August 16, 2026 - Walk by the Spirit - Dr. Nate Millican

Pastor Nate explores the profound call to "walk by the Spirit" based on Galatians 5:16. He emphasizes that Christian maturity is not found in temporary bursts of zeal, but is formed through daily habits, sustainable rhythms, and a "long walk of obedience" in the same direction. By sharing a humorous personal story about the consequences of not being observant, Nate illustrates how slowing down allows believers to be more attentive to God’s guidance and less prone to following the impulses of the flesh. The sermon breaks down who the Holy Spirit is as a personal guide and clarifies that every believer possesses the Spirit's supernatural enablement to win the "spiritual tug of war" against sin. Listeners are challenged to adopt a simple yet life-changing practice for their daily lives: pause, listen, and walk in step with Jesus.
