Episode Synopsis

Send us a textWe explore the difference between passive "consumer Christianity" and active faith that produces tangible fruit in believers' lives. Moving beyond the mindset of what we can get from our faith to how we can serve others transforms our spiritual journey.• Faith without works is dead (James), but works are the fruit of our faith, not what earns Grace• Active faith means living out our beliefs daily, not just during Sunday services • The Holy Spirit, not just our conscience, convicts and guides us toward active faith• God uses both willing believers and sometimes unwilling people to accomplish His purposes• Simple acts like taking out trash, holding doors, or praying with others are powerful expressions of faith• Carving out dedicated daily time with God (30-60 minutes) is the foundation for active faith• Surrender to God's will rather than trying to live out faith through human effort• Prayer creates opportunities for ministry, sometimes in divinely appointed momentsJoin us at Connect Church in Rockdale, Texas!
