Do You REMEMBER? // Summer Lean In series (part 6) // Russ P.
from Collective Church Omaha · host Collective Church
"We try to face today's battles without pulling yesterday's victories into the room. God's faithfulness then is His faithfulness now, and remembering means we live like it." — Russ the Bus 😁 Are you trying to fight today’s spiritual battles while forgetting yesterday’s miracles? In this energetic and practical message from our Summer Lean In series, Ministry Director Russ Prothero challenges us to combat "digital amnesia" and the fast-paced hustle of our culture by establishing active rhythms of remembrance. Diving into the story of Joshua and the 12 stones of remembrance at the Jordan River, Russ unpacks the true biblical definition of memory—which is never passive, but always an active response that pulls the power of past victories directly into our present moments. Sharing powerful personal milestones, from a messy first year of marriage to a life-changing lunch at Smitty's Garage, Russ illustrates how intentional markers protect us from wandering into doubt and fear. The message culminates in a powerful parallel between Joshua (Yeshua) and Jesus, our ultimate Cornerstone, leading the church into corporate communion and a unique, hands-on prophetic illustration using physical stones to anchor God's faithfulness in our daily lives. ------------------------------------------- 📖 Scripture References: Bible References & Study LinksJoshua 4:1-3 – https://www.bible.com/bible/59/JOSH.4.1-3.ESV Deuteronomy 6:6-9 – https://www.bible.com/bible/59/DEU.6.6-9.ESV 1 Peter 2:4-6 – https://www.bible.com/bible/59/1PE.2.4-6.ESV ------------------------------------ 00:00 - Summer Lean In: Leaning Into the Encounter 03:27 - Do You Remember?
