Spiritual Consumption: What are You Eating?

Garnet Nowell — Mon, 11 May 2026 15:53:37 +0000

Have you ever heard the phrase, “You are what you eat”? Most people use this statement when talking about physical health. If we constantly consume unhealthy foods, eventually it affects our energy, strength, and overall well-being. But this principle also applies spiritually. What we consume spiritually shapes our thoughts, attitudes, character, and actions. The more we consume the Word of God, the more we begin to reflect His nature. Many believers desire to grow closer to God, yet spiritual growth does not happen accidentally or overnight. Just as the body needs daily nourishment, our spirit needs daily feeding on God’s Read More

Anger: From Pain to Purpose

Garnet Nowell — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 12:47:57 +0000

Anger is a real and powerful emotion. It often rises from deep places—wounds, disappointment, betrayal, and unresolved trauma. At times, anger can serve a purpose. It can alert us to injustice, push us to set boundaries, and even motivate change. But the question we must ask ourselves is this: Is the anger you’re carrying today helping you move forward, or is it keeping you stuck? Unresolved anger has a way of anchoring us to the past. It replays old conversations, reopens healed wounds, and distorts how we see present opportunities. What once may have protected you can begin to limit Read More

“For we are His workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].”— Ephesians 2:10 From the time children are old enough to talk, adults ask them the same familiar question: “What do you want to be when you grow up?” It’s a well-meaning question — but it’s the wrong one. It points a Read More

The Extravagant Resurrection

Garnet Nowell — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 11:46:57 +0000

Step outside this Easter weekend and look closely at the world around you. A tulip shouldering its way through cold soil. A bare branch suddenly crowned in pale green. A garden that, just weeks ago, seemed utterly lifeless — now trembling with color and fragrance. Spring is not subtle; it is insistent. It refuses to let death have the final word. “See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone. Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come.”— Song of Solomon 2:11–12 Long before the first Easter morning, God was writing the story of Jesus’ Read More

God’s Divine Recipe: Trusting His Plan for Your Life

Garnet Nowell — Mon, 16 Mar 2026 12:09:31 +0000

Anyone who enjoys cooking knows that a good meal usually begins with a great recipe. A recipe provides the ingredients, the measurements, and the instructions needed to create the final dish. Without it, the outcome can be unpredictable. In many ways, our lives operate the same way. Just as a recipe guides a cook, God has a divine recipe—a plan—for each of our lives. The Bible reminds us in Jeremiah 29:11: “For I know the plans and thoughts that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘plans for peace and well-being and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” Like Read More

Divinely Contagious: How the Gospel Is Meant to Spread

Garnet Nowell — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 12:13:42 +0000

Did you know that Gospel was meant to be contagious? Jesus never intended the message of the Kingdom to remain contained. The gospel was designed to move, multiply, and spread from person to person—much like a powerful force that cannot be contained. In many ways, the imperative to share the Word of God operates like a virus with a divine purpose: it spreads through contact, transforms those it reaches, and continues multiplying through those who have been changed. Before Jesus ascended into heaven, He gave His followers a clear command: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations [help the Read More
