Put Up The Good Fight | Made For More | Week 4

Are you struggling to believe that God truly sees you as His beloved child? Many of us can accept that truth for others, but when it comes to ourselves, doubts creep in. We know our flaws, failures, and darkest thoughts. But Romans 8 reminds us that being a child of God isn’t about achieving perfection; it’s about fighting the good fight. Even if we get knocked down by our sinful nature, the mark of God’s children is that we keep getting back up. God’s grace is scandalous, but it’s real. Embrace it. Fight the good fight, knowing God is in your corner.

How to Transform Your Nation | Worlds Apart | Week 9

How do the chains we choose to wear shape the freedom we experience in sharing the Gospel? Exploring Rome's ancient wonders like the Colosseum and the Forum, we see how the city’s structures, once symbols of power and oppression, have become landmarks of faith. Paul, imprisoned in Rome, used his chains to spread the Gospel, turning his guards into captives of Christ’s message. His boldness, even in chains, reminds us that God’s story continues through us. Will we let Christ work in our lives and share His story, regardless of our circumstances?

How to Transform Your City | Worlds Apart | Week 8

Can the Gospel really transform a city? In Acts 19, Paul’s ministry in Ephesus shows us that it can. Ephesus was a city steeped in wealth, violence, sexual immorality, and power struggles. Yet, the message of Jesus offered something greater than wealth or tradition. Paul’s bold preaching led to extraordinary miracles, the spread of the Word, and a city-wide transformation. Even the mighty temple of Artemis couldn’t withstand the power of the Gospel. Discover how the teachings of Jesus can offer not just a new way of living but a revolutionary change worth dying for.
