3. Returning to Our First Love (Revelation 2:1-7)

3. Returning to Our First Love (Revelation 2:1-7)

Speaker: Addison Hagberg / Series: To Him Who Overcomes • What does Jesus want from us? Jesus is all-knowing and sees our good works and our stand for truth. Most of all, Jesus wants our hearts. He wants us to return to our first love.

2. Gazing on Christ (Revelation 1:9-20)

Speaker: Addison Hagberg / Series: To Him Who Overcomes • The world and its struggles often give us a false view of reality. Jesus meets us wherever we are with His holy character, and He now invites us to overcome as we gaze on Him.

1. You Are an Overcomer! (Revelation 1:1-8)

Speaker: Zach Sparkman / Series: To Him Who Overcomes • We all will face times or even seasons of weariness in our Christian lives, where joy is elusive, hope has waned, and our strength falters. There is one majestic, eternal, loving Lord who has saved, delivered, and transformed us by His blood, who invites us to understand what is coming soon so that we experience the blessing of keeping his words. You are an overcomer by the blood of the Lamb!

45. Long-Term Fruitfulness (Acts 14:21-8)

Speaker: Zach Sparkman / Series: Acts: The Church on Mission • One of the hardest parts of making spiritual investments is not being able to see the results of our labors, so we grow impatient. Paul and Barnabas concluded their first missionary journey by encouraging and setting up leadership in their church plants before returning to Antioch to report on what God did. Since the local church is God’s chosen headquarters for Great Commission work, your long-term fruitfulness is directly tied to your commitment to and participation in a healthy, Bible-preaching, missional local church.

44. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (Acts 14:8-20)

Speaker: Zach Sparkman / Series: Acts: The Church on Mission • God’s power is one of the first attributes children are taught, yet adult believers can live as if they are ignorant of God’s unlimited power. Paul’s ministry in Lystra demonstrated God’s power as the only true and living God, who healed a lame man and raised Paul up after being stoned. We need childlike faith to believe that God’s almighty power is always working, whether in the good, the bad, or the ugly times of life.
