Hard Sayings And Holy Ground

Send us a text

Grace without obedience sounds comforting, but it can hollow out your faith. We explore the hard sayings of Jesus and the invitation to walk a narrow road that is both freeing and demanding. From the burning bush to the Gospel of John, we trace one continuous story: the same Lord who holds children on His lap also calls holy ground holy, commands allegiance, and shines light that no darkness can overcome.

We share why the Old and New Testaments belong together, and how cutting off the Old Testament weakens discipleship. You’ll hear how Colossians 1 and John 1 anchor a big view of Christ—Creator, Sustainer, and Redeemer—and why that vision matters when the headlines churn and social media rewards outrage. Algorithms don’t aim to make us wise; Scripture does. So we talk about reclaiming attention, testing narratives, and letting the Word set our steps when noise and deception rise.

Along the way, we address division inside the church, the dangers of treating politics as identity, and the subtle ways contempt steals our witness. Carrying the cross isn’t about repeating Christ’s sacrifice; it’s public loyalty to His way, a daily choice to be known with Him and for Him. That identity steadies us when rumors swirl, scandals trend, and counterfeit signs promise shortcuts. The call is simple and costly: receive mercy, obey with gratitude, stand on the whole counsel of God, and love one another with clean hands and brave hearts.
