What does it look like to live out a redeemed life? We seek to answer that question from 2 Corinthians 5. Redemption Life Fellowship is a new church in Greenville, SC that seeks to point people to Jesus and the Redeemed Life He offers!

Redemption Life Fellowship is a new church in Greenville, SC launching in September 2023. In this episode we unpack our fourth core value, Enjoying God! Loving Others “Caring for people with no expectation of return by putting their needs above ours. If we are freely committed to living in a community where others’ needs are more important than our own, we will truly taste Christ's unconditional love.”

Redemption Life Fellowship is a new church in Greenville, SC launching in September 2023. In this episode we unpack our fourth core value, Enjoying God! Seeking our highest happiness in Him alone in and through all things. Short-lived pleasure in temporal gifts is not how God intended our happiness to work. He hardwired us to value Him first, regardless of our circumstances. The more we express gratitude for His love, willingly participate in worship, regularly spend time with Him, and cling to His hope in hard times, the more we can find eternal joy.

Redemption Life Fellowship is a new church in Greenville, SC launching in September 2023. In this episode we unpack our third core value, Spirit-Led! Spirit-Led  “Attempting to listen for and be sensitive to the guidance of the Holy Spirit in our lives. This kind of dependence on the Spirit that Jesus modeled might be reflected in faithful prayer, spiritual gift(s), fruit of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control), helping other Christians in their struggle with sin, listening for what He may be speaking to your heart, and even singing with other believers.”

Redemption Life Fellowship is a new church in Greenville, South Carolina meeting as a core group planning to launch in September 2023. Grace Centered: Making a big deal of the undeserved love, kindness, and compassion of God, especially in what he has done through Jesus. To obtain a gift of infinite worth and not tell others of its value belittles the Giver of that gift. Thus, our walking in the gift of God’s grace entails extending that grace to others.

In this Advent message from Luke 2:1-16, RLF Elder Dave Whitaker reminds us that the angels’ announcement wasn’t just cute Christmas-pageant material—it was terrifying glory breaking into a fearful world. The heart of the good news is simple and life-changing: God did not send a coach, a second chance, or more rules; He sent a Savior, Christ the Lord. This gospel is not for people who do enough—it is for all people who trust what Jesus has already done. When we stop leveraging our performance and start giving God the weight and glory He deserves, fear is replaced with the deep peace the angels promised—a powerful call to preach this Christmas gospel to ourselves every single day.

From a Roman prison, Paul penned the most joy-saturated letter in the New Testament, proving that true joy is not rooted in circumstances but in the all-sufficiency of Christ. Reviewing the book chapter-by-chapter, the pastor highlighted how Paul’s chains advanced the gospel, how Jesus’ humility in Philippians 2 becomes the pattern for every believer, how every earthly achievement is rubbish compared to knowing Christ, and how anxiety gives way to peace and contentment when we rely on Christ’s strength. Distilling the letter into four lifelong anchors—Christ is our Life, our Pattern, our Treasure, and our Strength—the sermon called the church to move beyond a catchy tagline and make “Christ is my everything” the daily rhythm of individual lives and the defining identity of the congregation, so that a watching world would see authentic, joy-filled, gospel-shaped people who enjoy God, love others, and live as open invitations to the redeemed life Jesus offers.

How can a man in prison overflow with joy and declare, “I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need”? In the closing words of Philippians, Paul reveals the life-changing truth that true contentment, generous living, and unshakable confidence are never found in changing circumstances—but in an all-sufficient Savior.In this message, we unpack three gospel realities that reshape how we walk through life’s highs and lows:The secret of contentment that doesn’t rise and fall with our situationThe beauty and power of sacrificial partnership in the gospelThe rock-solid promise that God will supply every need according to His riches in glory in Christ JesusWhether you’re in a season of abundance or aching with unmet desires, this episode will point you to the One who is always enough. Perfect for anyone wrestling with discontentment, financial pressure, disappointment, or the daily search for lasting joy.Listen in, bring your Bible to Philippians 4, and discover the secret of the satisfied soul.

In Philippians 4:1-9, Paul (from prison) shows us how to get off the anxiety roller-coaster and live grounded in Christ. Instead of dragging everyone around us through our worry, conflict, and need for control, we can rejoice always, pray about everything, and think on what is true — because Jesus is near, He is good, and He is enough.

www.rlf.churchIn Philippians 3:17-21, Paul urges believers to run the Christian race together by imitating faithful examples, rejecting those whose lives oppose the cross, and fixing their hope on heavenly citizenship. With tearful warning, he contrasts self-centered impostors—driven by appetite, shame, and earthly focus—against the church’s true identity as a colony of heaven awaiting Christ’s return. The same power that holds the universe will one day transform our frail bodies into glorious ones like His, making every step of endurance a preview of home. The sermon calls us to keep our eyes on Jesus, live as citizens of another kingdom, and let grace fuel joyful perseverance until faith becomes sight.

Visit us online at rlf.churchIn Philippians 3:12-16, Paul admits he hasn’t arrived at perfection but presses on with one focus: forgetting the past and straining toward the prize of knowing Christ fully. The world’s “shiny things”—comfort, achievements, approval—promise joy but deliver brokenness. Maturity isn’t flawlessness; it’s daily dependence on the Holy Spirit to reveal distorted thinking about past identities, failures, or present temptations, and to reframe reality through the lens of resurrection hope. When the Spirit corrects our vision, future glory in Jesus overshadows temporary struggles, fueling joy now as we live and sacrifice like Christ.

In this sermon, we dive into Philippians 3:1-11, unpacking Paul’s radical shift in perspective: counting everything as loss compared to the surpassing worth of knowing Christ. From spiritual résumés to rewritten balance sheets, discover how grace flips our ideas of gain and loss—and why true joy is found not in what we achieve for God, but in what we receive from Him.Perfect for your commute, workout, or quiet time—listen in and let the gospel reorient your heart.Redemption Life Fellowship: www.rlf.church🎧 New Sermons drop weekly📖 Philippians: In Everything…Rejoice🗓 October 26, 2025#RLFGreenville #Philippians #KnowChrist #GospelJoy

The Gospel Becoming Visible, Philippians 2:19-30 (Derek Harm)

Join us at Redemption Life Fellowship for this powerful message from Philippians 2:12-18, where we explore Paul's call to allow what God has worked in His children through Jesus' finished work in the Gospel to work outward revaling Christ in everything we do and say, cancel complaining with gratitude, and cling to the Word with joyful perseverance—all powered by God's energizing work within us.Big Idea: Because God is at work in us, we are called to live out our salvation by obedience, gratitude, and joyful perseverance.

In this passage from Philippians 2:5-11, often referred to as the "hymn of Christ," Paul inverts worldly notions of success. Our culture obsesses over climbing higher, but Jesus shows that true glory comes through humility. Because Jesus humbled Himself to death on the cross, God exalted Him above all. We are called to adopt Christ's mindset of humility, follow His example of descent, and rejoice in His exaltation. This leads to joy in any circumstance when Christ is our everything. The big idea of Philippians: "I can rejoice through anything when Christ is my everything." Applied to daily life, this means seeing challenges as opportunities to serve, prioritizing others, and finding hope in the gospel story where the way down is the way up.

This message from Philippians 2:1-4 challenges us to lay down selfish ambitions and pursue unity with the mind of Christ. Discover how the Gospel fosters joyful humility, enabling us to rejoice in all things because Jesus is our everything.
