In this message from our From Death to Life series, Pastor Robey Barnes challenges us to evaluate whether our lives reflect true transformation or just religious affiliation. Drawing from the contrasting examples of the chief priests, Judas, Lazarus, and Mary, we are reminded that being near spiritual things doesn’t guarantee a changed heart. Through Jesus’ death and resurrection, we are offered more than just association—we are offered new life, invincibility through faith, and freedom from greed, hypocrisy, and self-preservation. This sermon invites us to experience the authentic transformation only Jesus can bring and to live a life of genuine worship, rest, and generosity.
