Opening with the imagery of an echo, Miguel explains that just as an echo carries the essence of the original sound, God's holiness resonates throughout creation, inviting us to reflect His character in every aspect of our lives. Drawing from Isaiah 6:3 and Revelation 4:8, we see the angels eternally declaring "Holy, holy, holy," a reminder of the unchanging and exalted nature of God.

Through the acronym E.C.H.O., we dive into four key aspects of God's holiness:

Exalted – God is high above all things, yet intimately knows each of us.

Consecrated – We are called to live set apart, reflecting His purity.

Holy Ground – Experiencing God's presence transforms any space into a sacred place.

Otherness – God is completely different from creation, yet invites us near through Jesus.

This message challenges us to live out God's holiness daily, impacting our thoughts, relationships, and priorities. As we grasp His holiness, we’re invited to echo it in our lives, becoming reflections of His light in a world in need.

Grace Over Politics

In a world filled with division and strong opinions, how can we as Christians stay focused on what truly matters? In this powerful message, we explore the idea of “Grace Over Politics” and what it means to live as citizens of Heaven first. Through personal insights, historical examples, and a look at Scripture, this sermon challenges us to embrace unity, choose grace, and walk in step with the Holy Spirit—even in a divided world. We’ll also revisit the heartache of the Civil War, when Abraham Lincoln called the nation to heal rather than divide further, and see how this lesson still speaks to us today. Whether you’re navigating personal conflicts, political differences, or simply looking to deepen your connection with God and others, this message encourages you to keep Jesus at the center and to make every relationship a reflection of His love and grace.
