In a world that often defines freedom as doing whatever we want, true abundance comes not from blending into the status quo, but from living set apart with Jesus. đâ¨
The âsecular worldâ pushes us to create our own moral code, chase comparison, and hide our brokenness behind curated perfection. But 1 Thessalonians 4:7-8 reminds us: God calls us not to impurity, but to live a holy life.
Being a Christian means ditching horizontal living and anchoring ourselves verticallyâin truth, grace, and relationship with the Lord. He gives us boundaries not to restrict us, but to bring us to life. đŤ
You are not alone. Even as a âfriend of the world,â the Lord finds, restores, and brings you home. đ
đ Parable of the Lost Sheepâthereâs deep community in being found.

Growing up in the church, I always had an understanding of Jesus, but viewed going to church as a chore. When I got to college and no longer had my parents making me go, I knew I had to make the choice for myself. Throughout my three years of college, I can say that I have learned to love church and value it every week. I found a church home at college that I love and helps me grow every week. I look forward to church now instead of viewing it as an obligation! As for my faith journey, it has been interesting finding my own faith after growing up in a christian home. My faith ebbed and flowed throughout my life, but it wasn't until this year where I truly committed my heart to following God! It has been a year of challenges, growth, and a deepening of my relationship and understanding of God. My journey is not clean cut or a straight line, but it has made me who I am today. Christ is at the center of my life and I am committed to making him the light that guides my feet wherever I go! I was a wandering sheep, and Jesus, the good Shepherd, found me and has changed my heart in so many ways and I could not be more grateful!
