In the city of Antioch, believers in Jesus were first called Christians, a name given by outsiders rather than chosen by themselves. The term meant “little Christ” and reflected their lifestyle, but Jesus emphasized discipleship, which goes deeper than a label. The Bible mentions “Christian” only three times, while “disciple” appears over 250 times, showing God’s greater focus on transformed lives. Being a disciple means living out Christ’s teachings daily, not just carrying a title or symbol. The difference is like wearing gym clothes versus actually exercising, or owning a fishing pole versus catching fish. While the name Christian can be honorable, discipleship is where real fruit, obedience, and lasting joy are found. Ultimately, God calls His people not just to carry His name but to embody His ways, living as true disciples whose lives reflect Christ beyond the label.

This weekend's sermon. Integrity is the anchor of character, holding us steady when life tests our strength. Accountability may feel heavy, but it nourishes growth and keeps us honest before God and others. Honesty builds trust, not through perfection, but through consistency in even the smallest details. Forgiveness frees the heart, cleansing the past and opening the door for grace to flow. Humility shapes our actions, reminding us that strength is found in service, not in pride. Leadership is not a title but a trail of trustworthy footsteps others can safely follow. Together, integrity, accountability, humility, and forgiveness weave a legacy that points hearts toward God’s truth and love.

Prayer is not a quick voicemail to God but a real, ongoing conversation with our Heavenly Father. The Bible teaches that effective prayer is fervent, passionate, sincere, and heartfelt, not routine or casual. For our prayers to be powerful, they must align with God’s will, and the Holy Spirit helps guide us when we don’t know what to ask. God invites us to make our requests known, not because He needs the information, but because prayer deepens our trust and relationship with Him. When combined with thanksgiving, prayer becomes truly effective, unlocking God’s answers and transforming our lives.

The sermon teaches that while the world may feel overwhelming, prayer is powerful and can influence leaders, communities, and nations. Scripture calls us to pray for those in authority, trusting God to give them wisdom and to grant us peace that steadies our hearts. By praying faithfully, even in simple ways, we partner with God to bring about change, knowing He generously gives wisdom and works through our prayers.
