Faith and Righteousness - Michael Lombardo

The Church: Then and Now - Michael Lombardo

We love to romanticize the early church - the miracles, the unity, the power. But Scripture shows us a fuller picture: a church that was devoted, generous, and Spirit-filled, yet also flawed, divided, and still learning what new covenant living looked like. In this message, we walk through Acts 2 and the account of Justin Martyr to discover what early Christian gatherings actually looked like, and we ask the better question: are we devoted to the same things they were? This episode will challenge how you think about church, encourage you in the goodness of what God is doing today, and call you back to the heart of Acts 2 - not as a formula, but as a way of life.

Testimonies and Malawi - David Peterka

Missionary and pastor David Peterka joined us at Awaken Dallas to share the story of his ministry rescuing trafficked and abused little girls in Malawi. He didn't hold back, sharing real testimonies, the story of how it all began, and the personal cost of answering this call. Raw, emotional, and filled with genuine faith and hope, this is one of those messages that will break your heart and build your faith all at once.

Faith and Righteousness - Michael Lombardo

What does it mean to be the righteousness of God in Christ? In this episode, we explore the life-changing truth of righteousness, not as something we achieve through our own efforts, but as a gift we receive through faith in Jesus Christ. We'll unpack what the New Testament teaches about being declared righteous before God and how that new identity transforms the way we live. Together, we'll discuss overcoming shame, guilt, and self-condemnation, the importance of believing what God says about us, and how faith and God's Word work together to produce lasting transformation. Through Scripture and personal testimony, we'll discover how embracing our identity in Christ leads to freedom, confidence, and victory in everyday life. Key Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 5:21, Romans 5:17, 1 Corinthians 1:30, James 1:22-25, Hebrews 3-4, 1 John 2:29, 1 John 3:7, and 1 John 5:1-4.
