Are we Clothed in the Spirit? (April 28, 2025)

Excitement will only get us so far. To fulfill the mission of this life, we need more.

When Jesus Meets Us in the Dark (April 27, 2025)

Most of us would rather keep our doubts quiet than be caught not having it all figured out—especially around people who assume we do. Nicodemus, one of the most respected religious teachers of his day, came to Jesus under cover of night with exactly that tension, and in John 3 Jesus meets him there, in the dark, unfinished.

We All Are Oedipus (April 14, 2025)

We all want to avoid destruction and tragedy. And given our own inclinations, we all move away from the very source of escape from those things.

This Week at Little Hills (April 26, 2025)

Pastor Tim reflects on the continuing impact of Easter and our opportunity to think more deeply about that.

Are We Living as Sin Chasers (April 7, 2025)

As we wrap up our exploration of Psalm 9, we’re confronted with a question: are we living in the path of the sin storm or turning the shelter of God?

Are We Importing Sin or Salvation (March 31, 2025)

We continue to explore Psalm 9 by returning to what God values. Are we keeping our focus and our actions on Him or veering off course?

This Week at Little Hills (March 30, 2025)

Why is Pastor Tim wearing a fall shirt on a spring day? Context is important in all sorts of parts of life — and very, very important when trying to understand who God is.

Does God Put Us Down in the Ditch? (March 24, 2025)

When we read about God’s judgment, we can wonder if God is the one putting us into bad places and how it could possibly be that someone who is loving would do that. Scripture helps us see things are actually a “tad” different than that.

Deserve or Serve? (March 23, 2025)

After Jericho's walls fall without a fight, Israel feels certain the next battle will be routine—so certain they never bother to ask God first. Joshua 7 exposes a harder truth: what happens when success convinces us we've earned God's blessing. One man's hidden sin and a leader's unexamined confidence unravel an entire people, revealing the dangerous gap between assumed standing and actual standing before God.
