Good morning my friends I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

I've been praying for each of you, I'm so thankful for you!


Today we're going to pause. Again. :)


I'm unsure about whether or not you've had opportunity to dig, and so we'll pause for one more day. But that's all. :) Because I'm busting to tell you what I've learned. :)

If you'd rather not jump into the discussion... [THAT'S OK!!! OK?!?] :) I know we have some who really like some diggin' in this session...... and so we pause!


Please re-read Matthew 16:13-20 and the discussion guide from Friday. Feel free to add your thoughts... or not. And tomorrow we'll plow forward.


Regardless of whether or not you're discussing today... please remember to be resolved to know what you know. Live what you know. Share what you know. We have the privilege and opportunity to move forward one step at a time every day. So don't miss a step! Think through what you know. And be willing to live it... and to share it. Be Resolved.

[It's a reasonable way to worship a Savior.]

Good morning and happy Friday to you!!! I hope your day is looking good so far!!! Again, have you spent time with the Lord in prayer? Are you ready to follow? Let's go!

This weekend I have a little project for us to think about and dig through. On Monday we're going to finish out this encounter between Jesus and his disciples, as Peter proclaims his faith that Jesus is God. Twice now how ever, Jesus has stated that while our fisherman is now Simon... he would one day be called “Peter” a...

Isn't it amazing to be able to speak to the Creator of the world?!?

Isn't it incredible to be allowed to follow His steps?!?

Isn't it an unfathomable privilege to be allowed to hear His voice, to be the recipient of His questions, and to be the object of His affection?

What an incredible Savior. What a wonderful God! Praise the Lord!

We're following Him. We're knowing Him more. We'll continue to see Him more and pray that others will be exposed to His undeniable reality and love through ...

Are you ready to go again? I hope that you are having a wonderful day so far. I hope and pray that you're moving forward everyday and following your Savior!

Today we're going to head back into Matthew 16:13-20. Will you take a moment to read it through again?


We're evaluating this week. It's so good to stop and focus on just what the information we have gleaned really means to us, isn't it. Yesterday we asked ourselves the same question that Jesus asked the disciples. “Who do people sa...

Good morning my friends!!! It's a new day and His mercies are new every day! Praise the Lord! Have you taken some time out on your knees this morning?!? Please do, there's no better way, or more essential part to starting off your week than by making every effort to allow Jesus to lead you in every step!

Today we are going to give into an encounter between Jesus and Simon that I've looked forward to exploring with you long before this study began. We'll be looking at Simon's confession of Chri...

Good morning to you! I hope you're doing well today! I hope that you're experiencing the joy of knowing Christ and of being His witness as we seek Him and follow Him together!


Are you following Him today? Have you spent time in prayer asking Him to lead? Please do.

Today we're going to continue forward. Please read through Matthew 15:29-29. This story sounds familiar, doesn't it? Same type of location (v.29), same crowds and needs looking for miracles (v.30-31), same problem of lack of fo...

Good morning beautiful friends of mine!!! You are such an encouragement and blessing to me... The Lord has continued to amaze me at the gift of people like you to study with!!!

Yesterday we had a great and challenging conversation about sharing the Lord. Is it just me, or was it mind-blowing to watch Peter walk across the water and realize that Jesus literally said Come.” Peter followed. And then other men knelt before Jesus calling Him God?!?! That was so exciting to me! And it's real...

Good morning! How's your path lookin? I hope it's looking more and level to you every day. Actually, I take that back. I hope you're seeing the path less and less every day and fixing your eyes on the Savior that you follow! He's just so wonderful!


Let's keep digging into this awesome account of Simon walking on the water with Jesus! The two friends have walked on the water, Simon followed the Lord of circumstance and the circumstance was conquered. Then Simon looked at his circumstance, a...

A question for you today.


Is it true that sometimes when we set our resolve on following the Lord, we are taking a risk of something terrible happening to that which is most dear to us?


Maybe. Maybe not. These are things beyond our comprehension. But Simon sure did.


He choose to take a leap of faith, to defy circumstances and walk toward his Savior.

And it almost cost him is life.


Or did it?


Jesus had been watching His disciples in their boat where they wrestled against a sto...
