Chris Bates Ministries

In week one of our Christmas series, A Thrill of Hope, we take a look at how God uses the most unlikely characters to tell his amazing story of grace and redemption.

Confidence is great, while it lasts, the problem is that it's easy to lose, break, or misplace. What happens when we don't perform our best? How do we bounce back? The Bible talks a lot about where we can find real and lasting confidence and how we can get it back if it's lost. We hope this message inspires and strengthens you as you walk with God.

What is our life producing? Is it good? Is it healthy? Jesus teaches us in Matthew 7:15-20 about how to spot something real, by testing its fruit. As Christ-followers, we are encouraged to live lives worthy of our calling so we can bear good fruit in every season of life. We pray this practical message called, "Grow Something Better", inspires you to live out your best life in Christ.
