This morning, as I sat down with my Bible and my coffee, the Lord began to speak. And it was one of those moments where I didn't question it, but rather just embraced it. It was clear and wonderful as usual, yet humbling at the same time. The year 2018 has quickly become the year of expectancy, as God is stirring the hearts of His people again.

This year, our church has had somewhat of a theme or a distinct purpose. And that is, to make God big. Now, you may be wondering; if He's God, isn't He already big?
