Are you feeling discouraged, downcast, or weighed down by the world? Were you heartbroken at the news about Charlie Kirk this week?

In this video, we’re studying a crucial biblical command found in the New Testament: to encourage one another. This message is part of our series on the “one another” commands, designed to help Christians live in community, build each other up, and thrive in their relationship with God.

In a world filled with sin, sorrow, suffering, and discouragement, encouragement is a daily necessity for believers. Drawing from Hebrews 3:13, we explore what it means to “encourage each other daily.” The term itself means to “call to one’s side”—an intimate, personal act of support and exhortation. We dive into why the church needs encouragement so desperately, especially when facing constant pressures, disappointments, and the deceptions of sin.

The Bible teaches that we receive hope and endurance through the Scriptures themselves. The Word of God comforts us with the truth of who God is and what He is doing in the world. As Christians, we are called to be agents of that same encouragement, just as the Holy Spirit, our Comforter, empowers us. While some believers have a special gift of encouragement, this video reminds us that all Christians are called to participate in this vital work.

This sermon discusses practical ways to encourage one another, such as praying for each other and reminding fellow believers of God’s unstoppable plan and faithfulness. We’ll look at how we can bring consolation in a world that is often filled with darkness and despair. We explore the powerful truth that our faith in Christ can drive out fear, even in the midst of troubling news, and that the Christian life is never hopeless.

God is the God who encourages the downcast, and His power is the same no matter what circumstances we face. His good work cannot be thwarted. We have been called to a bold and vocal hope, a hope that does not give in to hate or pessimism. This message is a reminder to believe in Christ, to trust in the power of His Gospel, and to rest in the continual outpouring of His grace. Join us as we explore this beautiful and necessary command to strengthen, console, and participate in Christ’s love.

If you are a Christian seeking spiritual growth, a Bible study enthusiast, or a person interested in Jesus, Christianity, and spirituality, this video is for you. This teaching from Calvary Chapel will help you understand how to practically live out your faith and build up the Body of Christ. Discover the truth and hope found in God’s Word.
