Today as we celebrate Independence Day and our nation's freedom, let us also thank God for the greatest freedom we have in His son Jesus Christ. We pray you have a safe and joyful Fourth of July! 🇺🇸 "So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." – John 8:36

This Father’s Day, we honor the fathers, father figures and mentors who lead with wisdom, strength and Christlike love. Thank you for all that you do. Happy Father’s Day!

Today, we honor Juneteenth and celebrate freedom. We remember the strength, courage and resilience of those who came before us and continue to pursue abundant life—here and for eternity.

Thank you to all of the moms and mother figures in our lives who have shown us love, protection, guidance and sacrifice. We love you and pray a special blessing over you today. Happy Mother’s Day!

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade.” 1 Peter 1:3-4 Christ is risen!

On Good Friday, we pause to praise God for His powerful, sacrificial love and to reflect on the immeasurable cost of our salvation. Today is a day of deep gratitude, humility, and awe for what was given so that we might have abundant life (John 10:10). Thank you Jesus!

“So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” 1 John 4:16 Today we celebrate the greatest love of all—the love of God that never fails. 💗

A new year begins with the same faithful God. We are thankful for His mercy, His provision and the lives being shaped through His love every day at By The Hand. Wishing you a joyful and hope-filled New Year! 🧡✨

“The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light.” Isaiah 9:2 Christmas at By The Hand is full of wonder, laughter and the joy of knowing Jesus. Merry Christmas from all of us at By The Hand to you! 🧡✨🎄
