What You'll Discover:
• Why hiding your Christian identity at work or school damages your spiritual growth
• The dangerous pattern of "silent Christianity" and code-switching your faith
• How past compromises can feel like concrete keeping you trapped
• Three practical steps to move from drifting to driven in your relationship with God
• The connection between Esther's story and last-day events for Seventh-day Adventists

Key Topics Covered:

- The power of prayer, community, and decisive choice
- Breaking free from spiritual compromise
- Biblical principles for authentic Christian living

Sam Walters shares personal testimonies about standing firm on Sabbath observance in his career and challenges listeners to embrace their identity in Christ without compromise. Using the historical context of Esther, Mordecai, and Haman, he draws parallels to modern-day pressures Christians face in secular environments.

This message is perfect for young adults, professionals, students, and anyone feeling pressure to compromise their Christian values. Whether you're struggling with workplace expectations, academic pressures, or social acceptance, this sermon provides biblical guidance for living authentically as a follower of Christ.

From Drifting to Driven: Overcoming Compromise in Your Christian Walk - Sam Walters - GTAN2541

In the last sermon of of our series "What is the church?", Jer explores the true meaning of church community, contrasting it with worldly ideas of togetherness focused on self-interest. He revisits key features of a biblical church—sound teaching, true conversion, evangelism, and discipleship—culminating in the role of community. The sermon highlights baptism, the Lord’s Supper, and church membership as central expressions of belonging, emphasizing that these acts are ultimately about Jesus and sharing in His presence. You are invited to reflect on the deep reality of God with us and the importance of living out faith together through encouragement, accountability, and mutual care. If you’re seeking a deeper understanding of what it means to be part of a church family, this sermon will offer both theological depth and practical wisdom.

What Is The Church? – Part 5 || Community

Unhoused constituents reported waking up to a heavy turnout of LAPD officers, just before an encampment sweep on Thursday, Oct. 9, 2025. They said they were lined up and detained, before sanitation workers had shown up, many of them issued citations for LA's anti-camping law 41.18. 

Some of those constituents confronted and sought answers from LA City Council member Eunisses Hernandez's staffer, Eric Ares, who identified himself as the office's district director (he has served as the office's Director of Housing and Homelessness).

Eloquently Saying Nothing

ESN #533 : The Hair & Nails Episode

Submission and Accountability |  07 September 2025 | Richard Langworthy

Submission and Accountability

Beyond the rightness or wrongness of things there is a field, I'll meet you there
Rumi
 
Many of us carry the heavy weight of blame - pointing fingers at others, ourselves, or even life itself. And sometimes, we're burdened by guilt for things completely out of our control. This talk explores an important question: how can we release the need for judgment and assigning fault, while still remaining fully accountable for our actions and our lives? 
 
Join us to discover how letting go of blame can lighten the load of the past and help us to create a positive future.

No-one is to Blame - Marcelo Bulk  - Thursday 25th September 2025

You gave me everything and I just took it
Said you needed more, I said you're tripping
Now you're with somebody who actually tries
And I'm sitting here like damn, that should've been my life
I can't even blame you
I'd leave me too
My bad, my bad
I fucked it up, that's facts
You begged me to change and I never did
Now you're gone and I get it
My bad, my bad
Can't take it back, that's that
I had everything I wanted right there
And I didn't care
My bad
Your mom still texts me on my birthday
That shit hurts 'cause I know what she probably say
About the guy you're with now, how he treats you right
How he shows up, does the things I couldn't do right
And I'm not gonna sit here
And act like you were wrongChorus:
My bad, my bad
I fucked it up, that's facts
You begged me to change and I never did
Now you're gone and I get it
My bad, my bad
Can't take it back, that's that
I had everything I wanted right there
And I didn't care
My bad
I hope he's good to you
I hope he does the shit I wouldn't do
Takes you out, meets your friends
Doesn't cancel plans again
I hope you're happy now
'Cause you deserve better than what I gave you
And that's the truth
My bad, my bad
I fucked it up, that's facts
You gave me chances and I wasted them
Can't say I didn't deserve this
My bad, my bad
Can't take it back, that's that
I had everything I wanted right there
And I threw it all away
My bad
Yeah, my bad
(I know it's my bad)
(Can't take it back)

MY BAD
