We live in a world of surface-level interactions. From social media conversations to casually waving at the neighbors, many of our relationships remain shallow. But when it comes to our relationship with God, He invites us into something more. God wants us to move beyond surface-level spirituality and dive into a deep faith. It’s not just knowing about God but truly knowing Him. It’s time to stop skimming the surface and discover the power and peace that come from living the deep life.

Empty. A word typically associated with something lost. An empty chair at the dinner table. An empty wallet. An empty bed. An empty promise. Easter is the time we celebrate the empty tomb, yet this “empty” doesn’t represent loss—it’s a sign of victory! The crucifixion, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ are not just historical events, but they signify a victory that was won for us all. His resurrection left the tomb empty, which means we’ve gained hope over despair, light over darkness, salvation over condemnation, and life over death!
