Jesus redefines greatness through humility, showing that true honor in the kingdom comes not from position but from service. His life becomes the model of sacrificial love — the Son of Man who came not to be served but to serve. What if the greatest among us are those who quietly serve others first?

And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.” — Romans 8 : 9Recorded live here in London, England with Reverend Ben Cooper.At 12 P.M., as the world moves fast, Romans 8 : 9 calls us back to the quiet strength of the Spirit. We belong not to fear, but to freedom in Christ. Across South Africa, Sweden, the United States and India, believers are rediscovering life in the Spirit. The same Spirit that raised Jesus lives in every follower today. Sin cannot rule where the Spirit reigns; guilt cannot stand where grace abides. This hour we rise to live as those who are truly free in Jesus.Paragraph 1 – Context Paul reminds the Church that life in Christ is not powered by human effort but by the Holy Spirit. The Spirit makes us alive, breaks the hold of sin, and restores identity.

In this final episode of the series on the Fruit of the Spirit, Dan Holland wraps it all up with one powerful truth: the Spirit-filled life isn't about trying harder—it's about abiding deeper in Christ. From John 15 and Psalm 1, we're reminded that a life rooted in Jesus naturally produces the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. The secret to lasting transformation isn't willpower; it's connection. When we stay planted in the Word of God, the Spirit does the growing.Discover how abiding in Jesus changes what “spills out” when life bumps you—and how the Holy Spirit produces fruit that lasts.If you are interested in starting a micro church or hosting a small group in your home with like-minded individuals, we've got you covered.

In chapter seven, the Apostle Paul has declared, "the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good" (7:12). The problem is that a person is weak through the flesh. His sinful nature is incapable of keeping the law. Chapter eight introduces the law of the Spirit. "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death" (8:2). Jesus told Nicodemus, "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, 'You must be born again'" (John 3:6,7). When a person is born "of the Spirit," he takes on a new nature. A person who is "born again" has a new nature, but he wrestles with the old nature as Paul descriptively shows in Romans 7:13-25). In Romans 8:5-12, Paul contrasts the law of the flesh and the law of the Spirit. There are two natures and two "mindsets." One leads to destruction and the other to life and peace.

Life In The Spirit sermon seriesRomans 8: 31-32

Everyone wants to win the race—but not everyone is willing to train for it. In this week's podcast, Dan Holland explores the final fruit of the Spirit, self-control, and explains why it's essential for finishing strong in life and faith. Using 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 and Galatians 5:22-25, this episode looks at what it means to live with focus, discipline, and purpose amid a world full of distractions. You'll learn that spiritual self-control isn't about willpower—it's about Spirit power—learning to say “no” to what diverts you and “yes” to what matters most. Discover how to train intentionally, manage your desires, and finish well—because spiritual endurance comes not from good intentions but from daily, purposeful choices. If you are interested in starting a micro church or hosting a small group in your home with like-minded individuals, we've got you covered.

1 Corinthians 12:20-26

This week, we explore the various gifts that the Holy Spirit gives to the church, and the call to pursue love, desire spiritual gifts, and fan into flame the gifts that God gives us. 

What exactly is the mission of the universal church? We'll be in Romans 8:9-17 to find out.

Real strength doesn't shout—it restores. In this week's Podcast, Dan Holland unpacks the fruit of the Spirit called gentleness…not weakness, but strength under control. Through Galatians 6:1–10, Dan shows how true gentleness is power used wisely…to lift others up rather than tear them down. You'll also see how Jesus modeled perfect gentleness: calming a crowd ready to stone a woman (John 8), telling Peter to put away his sword in Gethsemane, and forgiving his executioners from the cross. That's divine strength, perfectly restrained. You'll learn how to let the Spirit shape your responses so that what “spills out” of your life brings restoration instead of destruction.If you are interested in starting a micro church or hosting a small group in your home with like-minded individuals, we've got you covered.

1 Corinthians 12:12-20 - Matt Cole

This week, we look at 1 Corinthians 12 and 13. What does Scripture say about spiritual gifts? 

God's grace invites all, equalizes the undeserving, and calls us to serve it forward. Stop comparing, start marveling, and live faithfully in His kingdom.

This is a live recorded message from Sunday service at City of Refuge South in Thomaston, GA. Thanks for listening. We pray it blesses you!

1 Corinthians 12:7-11

How do the fruit of the Spirit grow in our lives? This week, we explore Galatians 5:16-26 and what Paul says about walking by the Spirit. 

Life in the Spirit means putting everything on the altar and trusting that nothing surrendered to God is ever wasted.

In Galatians 5, Paul lists goodness as one of the fruits of the Spirit—but this isn't just about being nice. In today's episode of the C3 podcast, Pastor Dan Holland shows how biblical goodness is active, sacrificial, and rooted in God's own character. When we stay connected to the Spirit, goodness naturally flows from our lives into the lives of others. Tune in and be encouraged to let God's goodness grow in you.If you are interested in starting a micro church or hosting a small group in your home with like-minded individuals, we've got you covered.

Life in the Spirit means coming freely to Jesus—unhindered by pride, shame, or striving—and helping others do the same.

1 Corinthians 12:1-6

This week, we take a look at 2 Corinthians 3:1-18 and the transformation that is available through the Holy Spirit. 

This week, we look at the passage in John 16 which explains that the Holy Spirit is the one who will convict the world of sin, righteousness and judgment. 

This week, we look at the Holy Spirit's role as our teacher.

Walking in the Spirit is always about drawing nearer to Jesus and making his name greater than our own. Pastor Nathan Potter continues our series through Acts with sermon from Acts 8:14-25.

Romans 7:6 — What makes Christians different from others is that they have been granted a new mind and new desires by the Holy Spirit. This new life in Christ puts believers in a new relationship to the law of Moses as now the law is written upon the heart of every believer. This creates a heart of worship that is not focused on the externals of religious acts, but on the orientation of the heart. True worship flows out of a heart renewed and freed from the curse of the law and the power of sin and flesh. In this sermon on Romans 7:6 titled “Life in the Spirit,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones is emphatic that this new relationship to the law does not bring about antinomianism since all of God's commands are good and just. It means that Christ fulfilled the law and gives believers a new heart that has new desires. The end of the law is not a license to live in sin but it comes with the joy and privilege of seeking to love God and neighbor out of the new person that Christ Jesus is fashioning all believers to be. Sanctification cannot be separated from salvation and glorification because Christ Jesus is the one who begins and completes salvation.
