This sermon emphasizies that a secure identity is found not in worldly achievements but in a relationship with Jesus, who transforms our past and secures our future. The message encourages the congregation to find their purpose by remaining faithful to God's calling and continuing His mission of spreading the gospel.

This sermon argues that effectively sharing the gospel requires three "batteries": a gospel burden, a gospel identity, and a gospel circle. The message emphasizes that by understanding our true identity in Christ's righteousness, we can be freed from shame to actively and lovingly share the precious gospel message with those in our lives who need to hear it.

This sermon celebrates Resonate's nine-year anniversary by presenting seven prayers for its future, focusing on the importance of glorifying God, prioritizing mercy over judgment, and making obedience a joyful desire rather than a burdensome chore. It ultimately argues that a true relationship with God is not about obtaining external blessings but about finding ultimate satisfaction and purpose in Jesus himself, which in turn leads to a life of authentic worship and good works.

This sermon argues that serving Jesus is a radical commitment to His mission, not an attempt to use His power for personal gain or to balance faith with other earthly priorities. It emphasizes that true service is a joyful response to God's grace, rooted in the identity of being saved, rather than a means of earning His favor.

Pastor Ryan's sermon explores the purpose and identity of the church. The main point is that a biblical church is not defined by cultural ideas of self-interest or consumerism but is instead a redeemed community called to live out the gospel by proclaiming it, spreading it, and committing to one another in local fellowship for the glory of Christ.
