5 Things Christians Should Stop Doing in the New Year

There are some things in our lives that need to be left behind in 2025 as we step into 2026! As Christians, we need to abandon our idols, leave distractions in the dust, and actually pursue the Lord righteously. I hope this episode encourages you as you embark on a new year, God's way!

It's obvious that there is divisiveness in the world, but it's hard for us to accept the divisiveness we see in the church. What if Christians could achieve real unity and see that carry over into how we engage with culture?

Jesus calls us to forgive, but that doesn't mean it's easy. What is easy is to hold onto bitterness, resentment, and to hold onto those debts that our debtors owe us... but Christ calls us to live differently. To live free and to forgive because He freed and forgave us. I know this message may be hard for some, but my friend Yana Jenay Conner gracefully invites us all to walk out in forgivness and live beyond offense God's way, and her story will inspire you to do the same!

How often do we take our own blessings for granted? And how much more often do we neglect to steward what we've been given to make a life-changing and Gospel impact for those in need? I am partnering with Smartian's Purse this holiday season and had the pleasure of interviewing Kristy Graham to discuss how their ministry is changing the world one donation at a time. From beekeeping to raising chicks, all to feeding starving babies and digging wells, I want to encourage my listeners to give alongside me this holiday season and to reflect the heart of Christ this Christmas!
