Fame Without Power Will Ruin You | Prayer Births Power | Luke 5:15-16 6:33

3d ago6:33

6:33

In Part 10 of the Growing Into the Image of God series, Josiah explores Luke 5:15-16 to highlight the essential relationship between prayer and power. Whether you’re praying with others or withdrawing to be alone with God, both are vital. Corporate prayer sharpens you, but it’s in private prayer that you’re preserved and fueled. As your influence g…

Transformation through Sanctification | The Concept of Sanctification | John 17:17 2:47

10d ago2:47

2:47

In Part 9 of the Growing Into the Image of God series, Josiah teaches on John 17:17 and the powerful connection between sanctification and truth. Sanctification isn’t just a spiritual upgrade—it’s the process by which God prepares you to reflect His image. And without the Word, that process doesn’t begin. The Word of God is the tool that cleanses, …

Holiness Isn’t Just About Sexual Purity | The Concept of Holiness | 1 Peter 1:15-16 4:03

18d ago4:03

4:03

In this episode, Josiah breaks down 1 Peter 1:15-16 to reclaim the true meaning of holiness. Too often, holiness is reduced to avoiding sexual sin—but that’s only a fraction of the picture.

25d ago6:15

6:15

In this episode, Josiah walks through Galatians 5:22-24 to remind us that the fruit of the Spirit isn’t optional—it’s the visible evidence of a life surrendered to Christ. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control aren’t just character traits—they are boundaries that shape how we reflect God. If you …

1M ago5:44

5:44

In this episode, Josiah dives into Colossians 3:12-14 to uncover the deeper roots of true forgiveness. Forgiveness isn’t just about saying “I forgive you”—it’s a product of love, built on the foundation of forbearance. God, in His wisdom, created a system that makes room for human error, repeated mistakes, and yet still offers grace. When you under…
