Series Details

As we stand at the threshold of a new year, I want to ask you: Are you truly living, or are you just passing the time? Many of us approach a new calendar with a list of resolutions, hoping to change our habits, but Jesus came to offer us something much deeper than a habit change. He came so that we might have life, and have it abundantly.

In this message, ‘Living the Life,’ we look at what that abundance really means. It isn’t about the size of your bank account or the absence of trials. In fact, some of the most ‘abundant’ lives I’ve ever seen were lived in the middle of deep suffering. Abundant living is the life of Jesus Christ being lived out through you. It’s the shift from a ‘scarcity mindset’—where we fight for what we want—to an ‘abundance mindset,’ where we rest in what He has already provided. My friend, don’t settle for a dull, boring, or futile existence this year. Let’s look at how to step out of our small shells and into the expansive, joyful life that only the Savior can provide.

Insight for Living Broadcast

I am an intern Bible school student now, and I've been reading the book Improving Your Serve. I considered the book as God's resource for me to learn that there are struggles and pain in serving Him, from rejection and from other people's criticism. As a young lady who wants to serve God, the book added to my courage knowing that God holds my victory. —V. C. from The Philippines
