    The RE-Process Project: RETURN & REWARD

    Amy led a discussion on the "reprocess project" focusing on the return and reward of salvation through Jesus Christ. She explored biblical passages about Jesus's return, emphasizing that no one knows the exact timing and encouraging readiness through living a life aligned with Christian principles. Amy discussed the concept of rewards in heaven versus temporary earthly rewards, using examples from the Bible to illustrate the differences between believers and non-believers on Judgment Day. She challenged attendees to reflect on where their hearts are focused and encouraged them to seek God's guidance in aligning with heavenly rewards.

    The RE-Process Project: REGENERATION

    Amy led a Bible study session focused on the "Reprocess Project," specifically discussing the concept of regeneration or rebirth as part of salvation. She explained the process using four key concepts starting with "RE": Rebirth (being born again), Regeneration (the ongoing transformation process), Renewal (renewing the mind through the Word), and Remain (staying connected to God). Amy referenced multiple Bible verses, including 2 Corinthians 5:17, Titus 3:3-7, and John 15:4-17, to illustrate these concepts, emphasizing that true salvation involves a complete transformation rather than just reforming one's behavior.

  3. 77

    The RE-Process Project: RE-CONCILIATION

    Amy hosted this week's WTY LiveStream, focusing on the biblical concept of reconciliation as part of her "Reprocess Project" series. She explained the difference between redemption (a change of ownership through payment of debt) and reconciliation (an exchange from enemy to friend), using biblical verses from 2 Corinthians, Romans, and Colossians to illustrate these concepts. Amy emphasized that reconciliation with God is a gift of grace that believers are called to share with others, and she encouraged the audience not to put limits on God's love. The session concluded with a prayer and an announcement about upcoming content on sanctification, along with information about free resources available on the Christian Youth Network University platform.

  4. 76

    The RE-Process Project: REDEMPTION

    Amy delivered a message about redemption as part of her "Re-process" series, explaining that redemption means a change of ownership through payment. She discussed how sin has ownership over humanity, but Jesus' death on the cross paid the ultimate price to redeem humanity back to God. Amy emphasized that the payment has already been made once and for all, and the response required is for people to accept this redemption by serving God rather than being slaves to sin. She addressed questions about judgment and mercy, clarifying that while judgment will separate believers from non-believers, those who accept Christ's payment will have their debts forgiven through his representation.

  5. 75

    The RE-Process Project: REPENT

    Amy led a discussion on repentance, explaining its biblical meaning and importance. She defined repentance as a change in direction or a complete turn away from sin toward God, using both Hebrew and Greek scriptural references. Amy discussed repentance in three tenses: past (returning to God), present (ongoing need for forgiveness and turning away from sin), and future (continuing to resist temptation and turn toward God). She emphasized that repentance is not a one-time event but an ongoing process for believers, using examples from the Bible including John the Baptist and Peter's teachings. Amy concluded by sharing an acrostic to help remember the key aspects of repentance: Resist the devil, Express genuine sorrow for sin, Repent (past, present, and future), Embrace God's grace, Notice temptations, and Turn away from sin.

    "Ask Amy" Live Q&A: March 2026

    Amy hosted a live Q&A session on YouTube, Zoom, and TikTok where she answered questions about faith and God. She discussed topics including how to point others to Christ without public speaking, prayer practices, obedience, prosperity, and defending Christian truth among believers. Amy emphasized that living a consistent Christian life is the primary way to witness to others and stressed that prayer is a conversation with God rather than following a specific format. She also addressed questions about God's methods of communication and His unchanging nature toward believers who return to Him after straying. The session concluded with Amy sharing a Christian acrostic spelling out "Christian" using words like "celestial hope" and "saving grace."

  7. 73

    The RE-Process Project: RECOGNIZE

    Amy led a discussion on the "Reprocess Project," which explores the fundamental truths of salvation and the essence of Christianity beyond denominational differences. She emphasized that Christianity is unique in that salvation is already accomplished through Jesus Christ's sacrifice, contrasting with other religions that require personal effort. Amy outlined the first step in the reprocess of salvation as "recognize," which involves acknowledging one's sinfulness, the need for a savior, and the exclusive role of Jesus as the savior. She referenced various Bible verses to support these points and highlighted that faith, not feelings, is the instrument through which one receives God's grace. 

  8. 72

    "...saved by grace through faith." (huh?)

    Amy led a Bible study focused on Ephesians 2:1-10, exploring the concepts of grace, mercy, and faith in salvation. She explained the difference between mercy (withholding punishment we deserve) and grace (giving us something we don't deserve), emphasizing that salvation comes through God's gift of grace received through faith, which serves as the instrument for accepting this gift. Amy discussed how believers are "God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works," clarifying that good works are the result of salvation rather than its cause, and stressed the importance of using the "instrument of faith" by making God a priority in daily life through discipline and practice of His Word.

  9. 71

    Chosen is Just the Beginning - Part 2: NOW WHAT??

    Amy led a Bible study session focused on the theme "Chosen is Just the Beginning," building on a previous discussion about what it means to be chosen. She explored how being chosen by God is not based on human merit but rather comes through Jesus' obedience and the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit. The session included an in-depth analysis of Colossians 3:12-17, which Amy presented as a "chosen person's checklist" of behaviors and attitudes to cultivate, including compassion, kindness, humility, and forgiveness. The discussion concluded with a call to action for participants to choose God daily by living obediently and reflecting Jesus' sacrifice in their own lives.

  10. 70

    Chosen is Just the Beginning - Part 1

    Amy led a discussion on the biblical concept of being chosen, emphasizing that this status is not based on personal merit but is a result of God's grace through Jesus Christ. She explored various Bible verses to illustrate that believers are chosen not for their own righteousness but because of their relationship with Jesus, the ultimate "Chosen One." Amy highlighted the contrast between the world's understanding of being chosen and the divine perspective, urging listeners to recognize their calling and live out their purpose. She also announced that the fourth Sunday of each month would be dedicated to answering questions about faith, encouraging participants to submit their inquiries in advance. The session concluded with a prayer and reflections on the importance of faith and action in one's spiritual journey.

    New Year...Same You? [FINAL] Are you living as a New Creation?

    Amy led a Bible study session on the theme of being a new creation, drawing from Ephesians 4 and 5. She discussed the importance of following Jesus' example, being filled with the Holy Spirit, fearlessly proclaiming the gospel, being faithful in suffering, and fellowshipping with others. Amy emphasized that as followers of Christ, they should strive to live differently from the world and let their actions reflect their faith. She also shared her own struggles and vulnerabilities, encouraging the group to support each other in their spiritual journeys. The session concluded with a prayer, and Amy previewed the upcoming topic of being chosen by God, which she described as just the beginning of a deeper spiritual journey.

  12. 68

    New Year...Same You? [PART 6] Fellowshipping

    Amy led a discussion on fellowship, explaining that it is foundational to the Christian faith and is represented by the cross as a blueprint for both vertical (God) and horizontal (believers) relationships. She emphasized that true fellowship begins with a personal relationship with God, who is described as light, and then extends to sharing that experience with other believers. The discussion included biblical references from Acts, 1 John, and Corinthians to demonstrate how fellowship should be a continuous, shared purpose rather than just social interaction. 

  13. 67

    New Year...Same You? [PART 4] Fearless Proclamation

    Amy led a Bible study session focused on the theme of "Fearlessly Proclaiming the Gospel," continuing her "New Year, Same You" series. She explored four common barriers to sharing the Christian message, including fear of embarrassment, lack of knowledge, avoiding opportunities, and feelings of inadequacy. Drawing from various Bible passages, Amy emphasized that believers should overcome these obstacles by relying on the Holy Spirit's power rather than their own abilities. She highlighted examples from scripture, including Peter and John, to demonstrate that sharing the gospel is not about personal confidence but about faith in God's message. The session concluded with a prayer and an update about an upcoming beta test for a related app.

  14. 66

    New Year...Same You? [PART 3: Filled with the Spirit]

    Amy led a Bible study session on the topic of being filled with the Holy Spirit, part of her "New Year, Same You" series. She explained the difference between receiving the Holy Spirit and being filled with His presence, using a science experiment with vinegar and oil to illustrate the concept. Amy discussed the fruits of the Spirit and emphasized that fullness of the Spirit doesn't depend on feelings but on faith and obedience. She addressed questions about gossip, speaking in tongues, and accepting Christianity despite negative experiences with Christians. The session concluded with a prayer and encouragement for attendees to seek fullness of the Spirit by emptying themselves of self.

  15. 65

    New Year...Same You? [PART 2: Follow The Example]

    Amy began a new series focused on spiritual transformation, emphasizing that true change comes from God rather than personal efforts, and encouraged participants to engage in discussion through comments and prayer. She explored the importance of accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior, discussing the challenges and requirements of living out a Christian faith that goes beyond comfort and passivity. The series concluded with teachings on the significance of personal knowledge and relationship with Jesus, focusing on the commands to follow His example through surrender, trust, and commitment.

  16. 64

    New Year...Same You? [INTRO]

    Amy launched a new series called "New Year, Same You" that explores New Year's resolutions from a Christian perspective, emphasizing that true transformation comes from salvation rather than personal reformation efforts. She discussed various biblical stories, including Saul's conversion and Peter and John's boldness, to illustrate how genuine change comes from God's intervention rather than human efforts. The series aims to strengthen relationships with God through understanding themes of reconciliation, transformation, and faith, with upcoming Bible studies and discussions planned to explore these concepts further.

  17. 63

    JUDGEMENT DAY (Part 5 of "The Bible: No Filter")
