Our writer went to THE WEEKND concert thinking: I’m just here for the music. 🎸 But the experience made her question whether good intentions were enough.

For #WorldMentalHealthDay, we're sharing a story of grief, loss and hope in the darkest places. 🕊 As a teenager, she learned her father had died by suicide, bringing her back to a night when she had nearly lost hope herself. She shares how God met her in both moments, and why our darkest moments need not be the end. ⚠️ Content warning: This story contains references to suicide and suicidal thoughts.

One of our contributors lost his best friend to suicide this year. He still doesn't have an answer for why. But in the question he couldn't shake, he found something sure to hold onto. READ 🔲 th1r.st/nsh If it's been a while since you checked in on someone, this might be the moment.

Most of us have a view on what is wrong with cell group. But how often do we ask what we are bringing to it? 😐 The early Church in Acts 2 points to three shifts that every member can start on, not just the leader: th1r.st/3e

David wasn't even invited to the lineup when Samuel came looking for a king. The Israelites were the fewest of all peoples. And when the Saviour Himself showed up, He picked a donkey over a warhorse. There's a pattern here: none of it looked the way you'd expect God to move. So when a professor from Asbury told us what the 2023 revival there was actually like, it left me with one question: what are we actually asking for when we pray for God to move in Singapore?

Four years ago, when we were deciding whether to get a dog, everyone gave us the same warning: the hardest part is when they finally pass on. 😐 That warning has stayed with me, and it's made me ask a question I don't think the Bible answers as simply as we'd like: will I see my dog in heaven?

You served on platform yesterday. Today, no one's watching. That's when the real test starts. 🐶

Fellowship. We throw the word around a lot, but when did it become just code for "hanging out"? 🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈 th1r.st/flwshp

Happy Teacher's Day! 🥳 With teachers off on Friday, take the time to send yours a message, tag them below, or just say a prayer for them today. Behind every classroom is a person carrying more than lesson plans, and we asked three educators what actually keeps them going when the passion starts to fade. Their answers came down to three things: purpose, endurance and teachability. Swipe through, then head to the full article for the rest 🍎

Ahead of Teacher's Day, ever wonder if your effort with your students is actually landing? It's a question most teachers never get a real answer to, as students simply move on (and so fast!). 😐 Here's what keeps this teacher going anyway 🐈 th1r.st/ics

God doesn't just want you to know about Him. He wants you to know Him. You can know everything about someone and still not know the person. At Catalyst Conference, Pastor ANDREW YEO pointed to Joshua, who learned to linger in the tent, alone with God, long before he ever led a nation. READ 🖥 th1r.st/lngr What is God trying to form in you, in private, before anyone else sees it?

Have you come face to face with your brokenness yet? Is there something you're trying to hide from God? 💕 Psalm 32 begins with an assurance: whoever confesses their sins to Him and hides nothing in deceit will be forgiven. But refusal and resistance to admit our sins lead to inward turmoil and agony, wasting us away from the inside out. Yet God's unfailing love is always waiting for us to come clean. Respond to Him while He may still be found, for repentance surely leads to freedom and joy.
