#LovelikeChrist #BrideofChrist Who would you die for? And are we willing to love like Christ loves? In this message by Pastor Alex Klimchuk, we were reminded of the incredible love Christ has for His Church, a love so great that He gave His life for her. We have been saved, forgiven, adopted, and married into the family. Ephesians 5:25-31, 1 Corinthians 1:26-27, Ezekiel 16:1-14, Jude 1:3-44 ✨ Don't forget to LIKE, COMMENT, & SUBSCRIBE!

No perdamos la oportunidad de entrar a la celebración de Dios; no malgastemos el don que Dios nos ha dado; en cambio, pongamos nuestra fe en acción y sirvamos a otros en el nombre de Dios. (Mateos 25)
What is the Church Jesus is actually building? In this message, Tim explores one of the great biblical themes that runs from Genesis to Revelation: the House of God. While we've often understood the Church through the lens of the ecclesia, this message introduces another equally important picture — God's house — and asks what that really means. My House - Sunday 12th July 2026_transcript.docx Beginning with Jesus cleansing the Temple in Mark 11, we discover that His passion wasn't centred on religious activity or programmes, but on something far deeper. “My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations.” Throughout Scripture, from Jacob's encounter at Bethel, to the Tabernacle in the wilderness, to Solomon's Temple and the prophetic words of Haggai, the same pattern continues to emerge. God's desire has always been to dwell among His people. His house is the place where heaven touches earth, where His name rests, and where His presence is made known. Tim unpacks how that pattern finds its fulfilment under the New Covenant. The house God is building is no longer a physical building, but a people. Together, we are becoming His dwelling place, a people who carry His presence into the world. This message is also a call to recalibrate our understanding of what success looks like as a church. If we measure ourselves by programmes, activity or numbers, we'll miss the very thing God is most passionate about. But if we become a people who know how to host His presence, who make room for His glory, and who build our lives around His heart, then we are cooperating with what He has always been building. More than anything, this message is an invitation to become the kind of people among whom God delights to dwell. Because the House of God has never simply been a place where people gather. It is the place where heaven and earth meet, where His presence is welcomed, and where the King of Glory makes His home among His people.

Many churches appear healthy on the outside—packed services, busy calendars, thriving ministries, and strong reputations. But what if Jesus sees something entirely different?In Revelation 3, Jesus confronts the church in Sardis with one of the most sobering statements in Scripture:"You have a reputation for being alive, but you are dead."How does a church drift from spiritual vitality to spiritual complacency? Why do only a few believers remain faithful when compromise becomes the norm?In this episode of The Caffeinated Christian, Mike and Ryan unpack seven warning signs of a compromised church, including cultural accommodation, spiritual complacency, leadership failures, tolerated sin, and the danger of replacing genuine devotion with religious activity.This isn't a call to criticize churches—it's a call to examine ourselves.Are we settling for reputation, or pursuing reality?CHAPTERS:00:00 What If Jesus Visited Your Church?01:15 Introduction & The Church in Sardis04:00 Sign #1: Reputation Replaces Reality08:00 Sign #2: Spiritual Complacency Goes Unchallenged12:00 Sign #3: Cultural Accommodation Replaces Holiness18:00 Sign #4: Outward Activity Masks Inward Emptiness23:00 Sign #5: Sin Is Tolerated Rather Than Confronted28:00 Sign #6: Leadership Fails to Cultivate Vigilance33:00 Sign #7: Corporate Identity Over Personal Devotion36:00 How Churches Can Recover38:00 Warning, Invitation & Final Thoughts Hosted on Acast.

Pastor Tim Gibb Lead Pastor Stand Alone Message May 31, 2026 AM
The Church is meant to be a Spirit-empowered movement, not just a place to attend. How can we rediscover Jesus' original vision for the Church? The post What Is the Church? Jesus' Original Vision (And How We Lost It) [So what about…?, part 6] appeared first on Crosscreek Community Church: A Church FOR People..
Faithfulness matters more than popularity. We often measure success by growth and approval… Jesus measures it by faithfulness. Most of us live reacting to what we can see. The headlines, the pressure, the chaos, the tension all around us. But what if what's visible isn't the full story? The Unseen Reality invites us to look beyond the surface and wrestle with a deeper question: what's actually happening behind what's happening? Because if we only interpret life through what's in front of us, we'll misread everything. Our circumstances, our purpose, even the presence of God. Through the book of Revelation, we're not chasing speculation. We're uncovering clarity. This series pulls back the curtain to reveal a spiritual reality where Jesus is present and active, where God is still on the throne, and where our lives are part of something far bigger than we often realize. As we learn to see clearly, we move from confusion to conviction and from fear to confidence, and we begin to live with a perspective that changes how we see everything. In these six weeks, we're not trying to decode every symbol or timeline. We're learning how to see clearly.

“Why does God call sinners to grace and not the damned?” This question raises important theological discussions about divine mercy and justice. Other topics addressed include how Catholics believe they can attain heaven, the procession of the Holy Spirit, and the significance of choosing a saint’s name for baptism. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 03:20 – Catholicism doesn't make sense to me because it says God moves a sinner to repentance by grace and yet he doesn't do that for the damned. If God were all-loving, then wouldn't he move the damned to repentance and forgive them? 13:28 – How do Catholics make it to heaven? 16:50 – Why do we say the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and Son and why do the Orthodox disagree? 22:44 – If this is the Church Jesus founded, how is it that the Church has done so much evil in Canada, the crusades? 45:33 – I'm getting baptized this Saturday. What is the meaning of picking a saint’s name for baptism? 52:30 – Why go to general confession and why repeatedly confess the same sins over and over again?
Hello, hello, and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. Hey, this week we are talking about John chapter 17, and Alex thinks this passage is one of the more important, pivotal moments in the book of John, where he starts to shift towards the rubber meeting the road, the church being the church, and the commission that God gives the church. And today's episode, we're gonna talk about the messiness of how that's actually played out throughout human history. The church seems to be off the rails so much of the time. We're not unified oftentimes, and why does God do these things in and through the church? We discussed some of that messiness, and yet, maybe hold on to this hope that the church is still a beautiful thing in the world. Let's dive right in.
Who Do You Say Jesus Is? If someone asked you today, "Who is Jesus to you—personally?"… how would you answer? In this week's message from our Journey of Stones series, Pastor Vicki Harrison challenges us with one of the most important questions Jesus ever asked. This isn't about what others believe—it's about what you believe. Be sure to watch the full service video below or listen through the sermon audio player as you reflect on this life-defining truth. The Question That Changes Everything In Matthew 16, Jesus asks His disciples: "Who do you say I am?" It's a question that cuts through assumptions, traditions, and secondhand faith. We often rely on: What our family believes What culture says What the church teaches But Jesus makes it personal. Your faith cannot be borrowed. Your answer cannot be outsourced. At some point, every follower of Jesus must answer this question for themselves. A Bold Confession, Not a Safe Answer When the disciples hesitate, Peter speaks up: "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God." This wasn't a safe or easy statement—it was bold, risky, and deeply personal. To say this meant: Jesus is Savior — the only one who forgives sin Jesus is Lord — the one who leads every part of your life Jesus is God — not just a teacher, but divine Jesus is Creator — over all people, not just those we agree with Pastor Vicki reminds us that too often, we settle for vague or silent faith. But Jesus isn't asking for safe answers—He's calling for clear, courageous confession. Your Faith Is a Stone in God's Church Jesus responds to Peter: "On this rock I will build my church…" The "rock" is not just Peter—it's his confession of faith. Every believer who boldly declares Jesus as Lord adds another "stone" to the foundation of the Church. From Peter… to the early church… to generations of faithful disciples… to you. Your faith matters. Your voice matters. Your witness matters. It's Time to Stand and Be Counted Pastor Vicki gives a clear challenge: Vague is no longer enough. Lukewarm is no longer acceptable. The world needs bold, authentic followers of Jesus. Your family needs it Your coworkers need it Your neighbors need it Your children and grandchildren need it And the church needs it too. So the question remains: Who do you say Jesus is—and are you willing to say it out loud? Take Your Next Step What would it look like for you to boldly live out your faith this week? Share your story with someone Speak openly about your faith Surrender an area of your life to Jesus as Lord Join a Group and grow with others Know Jesus. Grow Faith. Go Multiply. At New Hope, we believe faith is more than belief—it's a life of discipleship. Know Jesus — personally and deeply Grow Faith — through community and obedience Go Multiply — by boldly sharing your faith This is how God builds His Church—one life, one confession, one "stone" at a time.

Following Jesus was never meant to stop with us.In this message, “You're Supposed to Make Disciples,” we look at Jesus' words in Matthew 28 and the mission He gave every believer: “Go and make disciples of all nations.”Jesus didn't die to create passive church attenders—He died to raise up disciple makers. The call of every Christian is not only to grow in faith, but to help others grow as well.In this sermon, you'll hear about:Why every believer is called to make disciplesHow following Jesus naturally leads to helping others follow HimWhy you don't have to be “perfect” or know everything to start discipling someoneThe four simple steps that help anyone become a disciple makerHow living out your faith becomes the greatest witness to othersWe gather to worship, grow in our faith, and then go into the world with the Gospel. Because the Church Jesus builds is not just a place people attend—it's a movement of people who follow Him and help others do the same.The question isn't whether you're growing in your faith.The question is: Are you helping someone else grow too?

On this Ash Wednesday, February 18, 2026, join Doug Billings on The Right Side for a powerful 15-minute deep dive into the true meaning of Ash Wednesday and Lent.Whether you're Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical, or simply feeling the call of faith today, discover why the ashes on your forehead are straight from Scripture – from Job and Daniel to Nineveh and Jesus Himself – and how this 2,000-year-old practice is more relevant in 2026 than ever.Doug addresses head-on the “pagan roots” critics who claim Lent, Ash Wednesday, and even the Christmas tree are corrupted because of ancient origins. With charity and firmness, he dismantles the myths (including Alexander Hislop's debunked The Two Babylons), explains how the Church Jesus founded on Peter redeems culture for Christ, and shows why these traditions bear beautiful fruit today.Plus: the explosive 2026 faith revival among young men (Barna data), practical Lent tips for prayer, fasting, and almsgiving, and a hopeful message that the same Jesus who started His Church is still in charge – even with an American Pope calling the world to renewal.This encouraging standalone episode is perfect for anyone seeking real hope on Ash Wednesday 2026.If this blessed you, subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and share it with someone who needs to hear that you are dust… but you are beloved dust, and the Cross always wins.Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and everywhere podcasts are found.Full video version on YouTube: @TheRightSideDougBillings#AshWednesday2026 #Lent2026Support the show
