The Holy Spirit has been given to us to purify and empower us. Dr. Matt Ayars explains how the Spirit can work in our lives today.

Jesus told his disciples that the Holy Spirit would come, but then he told them to wait. Waiting isn’t fun, but it’s also not wasted time. The disciples show us how we should wait for what God wants to do in our lives.

A lot of Christians treat the Holy Spirit like he’s an optional add-on. But what the Bible teaches is that the Holy Spirit is more closely connected to God’s plan for our lives than most of us realize.

    Jesus told his disciples that they weren’t able to understand everything he had to teach them. So he sent a guide to help them once he left. Just like the disciples, we need the guide in our lives.

Good habits aren’t just about starting something new. Sometimes the most important thing is stopping bad habits.

Followers of Jesus are told to leave the old self behind. But often our habits make that hard. In order to become the people God created us to be, we have to set aside some old habits. Here’s how to do that.

Your life is the product of your habits—and it shows. How do you start something new? It’s clear and easy—and that’s what this message is about.

Most of us struggle to create meaningful and lasting change in our lives. Change is hard. But God has designed us so to be capable to change. Only when we understand the design, can we create the right kind of change.

   No one likes to go through a period of pain or hardship, but when we have the right perspective, we can endure and grow from it. The author of Hebrews teaches us that hardship can actually be God’s discipline in our lives. And discipline brings growth.

  Faith is a central concept in Christianity, but we often misunderstand what faith is. In Hebrews, we come to see what faith is in a powerful way.

God never took pleasure in sacrifices and offerings. So, Jesus became the perfect sacrifice and showed us that obedience is what God takes pleasure in.
