From Failure to Restoration Apr 22, 2026

Show notes

Is there a mistake in your past that you just can’t seem to move beyond?

In today’s episode, host Lauren Alessi invites us to walk alongside Peter, one of Jesus’ disciples, as we uncover the transformation from failure to restoration. Together, we’ll explore how Peter’s denial didn’t define him and how Jesus’ love and resurrection created a safe place for true redemption and renewed purpose. We’ll see how the countless ways we fall short do not have to be the end of our story, and we’ll discover how God wants to redeem our past for a brighter, hopeful future.

Join our community in devotion and prayer as we surrender our failures to God, trusting Him to turn them into restoration and purpose.

What does real authority look like in our daily lives?

In today’s episode, Rachelle Alessi brings us into the heart of what it means for Jesus to show His authority and how we can walk in that same power. Together, we’ll explore the qualities Jesus modeled during His most challenging week (surrender, self-control, perseverance, and deep love) and how these open the door to living under God’s unstoppable authority.

Let’s unite in prayer and devotion as a community, seeking the courage to surrender and the confidence to walk boldly in the authority God gives.
