Let's embrace the Holy Spirit, without fear of man. Only fear of God.

Christmas at Beyond '25!

In Part 7 of Letters to the Churches, Pastor Nate finishes Jesus’ letters by teaching through Revelation 3, focusing on the church in Philadelphia and the church in Laodicea—two churches connected by one powerful theme: doors.

Faith isn’t passive. It isn’t automatic. It’s something we must hold fast to—on purpose. In this teaching, we look at three critical areas where believers must stay strong and refuse to let go:Don’t loosen your grip on the Word of GodThe Word is living, powerful, and present-tense. Everything God does in our lives begins with a word, and the enemy’s first strategy is always to steal it. We’re called to hold fast, stay anchored, and remain persuaded—no matter the pressure, delay, or opposition.

A Scripture-soaked call to prayer that actually changes things. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 10:4–5, Isaiah 55:8–9, Romans 12:1–2, 1 Timothy 2:1–4, and Ephesians 1:17–19, this message unpacks what strongholds really are—fortified thought patterns and beliefs—and how the Word + the Spirit pull them down.

In today’s message, Pastor Nate continues our Churches of Revelation series with a powerful and sobering look at the church of Sardis in Revelation 3. Sardis was a wealthy, influential city—yet spiritually asleep and living off its past reputation. Jesus tells them, “You have a reputation for being alive, but you are dead.”

This sermon uncovers the danger of neglect, the cracks we ignore, and the areas of our lives where we’ve stopped doing what we once did. Just like Sardis fell because a small crack was unaddressed, believers today can lose spiritual passion, marriages can weaken, and God-given assignments can fade—not because of rebellion, but because of neglect, distraction, and living off yesterday’s reputation.

In today’s message, Pastor Nate continues our series Letters to the Church by walking through Jesus’ words to the church in Thyatira (Revelation 2). This is one of the most direct and corrective letters Jesus gives—not because He’s angry, but because He deeply loves His church and refuses to let us be destroyed by the evil we tolerate.

In Part 5 of Letters to the Churches, Pastor Nate unpacks Jesus’ message to the church in Smyrna from Revelation 2:8–11—a word for anyone walking through pain, persecution, or pressure. The command is simple but powerful: “Don’t quit.”

In today’s message, Landon teaches on the power of cultivating a lifestyle of thanksgiving—a way of living that increases our capacity to receive from God. Drawing from the Israelites’ grumbling, the dangers of pride, and the invitation to humility, this message reveals how gratitude aligns our hearts with God’s grace.

You’ll learn:

• Why complaining limits God’s work in our lives

• How humility and thankfulness flow together

• How comparison and entitlement undermine gratitude

• Why thanksgiving is the language of faith God responds to

• How to give thanks in every circumstance and experience supernatural peace

This message will equip you to shift your perspective, guard your heart, and live with a grateful mindset that honors God and changes your life.
