We’re often told to be strong, but what if we’ve been focusing on the wrong thing? This talk uses a simple, inflatable shark to illustrate one of the most important spiritual principles: you will always bounce back, not because you are strong, but because your foundation is. Learn how having Jesus as your foundation means that no matter how hard life hits you—or how many times you get knocked down—you are built to rise again. This is a message of hope for anyone feeling worn out by life’s battles.

We often hear about the resurrection of Jesus, but what makes it fundamentally different from every other person in history who was raised from the dead? Drawing from Philippians 3:20, we examine the promise of our “citizenship in heaven.” While others returned to a mortal life, Jesus rose with an imperishable, glorified body—becoming the “resurrection and the life.” Learn how His victory isn’t a look backward at history, but a powerful promise of the future that awaits all who follow Him.

“I’ll be there at nine.” “I’ll check on that for you.” Are these casual remarks or are they promises? This reflection explores how the ancient wisdom of Proverbs 22—”A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches”—applies directly to our modern lives. Through a moving personal story and a heartfelt prayer, we uncover how seemingly small acts of keeping our word are the building blocks of a powerful reputation. This is a call to be mindful of our promises and build a character that honors our name, our work, and our faith.

In a world of changing slang, one old expression deserves a comeback: “That dog will hunt.” It used to be a high compliment for something that was just plain right. This message unpacks that idea, transforming it into a beautiful metaphor for a life well-lived. What if a simple act of kindness, a tip for the garbage collector, or an encouraging word to a clerk was described with that same level of admiration? This is a heartfelt reminder that the best exercise for the heart is reaching down to lift others up. Now that will hunt.
