If you think you know grace, think again! In my latest message from Romans 6 – one of the most power-packed passages in the entire Bible – we’ll see grace isn’t a license to sin but what keeps you walking by the Spirit and on the right path. Paul’s question, “Or do you not know...?” serves as a wake-up call to the radical transformation you’ve undergone. Imagine living as your new self, free from the old baggage, and fully embracing who you are in Christ. This passage will also revolutionize your understanding of temptation. It’s not about denying or dying to self; it’s about loving yourself and living out your true identity! Watch now and explore the healthy and encouraging truths Romans 6 has in store for you. Discussion Questions: 1. What happens to God’s grace when we sin? So, why not just sin? 2. What significance does “or do you not know…?” hold in this passage? 3. What kind of baptism (water or spiritual) is Paul talking about? What happened to you as a result of being baptized? 4. Why does Paul mention how many times Jesus died here? What does it mean for you? 5. How specifically does this passage transform the way you react to a sinful thought? 6. React to this statement: I’m the new self, so I don’t need to deny myself or die to self. Instead, I can love myself and be myself!

Why does Paul mention defilement of flesh and spirit if we cannot be spiritually defiled as believers? Is the Roman Catholic church the one true church? My brother is a minister, and he is sleeping with multiple women and involved in substance abuse. What should I do? Some say that home church or online church doesn’t “count.” What are your thoughts? Why is the Apocrypha not in our canon of Scripture? What are the good works that God has prepared in advance for us? Why is the Word of Faith movement so damaging? What is the truth about the false idea of guaranteed health or wealth?

What is discernment? Some of my friends listen to explicit music that is laced with profanity. How should I deal with this situation? My friend quotes Matthew 19 to say that we’re still under the 10 Commandments today. What’s the truth?

Can we give up our birthright (our salvation)? If not, then why does Hebrews 12 mention Esau giving up his? What does God canceling “the certificate of debt” mean in Colossians 2? I feel like the Lord asked me to do a bunch of things that I wasn’t willing to do. Then I rebelled and married a man who may be an unbeliever. Now I have a child with him. I’m not sure if I’m supposed to try to go back to my old life. Can you help?

Do you know Jesus prayed you’d be full of joy? In this message from our “EPIC” series, we dive into John 17, where Jesus drops some divine bombshells. Imagine this: As a believer in Christ, you’re in the Trinity! Yes, you read that right. And if that doesn’t make you sit up, how about this? The Father loves you just as much as He loves Jesus. Mind blown yet? Plus, you’ve been given Jesus’ glory. Talk about spiritual stress relief; you can stop chasing after closeness with God! If you’re ready to ditch the ordinary and embrace the extraordinary truths Jesus prayed for you, click through to watch now. You won’t want to miss this one! Discussion Questions: 1. React to this statement: Jesus wants His joy to be made full in you. 2. How are you “not of the world”? How are you kept from the evil one? 3. What does “sanctify” mean? How are we sanctified? 4. React to this statement: You are in the Trinity. 5. What does it mean to you that Jesus has given you His glory? 6. React to this statement: The Father loves you just as He loves Jesus. 7. React to this statement: God’s love is in you, and Christ is in you.

What should you do when you don’t feel God is pleased with you? How could the people mentioned in Matthew 7 cast out demons and heal if they weren’t saved? Does Hebrews 6 suggest you can lose your salvation? What does it mean to be “glorified” in Romans 8:30? Are we giving too much power to Satan? Can a Christian receive a hex or a curse? How do we reconcile the advice to marry if you burn with lust with the idea that we have been given a spirit of self-control?
