The Algorithm Knows What You LikeBut Does Anybody Know Who You Are?
We know more about people than ever before.
Where they vacationed. What they ate. What their kids are doing.
And yet…
Knowing someone’s updates isn’t the same as knowing their heart.
The algorithm knows what you like. It knows what keeps you scrolling. It might even know what you’ll buy next.
But it doesn’t know what you’re carrying.
And neither do most of the people watching your life.
Connected is not the same thing as known.
How Can Everything Be Perfect and Yet “Not Good”?
No sin. No shame. No broken world.
Adam has paradise, purpose, and an unbroken relationship with God.
And still, not good.
REST IS THE EVIDENCE OF FAITH
That’s the uncomfortable wisdom of Sabbath.
You stop while you still have more to give.
You leave something unfinished.
You close the laptop while another email is waiting.
And you discover something remarkable:
The world keeps turning.
Perhaps stopping is an act of faith.
It’s admitting:
I am not God.
You Can’t Decide Your Way Into a Future You Can’t See
Most people don’t have a decision problem.
They have a vision problem.
The Internet Put Joseph Z on Trial. The Bible Just Acquitted Him.
Darren Stott exposes the shallow, clickbait-driven culture of what he calls the “Exposure Discernment Ministry” (EDM) — a growing online movement that turns Christian scandal, tragedy, and prophetic controversy into algorithm-fueled fear porn for views and engagement. Using the backlash against Joseph Z and his prophetic word to Joni Lamb as a case study, Darren argues that many modern discernment personalities fundamentally misunderstand New Testament prophetic ministry, flatten symbolic prophetic language into hyper-literal accusations, and weaponize public shame in the name of biblical accountability. The article challenges the theological framework behind much of modern internet discernment culture, contrasting it with the biblical purpose of prophecy in the New Testament: edification, exhortation, and comfort.

Ibogaine Treatment for Addiction: Benefits, Risks, and What No One Tells You

The Power of Almost Nothing
In this article, Pastor Darren explains that transformation doesn’t start with certainty—it starts with willingness.
Using the image of a mustard seed, he shows that even the smallest step of faith is enough to shift your life. Faith isn’t about size, but direction. When you trust God, even a little, everything begins to change.
You don’t need more—you just need to start.
The One Step Program
In this article, Pastor Darren Stott explains what separates Christianity from every other religion. While most religions teach that people must reach God through effort, morality, discipline, and spiritual achievement, the gospel tells a completely different story: God reached us first through Jesus Christ. Drawing from Romans 10 and Ephesians 2, Pastor Darren shows that salvation is not earned but received as a gift of grace. He also challenges believers to remember that the seed of the gospel must be planted if there is to be a harvest, reminding readers that the message of Christianity is not about climbing a ladder to God—but receiving the rescue He has already provided.
