“He must increase, I must decrease.”

John the Baptist’s disciples were upset, his crowds were shrinking while Jesus’ were growing. But instead of jealousy, John rejoiced. He knew something we often forget: the goal of life is not self-promotion, but Christ-exaltation.

In this episode, we dig into John 3:22–36 and unpack why your calling, your influence, and even your identity must be received, not achieved.

You’ll discover:

• Your Calling Is a Gift, Not a Contest: Why comparing yourself to others kills your joy and how freedom comes from knowing who you’re not.

• The Beauty of Decreasing: How “He must increase, I must decrease” is not a death sentence for your dreams but a doorway into purpose and joy.

• Belief & Obedience Are Inseparable: John ends with a warning: believing in Jesus is not just nodding along, it’s submitting your life to Him. Refusal to obey is refusal to believe.

This is a call to repentance and re-alignment: step out of comparison, release control, and let Jesus take center stage. The joy you’ve been chasing is found in your decrease and His increase.

Stop clinging to your platform, your pride, or your plans. Lay them down, because when Christ becomes greater, you finally become free.

John 3:16 is the most famous verse in the Bible BUT maybe the most under-lived.

We quote it at football games, print it on coffee mugs, and post it on Instagram. But do we live it?

In this episode, we break open the Gospel in a single breath:

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 NASB)

This is more than a verse, it’s a revolution!! God’s love is not sentimental, casual, or convenient. It is violent, costly, and world-changing. It took a cross, not a Hallmark card, to express it.

Here’s what we’ll unpack together:

• God’s Love Is Greater Than Your Worst Sin – not a feeling, but an action that moves first, sacrifices deeply, and risks rejection.

• God’s Light Reveals Our Real Condition – Jesus exposes, convicts, and calls us out of hiding, not to shame us, but to heal us.

• God’s Invitation Demands a Response – believing isn’t a mental nod; it’s staking your whole life on Him.

This is your invitation to repent, to step into the light, let Jesus cleanse what’s been hidden, and embrace the eternal life that begins right now.

Stop giving Jesus a polite nod. Stake your life on Him. Move from “I know John 3:16” to “John 3:16 has wrecked and remade me.”

2025 feels heavy. Fear, division, and violence dominate the headlines. Truth feels slippery—everyone shouting their own version of reality. Another tragedy every week. Another reason to stay quiet, numb, or distracted.

But this is not the hour for silent survival.

This message takes you straight into the urgency of this moment, through the life and courageous faith of Charlie Kirk—who spent his last 20 minutes publicly proclaiming Jesus before thousands, only to be assassinated mid-event. Instead of silencing the movement, his death sparked an explosion of faith and activism across the nation.

What about you? Are you living today the way you want to be remembered?

In this teaching, we’ll unpack:

• Why the Great Commission is not a suggestion but a mandate

• How to walk with courage and conviction when culture pressures you to stay silent

• 5 practical ways to live sent — carrying God’s Presence, seeking Him in prayer, proclaiming His truth, growing with His people, and moving in His power

Jesus bled and died so you could live bold, authentic, unstoppable. This is your moment. This is your commission.

Will you shrink back—or will you step into the story God is writing through you?
