Pastor Chris' Podcast

"Come Home to Cohutta" is more than a song about a town — it's a call from the Father's heart. It's an invitation to leave behind the noise, come home to love, and find peace in the place you truly belong.

In this message, I share how God equips us with His full armor so we can stand firm against the forces of darkness. I talk about each piece of the armor—the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit—and how prayer strengthens it all. My hope is to encourage you to live with courage, knowing victory is already assured in Christ.

Discover how God calls us out of darkness into His light, giving us identity, hope, and purpose as His chosen people.
