Matthew 6: Controlled by The Bag

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 19 Mar 2026 03:47:45 +0000

Pastor Jon continues our “Secure the Bag” series with a powerful reminder: the real question isn’t what do I have? it’s what has my heart? God is intimately concerned with our well-being. He cares deeply about what’s shaping our lives. In Matthew 6, Jesus teaches that wherever our treasure is, our heart will follow. Our heart is our capacity to love and grow, so if our treasure is placed in things that can fade, be stolen, or destroyed, our hearts become vulnerable too. What we fix our eyes on shapes everything. Our priorities, our decisions, and our direction all follow. And Jesus is clear. We can’t serve two masters. It’s not about balance, it’s about who truly leads our lives. “God, free me from anything trying to take Your place by having control over me.” 🤍 Each week, Paradigm sermons are posted on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Pocket Casts! 📱 https://www.bible.com/events/49580401 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Psalm 24 and Matthew 25: Secure the Bag

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 12 Mar 2026 05:35:16 +0000

Culture tells us to “secure the bag,” but Scripture invites us to see our possessions differently. Whose bag is it really? Last night’s message gave us a new perspective and a bigger invitation for this topic. In Psalm 24, we see that David understood that God owns it all, and that he has entrusted us to be stewards of the things He has given us in this life. One day we will give an account for how we have stewarded our possessions. Jesus wants us to invest in the things that matter most. Success = faithful stewardship, in the kingdom of God. A faithful steward sees money as a tool, a test, and a testimony. This week: Ask God to make you a steward, and be mindful if how you do reflects your walk with the Lord. Have a great week, Paradigm! See you next Tuesday 🤍 Each week, Paradigm sermons are posted on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Pocket Casts! 📱 https://www.bible.com/events/49576981 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Freedom: Living The Way God Calls Us To

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 5 Mar 2026 14:29:18 +0000

In this message, we had the privilege of hearing from Ken and Carrie Liles who were missionaries that served in Iran. They shared their experiences and encouraged us on how to live faithfully in a world filled with uncertainty. 🌍 One thing they reminded us of: freedom isn’t simply doing what we want, it’s living the way God calls us to live. Even in places where the gospel faces opposition, it continues to move forward. The message of Jesus cannot be stopped by circumstances, politics, or war. God is always preparing a way before us, wherever He calls us to go. They challenged us as young adults to let our hearts break for what breaks God’s heart, to pray for those who are persecuted, to pray for those suffering in war, and to remember that God deeply loves people and desires for them to be saved. No matter what is happening in the world, God’s timing is perfect, His mission is still moving, and He is working through every hardship to bring hope and a future. Let our prayer be: “Lord, break my heart for what breaks Yours.” ❤️ Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Mark 9: Jesus vs Entitled Thoughts

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 26 Feb 2026 05:21:10 +0000

How do you handle entitled thoughts when they appear? In Mark 9, we see an example of how Jesus shows how to deal with entitled thoughts. Jesus identifies the thought, informs the thought, then impacts the thought. We may not always think of entitled thoughts as something we wrestle with, but they are important to address when renewing our minds. Entitled thinking can look like thoughts of, “I deserve better than what I’m getting.” These kind of thoughts will drift you further from Jesus more than any other kind of thoughts, and can be dangerous when we are blind to seeing it in ourselves. Jesus said in Mark 9, “If anyone desires to be first, he will be last.” Remember ✍️ 1: You cannot access greatness without its Author. 2: Combat entitled thinking by caring for the parts of the world in need.

Exodus 3: Overcoming Imposter Syndrome

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 19 Feb 2026 13:55:08 +0000

“Your feelings are real, but they’re not reliable.” From Exodus 3, we’re reminded that God calls ordinary people into extraordinary purpose. Even when insecurity, fear, and impostor syndrome try to speak louder than His voice. Just like Moses, we often make excuses: Who am I? I’m not enough. I don’t know enough. What if I fail? I can’t do this. But God isn’t looking for perfection He’s looking for surrender. He doesn’t need our confidence, our eloquence, or our qualifications. He wants our obedience. Sometimes the very thing standing between us and God’s calling is what we refuse to lay down. When God says “take off your shoes,” He’s asking us to remove whatever separates us from Him: sin, fear, pride, insecurity, or control. God doesn’t just send us, He goes with us. His presence leads. His name empowers. His promises sustain. His power makes the impossible possible. You are called. You are chosen. You are sent. Not because you’re enough, but because He is. 🤍 Each week, Paradigm sermons are posted on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Pocket Casts! 📱 https://www.bible.com/events/49566453 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Luke 15: Feeling Unloved and Unworthy

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 12 Feb 2026 04:50:19 +0000

Feeling unloved or unworthy doesn’t change the truth of who God says you are. 🖤 In Luke 15, we’re reminded that our worth isn’t defined by our failures, our past, rejection, or perfectionism. It’s defined by the Father. We don’t have to earn God’s love. We don’t have to clean ourselves up first. We don’t have to perform, prove, or punish ourselves to be worthy of His grace. God doesn’t meet us with disappointment; He meets us with compassion. He runs toward us. He restores us. He robes us in honor and calls us His own. When we live in thoughts of unworthiness, we live in defeat. But when we live in the truth of God’s love, we live in freedom. You are more loved than you can imagine. You are not lost; you are called. You are not unworthy; you are His child. 🤍 Each week, Paradigm sermons are posted on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Pocket Casts! 📱 https://www.bible.com/events/49563132 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Galatians 10: Disease to Please

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 5 Feb 2026 03:21:38 +0000

People-pleasing may look harmless, but it slowly replaces obedience with approval. In Galatians 1:10, Paul reminds us that we can’t seek the approval of both God and man at the same time. When our value is tied to being useful, liked, or not disappointing others, it leads to exhaustion, compromise, comparison, and fear. The fear of man becomes a trap, but trust in the Lord brings freedom (Proverbs 29:25). The cure isn’t trying harder—it’s trusting deeper. Knowing we are fully known and fully loved by God allows us to let go of man’s approval and walk in obedience, even when it costs us. Less approval. More obedience. Less fear. More freedom. ✝️🤍 Each week, Paradigm sermons are posted on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Pocket Casts! 📱 https://www.bible.com/events/49559689 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Romans 2: How to renew your mind

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 29 Jan 2026 16:59:02 +0000

This week’s message reminded us that the greatest battles we face aren’t always external. Often, the battlefield is the mind. Romans 12:1–2 calls us to resist conforming to the patterns of this world and instead be transformed by the renewing of our minds. We were challenged to recognize that not every thought deserves agreement, that we are not defined by our strongest thoughts. Through Christ, we can take thoughts captive, identify lies, and replace them with truth. God desires dominion over every area of our lives, including how we think. When we invite Him into the process, we begin to walk in clarity, freedom, and victory. Proving what is the good, acceptable, and the perfect will of God. What’s the loudest thought in your head right now? And what does God say about that? Missed last night’s message?

Romans: No More Condemnation

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 3 Dec 2025 18:08:23 +0000

Living free from condemnation! Romans 8 reminds us that God doesn’t label us by our past—only He gets to name us, and He calls us His. When we stop trying to live in our own strength and surrender our lives and minds to Christ, our focus shifts and our lives start to look different. The evidence of a changed heart? A life being changed by Jesus.

But Romans 6 reminds us: ➡️ God’s truth about you is real. ➡️ You’ve died to sin and get to live with Christ. ➡️ In Him, you have the power to get unstuck.

Death is the most obvious reminder that something in our world isn’t right. We weren’t created to die — sin brought death into humanity through Adam. But just as death entered through one man, life and hope come through another — Jesus. 🙌 We don’t have to fear death because Jesus defeated it. He’s our victory, our forgiveness, and our meaning. The real question is… what’s your plan after death? Because death is certain — but in Christ, so is life.

The Benefits of a Relationship with God ✨ When you have a relationship with God, everything changes. 💭 It puts your problems in perspective—because even your suffering has purpose. God uses it to build endurance, character, and hope that never disappoints. 🙌 Our relationship with God is rooted in His love—undeserved, unearned, and unshakable. ❤️ Through Jesus, we’ve been justified, reconciled, and given access to peace that the world can’t offer.

“Dying for Access” 🔑Pastor Jon dives into Romans 3 where we are reminded that righteousness isn’t earned—it’s accessed. Through Jesus, we’ve been given direct access to God, not because of what we’ve done, but because of what He’s already done. 💡 The Promise of Access: It’s for everyone who believes. 💰 The Price of Access: Jesus paid it all—justified, redeemed, and set free. ⚡ The Power of Access: Nothing we do earns it, but everything changes when we believe it.

Romans: We Need CPR

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 2 Oct 2025 15:42:19 +0000

Pastor Chad digs deep into Romans 3 and reminds us of the weight of sin and the beauty of the gospel. ✨ Paul shows us that we all fall short—none of us are righteous on our own. Sin isn’t just something we stumble into; it’s what we naturally choose. But the good news is that God, in His justice, doesn’t leave us there. 🙌 The law reveals our brokenness, but it also points us to our desperate need for a Savior. True righteousness doesn’t come from what we do—it comes through faith in Jesus Christ. 💜 Once we understand the depth of our need, we can fully embrace the hope and freedom found in Him. 🕊️ Missed last night’s message?

Romans: Something is Broken

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 17 Sep 2025 16:21:40 +0000

Pastor Chad continued our Romans series by talking about the wrath of God. In times like these, it’s not always easy or comfortable to think about God’s wrath. But Pastor Chad reminded us that despite those feelings, we actually need God’s wrath. If grace is God’s love, His wrath is a reflection of His perfect justice. 🙏 Romans 1:18 says: “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness.” (NKJV) God’s wrath isn’t impulsive—it’s deliberate. It’s against those who reject good and embrace evil. We’re living in a time where we’re witnessing His passive wrath on a society that has lost respect for life and morality. In these times, we need to fall to our knees and repent. 🙌 Let His wrath help us look within, identify the wickedness in our own hearts, and recognize the brokenness in the world so we can bring God’s hope and grace to others. ✝️ Missed last night’s message?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 4 Sep 2025 00:39:02 +0000

What if revival isn’t an event, but a new normal? In this Revive Week message, guest speaker Drew Worsham (pastor, church planter, and Christian illusionist) opens Acts 4 to show how the early church lived with a clear message, were marked by Jesus, and were motivated by the cross, and why we can’t “come have revival and then go back to normal.” Drew shares a memorable Rubik’s Cube illustration, powerful gospel clarity, and a call to move from performance to proximity to Jesus. If you’ve ever felt spiritually “scrambled,” this message will help you place your life in the hands of the One who can truly transform it. Key Scriptures: Acts 4:1–22; Ephesians 2:1–5; John 15:1–5; Romans 1:16 Big Idea: The gospel isn’t about making bad people good; it’s about making dead people alive in Christ. 3 Anchors from Acts 4 Message Was Clear — “There is salvation in no one else…” (Acts 4:12) Marked by Jesus — People could tell they had been with Jesus (Acts 4:13). Motivated by the Cross — “We cannot help but speak…” (Acts 4:20).

Multipliers: Becoming Multipliers

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 28 Aug 2025 03:26:30 +0000

Pastor Phil wrapped up our Multipliers series with such a powerful reminder: God’s plan has always been to build Himself a family and a kingdom without end (Gen. 1:26–28). 🌎 From the very beginning, God called us to:➡️ Be fruitful → Evangelism➡️ Multiply → Discipleship➡️ Fill the earth → World Missions But here’s the truth: multiplication starts with fruitfulness!! The mark of maturity isn’t just growing for ourselves, but reproducing—raising up spiritual sons and daughters who can multiply too! ✖️ We are the bride of Christ, and intimacy with Him is what produces fruit. Will we be a barren bride, or a fruitful one? Jesus said, “By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit” (John 15:8). 🙏🏾 So we have to ask ourselves: What will you live for, and what will you give your life to? Missed the message?

Multipliers: The Means of a Multiplier

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 7 Aug 2025 04:32:48 +0000

Ananias said, “Here I am, Lord.” And everything changed. 🙌 This Tuesday, Pastor Jon talked about what it really means to be a disciple — not just someone who believes, but someone who follows. 👣 A disciple gives Jesus attention, availability, and authority. And when God calls, disciples say YES — even when it’s uncomfortable. We make the choice to:💬 Confess our fears🔥 Fight apathy🤝 Reject self-reliance🌱 Embrace the quiet work of multiplying the Gospel The proof? Transformation. Saul went from blind to bold — from feared to faithful. Discipleship isn’t just about knowing Jesus. It’s about becoming like Him. Let’s be people who say, “Here I am, Lord.” 🙏 Missed last night’s message?

Multipliers: The Method of the Multiplier

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 30 Jul 2025 23:31:16 +0000

Sacrifice isn’t something we grow out of as Christians—it’s the foundation of our faith. 🙏🏽 Last night, Pastor Chad continued our Multipliers series with a message on The Method of the Multiplier — and it all comes down to this: 1. Worship Jesus 2. Lay down your life for Him 3. Follow Him wholeheartedly You can’t make Jesus known while trying to stay in control or clinging to things that are holding you back from the purpose God has placed inside you. Jesus said in John 12:24 “Unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain…” 🌾 https://www.bible.com/events/49470193 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Just like sunflowers naturally turn toward the light for life, our hearts were made to turn toward Jesus for abundant life🌻 Lastnight Pastor Chad broke down Romans 6:23 which reminds us that sin brings death—but God offers a free gift: eternal life through Jesus.

Soft Launch: Launching Danger

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 3 Jul 2025 02:57:06 +0000

Last night was a fun one — but Pastor Jonathan also got very real with us! We continued in our dating series, Soft Launch, by identifying some of the dangers that can sneak into how we date: 💔 Dating at a distance from God – Are we dating powerlessly or power-filled? 👥 Dating without community – Who’s helping you see what you might miss? 🌍 Dating like the world – Are we compromising truth for convenience? 😶 Dating like it doesn’t matter – Because it does matter. God has more for us — even in our relationships. Let’s date with purpose, power, and people around us. See you next week!! Missed last night’s message?

Soft Launch: Preparing to Launch

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 26 Jun 2025 01:31:59 +0000

Last night, Pastor Chad kicked off our new series “Soft Launch,” focused on dating in 2025. He reminded us that preparing for relationships starts long before we meet someone. We need to be intentional about getting ourselves ready to date and eventually start a family. Here’s how: 1. Grow biblically 2. Live sacrificially 3. Assume responsibility We also need clarity on what we’re looking for—alignment in faith, family values, and a shared vision for the future. The Bible gives us a framework for recognizing a godly spouse, especially through passages like John 29 and Proverbs 31. We were encouraged not to rush into dating. Take time to really get to know someone—talk to their friends, observe their character, and seek God’s wisdom. And most importantly, stay open to what the Lord may bring. Be willing to make or take the offer when the time is right. This is about launching with purpose, not pressure. Missed last night’s message?

Rest On Us: Spiritual Warfare

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 5 Jun 2025 15:15:33 +0000

Pastor Phil continued our “Rest on Us” series with a powerful and timely message on spiritual warfare. As children of God, it’s essential that we recognize both who we are fighting against and how to prepare for the battle. Spiritual warfare is real—just as real as the physical world we live in. Every day, we are engaged in a battle that isn’t visible to the natural eye but has very real consequences. If we don’t understand our adversary, we risk being overcome. That’s why awareness and preparation are vital. Ephesians 6:12 reminds us of the true nature of our struggle: “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.” Satan is a master of deception. He knows how to plant seeds of doubt in our minds, twist the truth, and build arguments that subtly turn us away from God. His attacks often come in the form of mental and emotional warfare—aimed at discouraging us, confusing us, and making us question our identity in Christ. But we are not powerless. Through God’s Word, we learn to take every thought captive and make it obedient to Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5). Instead of being ruled by our feelings, we are called to stand on godly truth—truth that doesn’t shift with emotion or circumstance. The blood of Jesus has broken the chains of sin and shame. We are no longer captives. Satan wants us to forget that—weakened, distracted, and bound by lies. But God calls us to remember who we are and to walk daily in the freedom He has already secured for us. Missed last night’s message?

Rest On Us: The Holy Spirit Gives Gifts

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 29 May 2025 01:22:01 +0000

The Holy Spirit isn’t just with us—He equips us! Last night we were reminded by Pastor Chad to: 1️⃣ Discover your gift – God has already called and equipped you (Romans 11:29). 2️⃣ Develop it – Surrender it back to Him and grow in it (Romans 12:1-2). 3️⃣ Deploy it – Use it not for yourself but to glorify God (Romans 12:3-8). 🎁 Your gift isn’t about you—it’s about Him.

Rest On Us: How to be filled with the Holy Spirit

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 14 May 2025 21:02:13 +0000

Last night, Pastor Chad led us through week two of our new series, “Rest on Us.” In week one, we explored who the Holy Spirit is. This week, we focused on what it means to be filled with the Holy Spirit. It’s important to remember that the Christian life isn’t about striving to earn God’s approval, but about surrendering to the Holy Spirit and allowing Him to work in and through us. Instead of relying on our own strength, we are called to walk in step with the Spirit. We can’t please God when we live according to the flesh. Some of the ways we resist the Spirit include quenching, rejecting, or grieving Him. When we quench or reject the Spirit, we extinguish His flame and harden our hearts toward Him. We grieve the Spirit when we choose sin and return to the ways of death. To be filled with the Holy Spirit, we must be led and controlled by Him. This isn’t a one-time event—it’s a daily act of surrender, asking God to fill us afresh with His Spirit. Missed last night’s message?

Proverbs: Wisdom and Alcohol

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 23 Apr 2025 21:46:26 +0000

Pastor Chad came with a great message last night preaching on Proverbs 23 about alcohol — not just the bottle, but the battle behind it. 5 Warnings We Can’t Ignore: 1. It can cause problems – What are you lingering around? 2. It looks good… at first – It may sparkle, but it bites. 3. It poisons – Some of us know the sting too well. 4. It impairs – Convictions get blurry when you’re not sober. 5. It consumes – “You don’t know what you’re willing to risk for the bottle.” Drunkenness is the sin, not the sip — but wisdom is knowing where the line is. If you’re struggling in your relationship with alcohol don’t be afraid to seek the resources you need! -Call the Alcohol Abuse Hotline: 1-800-662-4357 -Consider Re:Gen At Abundant Life -Schedule an appointment with Abundant Life’s Counseling Center Missed last night’s message?

Proverbs: Getting Wisdom

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 10 Apr 2025 01:53:36 +0000

Last night, Pastor Chad began week two of our sermon series on Proverbs by delving into the topic of wisdom. Proverbs, recognized as one of the wisdom books in the Bible, describes wisdom in chapter eight as “better than rubies.” So, what exactly is wisdom? Wisdom is the skill of navigating life with understanding, recognizing that all aspects of life are interconnected. It equips us to successfully navigate challenges and make decisions with insight. Wisdom goes beyond knowing right from wrong; it is the strength and resolve to do what is right, even when it’s difficult.

Proverbs: Don't be a fool

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 3 Apr 2025 01:51:55 +0000

With a new month of Paradigm comes a new series 🥳 And what better way to kick off a new series titled “Proverbs: Don’t Be a Fool” than on April Fool’s Day? Last night, Pastor Chad asked us, “What kind of fool are you?” First, we need to figure out what the Bible considers a fool. It’s not just a derogatory term; it’s more of a diagnosis. According to Proverbs 1:7, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.” We know that a fool is someone living their life disconnected, which means a) they deny that God is the creator (Proverbs 8:27-31) and b) they deny the problem of sin (Proverbs 16:25). When we’re trying to figure out where we can gain more wisdom in our lives, we don’t want to be the kind of fool who is simple and believes everything he hears (Proverbs 14:15). Are we easily influenced, or do we think critically? We also don’t want to be the scorner who believes he’s always right (Proverbs 15:12) or hates knowledge (Proverbs 13:20). Are we able to accept biblical correction, and do we listen when the Lord convicts us? Most importantly, we must remember that we can all be fools in one way or another, and the Bible helps us acknowledge that. But it wasn’t written solely for us to learn how NOT to be fools; it was written for us to understand that we must admit to God our foolishness and that we need Him to save us from it. 🕊️ Missed last night’s message?

Headed West: Greater Expectation

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 26 Mar 2025 18:23:56 +0000

We just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who showed up last night, and thank you to the people who sacrificed their finances according to God’s will. 🎉 Last night, Pastor Chad concluded our “Headed West” series by discussing greater expectations. He asked us three questions that we should be asking ourselves: 1️⃣ What am I expecting of God? God wants to do wonderful and marvelous things in our generation and in our lives, but we must believe and expect that of Him. 2️⃣ How am I preparing for God? If we expect God to move through us and around us, then that should be affecting us TODAY. 3️⃣ What step am I taking toward God? Pastor Chad spoke to us about the story of Joshua—how Joshua was living in a uniquely spiritually open generation, a generation that God had promised deliverance to. In order to be free from the Egyptians, they needed to cross the Jordan. God told them that He would stop the waters of the Jordan for them to cross, but first, they needed to step into the waters themselves. 👣 God will ask us for a small step so He can make a big step for us. This is why we asked you to give sacrificially. Our small steps will bring wonderful and marvelous workings to the Johnson County Campus. 🕊️ Missed last night’s message?

Headed West: Together

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 19 Mar 2025 22:05:34 +0000

As God moves and guides us to a new location, it’s important to remember that we’re not doing this individually, but as a collective—we’re headed west together. 🚗 Last night, Pastor John asked us two questions to help us connect in community and address the isolation we see in today’s society. Whose corner are you carrying? There are four corners of community: 1️⃣ We need to belong internationally, knowing who we’re walking with and where we’re headed. 2️⃣ Sharing openly; let’s not hide behind layers that can paralyze our souls. We should push into each other and be honest with one another. 3️⃣ Engaging relationally; it’s important to draw closer together as a community. 4️⃣ Responding biblically means consistently asking ourselves, “How can I take my people to Jesus?” It’s about taking care of people and healing them as we go. Who’s carrying your corners? 🫂 In Mark 2:6-12, the tools the men used to carry the man to Jesus were his mess. We don’t have to go around our weaknesses to get to Jesus; we can use them as leverage to get there. The mess becomes the method. Missed last night’s message?

Headed West: How are we headed west?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 13 Mar 2025 01:39:08 +0000

Paradigm is coming to Johnson County! We continue the series "Headed West" by answering the question how are we headed west? Answer: by worshiping, evangelizing, serving, and trusting the Lord in all things. We are not just moving west physically, but we are moving west with a Godly purpose of reaching lost souls! All great movements of God start with prayer, so pray that God will move the people of Johnson County as we head west! https://www.bible.com/events/49403864 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Headed West: Why are we going west?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 5 Mar 2025 21:20:22 +0000

As some of you may know, at the end of this year, we’re opening a third location for Paradigm at our Overland Park campus! Last night, Pastor Chad started a new series discussing the necessity of this move called “Headed West.” 🚗 So why are we headed west? 1️⃣ The need is great! In Romans 10:1-4, Paul talks about his adamancy to save his people. He describes the Israelites as people who have a zeal for God but are ignorant of His righteousness and the salvation He offers. In their ignorance, they seek to establish their own righteousness. Our generation today is a lot like the Israelites of Paul’s age. With the increase of mental health issues, there is also an all-time high of spiritual openness in our society. 2️⃣ The message is clear. The perfect response to that spiritual openness is Jesus. God has called us to herald this message and make it clear: we are only saved by calling upon the name of the Lord. We do not have to earn salvation; by believing in Him, we earn righteousness and escape condemnation. No one is too far gone from the mighty salvation of Jesus. 🤍 3️⃣ The time is now! We are living in a unique cultural movement where the need for Jesus is great, and people are more open than they have ever been before. We, as Christians, are the strategy to preach the word of God. God has always used people to reach other people. No matter the season you’re in, the time is now to go all in spreading the word of God. 🕊️ Missed last night’s message?

Quarter-Life Crisis: Friendship Crisis

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 27 Feb 2025 01:22:50 +0000

Last night we wrapped up our Quarter Life Crisis series! Pastor Phil led us in a message exploring how the choices we make today shape our future: ✨ God has a plan for your life… and so does the enemy. Which path are you choosing? 👥 Your inner circle matters. One of the most important decisions you’ll ever make is who you allow into your life. Choosing your friends is choosing your future. Who are you surrounding yourself with? 🔍 Three types of people: • Wise – Led by the Spirit and God’s Word. • Foolish – Led by the desires of the flesh. • Wicked – Led by the demonic. Who’s influencing your journey? Let’s choose wisely and walk in the freedom Jesus offers! See yall next week 🫡 Missed last night’s message?

Quarter-Life Crisis: Promises for a Relationship Crisis

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 12 Feb 2025 22:00:45 +0000

God’s promises are bigger than any crisis, yet oftentimes we tend to forget that He desires good for us! Last night Pastor Jon reminded us of a few of Gods promises as we navigate through relationship crisis. Promise #1: A promise to believe (Jeremiah 29:11) ➡️ Are you more focused on what others think than what God says? Trust His plan! Promise #2: A promise to walk in (2 Corinthians 12:7-10) ➡️ His grace is more than enough—lean into it! Promise #3: A promise to return to (Psalm 23:1-3) ➡️ The Lord restores your soul. Let Him lead you! God wants to redeem what has been broken in your life, so hit the floor, catch the bats, and patch the holes! God’s got you—hold onto His promises! https://www.bible.com/events/49389989 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Quarter-Life Crisis: How to Navigate a Work Crisis

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 5 Feb 2025 17:59:20 +0000

So far in our Quarter Life Crisis series, we’ve covered how to navigate a crisis and the insecurities that come with it. Last night, Pastor Chad went even further and talked about something we can all relate to: work. Most of us are just working towards the weekend, but God gives us a new purpose and perspective in our careers. God wants us to be people of integrity who represent Him, and He also wants to have a relationship with us. We can apply this to our jobs and careers by: 1️⃣ Working hard and resting well 2️⃣ Talking to people about God and your relationship with Him 3️⃣ Reporting back to Him and inviting Him into all areas of your life, including your workday, every day!

“Quarter Life Crisis” continues! Last night, we tackled a struggle we all face—insecurities. So often, we try to handle insecurities by: 1️⃣ Hiding in our crisis 2️⃣ Dismissing God’s promises 3️⃣ Questioning God 4️⃣ Doubting His call on our lives But here’s the good news—God meets us in our insecurities and speaks truth over us in a way only He can.

At Odds: Let That Stuff Go

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sun, 8 Dec 2024 22:45:07 +0000

Last night, we took forgiveness a step further and Pastor Chad spoke about how to let that stuff go truly. Using the story of Joseph, his brothers, and his firstborn son Manasseh, we learned how to let that stuff go! Just as Joseph's brothers had caused pain and suffering, many of us have experienced seasons of hurt too. Now, we don't have to go around naming all of our firstborns Manasseh (I forgot; I let that go in Hebrew), but we can learn from Joseph's ability to trust God's plan and let go of the hope of having a better past. If he hadn't, our savior might not have been born. Imagine what God has in store for you when you let it go and put your trust in His divine plan for you. See you next Tuesday for the last Paradigm of 2024! "But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive. Now therefore, do not be afraid; I will provide for you and your little ones.” And he comforted them and spoke kindly to them."

At Odds: Forgiveness

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 28 Nov 2024 20:13:16 +0000

Forgiving others who has sinned against you can often be, at best, difficult. At worst, it can seem nearly impossible. Jonathan Clark continues our At Odds series to address what the Bible says about forgiving others. Forgiveness is not about ignoring or forgetting about someone's trespasses. Forgiveness is tending to a debt, ready to absorb its cost, and setting them free. The Lord has unfathomable grace! He forgave us and will always forgive us, and calls us to do the same for others! See you next Tuesday, Paradigm! Happy Thanksgiving! "And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you."

At Odds: How to Handle Conflict

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 20 Nov 2024 21:05:17 +0000

Conflict can be difficult to navigate. Last night Pastor Chad showed us how we can handle conflict with others in a Christ-like way. 1️⃣ Ensure it’s a sin before reacting (95% of the time, let it go). 2️⃣ Take action: Don’t gossip, wallow, or avoid it—go directly to the person (Matthew 18:15). 3️⃣ Approach with clarity: Speak in truth and love. 4️⃣ If needed, widen the circle with a neutral mediator (Matthew 18:16-17). 5️⃣ Lower expectations and choose forgiveness, showing God’s love but protecting your heart. The best way we can learn how to resolve conflict is to do it. This week we challenge you to make amends wherever you may need to 🤍🕊️ We love you, Paradigm! See you next Tuesday!

Chad takes us into our new series "At Odds", to see what the Bible says on conflict and what unresolved conflict can do to our lives if left unsettled. It can tear us apart and prevent us from living a life that God intended for us.

Paradigm: God is in Control

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 6 Nov 2024 22:48:12 +0000

When life feels chaotic, remember: God is in control. From the smallest moments to the biggest struggles, He is sovereign. We may not have control, but we can trust that He does. When things don’t go as planned, instead of clinging to frustration or things of this world, turn to Him in faith. Everything we face—good or bad—is being worked out for our good. Rest in the assurance that Jesus is alive and there’s hope to come. 🕊️ “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. “ Romans 8:28 Missed last night’s message?

Titus: Woman of God

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 2 Oct 2024 18:28:47 +0000

Last night, we got to hear from Chelsea Glover, who spoke on the ingredients of a woman of God. Titus 2:3-5 shows us that a woman of God embodies strength and grace, curbing her passions while nurturing deep love for her husband, children, and others. With discernment and self-control, she remains pure and set apart, guarding her home and being a blessing to those around her. In her obedience, she honors her husband. She reflects a beautiful life of faith and purpose in what God has called her to. 💕 We love you, Paradigm! See you next Tuesday! Missed last night’s message?

Titus: Man of God

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 25 Sep 2024 18:49:16 +0000

Being a man of God means embodying integrity, reverence, and a life changed by faith. As Paul instructs, we should be sound in faith, love, and patience. Are these things evident and increasing in your life? Last night, Pastor Chad spoke on what it looks like to be a man of God. Titus 2:1-8 tells us that for young men, sober-mindedness is key—it’s about curbing passions and showing power under control. Challenge yourself and other men of God to live exemplary lives, speaking with soundness and ensuring our behavior is above reproach. Are we truly reflecting Christ in our lives? Let’s rise up and lead with purpose. 🙌🏼🙌🏾🙌🏿 Missed last night’s message?

Titus: The Leadership Ladder

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Tue, 24 Sep 2024 18:20:51 +0000

What ladder are you climbing? Are you stewarding well the things God has given you? Tuesday, Jon Clark continued our Titus series on leadership by examining what the apostle Paul uses to describe a leader. Titus 1:5-16 is Paul’s description of what a leader (bishop) is and is not, as well as what a leader’s role is. God did not stay in heaven looking down on His people and abandon them, but God came down the ladder as the Savior to serve and save His people! Paul followed Jesus’ example, an example that we can follow as well. 🪜 https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49319666 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Titus: A Vision For Godly Leadership

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 19 Sep 2024 19:54:05 +0000

Who’s leading you in your life? Is there someone you’re leading spiritually right now? How do we become Godly leaders in our daily lives? We look to those who are ahead of us in the race, follow them, and submit to where they may send us! Chad kick-started a new series last night diving into the book of Titus, where Titus learned to be a leader by following one of the greatest leaders in the Bible: Paul. We are all called to lead, and we are all capable of leadership. Paul called himself a servant of the Lord. That is what being a leader is: serving others. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49316278 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

How to Have Abundant Life

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 7 Sep 2024 02:11:09 +0000

Are you living an abundant life? On Tuesday, Pastor Chad Glover taught on How to Have Abundant Life. John 10:10 shows us that the devil is a thief, and his plan is to kill, steal, and to destroy the life God calls us to live, but Jesus has come to bring us life and to have it abundantly. The enemy is out to steal our attention to corrupt our minds, our affection to God, our identity, and our purpose. What is the enemy trying to steal from you? How is he trying to do it? God’s purpose for each of us is to know him personally, to save us from us from our sin, and to use us to build his kingdom. Are you trying to uphold the appearance of living a good life, while spiritually dead on the inside? There is a difference between truly living and merely existing. So, how can you live the abundant life? Abundant life is the obedient life– to walk out your faith and trust in God through asking forgiveness of your sin, living in freedom of sin, cultivating a relationship with Jesus, and living on mission for Jesus.

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 4 Sep 2024 21:05:03 +0000

The church is more than a building ⛪️ —it’s a community of believers united by faith in Jesus 🙌🏻🙌🏼🙌🏽🙌🏿 (Acts 2:40-47). To fully live out biblical Christianity, we need to be part of a local church and commit to its mission and leadership (Hebrews 13:14-17). If you’re not connected yet, you’re missing out on one of life’s greatest gifts. If you are, go all in and embrace the full blessing of community. 🤍 If you don’t have a church home, we would love for you to join us at Abundant Life!

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 8 Aug 2024 14:21:42 +0000

Honoring Your Parents? This can be SO HARD as a young adult who is navigating making so many decisions. As followers of Christ, God calls us to honor our parents, and we don't want to be people who cherry pick what's easy to do in the Bible and leave the rest. This week we talked about 1. What is honor? 2. How do I honor my parents? and 3. Why does it matter? Though this may be hard, we want to remind you, "Things are better when you do things the Designer's way" - Chad Glover. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49299296 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Ships: The Art of Friendship

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 7 Aug 2024 18:42:25 +0000

True friendship is more than companionship; it’s made up of selflessness, sacrifice, and security. Like Jonathan and David, true friends lay down their lives for each other, stand side by side in every season, and offer a seat at the table despite the challenges. Their bond reflects God’s love, blessing each other through thick and thin. Let’s seek out friendships that embody these qualities, walking together in faith and grace, while also striving become this type of friend. “Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up. Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; But how can one be warm alone? Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” ‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭4‬:‭9‬-‭12‬ ‭ Each week, the Paradigm sermons are posted on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Pocket Casts as free resources for you to listen to the word if you miss a week, want to re-listen, or even share with a friend! 📱 https://www.bible.com/events/49296019 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Paradise: What Are We Going To Do In Heaven?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 27 Jul 2024 23:36:41 +0000

What are we going to do when we get to heaven? How will things we experience in life now compare to what we experience then? Last night, we looked at these things through the lens of Psalm 16:11, "You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore." We looked at how work and rest, relationships, emotions, entertainment, and worship will all be different in Heaven. These things occupy our time here on Earth, but each will be the most satisfying in the place that the Lord is preparing for us. We will never be able to fill any void with anything but the Lord's presence; there we will find true joy and pleasure. "But, as it is written, "What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him"- these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God." 1 Corinthians 2:9-10 Each week, the Paradigm sermons are posted on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Pocket Casts as free resources for you to listen to the word if you miss a week, want to re-listen, or even share with a friend! https://www.bible.com/events/49292941 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Paradise: A Sermon on Hell

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Tue, 23 Jul 2024 02:10:45 +0000

Hell is a topic many people have misconceptions about. What is it exactly? It is an eternal separation from God and Jesus made teaching about hell a priority. “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23). We are all filled with sin, but those who build their identities on anything other than Jesus Christ will only be disappointed with the result, here on earth and all of eternity. We encourage you all to invite the people in your life to surrender to the gospel, invite them to Paradigm tomorrow night, and share this sermon with them!

Paradise: The People in Paradise

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sun, 14 Jul 2024 19:58:26 +0000

What cross are you on? Jonathan Clark continued our Paradise series last night, where we look at the two men who were crucified and the left and right of Jesus while Jesus was on the cross. The man on Jesus's left mocked Him alongside the crowd, but the man on the right saw that something was different about Jesus, so he asked, "Will you remember me?". Jesus responded, "Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise." (Luke 23:39-43) Are you on the cross of revolving sin and anguish? Where you try to solve your problems on your own, but you can't seem to change? Or are you on the cross of salvation, where you recognize your need of a Savior? Jesus IS that Savior. We can trust Him with our lives that His life and His works are what saves us and gets us into heaven. You can be on the cross of salvation today! You may think it's too late, or you're too far gone to be saved, but NO ONE is too far gone that can be redeemed by the blood of Jesus! http://bible.com/events/49286496 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Paradise: 5 Truths About Heaven That Will Change Your Life

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sun, 14 Jul 2024 02:30:20 +0000

What is heaven like? Are there pearly gates? What do we do in heaven? We've all asked these questions before and have had our own ideas about what heaven is like, but what is it REALLY like? Last night, Jonathan Clark kicked off our new series, "Paradise," to jump head-first into the book of Revelation to see what it has to say about what heaven is like. Here's 5 truths about heaven that will change your life: 1. Heaven is physically new (Rev 21:1) Heaven is a physical place, not clouds in the sky. 2. Heaven is prepared (Rev 21:2) God knows all of us better than we know ourselves, and the Lord has prepared heaven, especially for YOU. 3. Heaven is the place of God's presence (Rev 21:3) Heaven will NOT be boring. We will be in the very PRESENCE of God. 4. Heaven is a place of healing (Rev 21:4) In heaven, there's no heartache, no pain, no disease, no sin. God will be there to wipe the tears from our eyes because He loves us. 5. Heaven is our home (Rev 21:5-7) Heaven is not just God's home, it's OURS as well. We can not enter into heaven through our own works due to the corruption of sin (Ephesians 2:8-9), but luckily we don't have to. The life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ allows us to enter heaven! Believing in Christ's works and confessing that He is Lord is what gets us to heaven (Romans 10:9)! If you do not know where you will go when you die, today can be the day when you are finally sure by confessing Jesus Christ as Lord!

Grace in the Hard Places

On Tuesday, we were reminded that when faced with legitimate needs, our response should be rooted in honest prayer and unwavering trust in God’s provision. 1 Corinthians 10:4 teaches us that even in our moments of desperation, God’s grace abounds. Remember, God’s love and provision are steadfast in every circumstance. 🌟🙏 https://www.bible.com/events/49280018 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

WaterProof Freedom

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 14 Jun 2024 16:57:00 +0000

A life spent pursuing Christ is a life that is walking in freedom from our trauma, our past, and our sin. Last night, Pastor Jon continued our Waterproof series, telling the story of how God made a way for freedom for Moses and the Israelites by splitting the Red Sea later leading into the Promise Land, and escaping the pursuing Egyptians. What can we learn from this story? Maybe, for example, you’re currently living a life of singleness. The FACT that you’re single may lead you to FANTASIZE about the marriage you desire and cause you to FORGET the promises of contentment from God, leading to FEAR about never being happy or satisfied without a spouse, finally leading to the BONDAGE of sin. Facts - Fantasy - Forget - Fear - Bondage God paves the way towards true freedom through the life, death, and sacrifice of Jesus Christ and a relationship with Him. We only have to realize that God is worthy of our trust. God will lead us out of captivity and into freedom! 🕊️ “So the Lord saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore. Thus Israel saw the great work which the Lord had done in Egypt; so the people feared the Lord, and believed the Lord and His servant Moses.” ‭Exodus 14:30-31 https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49273051 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Waterproof Your Future

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 6 Jun 2024 15:27:47 +0000

This Tuesday we started a new series titled: Waterproof. This week talked about trusting God with your future. Do you trust God's plan for your life? Are you doing what you can do, and then ultimately trusting God for what only He can do? We learned that there is a very real enemy who would love to undo God's plan for your life, that trusting God's plan isn't passive, but active, and that our future with God is SO much better than a future without Him. His PLANS and his PURPOSES are Waterproof! https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49269643 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Paradigm: Make Christ known

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 23 May 2024 17:37:18 +0000

How do we make Christ known to others? 1. Become a new creation. 2. Understand the ministry of reconciliation. 3. Representing Jesus. Last night we studied 2 Corinthians 5:17-21. To make Christ known, we must first have to be made a new creation. If you are in Christ, you have been made new, and you have a ministry that He has called you to. If you know Christ, do you know how to help others reconcile their relationship with God? The only two things that will last forever are the Word of God and the souls of men. As Christians, we are Christ’s ambassadors, representing Him and His kingdom. God has chosen and called us to deliver His message, the Gospel. This week, we challenge you to share your faith with others and make Him known. 🕊️ https://www.bible.com/events/49262834 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Parad1Gm: Do You Know Christ?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 17 May 2024 14:47:20 +0000

Last night we kicked off our new, self-titled series: Parad1Gm. We want to be a ministry marked by knowing Christ and making Him known to others. Last night we looked at John 17:1-5 and learned how knowing Christ is connected with eternity. “Eternal” carries the idea of quality as well as quantity, and eternal life can start today. Only knowing God brings deep soul satisfaction, and will allow you to be immersed in eternal life. Church attendance, baptism, being a good person, and being religious are good things, but they won’t give you eternal life as only knowing Jesus can. Do you know Christ?

Numbers: Submission

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 8 May 2024 15:37:30 +0000

Wrapping up our series in Numbers Pastor Jon led us through what it means to embrace living in submission to God. 👏 In 1 Peter we learned that our identity in Christ surpasses any circumstance. Submission is the choice to be emptied of authority and filled with God's purpose for your life, regardless of the circumstance. Society will tell you to live your own truth and build your own life but as Jon taught, the greatest good of life comes only from laying it all down and embracing your purpose before God. 💙 This week we encourage you to follow Jesus' example of humble submission both to God and the human authority in your life. Make it a point to give thanks to those who lead you! We love you Paradigm, see you next week! 🤩🫶🏼 https://www.bible.com/events/49255896 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Numbers: Rebellion

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 3 May 2024 14:20:54 +0000

This week we continue in the Numbers series! 👏 Pastor Chad’s sermon on Rebellion was a call to reflection. Rebellion is in us all, it has many sources, and it will always lead to ruin. Are you unknowingly rebelling against God? Common sources of rebellion stem from jealousy, ungratefulness, stubbornness, misremembering, and being untrusting. Are any of these causing you to turn from God’s wisdom? We encourage you to find and listen to the good God-given authority in your lives to help guide you. Let’s align our hearts with His Word! 💙🕊️ https://www.bible.com/events/49252403 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Numbers: Faith

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 25 Apr 2024 20:46:34 +0000

Last night we dug into what faith really means, found in Hebrews 11. We learned that faith is obediently following God’s Word, regardless of our feelings, knowing that He rewards those who diligently seek Him. Why is faith essential? It pleases God, brings salvation, and overcomes the world. To grow our faith, we’re encouraged to dive into God’s Word, share our stories boldly, and walk closely with Him every day. We all have some kind of faith. What are you putting your faith in? 🕊️ ”But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.“ ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11‬:‭6‬ ‭ https://www.bible.com/events/49248887 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Numbers: Doubt

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 18 Apr 2024 16:54:26 +0000

Tuesday night we continued our Numbers series by looking at doubt. Here are a few takeaways: 1. Doubt undermines God’s promises, and is the lack of confidence or assurance that He will keep them. 2. What is inside you will eventually come out. Let confidence, trust, and faith spill out of you instead of doubt. 3. Doubt sees obstacles. What obstacle seems so gigantic to where you’re having a hard time believing God can move in that situation? 4. Doubt is contagious. Why? It’s easy, safe, and popular. 5. Doubt leads to despair, and despair impairs your ability to make rational decisions. Desperate plans come from despairing hearts. Where are you doubting? Doubt is what separates us from our Heavenly Father. This week remember that He is in control, He loves you, and He is worthy of our trust. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49245368 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Numbers: How to Speak Truth in Love

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 11 Apr 2024 16:05:58 +0000

“Truth without love isn’t true, and love isn’t love without truth.” 🌿 Last night’s message taught us that Biblical truth and biblical love are inseparable. Truth without love destroys, and love without truth deceives. So how do we bring the two together? In the major things, take action. Have a critical conversation including an observation, discussion, your concern, and your love for the other person. In the minor things, you must have acceptance. And in all things, have a love for others like Jesus. ”And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.“ I Corinthians‬ ‭13‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49241892 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Numbers: Critical Attitude

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 4 Apr 2024 20:35:17 +0000

A critical attitude will leave you in a wilderness spiritually. Attitude — pattern of thinking developed over a period of time. Criticism is when you focus on the perceived flaw of another person without any intention to help them. Check out the layers of criticism: it’s petty, self-exalting, and sinful. Criticism is often rooted in unforgiveness, bitterness, personal failure, envy, jealousy or some resentment going on in our heart. Reflect on Miriam and Aaron’s story in Numbers 12:1-12, where criticism led to dire consequences. God takes the criticism of others personally, and He judges it accordingly. Every sin is guaranteed to come prepackaged with some consequences. Choose encouragement and humility over criticism, for when you sow something, you will reap something. Seek cleansing and forgiveness from a critical spirit to draw closer to God’s presence. We will never reach a sinless life before heaven, but God is able to cleanse us of all sin. Confess it, renounce it, and you will find mercy. 🙏 https://events.bible.com/en/event/edi...

Numbers: Contentment

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 21 Mar 2024 17:48:05 +0000

Last night in our Numbers series we looked at contentment. 1 Timothy 6:6 teaches us that godliness + contentment = great gain. Godliness, or God likeness, means to be like Jesus. Paul is teaching that we cannot live in the promised land spiritually, while living like a pagan practically. We often want the blessings of God without the obedience to God, which doesn’t work. You cannot experience the fullness of God if you are not fully submitted to God. Contentment can be defined as satisfaction with God’s sufficient provision. Contentment is often not something that comes naturally to us, but a perspective and an attitude that we must learn; contentment is a choice. The secret to gaining contentment is to be dependent on Christ’s strength, and not on our own. These two together equal great gain, but verses 9-10 and 17 show us that loving money equals great loss. So how do we choose an attitude of contentment in a sea of covetousness? Seek it. Say it. Settle it. And show it. See what the Bible says is valuable to have. Evaluate what you have, and know when to say, “that is enough.” Settle it by choosing contentment and glorifying God with what you have. The content person is a generous person. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49230580 https://www.bible.com/events/49227033 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Numbers: Cancel Coveting

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 13 Mar 2024 19:28:49 +0000

Continuing our series in Numbers, Pastor John calls on us to reflect on our habitual covetousness, which can be described as wanting the wrong thing or wanting the right thing but for the wrong amount, at the wrong time, and for the wrong reasons. Our society conditions us to want more, and more, and more. All of the tangible goods we collect might be keeping us comfortable but they aren't necessarily blessings from God. Numbers 11:7-35 teaches that it is easy to remember the false goodness of what you once had before Christ, but those desires bring an illusion of strength, making us uncomfortable in our weakness, and drying up the strength of our souls. Like the quail, the things of our own desires will be far and hard to get, whereas like the manna, the things from God will be so clearly in front of you and serve as a reminder that He is with you. Giving into an attitude of covetousness will: 1. Compromise your calling 2. Corrupt your perspective 3. Consume you This week, take some time to reflect on the thing in your life that if left to your own devices, you would go out of your way just to get it. Your Paradigm family prays that those desires will be removed from your heart as the Lord pulls you closer to Him. 💙🫶🏼🕊️ https://www.bible.com/events/49227033 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Numbers: An Attitude of Gratitude

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 6 Mar 2024 18:13:35 +0000

Some days, weeks, months, or even years are going to be harder than the rest. Life can get real hard real quick and you can easily find yourself in the mental captivity of a complaining attitude. As Christians, we can quickly find ourselves fading from the presence of the Lord in these challenging seasons, but the key to continuing to serve the Lord with gladness is to come before Him with THANKSGIVING! If you're going through a challenging season or simply want to work on practicing an attitude of gratitude every day, Psalm 100:5 gives us three reasons we can always be thankful and grateful: 1. The Lord is GOOD! When you find yourself focusing on what you don't have, start by thanking God for what you do have. 2. His mercy is EVERLASTING! Remember, whatever is wrong won't last forever. Focus on the eternal! 3. His truth endures FOREVER! Your feelings are fickle, focus on His truth. If you never forget the goodness of His truth, you will never stop being thankful. "For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations." - Psalm 100:5 https://www.bible.com/events/49223606 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Numbers: Stop Complaining

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 28 Feb 2024 21:04:08 +0000

Life is 10% what happens and 90% how you respond. Last night, we started a brand new series in Numbers! Starting in chapter 11, we dove head first into the attitude of complaining. Anything that separates us from God is a sin, and complaining your way through life is an easy way to find yourself on the path to destruction. Complaining is harmful to your relationship with God, but also to those who surround you. Looking at it from the Father’s perspective, what do we really even have to complain about? You have a Father who desires to provide for you and who has freely offered the gift of eternal life. As Christians, everything we do should glorify God and that includes our attitude toward the day. https://www.bible.com/events/49219982 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Paradigm: How Do Christians Respond to Tragedy?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 21 Feb 2024 17:59:58 +0000

In a broken world we are bound to experience or be affected by tragedy. As Christians, how do we respond? We can't "decide our theology on the 10th floor of Children's mercy" or decide our theology when we are in the middle of tragedy. We have to know the character of God and inform our emotions when tragedy strikes. As Christians, we have to: 1) Cling to the person of Christ 2) Learn to share our tears with others 3) Look to the resurrection for hope https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49216470 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

True Wisdom

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Tue, 20 Feb 2024 16:48:27 +0000

We're wrapping up our 24 series by looking at what true wisdom is. James 3:13-18 shows us the difference between worldly wisdom and godly wisdom. Worldly wisdom is of the earth; bitter, self-seeking, full of envy and lies, and only results in confusion and evil. Godly wisdom is from above; pure, peaceable, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality or hypocrisy. The outcome is fruit of righteousness. To follow Jesus, we’re going to need godly wisdom. If we have gained wisdom from Him, let’s show it. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49212928 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

The Corinthian grid can help you filter through the thousands of decisions you make a day by applying Biblical principles. When making a decision, ask yourself these five questions: 1: Does it bring me under its power? 1 Cor 6:12 2: Does this belong in God's temple? 1 Cor 8:18-20 3: Will this confuse or tempt other people? 2 Cor 8:9, 12-13 4: Does it glorify God? 1 Cor 10:31 5: Will I be proud of this decision at the judgement seat of Christ? 1 Cor 5:9-10 https://events.bible.com/en/event/edi...

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 1 Feb 2024 15:01:12 +0000

What is wisdom? Why do we need it? And where do we find it? Wisdom is the ability to discern or judge what is true, right, or lasting; having insight. Wisdom is more than information or education, wisdom is seen in the application. Wisdom is understanding how to do something, and choosing to walk it out. It delivers us from folly, redirects our path, and determines our success. How do we get it? Fearing God, asking God, and reading His Word. Wisdom is the key to a meaningful life. https://my.bible.com/events/49202237 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Reforesting: The Tree That Changed Everything

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 29 Nov 2023 17:05:00 +0000

Last night we continued our Reforesting series by remembering which tree changed everything: The cross. Reading Romans 3, we can find three things we can confess: 1. I am a sinner. 2. Jesus is the Savior. 3. Salvation is for me, but not about me. Are you right with God? Has Jesus changed your life? We have all fallen under sin, and the only way we can have right standing with God is through Jesus. The main reason Jesus died on the cross was to bring glory to God, and to demonstrate His righteousness. Jesus was the payment that satisfied the justice of God, and the tree that changed everything was the cross that Jesus bore for us. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edi...

Reforesting: Our Greatest Problem

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 24 Nov 2023 16:20:00 +0000

In the first few chapters of Genesis, we are introduced to the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and we find our greatest problem: sin. It’s easy to see the sin in the world, but do you see the sin in yourself? No matter how good life is, we are always bent towards rebellion. So many lies can uproot our faith– the lies that we’re removed from God, restricted in life, we can rationalize things, or that we rule our own lives. When we believe these lies, we are simply questioning the goodness and the character of God. After Adam and Eve had sinned, God already had the radical, redemptive plan to reforest what was broken, through his Son, Jesus. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49172787 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

2 Timothy: A Sermon About Preaching

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 15 Nov 2023 18:39:00 +0000

"Give me one hundred preachers who fear nothing but sin and desire nothing but God, and I care not whether they be clergymen or laymen, they alone will shake the gates of Hell and set up the kingdom of Heaven up Earth." -John Wesley Maybe you are someone that is called to be a preacher, or maybe you are someone who is sitting under preaching weekly. Have you ever thought about the seriousness of preaching? If you are called to preach, you should be committed to unapologetically preaching CHRIST, and if you are listening to preaching, you should unapologetically reject preaching not centered on CHRIST. The Bible teaches that everyone who is called to preach will have stricter judgement. Those called to preaching should take it seriously, and those who are listening should take it seriously who they are listening to. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edi...

2 Timothy: Why do we need the Bible?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 8 Nov 2023 19:22:00 +0000

Last night we looked at why we need the Bible. 1: The Bible is inspired by God. It is a book of prophecy, history, resiliency, and has changed people’s trajectory. 2: The Bible is Profitable. It teaches us, reproves us, corrects us, and trains us. 3: The Bible is effective. The Word completes us and equips us. God does not call the equipped, He equips the called. “In short, I will preach it, teach it, write it, but I will constrain no one by force, for faith must come freely without compulsion. Take myself as an example. I opposed indulgences and all the papists, but never with force. I simply taught, preached and wrote God’s Word; otherwise I did nothing. And while I slept, the Word … did everything.” — Martin Luther https://events.bible.com/en-US/event/...

2 Timothy: Preparing for Perilous Times

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 1 Nov 2023 17:03:00 +0000

Who do you follow, and who do you avoid in perilous times? Do you listen to the warnings of the Bible? Paul warns in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 who to avoid: those who are lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, unforgiving, slanderers, brutal; we must ask ourselves what on this list are we guilty of? Do we love pleasure more than we love God? “When a person can't find a deep sense of meaning, they distract themselves with pleasure.” — Viktor Frankl But who are we to follow? Paul’s life was worthy to be followed, and he acted as a mentor to Timothy (2 Timothy 3:6-11). Are you following those who are patient, loving, persevering, have faith and a purpose? If you’d like a mentor in your life, here are three next steps: 1. Pray for a mentor, and ask God for help. 2.

2 Timothy: Defeating Distraction

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Tue, 24 Oct 2023 16:39:00 +0000

In a debating and argumentative culture, how can we defeat distraction from the truth? 1: Be mastered by the Word of God. We are called to study the Word and take care of our soul by doing so. Hold tight to biblical right hand beliefs (Ephesians 4:4-6). Until the Word is changing you, you will look for truth in other things. 2: Pursue consecration in a culture craving compromise. “And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth,” ‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭2‬:‭24‬-‭25‬. 3: Test your heart for tenderness and truth. Grow your competence of the Word, and lovingly lead people to know the truth. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49152109 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

2 Timothy: The Plan of Christianity

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Tue, 17 Oct 2023 20:13:20 +0000

What’s the plan for Christianity? Live the strategy. The strategy of Christianity can be summed up into one word: Discipleship. Last night we looked at at the why, what, who, and how of discipleship. Discipleship is radical self-donation for the purpose of godliness and multiplication- to live out The Great Commission. Teach, show, and coach others through The Gospel. Remember God and His Word, for the Word of God cannot be bound. Finally, celebrate God’s faithfulness. He is always faithful, even when we aren’t. God is going to make disciples- will you be a part of it? https://events.bible.com/en/event/edi...

2 Timothy: A Better Way

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 28 Sep 2023 18:44:25 +0000

Who is your Paul? Who is your Timothy? Is there someone investing in your life spiritually, or someone you’re pouring into spiritually? Who is the person believing in you when you don’t believe in yourself? If you’re not in a discipleship relationship, there’s a better way. Come learn about who Paul was, and how he was radically changed by Jesus. He spent time being discipled and learning the Word of God. Timothy needed someone to see what he couldn’t see in himself, and to show him the way. Paul invested into Timothy the Word of God and the Ways of God, so that he would eventually go out to do the work of God. Discipleship is radical self-donation for the purpose of godliness and multiplication. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edit/49144654 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Sermon on the Mount: Wise and Foolish Builders

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 21 Sep 2023 16:14:51 +0000

"The storms in this life are but a drizzle compared to the storm of judgement that is to come when we meet God. Only the wise builder, who build their house on the rock of Jesus Christ, will endure." Are you a wise or a foolish builder? Are you building the foundation of your life on the Rock? And where will you be when storms come? The foolish builder hears the words of Jesus, but does not put them into practice. For the foolish, the storms in this life are nothing compared to the ones in the next. But if you are wise and build your life on Jesus, the storms of this life will be the only ones we will have to go through. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edi...

Are you going through the gate leading to destruction, or the gate leading to life? In Matthew 7:13-23, Jesus is concluding the content of His message, but sharing His burden. We might walk through life thinking we have freedom, but we don’t have the freedom that we think we have until we are resting in Jesus.

Sermon on the Mount: How to Judge Someone

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 13 Sep 2023 21:10:51 +0000

How do you judge someone? Make sure you have the right motive, that you start with yourself first, and that you are careful doing it. In Matthew 7, Jesus is not condemning the correction of people, He’s condemning the condemning of people. Before judging your brother, humble yourself to see your own sin before you see theirs. Remove the plank in your own eye before trying to remove the speck in theirs. Be careful by sharing truth and tears with others, being patient with God’s pace in their life, and making it personal in order to judge in a Christ-like way.We may often be imperfect in this, but Jesus was the perfect judge, who was condemned so that we didn’t have to be. https://events.bible.com/en/event/edi...

Sermon on the Mount: Don't Worry

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 13 Sep 2023 21:08:03 +0000

“Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?” ‭‭ Last night we looked at what Matthew 6:25-33 says about worry, and how it doesn’t work, it reveals our faith, and it distracts you from your purpose. We were not made to carry the anxiety that we’re carrying in this life, but don’t give yourself over to worry. Worry pretends to make a difference, and often only makes things worse. Worry is choosing to believe that your problems are bigger than God is. Choose to seek God first, turn from worry and turn to the Kingdom and His righteousness. Running to anything but God for your worry will result in disappointment. What are you worried about? Don’t put your faith in your circumstances, but instead put your faith in the One who controls the outcome of your circumstances. https://www.bible.com/events/49130688 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Sermon on the Mount: The Power of Prayer and Fasting

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 16 Aug 2023 22:56:09 +0000

🗣️ You can’t live a powerful life if you live a prayer-less life. 🗣️ Pastor Phil teaches on the power of prayer and fasting mentioned in Matthew 6 and 7. Prayer, firstly, is personal. Prayer is simply a conversation with God, not to impress others in any way. If it doesn’t come from the heart, it isn’t personal. Prayer is also relational; to get our will to align with God’s, and not the other way around. Prayer is continual. God doesn’t answer prayers always immediately, but he answers prayers always. What is fasting? It adds power to prayer. Fasting is expected (Matt. 6:16), it’s private (Matt. 6:16-17), and it’s rewarded (Matt. 6:18). https://www.bible.com/events/49123509 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Decoding Dating: How Do You Know When You are Dating?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Mon, 14 Aug 2023 16:44:21 +0000

How do you know you’re dating? When and how do you put a label on it? How do you define the relationship, and what’s the next step once you have? First, step back and see where the relationship is heading. Has your attraction to their character grown? And are you truly ready for the next phase? Look for wisdom from God’s Word, His Spirit, and from His People. Once you are sure, have the conversation to define the relationship with clarity. When in doubt, talk it out in the right timing and atmosphere. After establishing the relationship, what next? The plan for dating is to pursue marriage, and the purpose is for observation and edification. Remember, a dating relationship is not meant to stay stuck on the stump of confusion.

Decoding Dating: How Do I Get a Date?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 3 Aug 2023 17:48:57 +0000

What does the Bible teach us about how we should date? There is a lot of pressure around dating in our culture right now, so how can we make sure our dating relationships are spiritually healthy? First we must determine if we’re ready to date. The vision for dating is the destination of marriage (Proverbs 29:18). Are you taking care of your baggage, and are you who you claim to be? Before dating, be friends. Most marriages begin with friendship (Song of Solomon 5:16). And how do you get a date? Remember clarity is king (1 Corinthians 14:33). http://bible.com/events/49116973 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

We dive into what to look for in someone to date, ask who you're becoming, and talk about why all of this matters.

Summer on the Mount: Lust

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 29 Jun 2023 21:19:05 +0000

The enemy often baits us to fall into lust, and he catches a lot of people. Matthew 5:27-30 teaches us that we can fall into lust with our heart, eyes, and hands. Jesus uses this common struggle to point us to the reality that we need a new heart, and that if there’s lust in our heart, our heart isn’t right with God. Lust leads to adultery and is ultimately destructive. Take the steps to get free from lust; your family, marriage, and relationship with God are at stake. Don’t take the bait. https://www.bible.com/events/49100695 Paradigm is a weekly gathering of Kansas City college and 20s-30s young adults who desire to see Jesus made known throughout the city!

Sermon on the Mount: Beautitudes

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 9 Jun 2023 03:55:02 +0000

Matthew 5 records the beginning one of Jesus’ most memorable messages – the sermon on the mount. The beatitudes in this chapter point us to what a truly supreme blessedness in life looks like. Blessed are the poor in spirit and those who mourn, for they will still see heaven and the Lord’s comfort through grief. Blessed are the meek and those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for He will entrust you with more when you surrender to Him. Blessed are the merciful, for you will also receive mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, and are peacemakers, for they will be close to God. And blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake. The reason why the sermon on the mount is the king of all speeches, is because it’s the speck of the King of all kings.

Maturity: How to Enjoy God

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 9 Jun 2023 03:02:37 +0000

God’s greatest invitation for us is to enjoy His presence, and he takes pleasure in us when we find our supreme pleasure in Him. Psalm 131 shows us three ways that David enjoyed God: with a humble heart, with a calm soul, and with hopeful community. David humbles his heart and renounces pride, knowing that you cannot glorify God and walk in pride at the same time. He knew to simply enjoy God, without having to understand everything about Him. Finally, David gives opportunity to place hope in the Lord, knowing that running to God for hope is better than running to any other source for it.

Maturity: Mature Love

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 18 May 2023 02:53:32 +0000

Love is important, love is a verb, and love is mature. Are you a loving person? Are the descriptions of love mentioned in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 evident and increasing in your life? Mature love is marked by patience, kindness, and forgiveness. Some good ways to practice these are moving at the pace of the ones you love, lending your strength to others, and serving someone other than yourself. Jesus is the epitome of all that love is, and if we want to be Christ-like and mature in our love, we must first know the love of Christ.

Pain isn’t easy to go through in this life, but pain does help us develop endurance, character, and produces hope. Romans 5:2-5 tells us this. Pain always produces something, and Paul knew that suffering would be what made him most Christ-like. We can take comfort in that we have a Savior who experienced suffering just as we do, that God has a purpose for the pain we go through, and that one day the hope that we cling to will be made clear when we see God face to face.

Maturity: Even When It Hurts

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 28 Apr 2023 02:54:43 +0000

Do you have FOMO, or FOBO - "fear of better options"? We tend to be either overcommitters, or flaky when it comes to commitments, and God has a lot to say about that. In Psalm 15, we see that a mature follower of God keeps their commitments, even when it hurts. Commitments matter to God, they matter to others, and they matter forever, so how are you keeping your commitments?

Maturity: Spiritual Puberty

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Mon, 24 Apr 2023 19:01:42 +0000

Aren't we all so glad we aren't in one of the most awkward seasons of our lives - puberty? In a spiritual matter, God doesn't want us to stay in an awkward stage in our spiritual walk, but He desires us as born again believers to grow in maturity. Ephesians 4 explains the mark of spiritual maturity as being involved, learning, not being deceived, speaking the truth in love, and growing in Christlikeness.

Hosea: Defined by Love

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Mon, 24 Apr 2023 18:38:47 +0000

What or who do you let define you? The reality is that only your Creator gets to define you, and He does it with unconditional love. Hosea chapter 3 shows us the defining qualities of God's love through the story of Hosea faithfully pursuing, rescuing, and loving his wife Gomer after her infidelity. Through this story, we see that God's love is relentless, redefining, and restorative. Do you know the restorative love of God? Do you follow God? Is He your friend? Do you fear Him?

Hosea: The Dichotomy of God's Love

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 6 Apr 2023 02:49:31 +0000

The goal of the discipline of God is not to drive you away, but to bring you in and remind you of His great love for you. Hosea 2:1-20, we see that God's love is tough, but is also tender towards us. God truly wants the best for us, and the best for us is in a right relationship with Him, so He may limit us and remove things in our life we idolize over Him, but at the same time He is also relentless, gentle, and restorative in how He pursues us.

Hosea: What Faithfulness Looks Like

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 23 Mar 2023 03:43:34 +0000

What does God’s faithfulness towards us look like? Hosea 1:1-11 directly shows us. God represented Himself through Hosea, and we are Gomer. Their marriage is the message. Even in our mess, He still chooses us to have a relationship with. That even though we might use the gifts He’s given us for wrong, He still loves us and redeems us.

Here & There: Ends of the Earth

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Tue, 21 Mar 2023 22:51:19 +0000

Living on mission is a risk: Relationships, Investments, Schedule, and for the Kingdom. Living on mission means helping build the Kingdom, and can be the most fulfilling kind of adventure. 41% of people don’t have any kind of access to the Gospel. God is calling you somewhere, do you know where? Some are called here, some there, and some to the ends of the earth.

Here & There: Witnesses Here

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 4 Mar 2023 14:39:42 +0000

Has your life been changed by Jesus? Mark 5:1-20 shows how the enemy wants to enslave us, and have us looking for life in places where only death exists. Our pride can often cause us to believe that our sin is too much to be saved from, but the Bible extensively shows that nothing stands a chance against God Almighty. How do we know we’ve been changed by Jesus? We are free, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed, sober minded, and obedient.

Here & There: Witness to the World

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 24 Feb 2023 14:56:42 +0000

The world is lost, broken, and in desperate need of saving; you don’t have to look far to see that. Right before Jesus left earth in Acts 1:8, He commissioned His followers around Him with a purpose: to be witnesses. We’re called to be witnesses in word and action to a dying world, in our work place, schools, places that we frequent. To tell someone about Jesus is the most loving thing you can do for your neighbor, so pray, seek wisdom, and go!

Be Real: Real Community

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 18 Feb 2023 02:38:21 +0000

Do you have people in your life that fully know you and fully love you and accept you? God said it’s not good for people to be alone, and He desires us to run in community with other like-minded individuals so we can experience more of Him and His love. In this message, we hear why we need community, what community looks like, and how to get into biblical community. Don’t do life alone!

Be Real: Real Relationship

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 8 Feb 2023 20:25:20 +0000

Do you have a real relationship with God? In Psalm 63, the author, David, paints a picture of the beauty of a relationship with our Savior and we learn how we can know Him and grow closer to Him — are you in awe of a holy God? Are you possessive of God, is He your God, not just a god? And are you pursuing God earnestly through prayer and studying the Bible?

Be Real: You Can Win

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 2 Feb 2023 01:16:29 +0000

That sin you can't shake, the lie you keep falling back into. It's hard to live with, so we tend to cover up like we're okay, like we've got it all together - the enemy wants us to believe the lie. But God wants to free us from the bondage, He wants to give us life abundant through Him. In this message, Pastor Phil shared his story of how God healed him from a life of covering up the hurt and pain of sin. We must believe God unconditionally, submit to Christ completely, and walk in truth and transparency in biblical community.

Be Real: Let's Be Real

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sun, 29 Jan 2023 00:56:18 +0000

We crave the real thing — in news, in relationships, in friendships, and in all of life. So what keeps us from being real? Diving into Luke 18, we learned how a posture of honesty, humility, brokenness, need, and repentance is a mark of authenticity, and how once we are real before a real God, we can find mercy.

1 Thessalonians: What Type of Person God Likes

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 10 Dec 2022 19:29:27 +0000

What kind of person would God delight in? In 1 Thessalonians 5, Paul gives us instructions in pursuing what God loves: rejoicing, prayer, and thanksgiving as well as attitudes that should not mark us as followers of Christ: apathy, complaining, distraction, defiance, and giving in to things that are evil. What characteristics mark your life?

1 Thessalonians: Leaders, Followers, and the Unruly

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 2 Dec 2022 17:06:19 +0000

Are you a leader or a follower in your spiritual walk? In 1 Thessalonians 5:12-15, God has given us guidelines to walk in in order to be a godly leader and a godly follower. These roles carry challenges and rewards, and involve laboring hard, admonishment, encouragement, peaceful living, and patience.

1 Thessalonians: How To Be Ready for the Day of the Lord

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sun, 20 Nov 2022 19:28:03 +0000

What will be the best Day ever for some will be the worst Day ever for others. In 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11, Paul informs us that the sudden Day of the Lord, the return of Jesus, will be like a destructive thief to those who are not following Him. In the same passage, Paul encourages believers to live in a way that is ready and expectant of Jesus' return. A believer is to live in new identity, walk in new activity, and reflect their new destiny, seizing every opportunity to share with unbelievers of the hope and salvation in Jesus.

1 Thessalonians: The Coming of the Lord

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 11 Nov 2022 04:51:38 +0000

Jesus came to earth once to make a way for us to know Him, and He's coming back to make all things right. Pastor Phil Hopper walks us through 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 and answers some questions many have about the second coming of the Lord, like what happens to Christians when they die? What's the rapture? What's encouraging about the end times? Most importantly, are you ready for the Lord's return?

1 Thessalonians: What Do I Need To Do Today?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sun, 6 Nov 2022 13:58:18 +0000

When you share with others that you’re a follower of Jesus, are they surprised? In 1 Thessalonians 4:9-12, Paul lays out how us as followers of Jesus are to practically live in a way that reflects we’ve made Jesus Lord of our life and have been radically changed. The conduct of a follower of Jesus is loving others better, living simply, and sharing openly with others, inviting them to experience the joy and life change found in Jesus.

1 Thessalonians: Sex & the Bible

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 29 Oct 2022 15:22:27 +0000

Struggling with sexual sin is proof of your salvation, but there’s a big difference between struggling with sin and giving into sin. In 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8, we learn what God’s will is for our lives, which is to be to be sanctified, or set apart to progression in purity and surrender to God. We learned how to practically walk in God’s way regarding our sex lives, and how to listen to the warning of God.

1 Thessalonians: How to Pray Better Prayers

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sun, 23 Oct 2022 16:11:39 +0000

What if we told you that you could talk to the One who created you and that He delights in hearing from you? Paul tells us in 1 Thessalonians 3 how to grow in prayer, the language of someone who is dependent on God. In this passage, we learn what prayer is and isn’t, who to pray to, and what to pray.

1 Thessalonians: How To Be a Good Leader

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 13 Oct 2022 22:34:56 +0000

Leadership. We hear this buzzword a lot; we want to have influence, and we want to leave an impact. In 1 Thessalonians 3, Paul lays out what it looks like to be a strong godly leader. Are you willing to sacrifice for your people you lead? Do you care and pray for those you lead?

1 Thessalonians: Serving Others as You Serve God

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Tue, 11 Oct 2022 23:50:58 +0000

What's the difference between serving others out of an overflow of love for God vs. just going through the motions? Continuing in 1 Thessalonians 2, guest speaker, Darrell Robinson, shared his story of how God can use anyone to do the work of His ministry. As believers walking out the call to serve others, we must examine our motives, be willing to impart our lives and suffer for others, and celebrate how God moves.

1 Thessalonians: Is Your Faith Real?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 28 Sep 2022 22:13:22 +0000

We all crave authenticity. In what we buy, in our relationships, in our jobs, and in what we believe, we want the real thing. But how can we examine our faith to know that it’s real, because “faking it till we make it” isn’t possible in a relationship with Jesus? In 1 Thessalonians 1, we find what marked the true believers of the Thessalonians church. And in turn, we asked ourselves 10 questions — from “Do you labor to love others?” to “Are you waiting for Jesus’ return?” — to help us answer the bigger question: “Is your faith real?”

Origins: Where Did Justice Come From?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sun, 11 Sep 2022 16:52:48 +0000

Justice. We all want it — things put “as they should be” when there’s been a wrong. But who decides what’s right? And where do we get this universal sense of justice? We find its origins in the book of Genesis, in the story of the global flood, when God recognized great evil on the earth and responded with a just judgment. But He also extended mercy — if people would choose it. And thousands of years later, we find the same choice in front of us: Will we experience judgment or choose to receive His mercy?

Origins: Where Did Evil Come From?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 2 Sep 2022 11:28:35 +0000

Why is the world so broken? It's because evil invaded all the good that God created ... through one simple act. In Genesis, we learn how two people doubted God's goodness, questioned His Word, and chose to rewrite the one rule God laid out. The result? Shame. Religion. Running. Hiding. Blaming. And all the rest of the mess we mourn in our world. But in the midst of the darkness, God promised hope: One would come to reverse the evil and restore our brokenness.

Origins: What Is A Person?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 25 Aug 2022 11:26:35 +0000

In Genesis, we learn that the origin of gender and sexuality is from a perfect, creative, good, and loving God: He created human beings, male and female. And we learn that we were created with a glorious purpose: to be His image bearers, reflecting Him in both our physicality and our psychology. So as our culture communicates that gender identity is optional, we can respond with truth — and with love, curiosity, Gospel clarity, and faith in God.

Every civilization has a story of beginnings, because we need to know where we’ve come from if we’re going to live with hope and purpose. God Himself found it important to communicate to us the history of the world’s beginning; the very first verses of the Bible begin with that history, where we find the origins of the universe.

But marriage God's way is absolutely amazing. So how can we get there?

Deconstruction: How Does Jesus Respond to Someone Who is Deconstructing?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 7 Jul 2022 03:48:20 +0000

Disappointments can lead to deconstructing belief in God. And deconstruction can be healthy — taking apart our practices and beliefs to determine their truthfulness, usefulness, and impact. But where do we bring our doubts, and then what happens next? In Matthew 11, we find John the Baptist wrestling with his own disappointments and doubt, and he brought them straight to the source. Jesus responded with kindness, evidence, and a promise of blessing to those in a place of doubt who choose to trust.

Deconstruction: Is the Bible Really True?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 1 Jul 2022 20:16:15 +0000

Are you a fan of fables? You know, nice stories that help us understand basic moral lessons? Some view the Bible that way, but a fable most certainly isn’t worth living for — or dying for. And if we’re going to count the Bible as our foundation for faith, then we must know it’s reliable history based on eyewitness accounts. We’ve got to know if it’s really God’s Word, recording His plan and His perspective on our world. So is it? Peter, one of Jesus’ disciples, was one of the first to deconstruct his faith, and we learn from him what he came back to: The Bible is true, and that changes everything.

Deconstruction: If God Is So Good Why Is The World So Bad?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 23 Jun 2022 04:06:01 +0000

If we believe in the God of the Bible, then we must believe that He is good. But if He's good, how can He allow suffering? In Romans 8, we find that suffering is not a result of God’s action, but our own choice to sin. And our sin has not only cursed ourselves but also all of creation. So where does a good God come in? With a grand redemption plan that will one day result in so much good, it won’t be worth comparing to the bad.

Deconstruction: Reconstruct on the Resurrection

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 16 Jun 2022 18:52:35 +0000

Deconstruction ... all the cool kids are doing it. If you’ve got doubts, too, don’t demonize them; DO something with them. Examine what you believe. Then reconstruct what you’ve deconstructed on the truth! In 1 Corinthians 15, Paul does this: he examined the Resurrection of Christ, because he knew that if we don’t get this one thing right, then the building blocks of our beliefs won’t matter. The Resurrection is central; it’s certain; and it’s critical. And because of the Resurrection, we have a hope that lasts beyond this life.

Galatians: The Gospel Changes Everything

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 9 Jun 2022 01:57:40 +0000

If your life has been intersected by the Gospel, then you can never be the same. This is Paul's message as he concludes his letter to the people of Galatia, warning them against fleshly living and calling them to Spirit-led relationships, activity, and confidence — only possible by salvation through Jesus Christ. Through the Gospel, we rely not on what we can do or must do, but on what Christ has done and is doing. Will you respond to the Gospel?

Galatians: How to Grow Your Faith

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 3 Jun 2022 20:44:00 +0000

How do you know if someone is really a Christian? And are you? There’s a way to find out. In Galatians, Paul says that the character of a person will showcase whether they truly know Christ or not. And he challenges us to evaluate our own lives to see if we are connected with Christ — and if we are, then remove the weeds, watch for the fruit, and wait to see God do the work of growing your faith.

Galatians: Resolved for Grace

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Mon, 30 May 2022 00:23:57 +0000

We’re all good at grace. Needing it, that is! But when it comes to receiving God’s grace, we’re a mess and we can’t leave it alone. We end up either adding to it with a bunch of rules (called legalism) or taking from it because we’re disregarding all the rules (called licentiousness). And a little bit of either of those will ruin the entire batch of grace … like a toenail in your salsa. Instead, in the book of Galatians, Paul calls us to stop misusing and stop abusing God’s grace and simply enjoy it. Because Christ died for much more than a code Christianity — He came to give us abundant life.

Galatians: Slave to Performance

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 20 May 2022 04:07:57 +0000

Work hard and everything will work out fine. That’s the American dream. But it doesn’t work for what’s most important in life: our relationship with God. Because the main message of the Bible is that the only way to get right and stay right with God is by faith in Jesus Christ. If you’re stuck in a performance trap and you’re not enjoying Jesus, something Is off. Galatians pinpoints what — and how to escape being enslaved to performance so you can live in joy with Jesus.

Galatians: Who Are You?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Mon, 16 May 2022 15:42:11 +0000

We’re all born orphans, spiritually: conceived in crisis, born into bondage, and hopelessly lost in the orphanage called the world. But in Galatians, we find that if we are in Christ, we are chosen by the God of the universe to be His children — with all the privileges and joys and security of adoption. And with that adoption comes a responsibility: Will we be a witness to the adoption of others?

Single Topic: Where to Find Satisfaction

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Tue, 10 May 2022 17:40:30 +0000

Are you perfectly happy? If not ... what's the one thing you think could get you there? In John 4, we find Jesus intentionally pursuing a woman who is so unsatisfied with her life, it's been her full-time job to keep seeking the one more thing that could help. But one-more-thing hasn't helped. And the answer Jesus brings her is what we need, too: a new purpose in life of knowing the Messiah and sharing Him with others.

Galatians: The Purpose of the Law

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 29 Apr 2022 21:54:38 +0000

Are you a speed limit follower or breaker? Yeah, us too. Traffic laws regulate us to keep us safe, but we all know the speed limit signs don't magically make us better drivers. Eventually we all break those limits, and in slow zones it feels like the limit is there just to trip us up. Sometimes the law of God can feel like that too, as if all 600 laws in the entire Bible were written just for us to break them. In Galatians, Paul returns to the history of how the law was given to display the hope of why it was given: to diagnose our dysfunction and point to the promise of freedom. Salvation is not determined by our determination: the promise of the God is that we can be made right with Him through faith.

Galatians: How It Started & How It's Going

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 21 Apr 2022 22:49:22 +0000

Relationship pro-tip: The way you attract someone is how you'll keep them. Same goes for your relationship with God. If you think you can do enough good to earn a relationship with Him, then you'll be in constant danger of one bad mess-up ruining everything. But in Galatians, we learn that God is the initiator, the sustainer, and the completer of our salvation. The good news? You can never lose God's love because you can't earn it, either. The way we start is the same way we'll finish: by faith.

Galatians: The Cure for Hypocrisy

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 7 Apr 2022 03:08:55 +0000

Christians are a bunch of hypocrites. That's what everyone says ... and they're not wrong. Most likely you're a pro, just like the rest of us, acting out a lie every time we say something that doesn't match up with what we do. And in Galatians, Paul is calling out people who are living this lie — and then he lays out how to be healed. Because there is freedom from the burden of hypocrisy, and it's found in the Gospel.

Galatians: The Goal of the Gospel

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 1 Apr 2022 03:21:16 +0000

Are you wearing a cheap version of faith? We tend towards a faith that is trendy, comfy & casual ... or traditional, rigid & rules. But cheap faith is a knockoff. It will never accomplish the glorious goal of the Gospel that God master planned: to unite us with Christ and with each other. Paul lays out this Gospel in Galatians and reminds us that it's not about us, but it's for us, and when we experience it, our lives are changed forever.

Galatians: Getting the Gunk out of the Gospel

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 25 Mar 2022 17:40:20 +0000

Ever had allergies so bad your eyes crusted over? It's painful and gross, plus, obviously, you just can't see well. In Galatians, we find Paul writing to a group of churches to point out something also obvious: They can't see the Gospel clearly because there's gunk they've been adding to it, making it crusty and ruined. But Paul experienced the radical power of the clear Gospel; it changed him from a church persecutor to a church planter, and in this spicy first-century letter, he calls all followers of Jesus to get rid of the gunk and experience that same power.

Voices: God's Voice

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 17 Mar 2022 19:06:52 +0000

A spiritual high, followed by stress, is a recipe for depression. Ever been there? Elijah, a prophet in ancient Israel, experienced God moving in an out-of-this-world way, but then fell into isolation and doubt. He desperately needed to hear God’s voice. And like Elijah, if we want to be used by God, grow in faith, and find hope, we need to hear God's voice, know His word, and know the Shepherd.

Satan is the OG scam artist — making the same plays on us since Genesis 3 by questioning God’s authority. When we’re tempted to think happiness lies just on the other side of a “little” sin — and we take the bait for it — we end up finding ourselves trashed by a load of guilt and despair. But there’s a way out: Instead of listening to the voice of temptation and the accuser, learn to talk to yourself of the victory that’s already been won and experience the voice of celebration.

Work & Rest: Work

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 4 Feb 2022 04:47:29 +0000

Sometimes work is hard. In Luke 5, we see some guys doing hard work with less than stellar results. Ready to call it a day, they're joined by Jesus and instructed to go back to work when it seems pointless. These men find that when Jesus joins them in the struggle, everything changes. And the same principle holds true today: whether you love your work or are itching to change, ask Jesus to go to work with you. Follow Christ, and He can work through your work to change the world.

In a household, if the roles and responsibilities are not understood, disorder is inevitable. The same can be said for God’s House, the church. When the people of God understand their roles and God’s role, they can flourish in their lives. As we continue reading 1 Timothy 2, we’ll dig into the roles of men and women in the context of the church. https://my.bible.com/events/48776362

First Timothy: A Leader's Formation

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 30 Sep 2021 12:44:38 +0000

Leadership isn’t a pedigree, but a process. Leaders are not found, but formed. If the purpose of a biblical leader is to lead others to follow Jesus, what does that look like? Find out as we continue reading about a leader’s formation in I Timothy. https://my.bible.com/events/48772356

We're Just Talking: Marriage Will Fix It

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 16 Sep 2021 04:16:22 +0000

What are the silly things we think about when it comes to marriage? Do we think it will complete us and solve our problems…or do we leave that up to our Heavenly Father? This week, we learn that marriage won’t fix our issues but that only God can, in His perfect love and instruction. https://my.bible.com/events/48764634

We're Just Talking: It's Not You, It's Me

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 11 Sep 2021 18:58:15 +0000

Breaking up is hard to do. It can be difficult, and the breakup conversations even more so. But despite the difficulty, we can learn how to breakup Biblically with consideration, compassion, and courage. https://my.bible.com/events/48760524

We're Just Talking: The Unwritten Rules of Dating

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 3 Sep 2021 21:58:57 +0000

Nothing worth having comes quickly or easily. Many times, you have to wait for it, as God prepares you for it – the same is true of dating and marriage. God’s Word shows us that we need His guidance in navigating our relationships and even in our unwritten rules of dating. https://my.bible.com/events/48756857

We're Just Talking: Hunting Unicorns

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 20 Aug 2021 12:21:04 +0000

Have you ever seen a unicorn? You can keep searching, but they don’t exist. The same goes for a “perfect” man or woman. This week, we learn that we need to stop looking for a perfect potential partner — and what to look for instead. https://my.bible.com/events/48745981

Jonah: Compassion

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 12 Aug 2021 12:32:41 +0000

It can be intimidating to recognize the sufferings of others, because it reveals our own frailties and fears. How many people find it hard to comfort the dying, how many times have you turned away when you see someone in need? In this sermon, we learn that compassion is never easy, but God has called us to it.

Jonah: God's Patient Love

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 11 Aug 2021 22:39:45 +0000

Did you know that anything is possible with love and patience? This is a lesson that God was trying to teach Jonah with the Ninevites, and Jonah recognized this through his resistance to God’s command. https://my.bible.com/events/48742084

Jonah: Love Better

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 4 Aug 2021 11:58:13 +0000

Tolerance is easy, but it’s the loving part that’s hard. Jonah thought Ninevites would suffer for their actions, but God had another plan. That plan involved more than tolerance – it involved repentance, forgiveness, and love.

Jonah: Grace

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 24 Jul 2021 18:55:23 +0000

What is generous, free, unexpected, and undeserved? God’s grace and love is given to all unconditionally and without any strings attached. It took Jonah some time to find that out – especially when it came to the Ninevites. https://my.bible.com/events/48734391

Jonah: The Sign of Jonah

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 17 Jul 2021 15:45:07 +0000

You can run, but you can’t hide. God will always find you, just like He found Jonah on a ship bound for Tarshish. As we continue to explore the story of Jonah, we also discover God’s relentless pursuit of us, despite our avoidance of Him. https://my.bible.com/events/48731103

Jonah: Intervention

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 9 Jul 2021 16:30:30 +0000

Have you ever played hide and seek with anyone? Now try playing it with God -- the prophet Jonah did just that. This week we’re examining our need to follow God’s direction in our lives, and how when we don’t, there’s no place we can hide. https://my.bible.com/events/48727193

Jonah: Runaways

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 3 Jul 2021 22:31:14 +0000

Did you know the maximum human running speed is 28 mph? You’d have to run even faster if you think you can get away from God. Tonight, we’re focusing on the book of Jonah and his decision to run from what God called him to do. https://my.bible.com/events/48721114

Hot Takes: Stay Woke... Jesus invented it

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 18 Jun 2021 03:04:46 +0000

“Staying woke” might be prevalent in our culture today, but it’s not new in the pages of history. Before protests and hashtags, the early church promoted racial equality based on their understanding of the gospel. Join us as we discover, in Galatians, how a biblical definition for “woke” works in our lives through the gospel. https://my.bible.com/events/48716101

The Way: The First Heretic

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 15 May 2021 15:54:00 +0000

Have you thought of your relationship with God as a means to an end -- ritualistic, or transactional? You’re in good company. In this week’s message, we examine a person in the book of Acts who thought he could have God’s power in exchange for money. Listen to find out what we can learn from his confusion. https://my.bible.com/events/48696308

The Way: The First Martyr

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 6 May 2021 16:49:03 +0000

We would all give our lives for something worth dying for. But as we look in God’s Word, we come to learn through Stephen, the first martyr, that what we would die for is truly what is worth living for. http://bible.com/events/48692416

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Sat, 1 May 2021 03:16:49 +0000

The Way: The First Threat

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 23 Apr 2021 12:44:04 +0000

Too often, we’re hesitant to talk about Jesus to our friends and family. Is there a remedy to our timidity? In this message, we learn from Acts 4 about boldness, and how God gives us boldness so He can further His purposes. https://my.bible.com/events/48684621

The Way: Lame Man Walking

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 16 Apr 2021 20:58:05 +0000

“We have a tendency to solve spiritual problems with physical solutions.” You may not be lame or have physical ailments, but we all have spiritual issues.

As we read 2 Corinthians, we discover how we can change our lives by changing our thinking. https://www.bible.com/events/48614381 For more on defeating the Enemy check out these series from Pastor Phil: https://livingproof.co/sermon-series/defeating-the-enemy/ https://livingproof.co/sermon-series/the-weapons-of-our-warfare/

Special guest and Abundant Life Pastor, Jeff Cox, provides us with 9 counseling questions through God’s Word to ask ourselves as we assess our mental health. https://www.bible.com/events/48590912

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 11 Mar 2021 19:22:13 +0000

When talking about mental illness, too often we want to numb the symptoms that plague our lives. What if it were possible to know the source and address it? In surveying the Scriptures, we find the potential sources of mental illness in our lives. https://www.bible.com/events/48568711

Help: Power Struggle

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 5 Mar 2021 15:03:50 +0000

Mental Illness has the power to control our thoughts, feelings and actions. But it’s confusing to navigate: Prescriptions? Counseling? Spiritual warfare? The real question is, how does God view and respond to people with mental illness? Tune in as we look into the gospel of Mark and kick off a series called Help: A Series on Mental Health. https://www.bible.com/events/48548292

Decision Decade: Why are you here?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 5 Feb 2021 03:49:07 +0000

What’s my life’s purpose? What’s God’s will for my life? Why am I here? Many times, we can feel out of place as we search for the answers to these questions. As we open the Bible to the book of Philippians, we’ll learn God’s purpose for each of our lives. https://www.bible.com/events/48524623

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 27 Jan 2021 04:12:12 +0000

But Jesus gets to define His relationship, and in this message we learn Who He is and what He calls His followers to. https://my.bible.com/events/48012354 Text to Give Number: 816-282-6525 Text the dollar amount you would like to give.

Christmas for the City: LET'S GO!

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 10 Dec 2020 15:37:47 +0000

Does your version of following Jesus align with the Bible? Often, we view following Jesus as a checklist of attending church, believing in God, and waiting to go to heaven — but the Bible conflicts with that view. Listen as we scour the Scriptures to see what Jesus’ followers are called to — and then let’s go! https://my.bible.com/events/47903495

Christmas for the City

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 3 Dec 2020 03:26:32 +0000

Paradigm is headed to the city! As a ministry of Abundant Life, we’re starting a new work in the Crossroads district of Kansas City. Why? In Genesis 11, we see the potential of the first city and its citizens, but in pursuit of their own glory, they missed the mark with God. Listen and discover that, just as Jesus came into our world to redeem and reconcile our relationship with God, we are also headed to the city to reconcile people to God through the message and person of Christ. https://my.bible.com/events/47832547

Paradigm: The Power of Faith

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 17:23:45 +0000

Everyone has a faith, but what have we put our faith in? God wants to accomplish great things in your life for His purposes and glory, and faith is His conduit. In reading Hebrews 11, we see that God wants us to depend on Him through our faith, so He can remain at the center of all that we do. https://my.bible.com/events/47699155

Paradigm: The Power of the Spirit

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 18 Nov 2020 18:46:49 +0000

It can be frustrating and exhausting trying to change and follow Jesus. Ever thought that we are trying to change in our own power, instead of His? As we read Romans 8, we’ll learn about how Jesus wants to save you and transform you to be like Him. It’s through His Spirit that you can experience a new paradigm. https://my.bible.com/events/47450993

Paradigm: The Power of People

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 12 Nov 2020 14:42:21 +0000

What are friends for? Often, we can view people as a means to an end in advancing our own goals. What if we had friends who pursued a relationship with Christ with us? Challenge yourself as we approach a new paradigm for friends and what they do by God’s Word, so we can sustain the change in our lives. https://my.bible.com/events/46927888

God is in Control

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 6 Nov 2020 14:41:25 +0000

Within a charged political culture, it can be difficult to identify who’s truly in control. Political candidates, parties, and policies can let us down. Yet, God is the One who can guide our lives in high political climates, because He alone is in control. Join us as we examine Christ’s character in the Scriptures, to know and trust that He is sovereign in our lives. https://my.bible.com/events/46656243

Paradigm: The Journey

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 21 Oct 2020 18:39:19 +0000

The spiritual walk we have with Christ is just that: a walk. Jesus saves us from our sin and empowers us to accomplish His plans for our lives. What will this journey look like? Join us as we unpack God’s Word and invite you to walk with Christ. https://my.bible.com/events/45581307

Paradigm: I'm Dead to That

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 15 Oct 2020 13:29:54 +0000

Change can be slower than anticipated. A lot of time is spent on a superficial cover up, when a deep cleanup is needed. Christ accomplished the cleanup of sin on the cross, and like Him, we are called to die to sin daily. Join us as we open up God’s Word and discuss how we can functionally die to sin and continue to change our paradigm. https://my.bible.com/events/44658047

Paradigm: Your Choice

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 8 Oct 2020 12:59:26 +0000

When we put our faith in Christ, we have forgiveness of our sins and separation from sin itself. In Romans 6, we find, that because of Christ, we don’t have to listen to our sin nature; however, we do have a choice between sin and life in God. Through God’s Word, learn how we can walk in the newness of life that Christ offers. https://my.bible.com/events/43706756

Paradigm: Step One- Repentance

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 30 Sep 2020 18:56:44 +0000

Repentance is necessary to enter a right relationship with God. Jesus made a big deal about it, and so did Peter and Paul, but what is it exactly? Is it just saying sorry to God, or is it something more? Learn how repentance is the first step to transformative change and how to repent according to God’s Word. https://my.bible.com/events/42227198

Paradigm: Let's Get Specific

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 25 Sep 2020 03:26:50 +0000

Nothing is dynamic until it becomes specific. To become all that God has created us to be, we need to escape the generalities of what we are doing. We need to be specific in our walk with Christ. In surveying the Scriptures, we’ll discover the specific things God desires from us, and how that dictates our paradigm. https://my.bible.com/events/41197222

Paradigm: Resurrection Transformation

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 17 Sep 2020 01:00:31 +0000

“We cannot change what we do outwardly until God changes what we are inwardly.” Too often, we attempt to fix spiritual problems with physical solutions, while God made the solution through the life, death, and resurrection of Christ. Abundant Life lead pastor, Phil Hopper, reads Romans 6 and explains how we can establish patterns as followers of Christ. https://my.bible.com/events/40592497

Paradigm: New Paradigm

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 10 Sep 2020 13:36:38 +0000

We aren’t good with change. We make promises, declarations, and resolutions, but with no success. Despite all of our efforts, we know one thing: We need to change the way we change. Paradigm is kicking a new series called Paradigm. We’ll dive into Romans 7 to change the way we think according to God’s Word, so we can change the way we live. https://my.bible.com/events/39397744

One Night Standards: Dating Standards

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 26 Aug 2020 15:11:42 +0000

The Bible doesn’t talk about dating, but it does talk about the people we do life with. If marriage is one of the most significant relationships a person can have (apart from a relationship with Christ), shouldn’t dating be just as important? We all have different expectations, but what does God’s Word have to say about it? As we unpack God’s Word, we learn about the biblical approach to dating. https://my.bible.com/events/36627951

One Night Standards: A Different Standard

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 20 Aug 2020 13:57:41 +0000

We are all over the map in our standards for dating and relationships. In reading 1 Thessalonians 4, we find the believers’ call for romantic relationships is sexual purity, but what does that look like functionally? Challenge yourself as we learn about God’s will, way, and warning for sexual romance. https://my.bible.com/events/32141491

One Night Standards: Love Standards

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 12 Aug 2020 19:58:39 +0000

Love is more than a feeling. Often, we base our standard of love on talents, physical attraction, or feelings. This causes at best unmet expectations, and at worse, failure in romance. We need a new standard when it comes to love. Join us as we delve into 1 Corinthians 13, learning how to push past the feelings and words, and to love others with Christ’s love. https://www.bible.com/events/28885995

One Night Standards: New Standards

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 5 Aug 2020 14:43:46 +0000

Broken standards lead to broken relationships. The varying standards we have around our relationships often lead to frustration and devastation. We need new standards! Join us as we kick off a new series on One Night Standards. We’ll search the Scriptures, finding the standards of truth to combat the lies when it comes to sex. https://my.bible.com/events/27648472

Good News: Good News Bad News

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 9 Jul 2020 12:55:06 +0000

To understand the good news, we need to understand the bad news. If Jesus came to save us, what do we need saving from? Abundant Life lead pastor Phil Hopper explains from the book of Genesis how sin entered into the world and into our lives. https://my.bible.com/events/23373065

Good News: For You, Not About You

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 9 Jul 2020 12:44:33 +0000

The Good News of Jesus (AKA the Gospel) shows how we can have a right relationship with God. But is the Gospel just about Jesus saving us, or is it about something more? In surveying the Scriptures, we learn that the gospel is more about God than us (and why that’s a good thing!). https://my.bible.com/events/22107716

Ever feel frustrated? Irked? Annoyed? You may have a condition of the heart: anger. Anger fuels the behavior that can break our relationships. Jesus even says that it is on the same level as murder.

Heartland: How's your Heart?

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 20 May 2020 00:00:05 +0000

Jesus wants you to wash your hands, but more importantly, he wants you to wash your heart. In this series, we talk about the issues of the heart. Jesus said that the heart is more important than anything else. Solomon said to guard your heart above all else.

First John: This is a Test

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 22 Apr 2020 15:18:24 +0000

The enemy is known for offering counterfeits. Satan will cloud our minds with half-truths, so we cannot identify who God is and act on what His Word says. We need a strategy to prevent falling for the decoy and hold fast to the truth. Abundant Life Lead Pastor, Phil Hopper, provides a biblical-litmus test from God’s Word to examine if we are following Christ and the truth of the Gospel. https://livingproof.co/ministry/paradigm/

First John: DNA Test

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 17 Apr 2020 16:03:50 +0000

Do you love what God loves? Do you love how God loves? Are you part of God’s family? God loves all people, regardless of race and ethnicity, and His family is diverse. How can we make these things true in our lives? Join us we examine I John II and invite guest D’vante Mosby to reflect God’s love and diversity in our lives. https://livingproof.co/ministry/paradigm/

First John: Direction in the Downtime

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 8 Apr 2020 14:40:24 +0000

Bored and got nothing to do? We all have downtime, but often, this can result in idleness with little to no direction. Why not leverage that downtime to invest in a relationship with God? As we continue reading I John, we’ll discover how God directs us to make the decision to connect with Him. https://livingproof.co/ministry/paradigm/

First John: Watch the News

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 1 Apr 2020 19:04:50 +0000

In a world overflowing with news, it can be difficult to discern the truth. Throughout history, there has been one true headline that has changed the human heart and society: The good news of Jesus Christ. But — what is the good news? How do I respond to the good news? If there’s good news, is there fake news? Tune in as we look to God’s Word to answer these questions. https://livingproof.co/ministry/paradigm/

First John: Love on Lockdown

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 25 Mar 2020 16:13:46 +0000

What is love? It’s a word thrown around in the context of likes, interests, and relationships. Many times, we love the things that are created instead of the Creator. God desires a loving relationship with you, but what does it look like to have a loving relationship with Him? Join us as we unpack 1 John 2 and get our relationship with God on lock down. https://livingproof.co/ministry/paradigm/

Single Topic: Concerned Yet Confident

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Mon, 23 Mar 2020 18:55:18 +0000

Pestilence and pandemics may come your way, but if you know Christ, you can be confident in His control of any outcome. We can understand what the ending will be to help us learn how to live in the here and now. As we dive into the book of Hebrews, we’ll discuss how to use the Bible to interpret and navigate the chaos in life. https://livingproof.co/ministry/paradigm/

First John: Poppin' The Hood

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 11 Mar 2020 15:45:06 +0000

Car maintenance is tedious, but it’s needed for a good car to function. The same could be said for heart maintenance. When you place your faith in Christ and begin your right relationship with Him, areas of your life should look different. In I John, we’ll see how God’s Word can light up our dashboard and inform us how to follow Jesus in every area of life. https://my.bible.com/events/7133728

First John: Tasting the Gospel

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 4 Mar 2020 17:57:21 +0000

The foundations of our beliefs dictate our behavior and actions. Unveiling our personal foundations can help reveal their validity, but how do we do this? We’re starting a new series, walking verse by verse through the book of 1 John to talk about the main message of the Bible and how that intersects and shines light on the reality of our lives. https://my.bible.com/events/7118173

Crossroads: Crossroads of Career

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 19 Feb 2020 18:19:44 +0000

Many of us are frustrated with our job. We may have unmet expectations, we may feel stuck, but what if God has a different expectation for our occupation? Ephesians 2 tells us that when we decide to follow Jesus, we become God’s workmanship with a purpose. As we open God’s Word, we will discover the joy in working for His glory. https://my.bible.com/events/7064271

Crossroads: The Crossroads of Conflict

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Fri, 14 Feb 2020 15:14:44 +0000

In life, conflict is inevitable. We can’t avoid it, so we gotta learn how to make it healthy. Special guest and Story Hill Church Lead Pastor, Aaron Rodgers, guides us through James 4; tune in as he expounds on the causes of conflict, how conflict points to Jesus, and how He reshapes us to show more grace in conflict.

Crossroads: Crossroads of Cash

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 6 Feb 2020 20:06:25 +0000

Your money and your wallet reveal what you value. We’ve all got stuff: new devices, new shoes, new clothes... and our credit card bills keep rising. In His Sermon on the Mount, Jesus tells us not to store up treasures on earth. So what happens if we’re living for the wrong treasures — and where can we find true treasure? Find out as we open up God’s Word to form biblical convictions about our finances. https://my.bible.com/events/7055451

Crossroads: Crossroads of Sex

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Wed, 29 Jan 2020 17:14:01 +0000

Sex can be seen as a taboo subject to some, but not to God. He created it! If Jesus wants us to follow Him with our lives, that includes our sex life and His design for sex. As we expound on 1 Corinthians 6, we find that our bodies were bought for and paid in full by Christ, and trusting and honoring God in our sexuality involves operating under our body’s good design. https://my.bible.com/events/7050956

Crossroads: Crosswalk

alit@livingproof.co (Paradigm - Abundant Life) — Thu, 23 Jan 2020 23:04:40 +0000

Decisions, decisions, decisions. As young adults, the choices we make become more and more demanding on our lives. Is it possible to honor God in our decisions when the Bible doesn’t specifically speak about our unique situations? Join us as we unpack Ephesians 5 and navigate the crossroads of life through the crosswalk of God’s wisdom. https://my.bible.com/events/7046413
