If you've ever felt like something deeper is going on behind the scenes of your pain or oppression, this message is for you.

In this final episode of our four-week series, we dive deep into the transformative reality of the Kingdom of God. Over the past weeks, we've explored: The Good News of the Kingdom: More than forgiveness, it offers a better, more fulfilling life. Kingdom Principles: Unlike earthly kingdoms, God's kingdom is rooted in love, humility, and servanthood. Biblical Glimpses: From the Exodus to King David to Isaiah's prophecy, the Old Testament points to the coming kingdom. This week, we ask: What if our prayer, “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” was answered? Imagine waking up tomorrow to a world where heaven has come to earth. What would your life look like? How would your relationships, work, and daily routines change? Join us as we reflect on the hope and joy found in a kingdom already planted in our hearts. Salvation isn't just about reaching heaven; it's about heaven reaching into us.

In this episode, we dive into what makes the Kingdom of God so unique. Unlike worldly kingdoms that rely on power, wealth, and borders, God's kingdom is built on humility, service, and love—and it's without end. Through the story of Exodus, we see God's eternal reign at work, delivering the Israelites from bondage and establishing a kingdom that transcends time. We're reminded that, as followers of Jesus, we are called to live out kingdom values, representing our King with courage and compassion. Tune in to discover how God's kingdom is woven through all of scripture and what it means for us today!

In this week's message, we dive deeper into what it truly means to be part of the Kingdom of God. Last week, we began reframing our understanding, shifting from what the Kingdom isn't to what it is. With key passages from Matthew and John, we'll explore how Jesus taught us not only to pray for the Kingdom but to prioritize it above everything else in our lives. Key Topics Covered: Praying for the Kingdom: In the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6), Jesus invites us to pray for God's Kingdom to be realized here and now—in our homes, at work, and in our communities. Making the Kingdom a Priority: As Jesus reminds us in Matthew 6:33, we're called to "seek first the Kingdom of God." Discover how we can put this into practice daily. Citizenship in the Kingdom: Just as earthly citizenship has its rights and responsibilities, so does our citizenship in God's Kingdom. John 3 emphasizes the significance of being "born again" and entering this Kingdom as a new creation. Being a part of God's Kingdom is more than a title; it's a life of purpose, blessings, and responsibilities. Whether you're exploring faith or a committed believer, this message sheds light on the powerful role you play in God's Kingdom.

In "Recalibrating the Kingdom," we explore what it means to refocus on Kingdom principles and purpose.

In this message, we dive into one of the smallest muscles of the body, yet one of the most powerful and impactful — the tongue. The words we speak can cause immense damage or bring incredible peace, and today we're reflecting on how vital it is to "Watch Your Mouth." Drawing from James 3, we explore the power our words hold in directing, destroying, or developing lives. Join us as we consider what our words reveal about who we truly are and seek guidance on how to use our tongues as tools for blessing and ministry.
