Mercy for the Worst of Sinners (March 9, 2026)

Two half-brothers leave for the same war; only one comes home. When rescue divides one person from another, “Why me?” can feel unanswerable—and salvation can raise the same uneasy question. In 1 Timothy 1:15–16, Paul refuses to ground his rescue in merit, calling himself the worst of sinners and pointing instead to Christ’s purpose and patience.

Beyond Getting Even: Dross, Not Destruction (March 8, 2026)

When we want vengeance, we want to get back—but Isaiah 1:24–25 shows a God who wants to get back to *good*, and that difference is harder to hold onto than it sounds when the anger is righteous and the wrong is real.

This Week at Little Hills - Deuteronomy (March 2, 2026)

Who is supposed to teach whom? Pastor Tim thinks about that as we turn to Deuteronomy next in 52 Verses, 52 Books and 52 Weeks for 2026.

The Life of a Dumpster Fire (March 2, 2026)

Are we a mess? So was Paul. Can God use us? Absolutely.

Painting Over Rust (March 1, 2026)

How can those who have known God's rescue still chase worldly compromise that looks so much like success? That is the exasperated cry of Isaiah 1:21 as the faithful city becomes a harlot—once full of justice, now only murderers, its silver turned to dross.

This Week at Little Hills - 2 John (March 1, 2026)

Pastor Tim helps us to make sense of meaning of “antichrists” and truth in 2 John as we continue in 52 Verses, 52 Books and 52 Weeks for 2026.

Don't Eat the Vine (February 23, 2026)

We need to know what things are for and use them in the right way in life. That’s true of God’s law just like anything else.

Stop and Think: Trespassing With Good Intentions (February 22, 2026)

We've all tried to manage our relationship with God on our own terms—keeping up appearances, going through the motions, assuming good effort is good enough. Isaiah 1:18 cuts through that with a direct invitation: “Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord”—and the question it presses is whether we'll actually stop and think about what he's offering.

Ash Wednesday

Coming Before Our Forgiving God

As we enter into a season of preparation in the weeks ahead of Easter, Ash Wednesday is a time to stop, reflect and place before God those sins and struggles we are burdened by. Join us for a brief evening prayer service that will include receiving ashes, a sign God’s people have participated in since the Old Testament times to express our frailty before God. As we take this time together, we will be reminded of the life He offers us in His Word.

Don't Swerve (February 16, 2026)

There are two different charges vying for our attention: love and pride. Which one will we answer to?
