Part 1

As followers of Jesus, there may come a time when your faith waffles between confidence and doubt, belief and skepticism. Navigating these competing convictions during times is what this series is all about and navigating the times when your unbelief may take over.

Many people, you may be included, think that Jesus’ essential message, His reason for showing up in the first place is to do more good than bad while we are here on earth. Then, at the end of our life, God will say, “thanks for your effort, the good you did outweigh the bad, so your ultimate destiny is heaven, not hell.” However, this isn’t the message of the Bible. The real message of Jesus begins in Mark 1: 1, when he opens the gospel accounts of Jesus by culminating Israel’s story and the fulfilment of the promise of God. Jesus has arrived; the Good News has come. Jesus is destined to live among His people and to rescue them. The core of the core of Jesus’ message is about God coming here, on earth, and on God’s activities and purpose, not our behaviour. The grand vision of God, the Good News, has arrived – Jesus has come to address the problem and resolve it. The Kingdom of Heaven isn’t a place we go to when we die, it’s already here.

When Jesus comes to earth, the Kingdom of God has arrived to invade earth and to confront evil by ridding the world of a hell-free existence. His life is a complete picture of human potential that only gives, only loves, and only others centered. His death and resurrection create the possibility of an existence free from hells influence, so repent and believe in the Good News.

The invitation is to join Jesus in continuing the work that He started by creating pockets of heaven on earth where His Kingdom reigns and His will done.

Part 2

Who’s voice are you listening to?

The number of voices that are available to us can be overwhelming and confusing with social media influencers, people weighing in on what you should do or shouldn’t do, self-help books, various experts, there is never a shortage of information to help you make a decision or influence a decision. Sometimes, we are so desperate to fix our situation, we are willing to listen to the right voice to change our situation, help us make a decision or to fix ourselves. We all have a choice on who we follow and who we listen to and there are many voices out there to chose from!

A – Advice. Seek advice from other believers. That is why it is so important to do life with other Christians.

B – Bible. Read God’s word and get to know Jesus by reading about His life. As you begin to learn more you’ll be able to discern more about who He is and what He is not.

C. Common Sense. God gave us a brain for a reason so we can think about what really matters. This also prompts us to ask ourselves if what we are hearing is something Jesus would say?

There are lots of voices, some good and some dangerous. Have you decided which voice is going to be the most important and which one you’re going to trust? It is up to you to decide – to draw a line in the sand... out of all the voices in the world whose voice do you want to lead you?

Part 3

Have you ever prayed for a sign? Asked for a miracle and in return your belief will solidify? If you have, you are not alone!

The desire to ask God for proof has been around for a long time. Even when Jesus was standing right in front of people and performing miracles, people still asked for something to base their understanding of Jesus on! 

Without the belief in the resurrection, everything falls away. Jesus points to the resurrection. He told the skeptics and the saints to watch and see. The events around the resurrection are at the core of Christian faith and can carry us through times of unbelief.

Part 4

Have you every wondered if God really is who He says He is? Does He even care about us? Pastor Brody shares some of his struggles during a dark time.

Sometimes, we can be like those who walked away from Jesus, and we can slide our attention toward what Jesus does for us, rather than who He is to us. When you look back at struggles in your life, how will you respond to Jesus? Will it be to walk away from Him, or will you see Him walking along side you, carrying you through those struggles and knowing exactly where He was in those times.

If you are new to faith, or sometimes struggle with your unbelief, start with Jesus. Jesus asks us to follow Him and promises that He will show us the way and the truth. When you do, you, like the disciples, will come to learn that He is right about everything.
