13/05/2026 | 19 min
Fr. Mike focuses on trust today, specifically trusting God in difficult times. Like David, we need to learn to trust God in the midst of the battle, rather than waiting until the batter is over. Today's readings are 2 Samuel 15, 1 Chronicles 19-20, and Psalm 3.

Day 132: David and Absalom (2026)
12/05/2026 | 16 min
Fr. Mike reflects on the story of David and Absalom, and points out the lack of forgiveness and repentance on both men's part. God forgives us no matter what, but without us mirroring that forgiveness, rebellion can easily rise up. Today's readings are 2 Samuel 14, 1 Chronicles 18, and Psalm 14.

Day 131: Hope for the Future (2026)
11/05/2026 | 24 min
Fr. Mike preaches hope for the future of those with wounded hearts as we read the stories of Tamar, Amnon, and David. No matter what's in your past - things you've done or things that have been done to you - there is abundant hope for your future because God desires to make you whole. Today's readings are 2 Samuel 13, 1 Chronicles 17, and Psalm 35.
