God doesn't need us to contribute to His plan for our lives. God wants us to be all in, in full worship, and fully engaged with the other parts of the body of Christ. Romans 12 is where we begin. I encourage you to read the whole chapter of Romans 12 to see how God speaks to you about your part in the body of Christ. Then I want you to read Psalm 139 each day for the next week but read it like it is your prayer to God and see how God speaks to you. This message was shared with the congregation of FMC in Trussville. Much Agape ev'body! Shan, the Recovery Pastor…
Luke 13:6-9 tells of a fig tree that produced no fruit. The fig tree is very symbolic in Scripture. We are the fig tree in our faith journey and one day we will stand before the ultimate Gardner and He will decide if we were fruitful or if we need to be cut down. I pray the lessons learned in 2024 will bring good fruit in 2025! Much Agape ev'body! Shan, the Recovery Pastor…
Remember that your ordinary day is the perfect day to pray for God to show up and show out because our humble hearts are waiting for the return of His Son, Christ! Much Agape ev'body! Shan, the Recovery Pastor
In biblical times, Marriage included several stages. The betrothed or engagement period was not like our modern engagements. The engagement of joseph and Mary was a legal contract. It was binding and they were practically married once this contract was made. So, when joseph discovered that Mary was pregnant, he decided to divorce her secretly. Much Agape ev'body!

Since we are talking about the 7 reasons we get stuck, can I make a confession here? I don’t like that word stuck. For me, it implies a sense of powerlessness. I don’t like being powerless. I know, I know, we admit we are powerless over our compulsive behaviors and our lives have become unmanageable but I don't want to be stuck anywhere in life! Much Agape ev'body!

There are people in your life that will tell you to shut up and sit down. You keep doing what God called you to do. You keep saying the words God gives you to speak. You keep encouraging those God puts before you. Much Agape ev'body! Shan, the Recovery Pastor
Sometimes we need to remind ourselves just as David did that God is still in control. His promises are still true. He created us for abundance. Our value and worth is not determined by the eyes, minds, and thoughts of others. Much Agape ev'body! Shan, the Recovery Pastor
