Am I accountable?

Nehemiah 5:6-12 (NIV) When I heard their outcry and these charges, I was very angry. I pondered them in my mind and then accused the nobles and officials. I told them, “You are charging your own people interest!” So I called together a large meeting to deal with them and said: “As far as possible, we have bought back our fellow Jews who were sold to the Gentiles. Now you are selling your own peopl...

Embrace My Role

1 Corinthians 12:15-21 (NIV)  Now if the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body w...

Staying the Course

Nehemiah 4:10-11, 15 (ESV) In Judah it was said, “The strength of those who bear the burdens is failing. There is too much rubble.

Everyone Did Their Part

Sundays at the Tree Church Daily are a day to prepare our hearts for what God wants to do through corporate worship.

Reflecting on Bad Timing is Perfect Timing

Saturday is a day to reflect on all that God was speaking to you this week and how it will affect your life going forward.

The Blessings of Obedience

Do you trust that God loves you perfectly, and that you should follow steps of obedience even when the timing doesn’t make sense?

The Willing Heart

A lot can be accomplished if we know what our purpose is and give generously according to that purpose.

Sacrificial Giving

“We need to always remember that as we give, God sees our hearts, motives, and intent.”

The Richness of Jesus

When we give generously, God is faithful to provide all we need.

Consider Your Ways

While steps of obedience are hard, the reward of following after God is better than anything life has to offer!
