The Daily, a popular New York Times podcast, defined the word ``cancel' 'as a total disinvestment in something.” In today’s cancel culture, we often see a public outcry for accountability that quickly becomes a call for atonement. While accountability is absolutely needed, the culture can become a mob out for blood, like the Pharisees of ancient days. This concept of cancel culture has no doubt trickled into our individual relationships, too, and contributed to the divided world we live in now.

Watch this message from Part 4 of Liquid Church’s Relationship Goals series to learn how we can adapt to our current culture without adopting its values. Pastor Kayra Montanez provides Christians with 3 practical steps to live in the tension when we see a post or hear opinions that we don’t like or agree with. Living like Jesus in a cancel culture isn’t going to be easy, because it involves loving our enemies. So, the next time you feel tempted to join the mob, remember that Jesus did just the opposite for you.

Within the church, you’ll often hear, “Don’t have sex before marriage,” and that’s usually as far as the conversation goes. However, there is a lot of missing information for Christians when the conversation ends here. In this message from Part 3 of Liquid Church’s Relationship Goals series, Pastor Tim Lucas leads us in a candid conversation about what the Bible says about sex and the soul ties that it forms within us.

We believe the culture has hijacked the conversation about sex, and it’s time for God to claim it back! See, God didn’t originally intend for sex to be seen as something dirty, evil or shameful. In fact, sex was divinely made by our Creator, and given as a gift from God to His children, for their enjoyment within the context of marriage.

This message is based on teaching from Pastor Michael Todd’s book, Relationship Goals. Ultimately, God can redeem your past sins. Watch this message and learn how God can restore you when you surrender your sexuality to Christ.

In this message from Part 2 of Liquid Church’s Relationship Goals series, Pastor Kayra Montanez debunks common singleness myths and shares how you can enjoy singleness as the gift from God that it is. There is the myth that singleness is a problem to be solved. Some may say singleness is a waste of your sexuality. In fact, a lot of people fall into believing the myth that they are incomplete until they find their soulmate or the perfect partner they have been searching for…

No matter if you are single, single again, or supporting a single friend or family member - let’s make right what the world has gotten wrong about singleness and relationships. Whether God calls you to a life of singleness or a season, learn how you can embrace God’s presence in your life and purpose for your life right where you are today.

Has God ever spoken to you through a dream? For some, this is a way God speaks to you regularly. For the rest of us, this sounds weird. However, throughout the Bible we do see God gives prophetic dreams and visions to many of His children, including Joseph in Genesis and Paul in Acts.

If prophetic dreams are an area of your faith journey that is unfamiliar to you, listen to this message from Part 3 of Liquid Church’s “Dream Again” series to learn the basics. Whether God gives you a prophetic dream or another person speaks a word over you from a dream or vision, we believe that God can still move through dreams today. In this message, Pastor Nithin Thompson explains three reasons why God gives prophetic dreams and words from Himself to His children, and provides four guardrails to help us discern whether a dream is a prophetic word from God, or just a normal, everyday dream.

When it comes to prophecy and prophetic dreams, remember that the Holy Spirit is at the center. God speaks into our lives through prayer and Scripture, but He can also speak to you through dreams and visions. Don’t be overwhelmed - just be open to His leading.

Ever have a God-given dream, but feel like you keep facing setbacks? Maybe these setbacks make it feel like you’ll never reach your God-given purpose. See, when God reveals a dream for your life, it attracts enemy attention. Your bold dreams may attract haters who criticize you or put you down. However, God can restore your dream. While the devil has a plot, God has a plan to help you dream again!

In this message from Part 2 of Liquid Church’s “Dream Again” series, Pastor Tim Lucas shares how God can restore your dreams, just like he restored the dream of Joseph in Genesis. You see, Joseph was a man of God who was given a bold, God-sized dream as a teenager, but Joseph faced opposition from all sides before his dream came true 13 years later. Through all Joseph’s testing and all God’s delays, He never lost faith and kept trusting God. He knew that if God gave him the vision, He’d give him the provision to reach his dream and God-given purpose.

What dreams do you long for God to restore? Watch this message from Liquid Church to learn how God turned Joseph's setbacks into a set-up for his comeback - and can do the same for you!

If you’re trying to reconcile a broken relationship, but not sure where to start, you should know that forgiveness and reconciliation are two different sides of the same coin. See, forgiveness is a one-player game between you and God. But, before you can have reconciliation in a relationship with someone you’ve hurt or who has hurt you, forgiveness must be present. Reconciliation means restoring or fixing a relationship that is broken and needs mending. But how do you even begin to take steps towards reconciliation when you may be filled with fear, shame and pain?

In this message from Part 3 of Liquid Church’s “A Christmas Carol” series, Pastor Nithin Thompson shares 5 steps to biblically begin reconciling a broken relationship: Whether that’s a relationship with a romantic partner, a co-worker, friend or estranged family member. Who is God asking you to give the gift of reconciliation too? You may not be able to change the past, but God can transform your future!

When you think of forgiveness, does a particular person or situation come to mind? You may be wondering… How can you forgive someone when it’s so hard? Does forgiveness mean reconciling your relationship with the offender? Oftentimes, the holiday season has a way of highlighting the problems and pain we feel. So, in order to actually experience the true joy of Christmas, we need to learn what biblical forgiveness really looks like...and how can we take steps towards forgiving when it’s difficult to do.

In this message from Part 2 of Liquid Church’s “A Christmas Carol” series, Pastor Tim Lucas explains that biblical forgiveness is NOT minimizing the seriousness of the offense. Forgiveness does NOT necessarily mean reconciliation. Forgiveness is NOT forgetting what happened. Forgiveness, of all things, is NOT fair…. Because if God were fair, we would be paying for our own sins instead of being covered by the sacrificial forgiveness of Jesus.

Watch this message to learn 3 biblical ways to practically forgive someone when it’s hard or feels impossible to do on your own.
