If God has made himself known, why do so many people still miss him?In “Without Excuse,” part of our Jesus Unfiltered series, Pastor Carl Nichols explores John 1:6–13 and Romans 1:18–20 to unpack how God reveals himself through creation, Scripture, and the people he places in our lives.Through a memorable beach ball illustration, Pastor Carl challenges us to consider whether we’re seeking truth or pushing down what God has already made plain.But our resistance isn’t where the story ends. The God we have resisted still invites us into his family through Jesus. We cannot excuse our sin, and we cannot earn our rescue but we can receive his grace.Watch and consider: How are you responding to what God has revealed?📖 Scripture: John 1:6–13; Romans 1:18–20📍 Relevant Church🎤 Pastor Carl Nichols
