Thanks for listening!

Over the past few years of releasing daily devotionals, we expanded the voices and topics we’ve shared and found you really enjoyed learning from our newer and younger staff as well as those who have been around for awhile.

As we move forward with our focus on raising and equipping Go First leaders, we have determined it is time to bring our devotionals to a close, but will be releasing seasonal devotionals throughout the year.

If you have any questions, please send them to info@thechurchrb.org.

You Want To Do What?!

Pastor Harry Kuehl

Let me ask you a question: Do you smell like Jesus? In 2 Corinthians 2:14-15, the Apostle Paul says that Jesus had a fragrance about Him that made people want to be close to Him – it was called "Love!" They knew He loved them and valued them because when they encountered Him they experienced… Eye Contact… Heart Contact!

Eye Contact… Heart Contact

To Get Deep We’ve Got To Get Uncomfortable

9/7/23

Sometimes new depths require uncomfortable rhythms. Where is God inviting you to go deeper in your journey?

Be Happy… With Who I Am!

9/6/23

Here's the deal. We all have areas of our life that we need to improve… But… we cannot become so focused on our faults that we cease to enjoy who God made us to be. You've got to be happy with who God made you to be!

Gentle Whisper

9/5/23

Great news, right?! Except Elijah was discouraged, weary and afraid. Do you ever feel that way? There have been some great successes, but you’ve fought hard to get your child back on track in school, finally landed a new job, or found a home that meets your needs. But something is “off” and God seems distant.

Life Verse

9/4/23

A life verse, by definition, is a verse in the Bible that touches you personally, and awakens your belief in God’s love and plan for you.

Bathing Dogs

9/2/23

Feeling like your emotions are a little out of whack today? Try the bathing dogs response – get up right now and literally shake your emotions back into a sense of order, remembering that how you feel is up to you. And, that attempting to infuse health into your emotional well being is exactly the way God invites you – all of us – into a life of maturity with Him.

This Is Who We Are

9/1/23

In our walk with Jesus, there is no “goal” to be met, no “finish line” we’re sprinting towards. It’s long obedience in the same direction. We’ll never reach perfection – only He can have that title – but we can work on getting closer to loving with a heart like His each and every day.

Pizza And Jesus

8/31/23

Pizza or health food? Jesus or the world? Choose the thing that will truly sustain you.

Don’t “Should” Yourself!

8/30/23

If, lately, you've been asking yourself, "Why am I so tired? How come I don't have the energy I used to? Why do I feel like… If I don't get away I'm gonna go nuts?" If that's you...Take a lesson from Jesus who listened to something deeper than the demands around Him.

Run With Endurance

8/29/23

The Christian life is not easy. Jesus tells us to “take up our cross and follow Him” and sometimes we will hit a wall. But God still gave us a purpose for our lives in the midst of suffering with physical, emotional, relational, or vocational challenges. As we continue to run with perseverance through this life, with our eyes fixed on Jesus, we can grow in wisdom and strength, while knowing Jesus more intimately! When the challenges come and you grow discouraged, focus on Him!

Boardroom

8/28/23

Friends, we need one another. We were not created to operate on an island. We were created for fellowship and bonding with one another.

God’s Way Or The Highway

8/26/23

Friends, sometimes we exert more “effort” in avoiding God’s will due to stubbornness, pride, or even fear, but my hope for you and me is that we could recognize God’s nudging, and more importantly, be willing to surrender to His will.

Self-Inventory

8/25/23

If you had to take a self-inventory today, what would it read? Are you anxious? Frustrated? Overwhelmed? Whatever it is, I urge you to take it captive and then lay it at the feet of Jesus.

The Gentleness Of Jesus

8/24/23

When we have experienced the life changing gentleness, humility, and meekness of Jesus, that’s the kind of life we go out and live.

What To Do On The Worst Day Of Your Life

8/23/23

Today… I offer this devotional to anyone who has ever found themselves living through The Worst Day of Their Life.

Hurry Up And Wait!

8/22/23

I've been studying Job the last six months. Wow! Talk about a long depressing book. Today, I finished chapter 39 when God speaks to Job and I’m beginning to see there is hope for Job. As I’ve been reading my daily chapters, I’ve been reminded that Job didn’t grumble or complain against God. James says in chapter 5 that Job persevered and God’s compassion and mercy was fully realized!

Trials

8/21/23

I don’t know what you are up against, but I do know that every one of us is up against something. And while you may feel, at times, like cursing God and dying, know that He is faithful, He is walking the journey with you, and He will lead you to the other side.

Make Your Impact

8/19/23

In addition to the benefits of serving others and the fact that we were created to do so, make no mistake friends – serving others is absolutely the call on your life if you claim to be a follower of Jesus.

Embracing The Grief

8/17/23

Are you ready to embrace the grief of life to grow closer to the Great Comforter? Jesus describes the blessed life as including grief and mourning.

I Forgive… YOU!

8/16/23

Forgiveness is extending to other people the one thing we want most for ourselves… grace!

Abundance Or Scarcity?

8/15/23

There seems to be a lot of talk these days about a scarcity mindset versus growth mindset. How will you operate in your job? Are you fearful of doing anything outside of your job description? Do you jump in and help others? We can’t move forward in an organization without coming up with new creative ideas.
