Apocalyptic Christmas (Week 2): Stop Chasing Shadows and Come Home

We were never created to chase shadows. From Eden to the veil and sacrifice, Scripture reveals humanity’s deepest ache for belonging—and God’s invitation to come home to His presence.

STAND (Week 2): When the World Calls You by Another Name

We don’t fight for victory—we surrender to it. In Ephesians 6, Paul calls us to stand in the Lord’s strength. In Daniel 1–3, a remnant refuses to bow when Babylon tries to rename and re-educate them. This week’s message unpacks why private surrender precedes public standing, how Jesus “disarmed the rulers and authorities” (Colossians 2:15), and why the cost of standing is rising in our culture—yet so is the presence of God.
