You don’t have to hold it all together. So many of us live like the weight of the world is on our shoulders—striving, fixing, doing, and running at a pace we were never meant to sustain. But the truth is that stillness isn’t laziness. It’s surrender. It’s trading our endless striving for the deep security of knowing God. It’s choosing to anchor ourselves in His unshakable presence when everything around us feels uncertain.   In this message, we explore what it means to truly know (yada) God—deeply, personally, and fully. Not just knowing about Him, but walking with Him, trusting Him, and letting His Word and Spirit shape us from the inside out.   You’ll learn: • Why God calls us to stop striving and start trusting • Four ways to truly know God: receive, rely, read, and remember • How prayer—spoken or silent—draws us into deeper intimacy with Him • Why anchoring your life to God’s Word steadies you in every storm   🎧 Watch the full message and breathe deep in His peace 🔔 Subscribe for messages that help you stay anchored to the Word 🙏 Share this with someone who needs to know: they don’t have to strive for what God already offers freely 🌐 sm4.org | Instagram: @santamariafoursquare SOON TO BE VIDA CHURCH!

You don’t have to earn what God already gave you. So many of us live like salvation is something we need to work for — like if we do enough, serve enough, or get it all right, then we’ll be accepted by God. But this week’s message from Ephesians 2:8–10 flips that upside down. The truth? You are saved by grace, through faith — not by works. It’s a gift. Not a paycheck. Not a reward. Just grace. In this message, we explore how easy it is to stumble over that truth — just like the Israelites did. Instead of trusting in God’s grace, they tried to earn their way into His love. But that kind of striving leads to burnout, not breakthrough. Jesus isn’t a barrier in your way — He’s the rock you can stand on. And when you stand in His grace, everything changes. You’ll learn: • Why “being good enough” is a myth that keeps us stuck • How God’s grace frees us from striving and shame • What it means to be God’s handiwork — created with intention and purpose • Why the gospel isn’t just about what you’re saved from — but what you’re saved for You were made on purpose, for a purpose. God’s not asking you to prove yourself — He’s inviting you to trust Him, walk with Him, and live out the good works He’s already planned for you. This is a message for the tired, the burned out, the perfectionists, and the overachievers — anyone who needs to remember that grace is the starting line, not the finish. 🎧 Watch the full message and breathe deep in God’s love 🔔 Subscribe for messages that help you grow in grace 🙏 Send this to someone who needs the reminder: they are already enough in Christ 🌐 sm4.org | Instagram: @santamariafoursquare SOON TO BE VIDA CHURCH!

What if the trials you’re facing are actually growing something deeper in you? Life is full of challenges—but what if those trials aren’t meant to break you, but to build you? In this week’s message, we look at “The Truth About Trials” through the lens of James 1:2–4, which invites us to “consider it pure joy” when we face difficulties—not because trials are easy, but because they have a purpose. God uses every storm, setback, and struggle to develop perseverance, proven character, and a faith that stands firm. Trials don’t mean God is absent—in fact, He’s often most at work in our hardest moments, preparing us for what’s ahead and producing in us something eternal. You’ll discover: • Why trials are inevitable in the life of every believer • How to shift your mindset and embrace God’s purpose in pain • What it means to grow in perseverance and maturity • How faith is tested, strengthened, and rewarded through trials This message isn’t about denying the pain—we acknowledge it. But through God’s Word, we find hope, perspective, and purpose in the middle of it. Your trial has a purpose. Your perseverance has a promise. Your faith is being refined. 🎧 Watch now and let God strengthen your heart through His Word. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages that grow your faith 🙏 Share with someone who’s going through a hard season 🌐 sm4.org | Instagram: @santamariafoursquare SOON TO BE VIDA CHURCH!
