GOD SPEAKS. ARE YOU LISTENING?
This series explores how God communicates with us in everyday life-through Scripture, circumstances, people, prayer, and the Holy Spirit. It challenges us to tune our hearts and minds to recognize and listen to God’s voice and respond with obedience. By diving into biblical and personal examples, the series invites us to deepen our spiritual discernment and prayer life to develop a more intimate relationship with God.

Woe To You
In one of the greatest take-downs ever, Jesus confronts the Pharisees, resulting in what is known as The Seven Woes. Throughout history, Christians have loved Jesus for His raw and spot-on exposure of the hypocrisy and callousness that often comes with high levels of authority. Less popular, however, is turning the mirror on ourselves. The truth about us is that modern-day Christianity has regressed into an often judgmental, unfeeling dogma. This week, we put the spotlight on ourselves and wonder if Jesus might say to us, "Woe to you."
