Sometimes God calls us to do hard things. To be faithful in a thankless job. To keep showing up in a difficult relationship. To face a new day with chronic pain. To walk into the room knowing it will be rough. This Sunday, we’re going to talk about facing the fire. Because sometimes there’s no … [Read More…] April 26, 2026

Every household has distinctive values, which define the family culture. In our family, we say: “Millers do hard things.” We’re adventurous, hardworking, and don’t quit when things get tough. As I look back on my family tree, it is evident that value goes back for generations. It’s who we are.   The household of God … [Read More…] April 19, 2026

Holy Week is special. Over the years, our family has found it meaningful to journey each day with Jesus through this week that changed history. The tradition actually goes back to my parents who outlined readings for each day from the four biographies of Jesus in the New Testament. If you’d like to read along … [Read More…] March 29, 2026

Ministry is full of hidden dangers. That’s true, not just for those in who are in professional full-time ministry, but for all of us who serve the Lord in different ways. As we turn to Acts 18:24–19:20 today, we find the apostle Paul coming face-to-face with three dangers: comparison, celebrity, and control.   We still … [Read More…] March 22, 2026

In our cultural moment, we are called to do the same.   This … [Read More…] March 08, 2026

In Acts 17, the apostle Paul gives a masterclass on how to preach the Gospel to people without a shared biblical foundation. Unlike his previous sermons preached to fellow Jews who understood the Old Testament, Paul, in Athens, begins with the human intuition of the divine and the idolatry that captivates our souls. From there … [Read More…] March 01, 2026

In many Christian traditions, Lent is a corporate season of fasting and prayerful reflection on Jesus’ atoning work on the cross and glorious resurrection from the dead. While we don’t usually have a particular churchwide focus … [Read More…] February 22, 2026
