  Help With Haters 22.06.2026 48min

  Opposition for your faith in Christ doesn't mean something is wrong. It’s evidence you belong to Him.

  The Glory of Love 18.05.2026 34min

  Love. It heals what is broken. It carries you where you need to go. It restores what you thought was lost. “Love never fails.” 1 Corinthians 13:8 But what does love actually look like when it costs you something? When serving feels beneath you? When those closest to you will soon disappoint you? Turn to John 13 for the true glory of love.

  And Finally 23.03.2026 1h 3min

  Who else prefers when things are finished, wrapped up, settled? But we don’t live in a finished world. Wrongs go unanswered. Evil seems unchecked. People celebrate what destroys them. And it wears on you. If you’ve been thinking, “This isn’t how it’s supposed to be,” you’re right. Revelation 20 is our future.

  An Autopsy of "My Way" 09.03.2026 50min

  If Revelation 17 was the death of world religion, Revelation 18 is the autopsy. Regardless of whether it appears to be spiritual or moral, false religion is still self rule. Anything built on “my way” will eventually collapse. Following Jesus is the exact opposite – He must increase, I must decrease. Listen to this teaching in Revelation 18 and ask the Spirit to search your heart. Is Christ truly on the throne, or is self still calling the shots?
