by Rev Charlie Lacey | John 8: 31-34, Galatians 5: 1-15John 8: 31-34, Galatians 5: 1-15 (NIV)The Apostle Paul makes it clear that if we want to get right with God, we need to put our faith in Jesus. Following religious rules will not lead anyone back to God. Jesus came to free us from religiosity, but more than that, he came to free us from sin and death, so that we might enjoy a relationship with God through Him.
In a world where many claim that all religions ultimately lead to the same God, this message examines the claims, teachings, and foundations of Christianity and Islam through the lives of Jesus and Muhammad. Looking at Scripture, history, and the central message of each faith, we explore the critical question every person must answer: Who is Jesus? Join us as we consider two men, two messages, two destinies, and the one decision that impacts eternity.

Have you ever heard someone say, “People can't change”?This week on The Alex McFarland Show, recorded at the NRB Conference in Nashville, Alex welcomes author Rose Ann Forte for a powerful conversation about true life transformation.Through Christ, the trajectory of a person's life can be completely rewritten. Past mistakes don't get the final word, and new purpose is always possible. Change may not be instant or easy, but with faith, perseverance, and surrender, God can shape something entirely new.Stay the course. Trust the process. Let Him work.Scriptures:John 15:5Philippians 4:131 Timothy 4:15John 8:34Proverbs 4:25Hebrews 12John 6:37Links:Alex McFarlandAsk AlexMy Relationship with God Free e-bookBook: The Assault on AmericaThe Cove - July 17-19 & 27-31Equip Retreat Camps United in Prayer DevotionalsBook: 100 Bible Questions and Answers on Prophecy and the End Times Speaking CalendarBook AlexFollow Alex on XGive OnlineAlex McFarland MinistriesP.O.

eries: God's Promises, Our JourneyTitle: "Will you trust God or take control?"Scripture: Genesis 22:1-24 NIV Hebrews 11:17-19James 1:13-15John 1:29Bottom line: “We handle God's tests by trusting His promises, obeying His voice, and relying on His provision.”INTRODUCTIONCONTEXTOUTLINECONCLUSIONDISCUSSION QUESTIONSNOTESYOUTUBE DESCRIPTIONMAIN REFERENCES USEDMy opening prayer: Lord God, help us grow to be and do like Jesus, while abiding in him and leading others to do the same. Bottom line: “We handle God's tests by trusting His promises, obeying His voice, and relying on His provision.”OPENING STORY/ILLUSTRATIONControl vs. TrustImagine you're riding in the passenger seat while someone else is driving…Not just anyone—your spouse, your friend, maybe even your child learning to drive.You're coming up to a busy intersection…You see the light turning yellow…And what do you instinctively do?You reach for the imaginary brake pedal.You lean forward.You tense up.Why?Because you're not in control.And when we're not in control… we feel insecure.That's not just true in a car.It's true in life.Every time we feel insecure, we reach for control.And every time we reach for control, we reveal what we really trust.In Genesis 22, God puts Abraham in the ultimate “passenger seat” moment.God asks him to do something that feels unthinkable… unreasonable… even unbearable.And the question becomes:Will Abraham trust God… or try to take control?CONTEXTThe thread is security. Last week we saw...Abraham seek security through deception (Gen 20)Abraham seek security through control (Gen 21:1–21)Abraham seek security through agreements (Gen 21:22–34)This week, we hope to see Abraham find true security as he learns to trust in God's promises, obey his voice, and rely on his provision.Why does God test us?To reveal what we really trust (pleasing God)To display His worth through our obedience (glorifying God)God tests us to deepen our trust in Him and display His worth through us.Because he's teaching us to trust him as our ultimate security when we're tempted to reach for control.How do we handle God's tests?By trusting his promises,Obeying his voice/word, and Relying on his provisionOr, more specifically…Expect tests from God (1-2)Focus on promises, not explanations (3-5)Depend on God's provision (6-14)Look forward to what God has for you (15-24)Bottom line: “We handle God's tests by trusting His promises, obeying His voice, and relying on His provision.”First, there's a difference between testing and tempting:Temptation (James 1:13–15):“When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.” James 1:13-15 NIVComes from within and from the enemy → aims to pull us away from God → exposes weakness.Testing (Genesis 22:1):“Some time later God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied.” Genesis 22:1 NIVComes from God → aims to draw us closer to Him → strengthens faith.Temptation is designed to make you fall. Testing is designed to make you stand.Consider how unreasonable God's test was as you consider how we might respond to his tests in our lives…OUTLINE (influenced by Warren Wiersbe & ChatGPT):We handle God's tests in life by:Trusting His promisesObeying His voice (word)Relying on His provisionExpect tests from God. (22:1-2) WW writes, “In the ‘School of Faith' we must have occasional tests, or we will never know where we are spiritually. Abraham had his share of tests right from the beginning.”“Family test” - leave nation, neighborhood and extended family and go“Famine test” - left Canaan and went to Egypt #FAIL“Fellowship test” - let Lot choose which way to go when they split up“Fight test” - rescued Lot and Sodom's citizens and stuff“Fortune test” - declined Sodom's wealth“Fatherhood test” - Sent Hagar & Ishmael away first time #FAIL“Farewell test” - Send Hagar and Ishmael away second timeOne test I faced was baptism. Another was my calling into ministry.Was “baptized” as an infant so didn't believe I needed to be baptized after my conversion; it took 2 pastors and 10 years for me to see the truthWas “called” into full-time ministry within a month or 2 of being baptized leaving successful career in EngineeringIf you walk with God, tests are not the exception—they are the curriculum.Focus on promises, not explanations (3-5) “Faith does not demand explanations; faith rests on promises.” -WW“Our faith is not really tested until God asks us to bear what seems unbearable, do what seems unreasonable, and expect what seems impossible.” -WWWhen God sends a test or trial, our first response is usually, “Why me?” Or “Why, Lord?” Instead of “What can I learn through this?”"Deliverance will get you out of Egypt. But surrender will get Egypt out of you." (Or Sodom, or Babylon, or America...)We live by promises, not by explanations. Abraham says, “We will worship and then we will come back” → implicit faith in resurrection (cf. Hebrews 11:17–19)Faith doesn't need to understand everything—it just needs to trust what God has said.If you wait for God to explain everything, you'll never obey anything.Depend on God's provision (6-14)Two statements reveal the emphasis in this passage:“God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering.” (8), &Yahweh Yireh, “The Lord will see to it.” (14) #provide“Where God guides, He pro-vides.” -Old PastorHow does God provide?Where…does the Lord provide? Where you sent you to walk in his will. Should we expect his provision when we don't walk in his steps?When? Right when it's needed. Sometimes at the last minute. He's never late.How? Often simply. He surprised Abraham with the ram in the thicket right next behind him.To Whom? To those who humbly walk with him. Why? For his pleasure and his glory!What kind of provision is available?Resurrection-powered provisionEphesians 1:19–20 & 3:20You don't experience God's provision sitting on the sidelines—you experience it on the path of obedience.Look forward to what God has after the test. (15-24) What comes after the test?New Approval (12) “Atta boy!”New Son (13-14) → Isaac received backIsaac likely never the same. God gave. Abraham gave back. God gave back.Don't let the gift replace the Giver—Abraham didn'tNew Assurances. (16-18) New names for an expanded future. (14; 23)Yahweh Yireh (14)Rebekah (23)God is already preparing the next chapter while you're still in the test.CONCLUSIONBottom line: “We handle God's tests by trusting His promises, obeying His voice, and relying on His provision.”How do we handle God's tests?By trusting his promises,Obeying his voice/word, and Relying on his provisionEvery test exposes what we trustEvery test invites surrenderEvery test reveals God's sufficiencyWhat is your Isaac?Are you trusting God—or trying to control the outcome?Ram → Lamb → GospelAbraham looks up…and there's a ram caught in the thicket.God provides a substitute.Isaac lives…because something else dies in his place.Pause. Let that sit.Expand the PatternThis moment isn't just about Abraham and Isaac.It's pointing forward.Another Father…another Son…another sacrifice.Connect to ChristIn John 1:29, we read:When John the Baptist saw Jesus, he said,“Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.”On that day in Genesis 22—God provided a ram.But one day—God would provide His own Son.⸻In Genesis 22…God stopped Abraham's hand.At the cross…God did not stop His own.Let that land. This is your emotional peak.⸻Why?Because our greatest problem isn't lack of control—it's sin.And our greatest need isn't control—it's a Savior.⸻So the question isn't just:“Will you trust God in the test?”The deeper question is:Will you trust the God who gave everything for you?⸻You don't have to control your life…because the God who tested Abrahamis the God who gave His Son for you—PrayQuestions (Write this down) - grab an index card and penWhat is God saying to you right now?

In this message, we explore the profound truth that our faith is often forged not on the mountaintops of miraculous provision, but in the dark, exhausting stretches of life's storms. Drawing from the account of Jesus walking on the water in John 6, we are reminded that Jesus sometimes purposefully sends us into difficult seasons—not to abandon us, but to stretch our spiritual muscles and challenge our limited comprehension of who He truly is. We see that when we reach the end of our own strength, having rowed until we are completely spent, Jesus reveals Himself as the great "I Am," transcending our natural paradigms and proving He is bigger than any circumstance we face. Pastor Carl's heart's desire for us is that we would not just admire Him from a distance or hold Him at arm's length, but willingly invite Him into the very boat of our lives, trusting that His presence transforms our journey and immediately brings us to the destination He has appointed for us.Referenced Scriptures:Psalm 40John 6:1-15John 6:16-21Psalm 23Exodus 3Psalm 107
In this powerful Lenten episode, we journey deeper into the heart of true fasting—not only through abstinence from food, but through the rich, life-changing practice of almsgiving. Drawing from the wisdom of Saint John Chrysostom, we discover that when bodily fasting feels impossible due to illness or weakness, God opens another beautiful door: richer charity, fervent prayer, and a heart reconciled to others.Beloved, almsgiving is no optional extra—it is an act of love, mercy, and compassion that mirrors the very heart of our Lord Jesus Christ. We explore how every kind deed done for the hungry, thirsty, stranger, naked, sick, or imprisoned is done directly unto Him (Matthew 25). Through Scripture and the Church's timeless teaching, we learn that charity flows from God's own grace, not from obligation or compulsion, and that joyful, bountiful giving reflects our identity as true followers of Jesus.Practical and Spirit-filled, this message encourages us to step out in faith—feeding the homeless, visiting the lonely, clothing the needy, and supporting mission work—all in the name of the One who first loved us. Whether you're in your final weeks of Lent or carrying these truths year-round, may this episode stir your heart to live the Gospel with open hands and a surrendered spirit.Glory be to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen.Bible verses referenced:Genesis 3Matthew 25:35-36Matthew 25:40Proverbs 19:17Romans 11:35Luke 17:102 Corinthians 9:6-7John 3:16Romans 5:81 John 3:1Galatians 3:26-27John 13:15John 13:351 Corinthians 11:1
Nicodemus seeks Jesus under cover of dark, and Jesus challenges Nicodemus to follow an Empire-defying Way in the light of day. When we step away from complicity with a violent and death-dealing Empire, when we emerge from the shadows of fear, when we embrace and embody God's lifegiving love for the whole darn world, we will find life abundant and eternal. And we will find that we are not alone.

This powerful message launches a 14-week deep-dive into one of the most foundational teachings in all of Scripture: the Ten Commandments. Whether you've known them for years or can barely name a few, this introductory sermon reveals why these commandments still matter, how they fit within the 613 Old Testament laws, and what Jesus meant when He summarized the entire law in only two commands—love God and love your neighbor (Matthew 22:36–40). You'll learn why there are actually two sets of “Ten Commandments,” what distinguishes the moral commandments from the ritual commandments, and why understanding both will strengthen the way you live out your faith each day.Through key passages like James 2:10, Exodus 34:1, Leviticus 18:4, John 14:15, and John 14:21, this message exposes how breaking even one commandment reveals our need for spiritual growth—and why God calls us to pursue obedience from a place of love, devotion, and daily surrender. You'll be challenged to evaluate your own life: Have you lied? Stolen? Taken the Lord's name in vain? Looked at someone or something with lust or covetousness? These everyday struggles show why studying God's commands is essential for every believer who desires genuine transformation.This sermon also emphasizes the importance of renewing your mind (Romans 12:2), digging into Scripture for yourself, and preparing your heart to receive deeper revelation from the Holy Spirit. By understanding the commandments more clearly, you'll gain greater confidence in your walk with Christ and become better equipped to share biblical truth with others. You'll discover how love—real, God-centered love—is the foundation for every command, and how practicing it daily positions you to grow in wisdom, maturity, and Christlike character.If you're ready to strengthen your faith, learn the truth about the Ten Commandments, and build a life grounded in God's Word, this message is the perfect place to begin. Join this series, study ahead, take notes, and allow God to shape you through His timeless truth.Referenced Verses: James 2:10Matthew 22:36-40Exodus 34:1Leviticus 18:4John 14:15John 14:21-Social Media Ministries, founded by Spencer Coffman, is committed to sharing the Word of God with the entire world.

We live between two great hopes. One who came thousands of years ago. One who is coming again. And a present hope that meets us right where we are.In this first week of Advent, Nathan Hanna walks us through the original blueprint of creation, the fracture that followed, and the promise that carried God's people through centuries of waiting. Hope came down in a manger. Hope is coming again in glory.

In this powerful conclusion to our Sermon on the Mount series, Pastor Aaron McRae explores Jesus' final teaching in Matthew 7:24–29 — the parable of the wise and foolish builders. Jesus challenges us to consider not just what we hear, but what we do with His words.Are we building our lives on a solid foundation — or on shifting sand? In a world full of loud voices and quick fixes, Jesus invites us to anchor our lives in Him and His Word. The storms of life are inevitable, but the foundation we choose determines whether we stand or fall.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || As we approach Easter Sunday, it's important to reflect on what brought Jesus to the cross in the first place. As Pastor Jerry reminded us on Sunday, even as far back as Genesis 15, God made a covenant with Abraham that He would be faithful to him and his descendants. We broke the covenant through our sin time and time again, and yet, God still held up his end of the bargain. Jesus and his sacrifice on the cross was the ultimate fulfillment of that covenant, and because of that, we could be restored! This Cross Sunday was a powerful reminder of just how much that Jesus endured for you and for me. || ABOUT BEACH CHURCH || We exist to reach, raise up, and release followers of Jesus who change the world. Our goal is to create an environment where everyone is welcome to learn about a relationship with God, whether you're curious or confident in your faith.|| GET CONNECTED || Here at Beach, we are most passionate about seeing people come into a relationship with Jesus!

God created an adversary to himself to achieve his purpose. Which is to instruct the whole of creation in righteousness. God actually created a being that was the total opposite of what he is but not equal to Him. Why? Because the created is never equal to the creator. But none the less, a being who was the total opposite of what is in God. And then God breathed life into that being and that being became the most evil thing in existence, and the Bible calls him Satan.Listen for more...For more Free books, Sunday teachings and bible studies or to make a love offering,, please visit us at: https://www.walkinginpower.orgThis program references scripture:Genesis 3:1Job 1Isaiah 14, 26:9, 54:161 John 3:8Ezekiel 28:15John 8:44Dr. Bern Zumpano is a Pastor and Teacher of the Word of God who has authored several books on Spirit-filled living through relationship with Jesus Christ and walking in the Power of the Holy Spirit. Bern has not only been a born-again believer for nearly the past 40 years, but also dedicated 31 years of his life to the study and clinical practice of medicine and surgery in the fields of psychiatry and brain surgery. He has held medical school professorships in psychiatry and neurosurgery and worked in private practice in both areas. Bern has an immense background in understanding the physical body, as well as the soul - the mind, will, and emotions - not only from a medical standpoint but also from a spiritual standpoint. With his background and training, he has been led by the Holy Spirit to teach "the Deep Things of God" (1 Cor. 2:10) with an emphasis on Spiritual Warfare (Jer. 51:20), Breaking Generations' Curses (Ex. 20:5; Lev. 26:40-44), walking in the Power of the Holy Spirit (John 14:12; 1 Cor. 4:20; Luke 17:21) and "the Restoration of All Things" (Acts 3:21). We at Word of Faith Ministries International-Miami hope and pray that these teachings of the Holy Spirit through Bern will edify and regenerate your spirit to gain a deeper understanding of God's Word and His truths so you can have a deeper and more intimate relationship with Him.

Series: Signs & GloryTitle: "Am I really born again?"Scripture: John 3:1-15John 2:23-25;Daniel 7:13-14; Ezekiel 36:25-27; Matthew 5:20, 48;Numbers 21:4-9; Isaiah 52:13Bottom line: No one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born from the above.INTRODUCTIONCONTEXTSERMON OUTLINECONCLUSIONNOTESOUTLINESQUESTIONS TO CONSIDER DISCUSSION QUESTIONSMAIN REFERENCES USEDMy opening prayer: Lord God, help us grow to be and do like Jesus, while abiding in him and leading others to do the same. INTRODUCTIONBorn again. What does that even mean?Sometimes you hear people say they are a "Born-again Christian" as if there is another kind; as if you could be a true Christian any other way. I get why people do that. Am I really born again? That's not a question I would've asked as a young man going to college: I thought I already was. After all, I'd done everything the church had asked me to do growing up: confirmation class, youth choir, Sunday school, youth group, acolyte, even the hand bell choir. I did everything my parents put me in, regarding the church. But I don't ever remember hearing the gospel and responding by grace through faith to the gospel. Maybe that was because I thought I was a Christian by doing all those good things. Well, I wasn't. Not yet.Let me just talk to the students right now for a minute. Many of you have grown up going to church and have done everything asked of you by the church and your parents. You've been active in youth group. You've gone to Sunday school or kids group, and attended church services. Maybe you've even been on a mission trip or gone to summer camp. Maybe you've even prayed a prayer and been baptized. Those are good signs, of course. But the evidence that you are truly a follower of Christ is seen in the fruit of your life and made effective in your life because you were born from above. Not because you grew up going to church and doing all the church stuff. The church stuff is designed to lay a foundation on which to build your own faith in Christ on. The church stuff is to strengthen those who have been born again to not only be right with God in position, but to become right with God in practice. To walk in step with God daily. And to want to do that.Like I said, I grew up in the church doing all the church stuff. And I thought I was a Christian. But I figured out I wasn't a good Christian when I met my future wife. We met in ninth grade and instantly became friends. We started dating our senior year in high school. I saw how she carried herself for those four years in high school--with consistent love and integrity. I met her family and got to see how she was raised; how she was loved by her family; how she was taught by her family in word and deed. I got a glimpse of her church life by going with her to her church a couple of times as well. I probably heard the gospel there for the first time at a lock-in. She was a huge part of me coming to the Christ. Because I don't think I trusted Christ going through confirmation class, I suspect that Anita and I dated before I was a believer. I always council against that whenever you know that to be true. But I was playing the part of a Christian. I knew what to say and do in general and enough to come across as a young immature Christian. And by God's grace, she bought it. Ha ha. Little did I know that I had a lot more to learn about what it means to truly know God, and have a relationship with him because of a supernatural birth from above. I experienced what it means to be born again when I stood at the end of the concert and received Jesus is my Lord and Savior because I just knew I was supposed to.Jesus said to Nicodemus, you must be born again. He said no one can see the kingdom of God, unless they are born again or born from above. My hope is today that you will understand and comprehend what that means today so that should you choose to surrender to Jesus Christ, that you will be born from above today if you haven't already.CONTEXTJohn is transitioning from Jesus's first week of public ministry to conversations between Jesus and individuals. This is framed around the idea that there is more than one kind of belief in Jesus.SERMON Willmington's OUTLINE Bible (JOHN 3):Jesus meets with Nicodemus and tells him in order to be saved, all people must be born again. John the Baptist tells his disciples that Jesus is the Messiah.1. JESUS EXPLAINS THE PLAN OF SALVATION (3:1-21): A man named Nicodemus visits Jesus by night.A. The credentials of Nicodemus (3:1): He is both a member of the Jewish Sanhedrin and a Pharisee.B. The confession of Nicodemus (3:2): He acknowledges that Jesus is from God because of his miracles.C. The command to Nicodemus (3:3): Jesus says he needs the new birth.D. The confusion of Nicodemus (3:4): He confuses spiritual birth with physical birth.E. The chastening of Nicodemus (3:9-13): Jesus chides him for not knowing these things even though he is a respected Jewish teacher.F. The clarification for Nicodemus (3:5-8, 14-15): Jesus employs three illustrations to explain the new birth to Nicodemus. (Cf. Ezekiel 36:25-28)1. A physical illustration (3:5-7): Unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.2. A natural illustration (3:8): Just as you don't know where the wind comes from or where it is going, so it is impossible to explain being born of the Spirit. Illustration: Imagine how crazy would be for wind to blow through a cemetery and bones to become living people again is no less dramatic than God transforming us from above.3. A scriptural illustration (3:14-15): As Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up.NEXT WEEK:G. The conclusion for Nicodemus (3:16-21): Jesus now summarizes both the subjects of salvation and condemnation!1. The persons (3:16)a. The Father gave his Son (3:16a).b. The Son will give his life (3:16b).CONCLUSIONBottom line: No one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born from above.What about you?Peter puts it all in perspective in his first sermon:““Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”” Acts 2:36-39 NIVInvitationHow do we respond? Answer 2 questions:Take out a card or piece of paper right now. Write down the answer to these questions: What is God saying to me right now?What am I going to do about it? Write this down on a sheet of paper. What I hear you saying, Lord, is ___________________.[my name] is going to believe/do __________________________________________________ as a result.Finally, share this with your Home or Mission group this week when you gather as a testimony about what God is doing in your life. You don't have to get too specific to give him praise.Lord's Supper, 1 Cor 11:23-26 is good passage.Also, say something like, "Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again." (past, present, and future)PrayNOTESFrom Lesslie Newbigin, p. 36:John 2:23-25"Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover feast, many believed in his name when they saw the signs which he did; but Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men and needed no one to bear witness of man; for he himself knew what was in man.The fact that Jesus performed many miracles of healing is assumed in all versions of the tradition. The synoptics devote much space to those which were performed in Galilee; John— without giving details-implies that Jerusalem was also the scene of such activity and states that as a result "many believed in his name." In the light of what is said in 1:12, where the same phrase is used, this might seem to be an extremely promising development in the mission of Jesus—an early and impressive example of successful evangelism. But it is not so. This belief is based upon "things that are seen"; it is not that faith which is a work of the Spirit who is not seen, and who comes—like the wind-as he will, and comes not from the solid ground below but from above. Jesus-who knows the heart and does not look on the outward appearance (I Sam. 16:7) —does not "believe in" them, even though they "believe in" him."OUTLINESOutline from Willmington's Outline Bible N/AQUESTIONS TO CONSIDERWhat do I want them to know?

Listener Question:@recipefordisaster asked:“Can I show the love of Christ but still harbor bitterness in my heart? Can the two coincide?”This episode tackles a profound and relatable question. Here's what we discuss:Can God Use Imperfect People?Yes! Scripture reminds us that no one is perfect (1 John 1:8). God used imperfect, flawed people throughout history—and He can use us, too.Can God Use Rebellious People?While God can use anyone, He often chooses those who choose to follow Him (Matthew 16:24). A heart of humility and surrender is key to being fully used by Him (James 4:6).The Danger of Bitterness:Resentment is deceptive. As St. Augustine said, “Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.”Bitterness, described as a root in Hebrews 12:15, doesn't just harm you—it defiles those around you.The Power of Forgiveness:Jesus offers forgiveness, which abolishes bitterness. We forgive not because others deserve it, but because Christ has forgiven us (Hebrews 12:1-2).Forgiveness is the antidote to bitterness and the key to freedom, grace, and peace in Christ.Practical Help:Clingy sins like bitterness can be difficult to shed. That's why God gave us the church—a community of believers to run alongside us in the race of faith.If you're struggling, find a godly mentor or friend to help you forgive and let go of bitterness.

In this episode, we explore what it means to truly follow Christ, explaining the teachings of Romans 1-8. We begin by understanding our full position in Christ (Romans 1-6) and how that leads us into the challenging "valley" experience described in Romans 7. It's in this valley that we learn the importance of surrender—letting go of self-help and self-reliance. This surrender then guides us to a place of protection and security in Christ, where we rely fully on Him. We also discuss how following Christ brings us to this place of surrender and how it connects leads use to protection. Scripture References Romans 1-8 2 Corinthians 4:15John 15:5John 6:63
