What's the difference between judgment and correction—and why does it matter in our walk with Christ?In this message, Pastor Matt Brummett  @TheMarinatedLife   explores how Scripture defines and differentiates judgment and correction. Using the stories of the Good Samaritan, Nathan and David, and Jesus' restoration of Peter, we contrast prideful condemnation with loving, biblical guidance.✅ Judgment tears down.✅ Correction builds up.✅ Judgment points a finger.✅ Correction offers a hand.We'll discuss how to reflect God's heart by correcting with grace not harshness and how to receive correction as a blessing, not a burden. This message calls believers to live with humility, love, and truth in every relationship.

In this powerful message, we continue our series on Living Hope Church's core values: Love, Discipleship, and Family. We explore what it truly means to not miss out on the spiritual blessings God offers through authentic relationships.Through the testimony of Jason Freeman grandson of Charles Manson, we witness how one man broke the chain of generational trauma through faith, love, and intentional discipleship. We also dive deep into the biblical story of Jacob, Joseph, and their family legacy, unpacking how dysfunction can be redeemed when one generation decides to follow God wholeheartedly.This message reminds us that curses can be broken, relationships can be restored, and no past is too dark for the light of Christ.

In this message, we explore what it truly means to receive comfort from the Holy Spirit, our promised Advocate and Helper. At Living Hope, our mission is to love authentically, disciple deeply, and live as a true church family. But have we been missing God's comfort in the process?Discover how:We often seek comfort in things that don't satisfy; phones, food, work, or distraction.The Holy Spirit is the only source of true comfort, promised by Jesus in John 14.God's nurturing heart is shown through powerful, maternal images in Scripture.Biblical figures like Hagar and Elijah were met by God in their wilderness moments with tender care and healing.The Holy Spirit not only comforts us individually but works through the church to bring healing and hope.We also take time for inner healing, reflecting on wounds related to motherhood and learning practical ways to daily invite the Comforter into our lives.

But instead of seizing the moment for personal gain, David chooses faith over fear, trusting in God's perfect timing.

The scripture encourages believers to prioritize gathering together as a community of faith. She emphasizes mutual consideration, provoking love and good works among believers, and not neglecting regular fellowship. She discusses how instruction is rooted in the historical practice of God's people gathering together for prayer, worship, and study, both in the Old Testament and in the early church. The local church, referred to as the "ecclesia" in the New Testament, is seen as vital for spiritual growth, mutual support, and the exercise of spiritual gifts. It's not just a physical gathering but a community where believers are nurtured, equipped, and held accountable under God-ordained leadership. Thus, the New Testament places a strong emphasis on the local church as a foundational aspect of Christian life and growth.
