Five Things You Need to Guard | Episode 23

from The Pilgrim's Perspective Hosted by Justin Cooper and Joe Moates

Most services aren't lost during the sermon — they're lost in the driveway, the bedroom, and the group text before anyone ever steps on the platform. In this episode of Pilgrim's Perspective, we unpack how to protect the pre-service so you don't kill the service before it even starts. Last week we talked about not killing the service. This week we back the tape up: your rest, your prayer, your preparation, and the state of your spirit when you walk in the door all decide what God can do in the moment. We look at what Scripture says about getting ready to meet with God and walk through five things every believer should guard — plus the things you don't do before you gather. Whether you're a pastor, a staff member, a volunteer, or someone who just wants Sunday to mean more, this one's for you.
