In the sixth week of The Upside Down Kingdom series, Pastor Joby taught through the kingdom of God and satisfaction.

Last week we asked the question, what are you doing with your one and only life? Often the comforts of this world have the ability to quiet God’s calling and lull us into spiritual sleep. When we take our eyes off the mission God calls us to in the great commission, we end up chasing pleasure instead of purpose. God has put eternity in our hearts so we would live for his glory.

“If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.” – C.S. Lewis

The next season of Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin starts next week! Season 4 will cover the next sermon series and Pastor Joby’s new book, If The Tomb is Empty. We’re looking forward to what God will do through the next seven weeks.

What are you doing with your one and only life?

This week we dive into the kingdom of God and work. God’s calling looks different for everyone, but we know God created each and every one of us for one purpose: to live out the great commission laid out in Matthew 28:19, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”

The key question is this: what is your role in the great commission? How are you leveraging your time, talent, and treasures God has given you? Are you living your life on-mission where you are?

In week 4 of The Upside Down Kingdom, Pastor Joby teaches through the radical difference between what the world and God says about sex. This week he’s joined by Pastors Ryan Britt and Trey Brunson.

We see how the world views sex all over movies, television and magazines, that sex is merely physical. But God created sex for intimacy between a husband and wife, fueled by exclusivity in the covenant of marriage.

19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, 20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body. – 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

This week Pastors Joby, Britt and Vinke dive into the kingdom of God and power. The world’s definition of greatness is being lifted up at the expense of others; Jesus defined greatness as being the servant of all.

Greatness in the kingdom means being close to Jesus, submitted to his authority, enduring suffering and serving like Jesus served. Join us as we discuss what it looks like to be a faithful follower of Jesus no matter where he has placed you in this world.

It's week two of The Upside Down Kingdom series and Pastor Joby is joined again by Pastors Jonathan Vinke and Ryan Britt. Join their conversation as they continue to explore how living in the kingdom of God relates to money, generosity and what we treasure. According to Jesus, money is the number one competitor for our heart; want to know who or what you worship? Check your bank statement. God wants us to be blessed and free by putting him first in all things.

"No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money." Matthew 6:24

This week, Pastor Joby is joined by Pastors Jonathan Vinke and Ryan Britt, and together they continue the conversation after week one of The Upside Down Kingdom series. Our reality operates with two kingdoms: the kingdom of God and kingdom of this world. We were brought to this world by God for a purpose with an enemy who wants to steal, kill and destroy. But we know God is Lord over His entire Kingdom, both in Heaven and on earth. Listen as they talk through lies of the enemy, sins of the world and flesh, and what it looks like to live as an image bearer of God in His kingdom on earth.

“Enemy-occupied territory---that is what this world is. Christianity is the story of how the rightful king has landed, you might say landed in disguise, and is calling us to take part in a great campaign of sabotage.”- C.S. Lewis
