  • Holy Lament vs. Spiritual Bypassing:

    Why Suppressing Pain Isn’t Biblical Obedience ​We have all seen the narrative: if you are carrying hurt, disappointment, or anger, you are failing your faith. You are told you are “getting in your own way,” that your unresolved feelings are a hindrance to your purpose, and that true spiritual maturity means instantly taking those thoughts… Read more

  • The “Real” Tea:

    Grace is Easy, Love is Work ​Let’s stop playing church and start talking about the heart. Everyone has “Grace” for people when the lights are on. It’s easy to be polite and follow the social script of “treating people how you want to be treated”. But I’m looking at what happens when the conversation ends.… Read more

  • The Theology of the Runaway:

    ​From the Wilderness to the Remnant ​Pull up a chair and take a sip. We need to talk about a story we think we know, but through a lens most are too afraid to use. We often discuss the twelve-year-old boy in the Temple (Luke 2) as a perfect Sunday school lesson. We focus on… Read more

  • The Spore Effect:

    Why Good People Turn ​Today we’re getting into something that most people don’t want to talk about because it feels uncomfortable. We’re talking about the “Spore Effect.” You know, we spend so much time focusing on how to grow good fruit in our lives, joy, peace, humility, and gratefulness. We treat these attributes like they… Read more

  • The Dirty Glass and the Well of Life

    ​I’ve spent many years sitting at a table where the conversation was loud, but the nourishment was non-existent. I showed up with a heart ready to be led, taught, and discipled. I brought my history, all the miles I traveled to survive, and I brought my future, working through the nights to earn my Master… Read more

  • The Uprise of Unity and the Whole Gospel

    From Scars to Shared Strength: Our Assignment for Kingdom Rehabilitation Hey God’Sip crew, we’ve examined the scars, the trauma, and the cycles of hurt that affected both the lost and the very Pastors, Elders, and Leaders who stood in their positions. We, the children of the “Church Lost,” have seen the receipts. ​Our Uprise is… Read more

  • The Glory Mission:

    When Lowliness Becomes the Light ​It’s understandable how easily we get caught up in the pressure of perfection. In a world saturated with filters and curated appearances, the struggle to ignore the mirror is real. We feel that weight. ​But friends, we must shift our focus. When we truly grasp the sacred assignment He gave… Read more

  • Tithes: Command, Ritual, or a Heart of Worship?

    ​The question of tithing is one of the biggest debates in the church today. Does God really command us to drop exactly 10% of our paycheck into the offering plate, or is this a ritual created by man built off a single command given to a single man? ​Let’s spill the God’Sip and Tea on… Read more
