The Bible contains some rather in-your-face verses about what it takes to be a true follower of Jesus Christ and not just a fan! In this message, we’ll study one of those passages found in James 2:19-20! It’s a shocking passage that talks about ‘demon-faith’ and ‘Christian-atheists’! This all leads us to a dive into what it means to truly surrender to God!

We often think ‘God doesn’t want fans! He wants followers!’ and yet our passage for this message, Hebrews 12:1-3 lets us know God loves fans! God has lined up all sorts of fans!...but you might be shocked at who they are cheering for! In this message, we will study three proofs that God isn’t calling you to be a fan!
