Message: A Time For Re-Dedication -Josh 23-24 This Sunday at 10 AM we will re-dedicate America and ourselves back to God at Faith Fellowship in Luck. As we celebrate 250 years of freedom, this is an opportunity to rededicate ourselves to the principles that gave birth to this land of liberty. As George Washington famously said in his Farewell Address, “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In v

Eric Church speech strikes a chord for traditional values
Thousands of graduation speakers have come and gone, offering pithy bits of wisdom and advice, much of which feels recycled and overused by this point. How do you come up with a message that feels new and fresh? If you’re Eric Church, you pull out your guitar and offer a metaphor for life that hits all the right notes. The country music superstar spoke to the 2026 graduates of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, but most of his speech felt universal. Some are cal

Why Christians Suffer
Just think about how much suffering you have endured in your lifetime. Now, multiply that by the number of Christians on the earth and you will begin to realize that suffering is a huge problem. Yes, we bring about some suffering by ourselves, but suffering for doing right seems to be an epidemic. I've put together a list of different reasons that Christians suffer. Sometimes there are several reasons at once. Here goes:
We suffer sometimes...

This Sunday is Palm Sunday, and we will be studying from Psalm 134, the final psalm in the Psalms of Ascent (120–134).

Feed my sheep
Jesus said, “Feed my sheep.” -John 21:17
Just before Jesus died, Simon Peter told Jesus that he had reached the place where he would never deny Him. Hours later Peter denied knowing Him with a curse. Could Peter ever be trusted again? After Jesus resurrection He asked Peter three times, "Do you love me?" When Peter said, "Yes, you know I love you," Jesus gave Peter instruction to feed His sheep, or, care for those who followed the Great Shepherd.

HOPE
It has been said, "You can live a few days without water, but you can't begin to live without hope." Hope has been illusive to many in recent days. So, the greatest gift anyone can give you is hope! This gift is not in the form of a payment from the government or the promise of a politician; it comes from God alone!

Prepare Your Heart For Valentine's Day
"Greater love has no one than this, that one lays down his or her life for someone else." -Jesus Human relationships need a lot of sowing, watering and cultivating. Don't expect magic on Valentine's Day if you have not prepared the soil. Jesus said that our hearts are like soil, and what we plant won't grow unless the soil is well prepared and the conditions are right. In interpersonal relationships, two hearts have to be prepared if Valentine's Day is going to be a success.

The Reasonableness of the Prolife Movement
Reasons I'm prolife I'm prolife because my family is prolife. If my ancestors...every one of them were not prolife, I wouldn't be here. If my children weren't prolife, I wouldn't have any grandchildren. If my neighbors weren't prolife, they wouldn't be here. This is pretty simple.

“Behold, I Am Doing a New Thing”
Isaiah 43:19 “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
A new year doesn’t magically erase the wilderness seasons we’ve walked through. But God’s promise in Isaiah is not about our circumstances changing first—it’s about His presence breaking in with newness, direction, and hope.
God specializes in:
Making paths where none existed
Bringing life to dry places
Renewing hearts that

Christmas gifts come in all sorts of wrappings, but the greatest gifts aren’t wrapped in paper or placed under a tree.

Giving the Gift of Kindness
"Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." — Ephesians 4:32 Kindness is more than polite words or gentle actions—it is the overflow of a heart transformed by God’s love. When we show kindness, we reflect the very character of Christ, who reached out to the broken, welcomed the outcast, and forgave even those who betrayed Him. In a world often marked by harshness and division, kindness becomes a radical act of faith.
