Too Grown for God -Returning to Childlike Faith

When the disciples asked Jesus, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” they might have expected an answer like: “The most righteous,” “The one who reads Scripture the most,” or “The one who gives up everything to follow me.” It could have been the perfect moment to emphasize strict religious effort. Instead, Jesus said, “…unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 18:3–4). Think of a small child, maybe a toddler. Healthy little ones…

God Answered Before You Called!

You can hear some of the greatest testimonies of what God has done while sitting in a beauty salon or barber’s chair. Hair professionals are often unseen evangelists and counselors. One stylist, Yolanda P. of New Jersey, had a client who worked in a department store. While at work, the client received a frantic call from her daughter, a college student over 1,000 miles away. The college had miscalculated the student’s expenses and demanded $5,000 immediately or she would have to leave. It was the college’s mistake, but they still refused a payment plan. The family simply didn’t have the…

Priscilla Shirer shares an inspiring message from Luke 2:25 about recognizing the Holy Spirit in our lives, reminding us that when we become too busy with religious activity, we can miss the still, small voice of the Spirit as He gently speaks to us.

The Fresh Fire team reached deep into our treasure chest to find this gold nugget of wisdom and inspiration for you. Though recorded a while ago, this message is still relevant today--perhaps especially today. Chap. Barbara Bailey reminds us to keep trusting God!

Sometimes we show up to celebrate Jesus’ birth carrying way too much—stress, expectations, distractions, even our own agendas. This short reminder invites you to set all that “luggage” down at the door and enter the wonder of Christmas with a lighter heart, open hands, and a clear focus on the One we’re truly celebrating.

“What Does Your Community Look Like”

Text: Chaplain Barbara Bailey gives us insight on how we determine our "community," and how we shape it and live in it as a follower of Jesus Christ. Enjoy the wisdom.

Rorisang Thandekiso of South Africa says, “We’re living in times where many have a form of godliness but deny its power—just as 2 Timothy 3:5 warns us. In this video, we break down what it means to appear religious on the outside but lack true spiritual power and transformation. Are we just going through the motions of faith, or are we truly walking in the power of God? This is a wake-up call to examine our hearts, deepen our relationship with Christ, and live in the fullness of His power. Don't settle for empty religion—God is calling us to something deeper!”

Beautiful and broken may not seem like two words that should be used together. With God, that combination of words is beautiful.

Imagine living a life where the ups and downs don't dictate your happiness. How can we achieve this? By discovering the essence of finding joy and purpose in every step of our journey, rather than just focusing on the destination. God used Paul to demonstrate this path for us, offering timeless wisdom that can transform our life and joy.

“Have you ever felt a sudden shift in your emotions and wondered why? Sometimes frustration, sadness, or confusion shows up without warning. Most people sit in those feelings and move on. But what if those moments are actually trying to tell you something?”
