This May, we’re exploring faith and mental health through Scripture and the music of Imagine Dragons. Their lyrics—featured in songs like "Demons," "Thunder," and "Whatever It Takes"—give honest voice to struggles with identity, pain, and resilience.

Lead singer Dan Reynolds has spoken openly about living with depression, anxiety, and chronic illness, saying:

“There’s nothing weak about struggling with mental health. The strongest thing you can do is keep going.”

Each Sunday, we’ll reflect on these themes through a spiritual lens, discovering how God meets us in our fear, fuels our healing, and calls us beloved—exactly as we are.

  • May 4: "What We Carry: Grace for the Haunted" – We reflect on the internal "demons" we carry — shame, regret, or fear — and the God who feeds us anyway. Inspired by John 21 and Imagine Dragons’ “Demons,” we affirm: healing begins when we are honest about what hurts.
  • May 11: "Held in the Noise: Whatever It Takes to Keep Going" – When the world is too loud and our minds are full, the Shepherd calls us by name. Drawing from John 10 and “Whatever It Takes” by Imagine Dragons, we reflect on resilience, survival, and divine care.
  • May 18: Lay Reflection - Karen Harkovich, "Instruction Booklet Not Included"
  • May 25: "Born for More: Thunder and the Promise of Peace" – Christ offers a peace the world cannot give—peace rooted in presence, resilience, and Spirit. With John 14 and Imagine Dragons’ “Thunder,” we claim our identity as beloved, bold, and born for more.
