Happy Friday!

What if I told you the most challenging part of your faith walk isn’t knowing where you’re going—it’s realizing you don’t even know where you are?

This Sunday, I’m preaching a message that might challenge some of the church clichés we’ve all heard:

Just move forward.
God’s got a plan.
Take the next step.

But what do you do when you don’t know which direction is forward?

What if clarity doesn’t come from movement… but from stillness?

🎯 If you’ve ever felt stuck in the middle…
🎯 If you’ve ever smiled in public but felt lost in private…
🎯 If you’ve ever wondered why God seems quiet when you need answers the most…

This word is for you.

Because the God who meets us at the finish line… also meets us in the fog.

Even here, He’s speaking. Are you listening?

Let’s lock in—
