The Chapel Quotes
“As Jesus entered into Jerusalem, He had a different mission than what a lot of people thought. Those who thought He was coming as a conquering military leader, when His pure and perfect mission was to serve as a suffering servant for us. Often the picture of what we think Jesus was, is different from what reality is. God can’t leave sin unpunished. We want God to judge us by our intentions and not by our actions.”
“God is about the process and the program of getting closer to us because the closer we are the more blessing there is for other people. The cross is the place where God’s wrath and the place where God’s love collide. Lay down your fear of God’s wrath. The love and the wrath of God on the cross is to propel us into holiness and obedience, into being a person who is loving and following Jesus. May today be a day we re-dedicate as followers of Jesus to live a life of holiness by drawing in greater proximity to Him.”

Devotion 03/29/2026
Our Devotion, “Distracting Worries” is by Caitlin Wilson a professional writing major at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana, and a freelance writer for The Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette, Church Libraries, and Christian Book Previews.
Read Matthew 6:25-34
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.” – Matthew 6:34 (NIV)
As an undergraduate student, my schedule always seems too full. With taking 17 credit hours, doing homework, reading, leading a freshmen discussion group, participating in dorm events, going to my weekly Bible study, and playing keyboard for my dorm’s worship team, I am constantly worried about fulfilling the next event on my schedule.
But why should I worry about tomorrow’s happenings? Worrying certainly won’t change the outcome of an event. Instead, worrying is often accompanied by sleep loss, ulcers, bad attitudes, and distraction from our relationships with God. Jesus’ words in Matthew chapter six are not only practical for our physical and emotional health, but also for our spiritual lives. The next time you’re tempted to worry about that big project at work, your children’s grades, or your financial future, replace that worry with God’s comforting care.
Lord, help me not to become distracted by worries. Amen.

Liturgy of the Ordinary
By Tish Harrison Warren I
nterVarsity Press, PB, 153 pages
Living as humans takes more maintenance than most folks are willing to admit. That being said, maintenance time is often wasted time. Warren gives an example of this in her own life in her opening chapters. The early moments of Warren’s day were spent on her phone checking social media. Instead, Warren decided to spend the first minutes making her bed. When she finished, she sat in quiet meditation listening to the Lord.
Throughout Liturgy of the Ordinary, Warren gives many examples—similar to the one above—of how daily routines can be modified to get to know our Creator better. From simple tasks, such as dining with friends to the horror of losing house and car keys, Warren gives advice on various activities that make up the human experience, and she links them to Christianity in the process. In one example, Warren connects several scriptural passages and relates them to a story about a church service that explained that the simplest way to overcome marital arguments was to apologize, forgive, and reconcile.
Though Warren has the tendency to be a tad redundant, it is to show how one activity can be coupled with another. The entire book is well thought out and has great Christian impact. Most of the anecdotes are at the beginning of each chapter so Warren can break into the religious explanations of how to solve a specific problem before she gives the conclusion of her story. Seeking God is always the best choice when an obstacle appears. Warren demonstrates exactly how to do that in day-to-day life.
This book illustrates how to live a life showing complete devotion to God. From brushing teeth to eating food, Warren points out ways to do so by worshipping God in the process. Many scriptural passages (as well as church service liturgies and ceremonies) are referenced in each chapter. Suggested readership is ages 20 and up since this book is geared toward an audience who has an established a daily routine. Many of the scenarios Warren uses are those of a person who owns a living space and has developed his or her own family. However, it is entirely likely that teenagers could find benefits from this book, and parents can certainly instill these values in their children.
