Grace and peace to you.

As we enter this sacred Easter season, I want to personally invite you to journey with us through our 40-Day Easter Devotional: Walking With Jesus; Before, During, and After the Cross.

This devotional is designed to help us slow down and walk intentionally with Christ, through His humility, His servant leadership, His challenges, His Holy Week journey, the Seven Last Words, the silence of Saturday, the power of Resurrection morning, His ascension, and the explosive movement of the Holy Spirit in the book of Acts.

This is not simply daily reading.

It is spiritual formation.

It is leadership renewal.

It is an opportunity to align our service with the Servant King.

Every Wednesday, you will receive the next seven days of devotionals so that we can move together with focus and intentionality. My prayer is that as we walk this journey, we will deepen our faith, strengthen our resilience, and celebrate the blessing of a living and risen Savior.

Because the Cross was not the end.
The tomb did not win.
Jesus lives — and because He lives, we lead differently.

As we focus on spiritual renewal this Easter season, we are also preparing for a powerful moment of collective strengthening:  NSO Resilience Summit 2026

“Restore. Renew. Ready.”
