episode Jesus Didn't Come to Make You a Better Person - He Came To Transform You cover

Description

Most people come to Jesus hoping to become a better version of themselves.But that's not what He offers.In this message from Acts 9, Pastor Keith walks through the most dramatic transformation in all of Scripture — Saul of Tarsus, a man who dragged Christians from their homes and threw them in prison, becoming Paul the Apostle, the greatest church planter who ever lived.Same person. Completely different creation.That's not self-improvement. That's transformation."If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, the new has come."— 2 Corinthians 5 verse 17Jesus did not come to make us a better person.He died to make us a new one.

You Didn't Fall Out of Love — You Ran Out of Emotion

Most marriages don't fail because people stopped caring. They fail because of lies people believed long before the problems started.In this message, Pastor Keith walks through three of the most common lies that quietly destroy marriages and brings it all back to what God actually designed marriage to be: a reflection of Christ's love for the church.• Why God is not nearly as concerned about your happiness as you are• The "escape clause" mentality that sabotages commitment before problems even start• Why marriage is not about finding the right person — it's about becoming one• What Ephesians 5 actually says about the husband's role (and why it starts with him)• What happens in a marriage when a wife finally feels cherished• The three heart conditions that quietly poison a marriage — and how God heals them

What Are You Agreeing On?

What kind of environment are you creating at home?In this message, Pastor Keith challenges parents to stop aiming at the wrong target: grades, scholarships, appearances- and set the right bullseye: raising spiritually deep kids, unshakeable in their faith, and genuinely in love with Jesus.Drawing from the story of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5, this message unpacks how the goals a couple agrees on together ripple into every corner of their family — and their children's future.📖 Scripture: Acts 5 verses 1–11 | James 5 verse 16 | Joshua 24 verse 15In this message:• Why the home environment matters more than any church program• The hidden agreement most families are making without realizing it• The danger of performing Christianity instead of living it• What it looks like when both parents align around the right goal• Why honesty and confession are the foundation of a spiritually healthy homePart of our ongoing series on "Reclaiming Your Home".
