Jumped into a short conversation on Mornings with Mark & Gabe on  www.heartfeltradio.org .  Unpacking our current message series - Different - 1 Peter.

In this world, you’ll have struggles. You’ll face opposition. You’ll be challenged. And there’s a reason for that: this world is not your home. So answer hate with love, find joy in the midst of trials, and rely on a strength beyond yourself. You’re meant to be … Different. 

When you’re faced with trials, you’ll have a choice. What does it take to choose to stand strong? We’re starting our study of 1 Peter to see what to do.   

The world of 2020 has been marked by chaos and cancellations.

Even the new 2021 has caused many to wonder about life.

And we know the church looks different. We all need to be reminded of what Jesus said to Peter about the church over 2,000 years ago: ”Upon this rock I will build my church and all the powers of hell will not conquer it.” The reality is that the church will never be cancelled! It was built by Jesus, built through His people and built to last...How to be IN.. FOR...BE THE church.

(OK, so two “P”s and one “G.”) In between rapid-fire jokes and real-life stories, comedian Michael Jr. will explain how to find your life’s punchline and how to leave a legacy that makes a difference.
