“Everything happens for a reason.” We say it to comfort people… but is it actually true? In this episode, we unpack one of the most common phrases people assume is biblical—and discover what Scripture really teaches. Romans 8:28 doesn’t mean God causes everything. It means He can redeem anything. If you’re walking through a difficult season, this conversation will remind you: God is not the author of evil Not everything is His will But nothing is wasted in His hands Your hope isn’t in understanding everything—it’s in trusting the God who is present, good, and working.

“Follow your heart.” “Live your truth.” We hear it everywhere—but is it actually true? In this episode, we continue our series That’s Not In The Bible by challenging one of the most widely accepted ideas in culture. What happens when your feelings become your guide and your truth becomes whatever feels right? Scripture gives us a different direction: guard your heart and shape it with God’s truth. In this conversation, we talk about: • Why the heart is not a reliable source of truth • How unguarded emotions can lead to regret and confusion • The danger of self-defined truth • Practical ways to form your heart through Scripture, prayer, and community The truth is—you don’t need better advice. You need a new heart and a better truth to live by. So the question is: Are you following your heart… or forming it? Listen in and discover how real freedom is found—not in your truth—but in His.

What if one of the most common phrases Christians say… isn’t actually in the Bible? “God won’t give you more than you can handle” sounds comforting—but it’s not Scripture. In fact, it points us in the wrong direction. In this message, we kick off our brand new series That’s Not In The Bible by unpacking what God’s Word really says about overwhelming seasons, suffering, and dependence on Him. Looking at the life of the Apostle Paul, we discover a powerful truth: God will absolutely allow more than you can handle—not to break you, but to teach you to rely on Him. If you’ve ever felt crushed, overwhelmed, or like life is just too much… this message is for you. In this message, you’ll learn: Why this popular phrase isn’t biblical The difference between temptation and life’s struggles How God uses overwhelming moments to draw you closer to Him Why you were never meant to handle life on your own Key Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 1:8–9 1 Corinthians 10:13 John 15:5 Stop trying to carry what God never asked you to carry alone. 👍 Like, subscribe, and share with someone who needs this today.

Easter isn’t just a celebration—it’s a response to fear. From the Garden of Eden to the empty tomb, one theme runs through Scripture: ➡️ Humanity says, “I was afraid.” ➡️ God responds, “Do not be afraid.” In this message, we explore how the resurrection of Jesus answers our deepest fears and invites us into something greater. 🔥 Here’s what you’ll discover: Why fear has been with us since the beginning What Jesus’ resurrection actually accomplished What “It is finished” (tetelestai) really means How Easter changes your past, present, and future Because of Jesus: ✅ Your past is forgiven ✅ Your life has purpose ✅ Your future is secure This message is more than encouragement—it’s an invitation. You don’t have to hide from God anymore. You don’t have to live weighed down by fear, guilt, or shame. The question is: Will you receive what Jesus has already done?

Palm Sunday is more than a celebration—it’s a setup. The same crowd that shouted “Hosanna” would soon cry “Crucify Him.” Why? Because Jesus didn’t meet their expectations. But what they didn’t understand then… Revelation makes clear. In this message, we connect: ➡️ Palm Sunday (Matthew 21) ➡️ The New Jerusalem (Revelation 21–22) What we see is a powerful truth: What was celebrated for a moment… God is preparing for eternity. 🔥 In this sermon, you’ll discover: Why Palm Sunday was misunderstood The difference between temporary expectations and eternal transformation What heaven actually looks like according to Revelation The shift from “Hosanna” (Save us now) to “Come” (an invitation into life with God) The King who rode in on a donkey is the same King who will return in glory. The question is: Will you just celebrate Him… or will you follow Him?

Revelation can feel confusing, overwhelming, and even intimidating—but what if we’ve been reading it the wrong way? In this message, we slow down and unpack how to understand the book of Revelation through the lens of apocalyptic writing. Instead of a strict timeline of future events, Revelation reveals spiritual realities that are already true right now. We walk through Revelation 20 and explore the three major views of the millennium—postmillennialism, premillennialism, and amillennialism—and what they each mean. But more importantly, we focus on what actually matters: Jesus is already reigning The victory has already been won The story is not out of control Then we step into the powerful imagery of the Great White Throne judgment and the hope of Revelation 21—a new heaven, a new earth, and God dwelling with His people. This message ultimately brings us to one defining question: Do you belong to Jesus? Because the dividing line of eternity isn’t denomination, theology, or performance—it’s whether your name is written in the Book of Life. If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs hope today. #Revelation #EndTimes #BibleTeaching #JesusReigns #Hope

Revelation 19 is a chapter of victory, worship, and ultimate fulfillment. After the fall of Babylon in chapters 15–18, heaven erupts with praise—declaring “Hallelujah” as God’s justice is revealed and His victory is complete. But this chapter isn’t just about judgment—it’s about a wedding. The wedding supper of the Lamb. In this episode, we walk through the contrast Revelation gives us: Babylon vs. the Bride Empty promises vs. covenant love Temporary power vs. eternal reign We also see Jesus revealed as Faithful and True, the One who doesn’t fight for victory—but enforces the victory He already won at the cross. Revelation 19 ultimately brings us to a personal question: Are we living for what fades… or preparing for what lasts forever? This message is both a wake-up call and an invitation—to turn from the illusion of Babylon and step into the presence of Jesus. Because in the end, there are only two paths: Babylon or the Bride.

In Week 8 of our Revelation series, we walk through Revelation chapters 15–18, where Scripture confronts a topic many Christians tend to avoid—the wrath of God. Rather than being uncontrolled anger, the Bible shows us that God’s wrath is the righteous, pure, and perfectly appropriate expression of His justice. It is the necessary response of a holy God to evil and corruption in the world. These chapters reveal the pouring out of the final bowls of judgment and the ultimate fall of Babylon, a symbol of the world’s systems that lure people away from God through power, wealth, and pleasure. But even in the midst of judgment, the Gospel shines clearly: At the cross, Jesus took the wrath we deserved so that we could receive mercy and grace. Revelation reminds us that the story ends with hope: Evil loses. Babylon falls. Jesus wins. And for those who trust in Him, restoration—not wrath—is the future.

Revelation Week 7 – Revelation 12–14 | Dragons, Beasts, and the Unveiled Lamb Dragons. Beasts. Marks. 666. These are the chapters in Revelation that make people nervous. But what if Revelation 12–14 isn’t meant to confuse us… but to clarify something essential? This week at The Porch Community Church, we step into some of the most symbolic and intense imagery in Scripture — the woman and the dragon, the beasts from the sea and the earth, the mark of 666, and the 144,000 standing with the Lamb. And at the center of it all, we find Jesus — Unveiled. From a Wesleyan perspective, we explore: How Revelation 12 reveals the spiritual battle behind the Christmas story Why Satan is described as defeated — yet still raging What the 42 months really means (evil is limited and on a leash) Why 666 represents humanity’s failed attempt to replace God How the real issue in these chapters isn’t speculation — it’s worship The call of Revelation isn’t fear. It’s faithful endurance. It’s conscious allegiance. It’s undivided loyalty to Jesus. The dragon rages. The beasts demand worship. Babylon seduces. But the Lamb stands victorious on Mount Zion. The question Revelation asks isn’t “Can you decode this?” It’s “Who gets your loyalty?” We remain faithful. We worship Jesus — and Jesus alone.

Episode 242 The 167 Podcast - Kirk Cameron left behind Left Behind by The Porch Community Church

In Revelation Week 6, we journey through Revelation chapters 8–11, where Scripture confronts us with truths that may never make it onto a cross-stitched pillow—but are essential for understanding God’s justice, mercy, and kingdom. As the seventh seal is opened, heaven falls silent. Why? Because the prayers of God’s people have reached Him. The trumpet judgments that follow are not random acts of wrath, but God’s response to injustice, suffering, and humanity’s persistent rebellion. Revelation reminds us that judgment is not God losing control—it is proof that evil will not reign forever. Even in devastation, mercy remains. Over and over, destruction is limited, showing that God is still giving humanity opportunities to repent. Yet Revelation reveals a sobering truth: judgment alone does not change hearts—only grace and love can. Through powerful imagery—the sweet yet bitter scroll, the protected people of God, and the faithful witnesses who suffer yet rise again—we see the pattern of Jesus repeated: faithful witness, suffering, and resurrection victory. This message calls believers to move beyond speculation about end-times details and instead live as faithful witnesses in a shaken world, trusting that Christ’s Kingdom ultimately wins. Key Themes: The silence of heaven and the power of prayer The purpose of God’s judgment and mercy Why repentance matters more than prediction The gospel as both sweet and costly Faithful witness in a resistant world The certainty of Christ’s eternal Kingdom As we enter the Lenten season, this teaching reminds us that God hears our prayers, grace is still moving, and no matter how chaotic the world feels, Jesus reigns—and resurrection is coming.

In Revelation Week 5, we walk through Revelation chapters 6–7 and confront a difficult but honest question: What should followers of Jesus actually expect from life? Many people assume faith in Christ leads to comfort, ease, and fewer problems—but Scripture tells a different story. As the Lamb opens the seven seals, Revelation reveals the spiritual realities shaping our world: deception, violence, injustice, suffering, and death. These aren’t just future events—they are realities believers have faced throughout history and still experience today. Yet in the middle of judgment, Revelation 7 gives us a powerful pause. Before the final seal is opened, God delays judgment to seal His people—a reminder of His mercy, patience, and faithfulness. Followers of Jesus may not be promised escape from hardship, but they are promised belonging, protection in Christ, and hope that cannot be shaken. This message reminds us that while the world may feel chaotic, the Lamb is still on the throne, and those who belong to Him can stand firm. Key Themes: The Four Horsemen and spiritual realities in our world Why Christianity does not promise an easy life God’s mercy in the pause before judgment What it means to be sealed and belong to Christ Hope and stability in uncertain times If life hasn’t turned out as easy as you expected, this message is an invitation to realign your expectations—and anchor your hope in the Kingdom that cannot be shaken.

Have you ever felt locked out — like life is happening and you’re standing on the outside looking in? In Revelation 3, Jesus stands at a door and knocks. In Revelation 4, John sees a door standing open in heaven. What he sees next reframes everything. Before seals are opened. Before judgment unfolds. Before chaos erupts. There is a throne. And it is not empty. This week, we explore Revelation 4–5 — the heavenly worship scene that recenters the church around the reality that God reigns. We look at the Lion who appears as a slain Lamb, and why sacrificial love is not a detour in God’s plan — it is the plan. This is not a message about decoding end-times charts. It’s about aligning our lives with heaven’s song. Because if heaven is giving everything to the Lamb… why are we still giving our best to lesser things? The Lamb is worthy. The throne is occupied. And worship is the evidence that heaven is breaking into earth.

The Rapture: Why Christians Have Never Quite Agreed Where did your understanding of the return of Christ come from? Church? A book series? A sermon? Culture? For many believers, ideas about the rapture, tribulation, and end times didn’t just come from Scripture — they came from a framework we inherited without realizing it. In this episode, we slow down and look underneath rapture theology to the question many Christians were never told was still a question: the millennium in Book of Revelation. What is the “thousand years” in Revelation 20? Is it future or symbolic? Literal or cosmic? And why have faithful Christians never fully agreed? We walk through the three historic views: Premillennialism — Christ returns before a future reign Amillennialism — Christ reigns now; the millennium describes the present age (a view shaped strongly by theologians like Augustine of Hippo) Postmillennialism — the kingdom grows over time before Christ returns You’ll hear how one view came to feel like the Christian position in modern culture, why earlier generations of believers held a more open-handed posture, and how surveys of pastors and believers still show wide disagreement today. This conversation isn’t about predicting timelines. It’s about formation. How we imagine the future shapes how we live now. Is discipleship about escape, or about faithfulness? Is Revelation a roadmap to decode — or a vision meant to shape worship, endurance, and hope? If you’ve ever assumed all Christians agreed on the end times, this episode might surprise you — and free you to hold the conversation with deeper humility, historical awareness, and trust in Christ’s victory.

Four Churches. Four Responses. One Jesus. This week in our Revelation series, we continue through the seven letters in Revelation 2–3 by looking at Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea. Each church represents a different spiritual condition: Compromise under pressure A reputation that hides spiritual deadness Quiet faithfulness with little strength Comfortable self-sufficiency that pushes Jesus outside Though the struggles are different, Jesus’ call is the same: Return. Wake up. Hold fast. Open the door. These letters remind us that Jesus is not distant from His church. He sees, corrects, calls, and invites — not to condemn, but to restore. This sermon ends at the communion table, where the invitation of Jesus becomes personal: not based on how strong our faith has been, but on how great His love has always been.

For many American Christians, the book of Revelation didn’t first come from careful Bible study — it came through a story. Dramatic disappearances. Global chaos. A world spiraling toward judgment. For an entire generation, the end of the world had a plotline, characters, and a clear timeline — and without realizing it, fiction slowly became theology. In this episode, we explore how modern end-times storytelling didn’t just reflect Christian beliefs… it reshaped them. We look at how one particular theological system rose to cultural dominance, why many believers assume it’s the “historic Christian view,” and how that assumption dramatically changed the way Revelation is read in churches today. We’ll talk about: • How Revelation shifted from a pastoral letter to a prediction chart • Why fear became the dominant emotion in end-times teaching • How Jesus often moved from the center while the Antichrist took the spotlight • What the early church, historic Christianity, and the Wesleyan tradition actually emphasize • Why Revelation is less about escaping the world and more about faithful allegiance within it Revelation was not given to satisfy our curiosity about the future — it was given to shape our character in the present. Before beasts, timelines, and speculation, there is a throne. Before destruction, there is renewal. Before fear, there is the Lamb. Maybe the most faithful thing we can do today is learn to read Revelation again — not as a code to crack, but as a call to courageous, steady faithfulness to Jesus.

The book of Revelation begins, centers, and ends with Jesus. In this message from our Unveiled series, we look at three churches in Revelation 2 — Ephesus, Smyrna, and Pergamum — and discover how Jesus speaks to hearts that are drifting, suffering, or tempted to compromise. Ephesus had truth but lost love. Smyrna had suffering but remained rich in faith. Pergamum stayed loyal outwardly while compromise slowly crept in. Through it all, Jesus offers not fear, but invitation — to return, remain faithful, and receive the identity only He can give. The promise of the white stone reminds us we are forgiven, known, accepted, and given a new name in Him. This is not a message about the end times. It’s a message about allegiance, faithfulness, and returning to Jesus.

Welcome to UNVEILED, our series through the Book of Revelation. In this episode from Revelation 1–2, we discover Revelation is not about decoding timelines—it’s about revealing Jesus and calling the church back to its first love. Jesus wins—and that changes everything.

The beginning of a new year is a sacred opportunity to pause, reflect, and renew. In this Covenant Renewal Service, we remember the faithfulness of God and respond by recommitting ourselves to live as His people. Drawing from Scripture, historic prayers, the Apostles’ Creed, and the celebration of Communion, this service centers on the new covenant we live under in Christ—a covenant marked by grace, transformation, and belonging. This episode invites you into a time of worship, confession, prayer, and renewal as we acknowledge God’s goodness and offer ourselves fully to His will in the year ahead. Whether you’re listening at the start of the year or revisiting this moment later, may this service help ground your heart in God’s promises and remind you that His covenant still stands.

Episode 239 The 167 Podcast - Advent Miniseries - The Weary World Rejoices - part 3 by The Porch Community Church

We live in a world of extremes. Everything feels like it has to be one way or the other—even when it comes to love. Is love all grace—“be nice, don’t rock the boat”? Or all truth—“facts don’t care about your feelings”? In this message, we look at how Jesus refuses the false choice between grace or truth. Scripture tells us that Jesus is full of grace and full of truth—not a balance, not a blend, but the fullness of both. Rooted in John 1, this sermon explores: How Jesus is the Word made flesh Why grace and truth arrive together in Christ What it looks like when Jesus embodies both (John 8, Luke 23) How the cross tells the full story of God’s love What it means to live this out in our relationships and as a church At Christmas, we don’t just celebrate a baby in a manger—we celebrate that grace and truth stepped into the world. Whether you lean more toward grace or truth, this message invites us to follow Jesus into a better way: loving well, speaking truth with kindness, and becoming a community that reflects His heart. 📍 The Porch Community Church 📖 Scriptures: John 1, John 8, Luke 23

Episode 238 The 167 Podcast - Advent Miniseries - Part 2 When Joy Feels Fake by The Porch Community Church

Joy. We talk about it. We chase it. We mistake it for happiness. But Scripture tells us something radically different—joy isn’t something you create… it’s something you receive. In this message, Pastor Shannon unpacks the real difference between happiness (situational) and joy (relational)—and how Joy isn’t found in better circumstances, but in a relationship with Jesus Christ. Whether this season brings celebration or deep grief… Joy meets you right where you are. 🔥 In this message you’ll learn: • Why happiness is momentary but joy is supernatural • How Paul could write about joy from inside a prison cell • Why joy is a gift you cannot produce on your own • How to experience joy even in seasons of loss • Why “Joy has a name — and His name is Jesus” 📖 Key Scriptures: Philippians 4:4 (NLT) Philippians 2:18 (NLT) Luke 2:10–11 (NLT) Acts 4:12 (NLT)

The holidays are supposed to be “the most wonderful time of the year”… but for many of us, they aren’t. In fact, studies show that nearly two-thirds of adults experience increased stress and declining mental health during the Christmas season. Between family dynamics, financial pressure, end-of-year deadlines, and the weight of unspoken grief, December can feel more like survival than celebration. In Part 1 of our Advent Miniseries — The Tension of the Season — we step into that reality honestly. Because Advent was never meant to gloss over our pain. It was designed to name it, hold it, and remind us that hope rises in the waiting. We explore the tension between what we long for and what actually is — between joy and exhaustion, celebration and sorrow, expectation and unmet reality. Through Romans 8:22–25, we look at the “groaning” Scripture says all creation experiences… and why that longing is a sign of our hope, not the loss of it. And we revisit the first Christmas — messy, chaotic, and anything but picture-perfect — to remember that Jesus doesn’t wait for the world to be tidy or our hearts to be steady. He comes right into the middle of it. Into the noise, the fatigue, the ache, the silence. Into your reality. If this season feels heavy, complicated, or different than you hoped, you’re not behind — you’re right where Advent meets us: waiting, longing, hoping. In this episode, you’ll be invited to slow down, breathe, and bring your honest heart before God. Because Emmanuel — God with us — is still drawing near. Not when we feel festive… but when we simply make room. Listen now as we begin the journey toward Christmas by acknowledging the tension — and discovering the hope that grows right there in the middle of it.

Hope Has A Name by The Porch Community Church

Can I really make a difference? That’s the question we’re asking this week in our Asking for a Friend series — and the answer is YES. In this message, Pastor Shannon shares the heart behind what it means to be the church — not just attend it. Drawing from Acts 3, where Peter and John encounter a man outside the temple gates, we’re reminded that miracles, transformation, and real faith often happen outside the walls — on “the porch.” At The Porch Community Church, we believe life change happens where Jesus meets real life — in the grocery store, at the ball field, in your workplace, and around your neighborhood. You were made to make a difference. 📖 Scripture References: Acts 3:1–11 Acts 4:13 Ephesians 2:10 1 Peter 4:10 Galatians 6:9–10 💬 Key Takeaway: You don’t need to be extraordinary — just available. God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things.

Episode 236 The 167 Podcast - Lightning Round Part 2 by The Porch Community Church

We’ve all asked it — Is it even worth praying for healing? Especially when the miracle doesn’t come… when the diagnosis doesn’t change… or when the grief still lingers. In this week’s message, Pastor Shannon Patterson shares biblical truth and real hope about how God heals — in three ways: • Through Salvation, when He restores our souls • Through Ultimate Healing, when all things are made new in eternity • Through Temporary Healing, when He brings breakthrough here and now Two out of three are guaranteed — and that changes everything about how we pray, hope, and trust God in our brokenness. 💬 “It’s worth praying for healing — not because we get everything we ask for, but because we trust the One we’re asking.” Scripture: 1 Peter 2:24, Revelation 21:4, Mark 2:10–11, 2 Corinthians 12:9–10

Q&A-Asking For A Friend Week 10 by The Porch Community Church

Episode 235 The 167 Podcast - AI and the Christian by The Porch Community Church

Asking For A Friend – Why Church? Which Church? This week’s Asking For A Friend question is two-fold: Why Church? and Which Church? Do we really need the church to follow Jesus, or can we do it on our own? And if we do need it, how do we know which church is right? Pastor Shannon Patterson walks through Scripture to reveal why the Church is God’s divine plan for His people through Jesus Christ—and what kind of church helps you grow in love for Him. Learn how to: • Recognize what makes a church truly centered on Jesus • Understand the difference between essentials and non-essentials of faith • See your vital role within the body of Christ Whether you’ve been part of a church your whole life or are just beginning to explore faith, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to see the Church in a whole new way.

This week in our Asking For A Friend series, we ask: Is there a seat for me at the Father’s table? Through Luke 15, we explore Jesus’ story of the prodigal son—mud, mess, repentance, and the Father who runs toward us with open arms. Repentance isn’t about guilt or trying harder; it’s about turning home to grace. No matter how stuck or broken you feel, there’s a seat for you at God’s table.

Why Does God Allow Suffering - Asking For A Friend Night Edition by The Porch Community Church

Many of us wonder if faith can just stay between “me and God.” But as Pastor Shannon reminds us, the gospel has always been an invitation meant to be shared. Drawing from Jesus’ parables and the account of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8, we see that God’s design is for our faith to transform not just us—but the people around us. Listen in as we talk about: Why faith can’t remain hidden How invitations open the door to transformation The importance of bold witness in a world full of struggle and pain Whether you’re exploring faith, recommitting, or simply wrestling with the question yourself, this conversation is for you.

A viral rumor is spreading online that the rapture will happen September 23–24, 2025—fueled by TikTok videos, YouTube pastors, and bold predictions tied to the Feast of Trumpets. But what does Scripture actually say? In this episode, we explore the history of failed end-times predictions, examine why date-setting contradicts Jesus’s own words, and unpack the hope and calling Christians have while we wait for His return. Rather than panic or speculation, we’ll focus on what’s clear: living holy lives, sharing the gospel, and being ready to welcome Christ whenever He comes.

This week in Asking For A Friend, we tackle the question: Why does the church talk about money? Jesus says we can’t serve both God and Mammon—and nothing competes for our hearts like money. Discover two biblical strategies to break free from money’s grip and learn how generosity transforms our lives for eternity.

Promises get broken all the time. Maybe by a parent, a friend, or someone who said “forever” but didn’t mean it. No wonder so many people question whether God is any different. But here’s the good news: God always keeps His promises. And one of His greatest promises is this—when you cry out for help, He hears your voice. In this week’s message, Pastor Shannon shows us from Psalm 18 why prayer matters and gives us five reasons we can trust God when we pray: God hears. God responds. God rescues. God strengthens. God turns our cries into praise. As we continue through 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting, let this message encourage you to lean into God’s promise that prayer makes a difference.

This week on The 167 Podcast, we celebrate an unforgettable Sunday—nineteen people stepped into the waters of baptism, each declaring the same life-changing truth: “I’m all in with Jesus.” From fresh starts and answered prayers to generational impact and childlike faith, their stories remind us that Jesus still saves, still heals, and still makes all things new. As a church, we’ve also begun 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting. Week 1 centers on expectancy—living with the awareness that the Spirit of God is already present, leading, and speaking in our everyday lives. Baptism declares, “I belong to Jesus.” Prayer and fasting declare, “I’m ready, Spirit. Move in me.”

Asking for a Friend – Week 3 How do I grow as a follower of Christ? This week, Pastor Shannon tackles one of the most common questions Christians ask: What does it really mean to grow as a disciple? Through John 16, Acts 2, and Galatians 5, we see that growth doesn’t happen by trying harder—it happens by the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. Spiritual growth comes when we prayerfully expect the Spirit to move in every part of our lives. We also introduce 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting, an opportunity for our church family to create space for God to work in powerful ways.

Episode 232 The 167 Podcast - Objections & Questions to “Baptism” by The Porch Community Church

Asking For a Friend: Is Baptism Important? We all have those moments in life that change everything—graduation, a wedding day, a big promotion. For followers of Jesus, one of those defining moments is baptism. But what exactly is baptism? Is it just a ritual? A church tradition? Or is it something much deeper? In this message from our Asking For a Friend series, Pastor Shannon unpacks what Scripture teaches about baptism—why it matters, what it means, and why it’s the next step for anyone who has said “yes” to Jesus. 📖 Key Scriptures: Acts 2:38 Romans 6:4 Colossians 2:11–12 Galatians 2:20 Matthew 28:19 💧 Baptism isn’t about being “good enough.” It’s a public declaration that Jesus is enough. 👉 If you’re ready to take this step, don’t wait. Baptism Sunday is August 24th at The Porch Community Church.
