2 Corinthians 1:3-11 - Divine Comfort: Strength in Suffering and Community. 33:41

7M ago33:41

33:41

When we think of comfort, our minds often drift to cozy images—warm food, soft beds, or the embrace of a loved one. Yet, God's comfort is far deeper and more profound than any earthly coziness. God, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort, is not distant or indifferent to our suffering. He is present in our afflictions, providing relief, s…

37:54

In Ephesians 6:10-20, we are reminded that life as a follower of Jesus is not lived in peacetime, but amid a spiritual battle.

Instead, he graciously provides all we need to stand firm and live for him. Our strength is not…

Colossians 2:16-3:1-2 - Focusing on Christ: Beyond Rules to Heart Transformation 39:06

9M ago39:06

39:06

Andy challenged us to consider that setting our minds on things above, rather than earthly matters, is a call to focus on the essence of our faith—Jesus Christ. The real issue isn't the rules themselves but our relationship with them. Rules can be beneficial, pointing us to Christ, but they can also be dangerous when they become the focus rather th…
