Are you stuck in the cycle of trying to earn God's grace? Or maybe you've swung the other way, putting in no effort at all? What if grace wasn't opposed to effort—just earning? In this message, Ben Foote unpacks how he's learning (slowly) to rest in God's love while putting in real effort to follow Jesus. He shares two game-changing habits that have made his relationship with God more real than ever—no more grind, just grace. If you're tired of striving or coasting, this one's for you.
Have you ever felt the ache of waiting—longing for something good that seems just out of reach? That feeling is at the heart of the Christmas story, a tale rooted in the hope and anticipation of God's people. For 400 years, during a period known as the Intertestamental Period or "The Silent Years," God's people clung to a promise of a Messiah who would rescue, restore, and dwell among them. In this video, we'll step into their shoes, explore the historical silence, and discover the profound truth of Christmas: the fulfillment of God's ultimate desire to be with us through the birth of Jesus. Join us as we unpack how this truth can transform our understanding of Christmas—and of God's love for us.
We explore why the idea of building authentic community can feel intimidating and why many of us hesitate when it comes to being authentic. The discussion delves into the distinction between authenticity and counterfeit living, highlighting how our modern, social media-driven world often promotes a curated, artificial version of ourselves. We examine how true relationships require vulnerability and how difficult it can be to maintain authenticity both online and in real life. With references to biblical teachings, especially the metaphor of “whitewashed tombs,” the video encourages us to embrace our real, flawed selves, as seen through the lens of Jesus' teachings, and challenges us to choose authenticity with God and with others.
This week as we continue our study through the book of Romans, we explore Romans 8:12-17 to uncover the transformative reality of being God's children. How can understanding our identity as God's sons and daughters help us overcome fear and shame in our lives?-------New to Hope or looking to get connected, click here: https://gethope.net/next/Subscribe to our Hope newsletter here: https://gethope.net/enews/If you've just made a decision for Christ, please respond here: https://touchpoint.gethope.net/OnlineReg/2044To support this ministry financially, click here: https://gethope.net/give/Stay Connected with Hope: Website: https://gethope.net/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gethopecommunitychurchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/get_hope/Twitter: https://twitter.com/get_hopeYouTube: https://youtube.com/c/HopeCommunityChurchSubscribe to Our Podcast - Hope In Real Life with Jason GoreYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HopeInRealLifeSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7eifzI0r9uY8rUaBMGs7q1Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hope-in-real-life-with-jason-gore/id1691710678?uo=4
Today, we're concluding our series, "Everyone Has a Story Worth Telling," with a powerful message about the significance of your personal story. You might think your story is too messy or insignificant to share, but it's precisely these stories that can connect, inspire, and offer hope. When Jesus transforms our lives, our stories become beacons of light in a dark world. Don't hide your light; let your story shine. Even the Apostle Paul, despite his past and ongoing struggles, shared his journey openly. Embracing our brokenness allows Jesus' grace to work through us, showcasing His power in our weaknesses. So, get real, be vulnerable, and share your story. Your journey, with all its thorns, is a testament to the transformative power of Jesus' love and grace.

He explains that worship is more than just singing songs; it's really about listening to God every day and doing what He asks. Just like an axe is crucial in a survival situation for building and staying warm, worship is just as important in our spiritual lives. It helps us stay close to Jesus and makes our faith strong, so we can truly thrive as followers of God.

Some say there are many ways to heaven, and many believe that one must find his/her own way unique to them. But, although there are many paths to Jesus, Jesus boldly claims that He is the only way to heaven. Weekly Verse:Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life.

Starter What is a nickname you had as a kid? How did you feel about it? Discuss How can we pray for you and/or your family? Spend some time praying together before you start your Scripture discussion. Scripture Read Genesis 1 and discuss: What is the most striking thing to you about the description of creation in Genesis 1? What does this passage tell you about your identity? Why do you think that is significant? In your own words, what does it mean to be created in the image of God? What other places have you looked to find your identity or value other than God? Assign each of the following verses to different people in your group to read out loud together. Have everyone listen for a truth about their identity that is most significant to them in this season of their life. Isaiah 43:1, Psalm 139:13-14, Deuteronomy 7:6, Romans 5:7-9, Ephesians 2:8-10, Galatians 5:1 Which of these verses is most significant to you in this season of your life? Why? Apply Before you close your group, break up into groups of 2-3 to share and pray together about the following questions. How do you need to embrace the truth of what God says about you? What is a lie about yourself you need to let go of to believe what God says? Spend time praying together as the Holy Spirit leads to build your lives on the truth of God's Word and what He says about you.
Glorious isn't a word we use too often—it's reserved for things that are special and powerful. In week three of the series, guest teacher Ben Foote explains how truly believing God is glorious has the power to conquer all fear.
