In this message Pastor Chad walks through the all imoprtant role of being an Ananais and a Barnabas in helping others reach their full redemptive potential. What if we all made it our quest to see those around through 2 Corinthians 5:16 eyes...that is, through the lens of their future in LIGHT OF what Christ has done for them on the cross!

Behind Locked Doors - Ministry After Resurrection
In this powerful message, we're invited to explore what it means to join Jesus in His ministry after the resurrection. Drawing from John 20:19-23, we see a blueprint for Spirit-filled ministry that challenges us to step out of our comfort zones. The key elements? Showing up, facing fears, offering peace, sharing our wounds, and embracing the Holy Spirit's power. It's a call to action that reminds us we're not just spectators in God's plan, but active participants. As we reflect on Jesus entering the disciples' locked room, we're encouraged to consider: How can we enter the 'locked rooms' of fear in others' lives? How might our own wounds become windows to God's glory? This message urges us to see ourselves as conduits of Christ's peace and forgiveness in a world desperately needing both.To CONNECT with our church, submit a PRAYER REQUEST, download FREE encouraging material, GIVE to this ministry or FOLLOW US on social media, click the link below!https://linktr.ee/radiantcentralcoast

Small Compromises | Big Consequences
In this powerful message, we're called to remember Lot's wife and the profound lesson her story teaches. The brief but impactful verse from Luke 17:32 reminds us of the dangers of compromise and looking back. We're challenged to consider how small compromises can have big consequences in our spiritual lives. The story of Lot and his family fleeing Sodom serves as a stark reminder of the importance of fully committing to God's path without negotiation or hesitation. This message encourages us to let go of our 'Zohar mindset' - settling for small, manageable goals instead of embracing God's grand vision for our lives. It's a call to radical obedience and trust, urging us to release our grip on what we think we need and fully surrender to God's plan.

Identity in Christ
In this powerful message, we're challenged to embrace our true identity in Christ. The core scripture, 2 Corinthians 5:21, reminds us that we have become the righteousness of God through Jesus. This isn't just a future promise, but a present reality. We're encouraged to see ourselves as God sees us - holy, righteous, and set apart. The message draws parallels between natural birth and spiritual rebirth, emphasizing that just as we instantly become sons and daughters at birth, we instantly receive our new identity in Christ at salvation. This perspective shift can revolutionize our faith walk, freeing us from the burden of trying to earn righteousness and empowering us to live out our true identity. As we internalize this truth, we're better equipped to resist sin and live in alignment with who God says we are.

Choose Your Mama (Hagar or Sarah)
In this message Pastor Chad walks us through Paul's masterful argument and explanation of the GOSPEL through the lens of two mothers from the ancient story of Abraham. Hagar representing religious striving, circumcision, law keeping as a way to earn one's own righteousness OR Sarah which represents living in the grace of Christ and sharing in the life of the Spirit as recipients of Abraham's promise!
