In this last sermon in the Walking Dead series, pastor Harry Li discusses the final dilemma that keeps us from being a walking dead person: The opposition of the World. He uses Col 4:2-6 as the backdrop to draw principles from Paul's own example and writings to encourage believers to engage the world, even when they are discouraging and in opposition to our faith. Paul asks the church at Colossae to pray that he, as the messenger, would present the message with clarity and offers practical teachings on how to engage our culture.

Student and Young Adult Pastor Chuck Eastman continues Mosaic's "Walking Dead" series with this message which covers the 6th Dilemma, the fear of letting others know about Christ. Christians seem terrified to share their faith with others. But we need to remember that the Gospel isn't about us, it's about God who does the work to bring dead people to life! This message was presented on July 21, 2013 at Mosaic's Little Rock campus.

How do we stay dead to self and alive to Christ is how even when we’re in relationship with people who have very living imperfection? That’s the subject of this message from Pastor Mike Clowers. Explaining that understanding our identity as a Christ follower leads to behavior that is consistent with that identity and ultimately, to the fulfilling of our purpose, to walk in unity with one another. This video contains a documentary film by Jesse Brass called “Beauty” SaveFrom.net that features the painting of Melanie Norris. This message was presented at Mosaic’s Little Rock campus on Sunday, July 14, 2013.

Harry Li discusses the fourth dilemma facing the Walking Dead: overcoming the past. In this message, Pastor Harry distinguishes the difference between running from your past versus breaking free from your past, which is rooted in forgiveness. Using several key passages on Forgiveness, a definition is presented along with three typical targets of our unforgiveness. This message was presented at Mosaic's Little Rock campus on July 7, 2013.

Jesus paid the ultimate price to bring us into relationship with Himself. We, too, must pay a price in order to follow Him faithfully, daily, for the rest of our lives. In this message, Pastor Mark considers the third dilemma we face in walking alive to Christ and dead to ourselves: namely, it costs us to follow Jesus. With Luke 9 as a backdrop, Mark explains the self-denial, self-sacrifice, and self surrender required of the Walking Dead. Learn, too, why three individuals were unable to follow Jesus in spite of their otherwise stated, good, intentions, and why the rich young ruler, himself, walked away. In so doing, you will be better equipped to understand the daily struggle and live out the calling to which you've been called.

In this message, Harry Li discusses Dilemma #2 in the Walking Dead series: Sin is Pleasurable for a Season. Using Hebrews 3:13 as a backdrop, Pastor Harry Li teaches on the deceitfulness of sin and the necessary perspectives on sin and grace for one to become a walking dead person that as Paul describes in Gal 6:14, "The world has been crucified to me and I to the world.

In this message, Mark DeYmaz tackles the first of seven common dilemmas facing those who would walk dead to self and alive to Christ: namely, "no one wants to die." Learn how you as a believer are already dead in Christ, and why you can cease striving for God's love or to be good enough for Him: for God will never love or accept you any more or less than He already does! With Spanish translation by Cesar Ortega, this message was presented on June 16, 2013 at Mosaic's Little Rock campus.

In the second message of the Walking Dead series, Pastor Anthony Hendricks looks deeply at how to balance both dying and living as a Christ-follower. Considering that we are so caught up struggling to die, we have forgotten how to live! Using Romans 12 and Ephesians 2 for his text, Pastor Anthony uses a well-known music video to drive home the point that living means we are to worship and serve God with the days He has given us. Message was given at the Little Rock campus on June 9, 2013.

In this Summer series intro, and playing off the popular AMC cable show of the same name, Pastor Mark overviews the biblical concept of living alive to Christ and dead to self; a consistent theme throughout the Bible. To live alive to Christ yet dead to self is easier said than done, especially in a world filled with sin that can otherwise devour the living. In his message, Mark outlines seven common dilemmas believers face in living true to this ideal, and comments on Galatians 2:20 in a most creative way. His creative explanation of our understanding of forgiveness at the time of conversion, and the differences between justification and sanctification, are truly unforgettable!

As you will see, story is powerful. What’s yours? This service was held at the Little Rock campus of Mosaic on May 26, 2013.
