSAGE:

Hebrews‬ ‭2‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

“and put everything under their feet.” In putting everything under them, God left nothing that is not subject to them. Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them.”

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends,

This highlights Christ's ultimate victory and authority over all creation, including spiritual realms.

Brothers and Sisters,

The subjection of all things to Christ is part of God's redemptive plan, affirming His sovereignty and the fulfillment of His purposes through Jesus.

Church,

There is no aspect of creation, whether physical or spiritual, that is beyond His dominion.

Disciples,

This is a call to faith and hope, trusting in the eventual fulfillment of God's promises despite present circumstances. It resonates through time as all of creation awaits its full redemption.

The Son is the radiance of God’s glory Hebrews‬ ‭1‬:‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Ray Eastman

Good Saturday, June 20th, 2026, to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus.

DAILY PRAYER: 

Father God, thank you for this beautiful new day, a day you made just for us, for just a time as this! Lord,d I ask that you send Your spirit to minister to ours today.  Let us be well nourished in Your word. Lord, guide our hearts and minds in a way that grows our faith to new levels. In Jesus’ mighty name we pray ~amen.

TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

Hebrews‬ ‭1‬:‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬

“The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.”

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends, 

This verse emphasizes the divine nature of Jesus Christ, portraying Him as the visible manifestation of God's glory. The verse declares that Jesus is the precise imprint of God's essence. The Greek term "charaktēr" used here refers to an engraving or stamp, indicating that Jesus embodies God's character and attributes fully.

Brothers and Sisters,

The verse highlights Christ's sustaining power over the universe, as He upholds ALL things by the power of His word. Jesus' role as the maintainer of creation is also affirmed in Colossians 1, where it states that in Him all things are held together. This reflects His divine authority and ongoing involvement in the world.

‭‭Church,

The purification theme is deeply rooted in the Old Testament sacrificial system, particularly in the Day of Atonement rituals (Leviticus 16). Jesus' sacrifice is seen as the fulfillment of these types, providing a once-for-all cleansing (Hebrews 9), as Jesus (God come in the flesh) laid down His own life as a living sacrifice for all of humanity’s sins.

Disciples,

Sitting at the right hand of God symbolizes a position of honor, power, and authority, where Christ is seated after His ascension. His position at God's right hand signifies His completed work (sacrifice and resurrection) and ongoing intercession for us. We can rest in the assurance of His finished work and His continual advocacy.

which in time past was to thee unprofitable ‭‭Philemon‬ ‭1‬:‭11‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 Greg Carpenter

Good Friday, June 19th, 2026 to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus.

DAILY PRAYER: 

Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your incredible grace that transforms lives. Just as You changed Onesimus from someone once considered unprofitable into a useful, beloved brother, I ask that You do the same in my life. Take the parts of my story, my mistakes, or the relationships that feel broken or "useless" to me, and redeem them for Your glory. Lord, shift my perspective so I can see myself and others through Your eyes. Give me a heart that reflects Christ-like love, forgiveness, and grace. Where there has been past hurt or friction, bring reconciliation and healing. Make my hands, my heart, and my life useful to Your kingdom, so that I may be a source of encouragement and blessing to those around me. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

“which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me.”

‭‭Philemon‬ ‭1‬:‭11‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends, 

The Name Pun: 

In the original Greek, Paul uses brilliant wordplay. The name Onesimus literally means "useful" or "profitable." Paul jokes that while Onesimus was previously "useless" (referring to his time as a runaway slave who may have wronged or stolen from his master), his conversion to Christianity made him truly live up to his name.

Brothers and Sisters,

The Transformed Disciple: 

Onesimus fled from his master, Philemon (a wealthy believer in Colossae), and somehow encountered Paul while Paul was imprisoned in Rome. Through Paul's ministry, Onesimus became a Christian disciple and a devoted assistant to Paul.

Church,

The Theological Shift: 

This verse highlights a major theme in Paul's writings: the power of the Gospel to transform broken relationships. Instead of allowing Onesimus to remain a fugitive, Paul sent him back to Philemon—not as a slave to be punished, but as a beloved equal and brother in the faith.

Disciples,

Formerly, he was useless to you, but now he has become useful both to you and to me," highlighting Onesimus' spiritual transformation and newfound value as a faithful brother in Christ.

Good Thursday, June 18th 2026 to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus. 

DAILY PRAYER: 

Father, thank You for Your grace and mercy toward me, a sinner, Amen

TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

he saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit. Titus 3:5

Friends, 

There is nothing we have done, could do, or ever will do that would qualify or disqualify us for salvation.

Brothers and Sisters,

He washed our sins away, and gave us a new life in Himself, by the power of His Holy Spirit, and the only 'condition' is to believe friends, just believe. 

Church,

We were washed clean the moment we were born again, and made a new creation in Jesus, so receive it friends, and start truly living that new life. 

Disciples,

Praise His holy name

 Greg Carpenter

Good Wednesday, June 17th 2026 to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus.

DAILY PRAYER:

Heavenly Father,

Thank You for the blessed hope we have in Jesus Christ. In a world filled with uncertainty, help us to keep our eyes fixed on the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.

May our hope in Christ bring peace to our hearts, joy to our souls, and purpose to our lives. Let us live in a way that honors You and points others to the salvation found in Jesus alone.

We eagerly await Your glorious return and give You all praise, honor, and glory.

In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray.

Amen.

TODAY’S MESSAGE:

Titus 2:13 (KJV)

“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;”

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends,

May this verse encourage you and the members of Disciples “Doing Life” With Jesus to live each day with anticipation, faith, and hope as we look forward to the return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Brothers and Sisters,

May we live each day as faithful disciples, loving one another, sharing the Gospel, and encouraging each other as we await His glorious return.

Church,

Stay strong in the faith, remain steadfast in prayer, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus—the Author and Finisher of our faith.

a slave of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. Titus 1:1

Pastor Greg Black

Good Tuesday, June 16th, 2026, to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus. 

DAILY PRAYER: 

Thank You, Father, that we have been equipped with truth, Amen

TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

This letter is from Paul, a slave of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. I have been sent to proclaim faith to those God has chosen and to teach them to know the truth that shows them how to live godly lives. Titus 1:1

Friends, 

Paul preached Jesus crucified, Jesus risen, Jesus ascended, and Jesus glorified, as his mission was to bring the lost to faith and the saved to spiritual maturity.

Brothers and Sisters,

Paul did this by teaching the truth, not a watered-down version, just the truth, friends…….

Church,

He was commissioned to preach the truth, to teach us the way of godliness, instruct us in godly living, and I’m so grateful Paul spent the second part of his life doing so. 

Disciples,

Friends, we need to read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest all we can from Paul within this very short Book of Titus.

As for me, my life has already been poured out as an offering to God 2 Timothy 4:6

 Pastor Greg Black

Good Monday, June 15th, 2026, to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus.

DAILY PRAYER: 

I pray that I may be sober in all things, Amen

TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

As for me, my life has already been poured out as an offering to God. The time of my death is near. 2 Timothy 4:6

Friends, 

Paul may have been thrown into jail by Rome, but in God's eyes, it was the faith of those to whom Paul ministered that had become a beautiful sacrifice to the Lord. 

Brothers and Sisters,

Both in his letter to Philippi and in this final letter to Timothy, Paul was content, even joyful, to know that his life was being 'poured out' in martyrdom and death for the sake of the gospel. 

Church,

“David would not drink thereof but poured it out as an offering of praise unto Jehovah."

Disciples,

We all live in a fallen world friends, and every one of us will suffer trials, but if in His power and grace, we remain sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of Pastors, fulfil our ministries courageously, and become a living sacrifice unto the Lord, we too will be able to rejoice in the Lord always, and articulate the joy that is ours in serving our great God and Saviour.

Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses 2 Timothy‬ ‭3‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV

Pastor Ray Eastman

Good Sunday, June 14th, 2026, to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus.

DAILY PRAYER:

Father God, we come to You in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Thank you for this new and beautiful day that you gave us today. Lord, we ask that You open our eyes, ears, hearts, and minds to the message You have for us today. Give us ears to hear, and set our hearts a blaze for You! Father God, we thank You for Your care and provision in our lives, and Your Holy Spirit with us! Amen.

TODAY’S MESSAGE:

“Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected.” 2 Timothy‬ ‭3‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends,

Jannes and Jambres are traditionally understood to be the magicians in Pharaoh's court who opposed Moses by replicating some of the miracles he performed. This reference highlights the spiritual battle between God's truth and the deception of false teachings.

Brothers and Sisters,

The "men" referred to are false teachers infiltrating the Christian community, spreading doctrines contrary to the gospel. This opposition to the truth is a recurring theme in the church throughout time.

Church,

The phrase "depraved in mind" suggests a corruption of moral and spiritual understanding. This depravity indicates a willful turning away from God's truth, resulting in a distorted perception of reality and morality.

Disciples,

Being "disqualified from the faith" implies a failure to meet the standards of genuine Christian belief and practice. We see that these false teachers have been tested and found lacking in their adherence to the true gospel. This disqualification is not merely a loss of status but a spiritual condition that separates them from the community of believers and the salvation offered through Christ.

TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

“And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful.” 2 Timothy‬ ‭2‬:‭24‬

‭

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends, 

This verse identifies the subject as those dedicated to serving God, understood as being a minister or leader within the Christian community. It emphasizes humility and submission to God's will.

Brothers and Sisters,

Quarreling is often associated with pride and selfish ambition, things we are instructed to avoid.

‭‭Church,

Rather, seek to bring kindness. Kindness is a fruit of the Spirit and a hallmark of Christian character. This is a call for universal kindness, reflecting God's love for all people

Disciples,

Teaching is a critical function of church leaders. This ability involves not only knowledge of Scripture but also the skill to communicate it effectively. Forbearance, or patience, is essential in dealing with opposition and misunderstandings.

 Greg Carpenter

Good  Friday, June 12th 2026 to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus.

DAILY PRAYER: 

"Heavenly Father, thank You for Your amazing grace. It is difficult to fully comprehend that You loved me and granted me Your grace in Christ Jesus before the world even began. I praise You for saving me and calling me to a holy life—not by my own merit or works, but entirely by Your purpose. Lord, help me to walk in the light of Your salvation today. Give me the strength and wisdom to live out this holy calling, showing Your love, compassion, and kindness to those around me. May my life, words, and actions be an outward testimony of Your grace working within me. In Jesus' name, Amen."

TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

“who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,”

‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends, 

2 Timothy 1:9. This verse speaks about the grace and purpose given to us, not because of our own works, but by God's calling.

In the context of friendship, it reminds me how our relationships are also a part of this greater purpose and grace. True friends are a blessing, supporting us through challenges without expectation. They reflect the kindness and calling that 2 Timothy highlights.

I appreciate our friendship deeply and wanted to express my gratitude for having you in my life. May we continue to encourage one another with grace and strength.

Brothers and Sisters,

2 Timothy 1:9, which speaks to the grace and calling we have received. This verse reminds us that we have been saved and called not because of our own works, but according to God's purpose and grace.

May we continue to live with the assurance and confidence that comes from this truth, encouraging one another in faith and love.

Blessings to you all,

Church,

a powerful truth from 2 Timothy 1:9: "He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. "This verse reminds us that our lives are not random; we are chosen with a divine purpose. Even in times of doubt or difficulty, God’s grace calls us to live with courage and faith. We are empowered to overcome challenges, not through our own strength, but through the calling and grace given to us. Let this be an encouragement to you today. Embrace your unique purpose with confidence, knowing that you are part of something greater. Together, let us walk boldly in the light of this calling, uplifting one another and embodying the love and grace that surrounds us. With faith and hope, 

Disciples,

He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace.” This verse speaks directly to our hearts, urging us to live boldly and faithfully. We are not here by accident or chance. We have been chosen and called to a meaningful purpose, empowered not by our own strength but by His grace. Let this assurance ignite a fire within you to pursue your calling with courage and confidence, knowing that your life is part of a greater plan. Even when challenges arise, remember that you are equipped and appointed for this journey. Stand tall, embrace your calling, and let nothing deter you from living a life of holy dedication and passion. Keep the faith and move forward boldly. With encouragement,

‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭5‬:‭5 Now she that is a widow

Greg Carpenter

Good Wednesday, June 10th, 2026, to you who love Jesus and those we might lead to Jesus.

DAILY PRAYER: 

Heavenly Father, when I feel isolated or overwhelmed by life's circumstances, help me to fix my hope completely on You. Like the faithful described in 1 Timothy 5, I choose to place my trust in Your unfailing love rather than in my own strength.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

In reflecting on this, I am reminded of the significance of nurturing our connections with friends, offering kindness and understanding in times of need. May we all strive to embody these principles in our daily interactions.

Brothers and Sisters,

1 Timothy 5:5, which speaks deeply about the role of brothers and sisters in our lives.

This verse highlights the importance of caring for those who are truly in need, reminding us to extend love and support within our community. It calls us to recognize the value of family—not just by blood, but by the bonds we forge in faith and kindness.

As we navigate the challenges and blessings of life, may we be encouraged to embrace the spirit of compassion exemplified in this passage, nurturing relationships that uplift and sustain us all.

Thank you for taking the time to read this reflection. I look forward to hearing your thoughts whenever you have the chance to share them.

Church,

1 Timothy 5:5, which speaks to the church's responsibility in caring for widows who are truly in need. This verse highlights the importance of community support and compassion within the church body.

Brothers and Sisters,

1 Timothy 3:16 And by common confession, great is the mystery of godliness

Father, today we ask that you be with us in all that we do. Help us live a life that brings honor and glory to You. We are called to make disciples; let us not fail in our mission. Help us in fulfilling what You have called us to do. 

TODAY’S MESSAGE:

 “ And by common confession, great is the mystery of godliness: He who was manifested in the flesh, was vindicated in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Proclaimed among the nations, Believed on in the world, Taken up in glory. 1 Timothy 3:16

Friends:

Our confession about Christ is not a lie but the truth. We can hold true to His Word, knowing that it holds the truth of life or death. Our Savior is alive; therefore, we who are in Him are alive. 

Brothers and Sisters:

 Every knee will bow, and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord. Jesus has been vindicated in the Spirit, the same Spirit that lives in us and is our seal of God. 

Church:

He will not ever leave us or forsake us. Instead, He is sitting at the right hand of the Father interceding on our behalf. He has washed us and cleansed us by His blood. 

Disciples:

 There is a mystery that we all used to play about who committed the murder. Was it the butler, or the maid, MRS. Peacock, or whoever? What is not a mystery is our Lord, Jesus Christ. Let us not grow weary in sharing the Good News.

TODAY’S MESSAGE:

“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;” 1 Timothy‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends,

The apostle Paul emphasizes the importance of prayer as a foundational practice. This priority reflects the belief that communication with God is essential for spiritual growth and guidance. Paul’s urging isn’t just a suggestion; it’s a call to action, emphasizing the importance of obedience to this instruction.

Brothers and Sisters,

Petitions refer to specific requests made to God, often for personal needs or the needs of others. The term "prayers" is more general and encompasses all forms of communication with God. It includes adoration, confession, and supplication.

Church,

Intercessions involve praying on behalf of others, standing in the gap for their needs and concerns. Intercessory prayer is a demonstration of love and concern for others. We are instructed to give thanks in all circumstances. Thanksgiving acknowledges God's sovereignty and goodness; it's an expression of gratitude to God for His blessings and faithfulness.

Disciples,

The instruction to pray for "everyone" challenges us as believers to expand our prayer focus beyond our own personal needs, to include all people, reflecting God's love and concern for the world. This call to pray for everyone includes leaders and authorities, as further elaborated in the following verses, emphasizing the church's role in seeking the well-being of society as a whole.

TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

“Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;” 1 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends, 

Paul identifies himself as an apostle, a term meaning "one who is sent." This title affirms his authority and mission, which were directly given by Christ. Paul's apostleship is unique as he was not one of the original twelve disciples but was called by Jesus on the road to Damascus.

Brothers and Sisters,

Paul emphasizes that his apostleship is not self-appointed but is by the command of God. This highlights the divine authority and initiative behind his mission.

‭‭Church,

Christ Jesus, is described as "our hope," pointing to the promise of eternal life and the fulfillment of God's redemptive plan. This hope is not wishful thinking but a confident expectation based on the resurrection of Jesus, it’s our assurance of salvation and future glory.

Disciples,

Understanding our own calling and purpose, as Paul did, is crucial for living a life that honors God. As believers we are encouraged to seek and fulfill our purpose, that road that God prepared for us. The relationship between Paul and Timothy highlights the importance of mentorship in our journey of faith. Mature believers should invest in the spiritual growth of others, disciplining them as they grow and mature in their faith.

Pastor’s INSIGHT:

Friends, 

This verse is a profound reminder of the steadfast faithfulness of the Lord. It assures us that no matter the trials or obstacles we face, God remains unwavering in His commitment to support and protect us. The phrase “shall stablish you” speaks to the Lord’s promise to establish, strengthen, and secure us firmly amidst uncertainty and adversity. Moreover, “keep you from evil” emphasizes His role as a guardian, shielding us from harm and guiding us along the path of righteousness.

Brothers and Sisters,

In our personal and professional lives, where unpredictability is often the norm, such assurance can be a source of immense comfort. It encourages us to stay grounded in faith, trusting that we are never alone and that divine protection surrounds us constantly.

Church,

I encourage you to reflect on this scripture and consider how its message can inspire confidence and peace in your daily journey. May it remind you that through faith, we are endowed with strength and safeguarded against negativity.

Disciples,

This verse is a powerful reminder that, no matter the challenges we face, the Lord remains faithful and will provide us with stability and protection. It encourages us to trust in His steadfastness as we continue on our spiritual journey.

DAILY PRAYER: 

Father, open our understanding as we watch for the any-day return of Jesus, Amen

TODAY’S MESSAGE: 

Now, dear brothers and sisters, let us clarify some things about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and how we will be gathered to meet him. 2 Thessalonians 2:1

Friends, 

Today’s study may seem long worded, but friends we need to put our eyes to every word. Paul takes 12 verses to show step by step, the end-times events, which starts with being gathered to Jesus, and then carries on into the future for 1000 years, after which God creates a new heaven and a new earth.

Brothers and Sisters,

Paul explained that God's wrath was not being poured out on them, even though they and us today go through much persecution, because the man of sin has not yet arrived on the scene.

Church,

Once the Rapture takes place, the restraining work of God through the prayers of the saints will cease, allowing the Antichrist to finally rise to power and usher in world domination, so NOW is the time to get right with God friends, let’s not wait another minute……!

Disciples,

We have so much to rejoice for friends, as I personally look forward to the coming of Jesus, and our gathering together to Him. But until that day when He returns, let us pray without ceasing that God's will be done in us, and on earth, Amen
