Over time—often without realizing it—we can develop misunderstandings about God, the Bible, and what it means to follow Jesus. These misconceptions can shape our expectations as well as influence our decisions and quietly limit the life God desires for us. Together, we’ll examine three common misconceptions, uncovering the truth behind them and discovering how to open the door to a more honest, vibrant, and abundant life with God.
This message explores what happens after Christmas and why our everyday posture toward God matters. Through the story of Simeon in Luke 2, we see how a life lived attentive to the Holy Spirit, available to God’s will, and aware of Jesus’ presence leads to life-changing moments. Simeon didn’t see the miracles, the cross, or the resurrection, yet his surrendered “yes” positioned him to witness the beginning of something world-changing. This sermon invites us to consider what we might be missing, how revival can begin within us, and what could be on the other side of a faithful, obedient yes to God.
