Idols are never simply removed—they must be replaced. In Romans 1:24-25, Paul reveals how distorted desires lead to impurity when we exchange the truth of God for a lie. But how do we break free?

The answer is found in repentance, delighting in the Lord, walking by the Spirit, and reckoning ourselves dead to sin and alive to God. We are not our own—we were bought with a price to glorify God in our bodies.

Join us as we explore how true renewal comes when we replace counterfeit gods with the fullness of Christ.

Why do we want the things we want? Our desires aren’t inherently evil, but when good things become ultimate things, they turn into idols. Just like the Israelites fashioned an idol from the gold God blessed them with, we, too, can let created things take God’s place in our hearts. The Apostle Paul in Romans 1:24 warns of what happens when darkened hearts over-desire created things instead of the Creator.

How do we reorder our disordered desires? It starts by delighting in God first—only then can our desires be redefined. Join us as we unpack the connection between desire and idolatry and how to realign our hearts with Him.

In this episode, we examine Romans 1:20-23 and the subtle ways our hearts turn from God to worship created things. What do ancient stone statues and your career ambitions have in common?

Join us as we unpack the consequences of misplaced worship and the hope found in the gospel.

In this episode, we dive deeper into Romans 1:16-17, where Paul declares that the righteous shall live by faith. But what does it truly mean to have faith? As Pastor Jesse points out, many people have faith in their faith rather than in God Himself. Are we trusting in our own belief, or are we anchored in the unshakable power of the gospel? Join us as we explore the righteousness of God, the true nature of faith, and how it transforms the way we live every day.
