"Back to the Future" by Joakim Lundqvist

Imagine how our lives could change if we prayed bold prayers! In our new “Built Different” series, Pastor Daniel kicks off the new year by teaching us that prayer isn’t passive. When we draw near to God, our faith grows as we pray promises from His Word, prioritize fasting, and trust God to move powerfully in our everyday lives.

In his message “Back to the Future” Pastor Joakim Lundqvist reflects on God’s faithfulness and looks ahead to all God wants to do in a new year and new season. He reminds us that even in seasons of weeping, God leads His people from strength to strength. God’s presence, a rising new generation, and a renewed passion for the lost carry us into the new year, encouraging us to keep moving forward with courage, purpose, and hearts set on pilgrimage.

God doesn’t wait for us to get it right—He runs to meet us where we are. While the world expects us to earn our way back, God welcomes the broken, pursues the lost, and waits patiently for His children to come home. In our series, “His Name Shall Be Called,” Pastor Daniel shares the parable of the prodigal son to reveal our Everlasting Father who restores and celebrates, inviting us to experience that same redeeming love found only in Jesus Christ!
