Walking by the Spirit begins with humility - recognizing it's not about what people do for God, but what God does through them.

In this episode of Conversations, the team dives into Acts 18 and the message Run to Win, exploring what it looks like to follow Jesus with endurance, purpose, and trust.

The conversation highlights the importance of abiding in Christ, running the race with trusted teammates, and recognizing when God opens (or closes) doors. Through stories, Scripture, and practical wisdom, this episode reminds listeners that God is always at work, often in unexpected ways, and invites each of us to run our race with faithfulness and surrender.

Acts 17 shows how the gospel demands a response—some believe, others resist. Paul's message reveals a God who wants to be known and challenges us to ask: Who's on the throne of my life? The episode encourages daily devotion, spiritual discipline, and a heart that aches for others to know Jesus.

As we step into a new year, we return to Acts 13 and are reminded that a Spirit-filled life isn't about talent, volume, or ambition—it's about abiding in Christ. In this conversation, we explore what it means to live set apart, cultivate healthy spiritual habits, and hold humility and boldness together. From scripture memorization to confronting selfish ambition, this episode invites us to slow down, listen to the Holy Spirit, and let God shape our habits before our habits shape us. When we empty ourselves of noise, offense, and entitlement, God faithfully fills us with His presence—and that's where real transformation begins.

Capping off the Christmas series, this episode explores what it really means to receive God's love—and what gets in the way.
