Jun 08, 2020•32 min•Ep 97•Transcript available on Metacast “Humility is birthed at the foot of the cross." — In the second week of our series ANCHOR, Pastor Ben Stuart brings a timely and important message about the radical grace of God. We are not only reconciled with God through the cross; the cross also restores relationships with each other. The gospel is not worth preaching if it does not have the power to break down the wall dividing ethnic groups. The grace of God is so radical that it makes enemies not just into friends but into a family. — With...
Jun 01, 2020•42 min•Ep 96•Transcript available on Metacast “He must increase, but I must decrease.” John 3:30 This is a powerful statement from someone who understood what mattered most to God, and therefore what should matter most to us. But it’s hard, it’s difficult to wrap our minds why we have to decrease, and what that really means. Pastor Brad Jones kicks off a new series, ANCHOR, with a look at the life of John the Baptist, and what we can learn from this famous exchange between him and his followers to help us see not only what matters most to G...
May 25, 2020•44 min•Ep 95•Transcript available on Metacast Almost nothing is guaranteed, except for two things: Life is Hard. God is Good. That’s it; those are the two guarantees we’re walking away with today. The first one, life is hard, no one ever really had to teach us. The second one is a whole different story. God is good… all the time. So what happens when that truth faces off against real life? What happens when we are confronted with the truth that the story of Jesus-followers is a story of hardship? How do we reconcile the mountain of victory ...

May 11, 2020•43 min•Ep 93•Transcript available on Metacast How we handle hardship could be the heroic thing inside of all of us.

David was the most famous person in the whole kingdom and beloved by everyone around him Everyone except the king.

May 04, 2020•36 min•Ep 92•Transcript available on Metacast This probably isn't how you imagined your year would look. Chances are you didn't anticipate a global pandemic, a shelter-in-place order or having to spend each day wondering when things would return to the way they were. There was no plan for postponing your dream wedding, celebrating your grandson's birthday through a video call or mourning the loss of a loved one with far fewer people than they deserved. You didn't ask for your situation, but you can turn the page on it. — With Passion City O...
Apr 27, 2020•41 min•Ep 91•Transcript available on Metacast Even the heroes of our faith, men and women who walked with God for decades, had moments where they felt like they couldn’t go on. Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer. From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. Psalm 61:1-3 David knew what it felt like to experience moments of desperation. If the man who conquered Goliath (with the help of God) as a small chi...

Apr 13, 2020•45 min•Ep 88•Transcript available on Metacast These days are hard. They aren’t what we planned, and there’s no end in sight. So how are we supposed to not only live through these days but to live well in the midst of them? The answer can be found in the book of Hebrews. But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings, (you came out of the blocks strong!) sometimes being publicly exposed to reproach and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated. For you had compass...
Apr 06, 2020•35 min•Ep 87•Transcript available on Metacast Where is God? It's a valid question and one that no one should feel shame about asking. One of the wonderful attributes of God is that He isn't afraid of our questions. Our searching for God gives Him another chance to put His Glory and His overarching story on display. Besides, this is hardly a new question. Overwhelming? Yes. Original? No. It's the very same question that has bounced around the minds of believers and skeptics for thousands of years. — With Passion City Online you can join us e...
Mar 30, 2020•40 min•Ep 86•Transcript available on Metacast What the world needs most today, what our cities and communities need most today, what we all need most today is a spiritual awakening. Here’s the good news. It’s possible. Right now, God is closer to you than you think. How close? Twenty inches. Twenty inches is all that separates you from, “then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” It’s the twenty inches between your knees and the ground. It’s assuming a position of kneeling before the mighty God and...

He healed him. — Subscribe to our channel to see more messages from Passion City Church: https://www.youtube.com/...
Mar 16, 2020•30 min•Ep 84•Transcript available on Metacast Why does our love for God become service to a stranger? For the believer, why do we show love to those around us? Continuing the series, “Great Whys”, Pastor Ben Stuart challenges us with this: “He loves them. I love him. So I love them.” The simplicity is a “That We May” mindset — we move towards others in love, because God loves them, and we love God. — Subscribe to our channel to see more messages from Louie Giglio and Passion City Church: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqWq...
