What does it mean to belong to God in a world filled with uncertainty? In Revelation 7, Pastor Blake walks through John's vision of God's people being sealed and protected, alongside a countless multitude from every nation, worshiping before the throne. This message reminds us that no matter what is happening around us, God knows His people, keeps His promises, and is gathering a family from every tribe, tongue, and nation. As we fix our eyes on Jesus, the Good Shepherd, we're invited to live with confidence, worship, and hope as we await the day when He makes all things new. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What if the victory you’ve been longing for has already been secured? In Revelation 5, John sees the Lamb who was slain standing victorious — Jesus, the only One worthy to open the scroll and bring God’s redemptive plan to completion. Pastor Spence unpacks this powerful vision, reminding us that because Christ has conquered sin and death, we can live with confidence, hope, and surrender today. As we celebrate sending 50 people to help plant Oasis Church in North Charlotte, this message challenges us to consider what it looks like to give Jesus our all. He alone is worthy of our worship, our trust, and our lives. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What happens when a church slowly drifts from wholehearted devotion to Jesus? In Revelation 2–3, Jesus speaks directly to the seven churches - calling out compromise, complacency, fear, and spiritual apathy while inviting His people back to faithful obedience. From Ephesus losing its first love to Laodicea settling for lukewarm faith, these letters reveal that outward success can never replace genuine devotion to Christ. Pastor Spence walks through these powerful warnings and encouragements, reminding us that Jesus doesn’t just care about religious activity - He desires hearts fully surrendered to Him. Revelation calls the church to endure faithfully, repent where needed, and live with bold allegiance to Jesus in a world constantly pulling us toward compromise.

What if the very thing you’re trying to control is actually keeping you trapped in fear? Pastor Allan Waruhiu, lead pastor of Mercy Nairobi, unpacks how Jesus confronts three fears that often hold us back from living on mission: fear of people, fear of not having enough, and fear of insignificance. It’s a call to trust God and step into bold, gospel-centered living. Whether that means going across the world or living generously right where you are, we don’t have to live controlled by fear. When we trust our God with tomorrow, we’re freed to live fully on mission today. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
