Take 20 ## The Humility to Ask for Help September 15th, 2026 Peter connects humility with how we respond to anxiety. When we are anxious about things we cannot control, our instinct can be to try harder, figure everything out, or carry the burden ourselves. But God invites us to humble ourselves by recognizing that we need His help and trusting that He cares for us. Casting our anxieties on God is an act of humility because we are admitting that we cannot carry everything on our own. https://thetree.church/blog/2026/09/15/the-humility-to-ask-for-help Take 20 · July 29th, 2026 ### When Truth Becomes Relative Relativism tells us that truth is whatever we decide it is. It sounds freeing, but it is actually one of the most dangerous ideas a society can embrace. When everyone defines their own reality, there is no shared foundation left to stand on. Conflict becomes inevitable because no one has a common reference point. The writer of Proverbs understood this long before modern philosophy gave it a name. A path can look completely reasonable and still lead somewhere devastating. The antidote is not arrogance or certainty about everything—it is humility before a God who sees more clearly than we do and has given us His Word as a guide. https://thetree.church/blog/2026/07/29/when-truth-becomes-relative Take 20 · March 11th, 2026 ### Serving as Worship When Jesus wrapped a towel around His waist and washed His disciples' feet, He wasn't just teaching a lesson—He was establishing a new standard. God Himself, in human flesh, performed the task reserved for the lowest servant. This wasn't a one-time demonstration; it revealed the ongoing heart of God toward us. He still serves us with grace, pursues us in our brokenness, and works in our situations. Serving isn't just an activity; it's an act of worship that realigns our hearts with God's heart. When we serve, we don't just help others—we become more like Jesus. Every act of service is a declaration that we trust God's way over the world's way. Today, look for one opportunity to serve someone in a way that costs you something—time, comfort, or pride. https://thetree.church/blog/2026/03/11/serving-as-worship Take 20 · February 17th, 2026 ### Lifted When You Fall We will all stumble in our attempts to follow Jesus. Just like babies learning to walk, falling is part of the human story. But God never intended for us to struggle alone. Paul reminds us that restoration is a community responsibility—marked by gentleness, humility, and love. True Christian community creates space for confession and healing, not condemnation. Yet this kind of support requires vulnerability before crisis hits. Pride isolates, but humility invites help. When we allow others into our struggles, we experience God’s grace through His people. https://thetree.church/blog/2026/02/17/lifted-when-you-fall Take 20 · January 6th, 2026 ### The Illusion of Self-Made Success Take 2-3 minutes to quiet yourself and ask God to speak to you today through your devotional time.
