Take Ground Against the Odds

from The Garden Church · host The Garden Church

God doesn’t call you into comfort, He calls you into resistance. In our soft, frictionless version of American Christianity, we’ve confused “easy” with “God.” We treat open doors like divine approval and closed doors like a polite no. But the God who sent His Son into a world that crucified Him doesn’t lead His people by convenience.Isaiah saw the Lord, high and lifted up, and it shattered his small, domesticated view of God. 😳🔥 Seraphim shielding their faces, thresholds shaking, smoke filling the temple, and Isaiah realizing, “I am undone.”Then grace hits, guilt is lifted, sin is atoned for, and the only response is, “Here am I. Send me.”Because the King who was lifted up in glory was lifted up on a cross for you. ✝️Take Ground: Pray with us and consider giving toward what God is building.Give here 👉 https://thegardenaz.churchcenter.com/giving🌎 Learn More: www.thegardenaz.com 🕒 Sundays at 8:00 AM | 9:30 AM | 11:00 AM  | 12:30 PM📲 Stay Connected: Instagram: @thegardenazYouTube: @TheGardenChurchAZ Facebook: The Garden Church 🎙️ Skeptics & Saints Podcast – Apple: Listen Here Spotify: Listen Here 📖 The Garden Church Sermon Podcast – Apple: Listen Here Spotify: Listen Here
