    ### **Introduction: The Pressure to Be Strong** Video Ill.: Sermon Bumper We live in a culture that bullies weakness. If you cannot handle it on your own, you are labeled as fragile, broken, or useless. Weakness is laughed at, mocked, and quickly dismissed. From childhood, we are told to toughen ...read more

     | 246 views

    Jesus calls His church beyond comfort, silence, and spectacle—to live Spirit-filled, Scripture-grounded lives that reveal His power and love.

    Picture Jesus, freshly baptized, water still drying on his shoulders, the voice of the Father ringing in his soul. “You are my beloved Son.” The dove has barely taken flight. That is exactly when the devil comes calling. Nobody gets a free victory lap after baptism. The real fight often starts ...read more

    Through accountability we can know the difference between sowing from the flesh and sowing from the Spirit.

    GOOD WORKS DO NOT SAVE US. RATHER, GOOD WORKS COME AS A RESULT OF BEING SAVED. GOOD WORKS ARE THE FRUIT BORN OUT OF A LIFE THAT IS PLANTED FIRMLY IN A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST.
