In Scripture we read about two realms, each with their own authorities, motivations, and purposes. One is the kingdom of God and the other, the kingdom of this world. As members of God’s kingdom, we have been called to put off the ways of this world, but often its influence can subtly creep into our actions and thoughts without our awareness. So in this message, Dustin Renz helps us draw the boundary lines between these two realms more clearly. He also challenges us to ask the Lord to search us and show us where we may be giving the world and the devil a foothold in our lives.

The High Calling of the Christian Life
May 1, 2024
Jesus’ statements in John 15 about “abiding” are a common source of comfort for Christians today. But that wasn't their only intended purpose when Jesus spoke them to His disciples. In context, they also represent a call to action for all true believers; a call to be kept from our destructive natures by yielding ourselves to the true spiritual life that is in Jesus.

Jesus: The Only Way to the Father
April 24, 2024
Whenever Jesus used the phrase, “I am,” He was purposely identifying Himself with God. And when He said that He was “the way,” He was giving us one way of understanding the power and manner of His work for mankind. And in this sermon, Pure Life Residential Program Director, Luke Imperato, connects these great statements about Jesus to the great need of the man or woman struggling with pornography addiction and other forms of sexual sin.
