Temptation is a reality for all of us. Whether it’s lust, worry, addiction, or any sinful thought, there’s no shortage of ways the enemy seeks to drag us down and destroy us. When we give in, feelings of guilt and shame only make us feel worse. So how do we say “no” to temptation? Is it through more willpower, imitating Jesus better, or something else? In this message, I share practical, solid answers you can use right now when facing temptation. You’ll find hope again as you discover the truths – and choices – that will help deliver you next time you’re tempted!

It might seem like a simple question, but there are several theories in the Christian world about why Jesus died. Some say it was to conquer sin. Others believe it was to buy us back from the curse of the Law. Concepts like “atonement” and “penal substitution” are often part of the discussion. In this message, I share three main reasons why Jesus died. You’ll be inspired by God’s love and the simplicity of the Gospel as you celebrate your new identity, your freedom from sin’s bondage, and your once-for-all forgiveness. The truth is they’re ALL part of Christ’s finished work on the cross!
