PODCAST

Nathan Bentley | Tim Ferrara | Blake Wilsford 

This sermon focuses on the teachings of Jesus, specifically the challenging sayings in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The sermon starts by examining Matthew 11, where Jesus addresses the question posed by John the Baptist’s disciples about His Messiahship. The episode explores the context and meaning of the statement, ‘The kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force,” emphasizing the need for proactive faith, spiritual aggressiveness, and sincere humility in following Christ. Pastor Nathan encourages listeners to push past life’s distractions and challenges to seek a closer relationship with Jesus.
