Years ago, a summer picnic and a shared book on a Virginia mountaintop sparked a lifelong tradition for Senior Pastor Brian and his wife, Susan. One of their most memorable reads, See You in a Hundred Years, tells the story of a modern family who leaves behind the chaos of city life to live as if it were 1900—no electricity, no plumbing, no shortcuts. It’s a story of disconnection and rediscovery.
That same theme—learning to trust again in a world that demands constant self-sufficiency—runs through the wilderness journey of the Israelites. Rescued from slavery, they grumble at their new freedom, longing for the predictability of their past. But God meets them in the desert with daily provision: bread in the morning, quail at night. Just enough. No more. No less.
This message explores our own hunger for security and how often we place our trust in savings, systems, and self. But God’s invitation is simple: trust Me for today. Join us as we reflect on how God provides—not just then, but now—and how that truth is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus, the Bread of Life.
