In Acts 4:13, the religious leaders marveled at Peter and John—astonished by their boldness and the power they displayed. Though they were ordinary men, it was undeniable that they had been with Jesus. In the same way, when we are filled with the Holy Spirit, our lives should reflect that transformation—empowered, changed, and unmistakably marked by His presence.

Jesus is not against good things – having a fancy car, a nice boat, or a big barn. But He is against us upholding the blessing over the one who is doing the blessing. Guest speaker, Jeff Goodman, compels us to get out of storing mode, and get back into the field, sowing as God intended us to. 

In this sermon, we dive into the warning signs that show up when our personal culture drifts from the way of Jesus. Culture isn’t just what happens around us—it’s what we cultivate in our lives. If we don’t model the life culture of Jesus, we risk developing unhealthy habits, beliefs, and values that pull us away from God’s design. But when we align with His way, our lives thrive.

Watch now and discover how to recognize red flags in your culture and build a life that reflects Jesus!
