The Chapel Quotes
“Get some courage and faith and take the next step of commitment in the body of Christ. We are a family, and we need each other. Have a prayer life that shifts from formal repeated prayers to a raw, real dialogue with God. Prayer that’s filled with confession and questioning and surrender and desperation and intercession, learning to listen to God’s voice. It’s a shift from religion to relationship. God wants to bring forgiveness and healing and wholeness to your life, to your heart.”
“Getting saved is not the finish line but the entrance point into a brand new life with Jesus. The body of Christ is a beautiful hopeful gathering of people wounded by life and sin but holding each other up by being present to one another, being accountable to one another, praying for one another, loving one another as we walk together deeper into Christ’s love and God’s truth, one step at a time. Where are you on this journey?”

Devotion 01/18/2026
Our Devotion, “Peace of God” is by Katelyn S. Irons of Lambertville, Michigan, who studied professional writing at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “’For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’” Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
The air was thick with the suffocating aroma of corn dogs and funnel cake. The line surged forward and I was pushed past the ticket booth. My father sat on the sweaty plastic seat and latched the overhead belt. I shook my head, but he held my arm and pulled me inside. The ride started to move, swinging back and forth like a pendulum. I gripped the seat in front of me as we rose higher and higher. Then we swooshed backward in one swift movement. I screamed. My dad laughed and patted my hand. The ride continued to swing back and forth, but the sound of my father’s voice calmed my fears. I felt at peace.
Sometimes it seems that life is hurtling us out of control, but God has a plan. Whether at the peak or in the valley, He is in control and will never let go. Always know that God has your best in mind, and He has His arms around you during the ride.
PRAYER: “Dear, Heavenly Father, help me to listen to Your plans. Remind me that You are the one in control, and nothing will ever
change that. Give me peace that I may follow You better. In Your name, Amen.”

More: How To Move From Activity for God to Intimacy With God
By Greg L. Hawkins
Multnomah Books, PB, 206 pages
More is a dangerous book. It is a book that asks of its reader to shed any shallowness in his or her relationship with God and to dive deeper. Hawkins presents steps toward a consuming intimacy with God, steps that are simple to understand yet challenging to carry out. Hawkins walks the reader through guiding concepts, then reduces those concepts into easy-to-remember slogans that ring in the reader’s mind long after he or she lays the book down. He did not come up with these guiding concepts overnight but discovered them throughout his years as a pastor and devoted follower of Christ, which he expands upon in the autobiographical portions of the book. Intimacy with God is shown as entirely attainable and wonderful. All that one must do is shrug off a life of less and take up a life of more.
This is biblically sound advice for Christians looking to deepen their intimacy with God, but who are unsure of what steps to take. Nothing heretical or controversial stands out. Bible verses from various translations are peppered throughout, giving the reader scriptural support for the steps Hawkins has devised. The book is not just Hawkins’s advice, but also his testimony of discovering these steps.
