Catch the message Doubting God: The Doubts In Your Box by Pastor Scott Jones.

After the resurrection, at the ascension of Jesus, some worshipped him but some doubted. Thomas doubted that Jesus had risen from the dead. And it wasn’t until he saw him that he believed. Jesus met him in his doubt and called him to a deeper faith. This message will invite people to be honest about their doubts with an invitation to those who don’t know Jesus to put their faith in him. As Jesus said to Thomas, “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

Catch the message Proof Of Life: Fully Confident by Pastor Scott Jones.

John concludes his letter with several remarkable statements about the kind of confidence that Jesus followers can experience. First, because of our identity in Jesus, we can know with assurance that we belong to God and have been given eternal life—a life not only infinite in quantity but abundant and full even now. Not only that, but we can also be confident in drawing near to God in prayer. We’re invited to regularly draw close in prayer for our own needs and also those of others. And one last time, John offers the confidence that we are wrapped up in, surrounded by, and kept safe eternally. This truly is a kind of confidence that is worthy of being reminded of often and living in always.

Catch the message Proof Of Life: Victory Lap by Pastor Scott Jones.

People’s futures are at risk. But followers of Jesus are secure. Nothing can ever separate us from the love of God in Christ. Even further, we are told that we can be triumphant in the world we live in. The world may assault our faith, but it cannot rob us of our identity and destiny. But our greatest victory is not found in ourselves, it is found in grounding ourselves deeply in the unchanging reality of our firm foundation in Jesus.

Catch the message Proof Of Life: Seeing God by Pastor Scott Jones.

Many of us would readily admit that we don’t have it within ourselves to love others unconditionally, consistently, and sacrificially. John makes it clear that it comes to us from God Himself. God fills our hearts with love through the Holy Spirit. Since we have been given such an abundance of love from God, we pour that same love out on others. No one has seen God, but when we love, we become proof that there is a loving God.

Catch the message Proof Of Life: False Prophets by Pastor Ben Stapley.

Some lies and theological errors are hard to spot. But the ultimate litmus test of the true gospel is the incarnation—that God became human in the person of Jesus. The Eternal Son becoming human, dying, and rising from the dead is essential to an accurate understating of the gospel. We’re called to be discerning around this theme and hold to the truth of the gospel so that we overcome evil and lead others to find life.

Catch the message Proof Of Life: More Than A Feeling by Pastor Luke Mihail

We’re asked for our PIN to verify our identity. As followers of Jesus, we’ve been given a common PIN: L-O-V-E. It’s how we show proof of life. In this passage, we see a clear contrast between the envy, jealousy, and hatred that consumed Cain and the love that moved Jesus to die on the cross. We’re called to love our brothers and sisters like that, not just with words but with actions. As we live lives of love, the Holy Spirit will testify to our hearts of our status as sons and daughters of God.

Catch the message "Proof Of Life: Sons & Daughters" by Pastor Scott jones.

John never stopped being amazed at the depth of God’s love that made us children of God. We are children of God, recipients of an over-abundant, never-ending, unquenchable, irreversible, eternal, divine love! Not only that, but we have a destiny beyond our wildest imagination! This motivates us to pursue purity and obedience to Christ with even greater passion and devotion. We are meant to live in light and love, not simply to please God, but ultimately because this is our deepest and truest identity.

Catch the message Proof Of Life: In Denial by Pastor Scott Jones.

John doesn’t mince words when he talks about those who spread false teachings. He calls them antichrists because they deny the unchanging truth of Jesus Christ. In John’s day, there was a growing threat called Gnosticism which, among other things, taught that Jesus was not both fully human and fully divine. What is critical for us today is to be deeply and firmly grounded in our understanding and belief in the truth of Jesus Christ—his incarnation, life, death, and resurrection. As we are steadfast and firm in our confidence in Jesus, we will be equipped to spot a fraud and stand our ground against those who may try to lead us astray.
