Most of us think the ultimate goal of the Christian faith is just "going to heaven" when we die, but what if there's something much greater? Discover the surprising, biblical truth about your eternal future and what actually happens when Jesus returns. 

In this powerful message, Elliott Warren dives deep into Romans 8 and 1 Corinthians 15 to uncover the "Great Christian Hope". If you've ever felt like this world is broken or you're groaning for something more, it's because you were meant for a glorious transformation. We aren't just meant to exist as spirits without bodies—or "ghosts" in the afterlife. Instead, we are promised a physical resurrection where we will be fully adopted as "sons of God". 

Learn why all of creation is waiting for this exact moment and how understanding this biblical reality can completely change how you view your present struggles. Stop looking forward to just an intermediate state in heaven, and start putting your hope in the day your mortal body is redeemed and fully transformed into the image of Christ!

Are you struggling to let go of anger when someone deeply offends you? Discover how releasing your desire for revenge can actually unlock your greatest blessings and protect your future. When we are wronged or disrespected, our natural reaction is to justify our anger, hold onto the offense, and seek revenge. However, two of the greatest tactics used against your future are offense and anger. When you are offended, your judgment becomes clouded, and you risk making decisions that can ruin the very future God is preparing for you. In this message, Elliott Warren shares a powerful truth: if you want to see good days and obtain a blessing, you must not repay evil for evil or insult for insult. Using the biblical story of David, Nabal, and Abigail, we learn how to pause in the face of disrespect, humble ourselves, and listen to wise counsel. By refusing to act out of spite, you invite God to handle the situation for you and protect you from the grief of unnecessary consequences. • 00:00:00 - Finding Peace in Difficult Situations • 00:08:20 - Your Season of Breakthrough is Coming • 00:13:57 - How Offense and Anger Distort Your Judgment • 00:22:06 - Why You Shouldn't Repay Evil for Evil • 00:32:00 - The Importance of Listening to Wise Counsel • 00:37:33 - Why Humility is the Key to Your Breakthrough • 00:46:53 - Recognizing When God is Trying to Correct You • 00:54:49 - Closing Prayer for Peace and Humility #overcominganger #letgoofoffense #findingpeace #sermon #ElliottWarren #faith #dealingwithdifficultpeople #Jesus #christianity #spiritualgrowth #humility #wisdom #christianliving #crossculturechurch #personalgrowth If this message helped you find peace today, please subscribe to our channel and share this video with someone who might need encouragement.

Are you feeling trapped in a difficult situation, a hard marriage, or a season that feels entirely hopeless? Discover how to draw near to God and find the divine wisdom you need to overcome your hardest battles.

In this powerful message, Elliott Warren dives into the life of Abigail from First Samuel 25. Abigail was a discerning and wise woman trapped in a miserable marriage to a harsh, badly behaved man named Nabal. Yet, instead of becoming bitter because of her marriage, she drew near to God. Her story reveals that God can take the very circumstances causing you pain and use them to forge deep character and incredible wisdom in your life. 

If you've ever asked, "How did I get here?" or wondered if God can still use you, this sermon offers profound hope. Learn why it's crucial to seek God for insight instead of yielding to anger, which can cause you to make decisions you will regret. Be encouraged that God has not forgotten you, and He knows how to pull you out of obscurity to be a leader who changes the narrative of your family's future.

Wondering what actually happens at the end of the world and if the rapture is real? Discover the surprising truth about life after death and what the future holds for our planet.

Many of us have been taught that the end of times means believers will suddenly disappear into heaven while the earth is left in total chaos. But what if the popular "Left Behind" narrative isn't the whole story? In this message, Elliott Warren explores ancient scriptures to uncover a completely different picture of the future. By looking at the days of Noah, the Psalms, and the teachings of Jesus, we reveal that the ultimate hope isn't just escaping to heaven as a spirit—it's inheriting a glorified, renewed earth. 

If you are grieving the loss of a loved one or feeling anxious about the end of the world, this message brings profound comfort. You'll learn that our loved ones in Christ aren't just waiting in the clouds forever; they are coming back to a new earth with resurrected bodies. Find out why the meek will inherit the earth and how understanding this completely changes how we view life, death, grief, and our ultimate purpose.

Are you living a life that truly matters, or are you secretly wasting your potential? Discover the raw truth about what happens after we die and how your everyday choices impact eternity.

We often hear that we are saved by faith, but what if there is more to the story? In this unfiltered message, Pastor Elliott Warren dives deep into a topic most people avoid: the believer's judgment. While salvation is a free gift, how we spend our time, treat others, and steward our resources will be tested. If you have been feeling stuck in a stagnant routine, struggling with a critical spirit, or wondering if your life has any real significance, this message will give you the wake-up call you need.

Stop settling for the world's version of greatness and success. Learn how to stop judging others, overcome the fear of the future, and start producing real fruit. It's time to redefine what matters, focus on your God-given assignment, and live a life that leaves you with zero regrets in the end.

Are you truly prepared for what the future holds, or are you just going through the motions? Discover how to find real security, prepare your heart, and ensure you aren't caught off guard when everything changes. In this eye-opening message, Elliott Warren tackles the often-avoided realities of the end times, the Second Coming, and the biblical "Day of the Lord." Using powerful examples like the days of Noah and the Parable of the Ten Virgins, he explains why simply relying on past spiritual experiences isn't enough to secure your future. We often let the busyness and worries of everyday life distract us from what truly matters, leaving us spiritually drained and unprepared. This isn't a message meant to cause panic, but rather an urgent wake-up call filled with hope. Learn how God's grace offers a clear path to true peace, how to stop suppressing your conscience, and why genuine repentance is the key to living a life that is fully awake and ready for whatever comes next. If you've been feeling complacent, stuck, or worried about the future, this message will help you reconnect with God and find fresh purpose today. 00:00 - Welcome & Why We Need to Talk About the Future 05:24 - The Day of the Lord: Coming Like a Thief in the Night 17:18 - Critical Warnings and Lessons from the Days of Noah 22:10 - Who Will Truly Inherit the Earth? 29:27 - The Parable of the Ten Virgins Explained 40:34 - Why You Cannot Rely on Your Past Experiences 44:14 - Escaping Coming Judgment Through Genuine Repentance 50:55 - How God's Kindness Actually Leads Us Back to Him 55:22 - How to Examine and Prepare Your Heart Today #EndTimes #SpiritualAwakening #Faith #Jesus #FindingPeace #PrepareYourHeart #OvercomingFear #ChristianSermon #ElliottWarren #Repentance #BibleStudy #SecondComing #HopeInChrist #christianliving If this message helped you find clarity today, please hit the LIKE button, subscribe to our channel for more encouraging messages, and share this video with someone who needs to hear it!

Feeling overwhelmed by the darkness in the world or in your own life? Discover how to recognize the enemy's hidden schemes and activate God's ultimate power to break through the spiritual warfare you're facing. It's easy to look around and feel like the darkness is winning, but there is a spiritual reality happening behind the scenes. In this powerful message, Elliott Warren breaks down the reality of spiritual warfare and how the enemy uses fear, doubt, and hidden schemes to keep us defeated. By looking at the days leading up to the crucifixion and the reality of the "evil day" mentioned in Ephesians 6, we discover that the darkness we feel is often a setup for God's greatest breakthroughs. You don't have to live as a victim to the culture or your circumstances. Learn how to stand strong in truth, why consistent prayer is your greatest defense mechanism, and how the resurrection of Jesus wasn't just a historical event—it was an earth-shattering shift in power that is available to you right now. 00:00:00 - The True Power of the Resurrection 00:05:50 - Having the Courage to Stand for Truth in a Dark World 00:10:20 - Ephesians 6: How to Recognize the Enemy's Hidden Schemes 00:18:00 - How Spiritual Forces Operate Behind the Scenes 00:29:00 - Overcoming the Heaviness of the "Evil Day" 00:36:00 - Why Prayer is Your Ultimate Defense Mechanism 00:41:00 - The Prophetic Sign of Jonah and the 3 Days in the Grave 00:54:00 - Activating an "Earthquake" of God's Power in Your Life #spiritualwarfare #overcomingdarkness #resurrectionpower #faithoverfear #christianmotivation #spiritualgrowth #hopeindarkness #ephesians6 #prayerworks #christianliving #biblestudy #Jesus #sermon #churchonline If this message encouraged you today, please hit the LIKE button and SUBSCRIBE to our channel for more biblical truths.

Are you going through the motions but still feeling stuck in life? Discover why simply being around good things isn't enough to change your heart, and how you can finally break free from hidden resentment. In this powerful message, Elliott Warren explores the hidden dangers of holding onto secret sins and bitterness. Looking closely at the story of Judas, we see how easy it is to disguise our true motives and personal agendas behind righteous-sounding arguments. Judas walked alongside Jesus for three years and witnessed incredible miracles, yet his heart never truly changed. He remained a petty thief who allowed bitterness to completely cloud his judgment. This sermon challenges us to take a deeply honest look at our own lives. Are we just polishing our outward religious appearance while harboring hidden resentment or unyielded habits? True transformation requires more than just feeling remorse when things go wrong; it demands genuine repentance and fully surrendering our old ways to God. Watch to learn how to identify the subtle, contagious traps of bitterness and step into genuine spiritual freedom. 00:00 - The Power of Praise and Faith 04:08 - The Woman with the Alabaster Flask 08:29 - When Good Deeds Offend Bitter Hearts 11:29 - The Danger of Being a "Petty" Sinner 18:07 - Why Going to Church Doesn't Guarantee Change 24:00 - Warning Signs from the Wilderness Generation 34:00 - How Bitterness Masquerades as Righteousness 48:25 - The Difference Between Remorse and True Repentance 57:00 - A Prayer for Genuine Heart Surrender #OvercomingBitterness #TrueRepentance #HiddenHabits #HeartChange #FaithJourney #Sermon #ChristianLiving #SpiritualGrowth #FindingPeace #ElliottWarren #crossculturechurch If this message helped you, please subscribe to our channel and share this video with someone who needs encouragement today!

Are you trading your long-term peace and eternal future for a short-term pleasure? Discover how one small choice can lead to life's biggest regrets and how you can reclaim your spiritual inheritance today.

In this powerful message, Elliott Warren explores the life-altering story of Jacob and Esau to answer a critical question: What are you willing to give up for a "single meal"?. While many focus on building wealth or satisfying immediate desires, this sermon reveals the hidden spiritual costs of living for "the flesh" over "the spirit".

Through the warning in Hebrews 12 and the modern cautionary tale of Charles Templeton, you will learn how to identify the subtle ways the "spirit of Mammon" and worldly distractions can lead you off course. This message offers a wake-up call to anyone who feels like they’ve been living "halfway in and halfway out," providing the hope and steps needed to prioritize eternal things before it's too late.
