    No Repentance, No Revival Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 12, 2025
     | 167 views

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 9, 2025
     | 150 views

    Jesus frees us from religion’s stage—calling us from performance to presence, from spotlight to sunlight, to live unmasked before the Father.

    Religious Play-Acting The Sermon on the Mount opens with blessing and ends with a choice: sand or rock, appearance or obedience. Between those two poles, Matthew 6 sits like a quiet heart—Jesus’ exposition of motive. Here the Lord shifts from what disciples do to why they do it. He moves from ...read more
