Piercing the Darkness - Our Hope: How God Works in History, Part 2
Description
If you watch the nightly news or scroll through social media, you would think everything is hopeless and too terrible to fix. But in this program, Chip challenges that idea by looking at how God has worked throughout history and the ways He is active right now. Hear why, despite all the negativity and evil happening in our world, we can trust God and His plan of redemption.
Main Points
5 Realities of our world today:
- We are living in a dark world locally, nationally, and globally.
- God’s story from beginning to end gives us a certain hope to pierce the darkness.
- Jesus’ “life” is the light and the darkness can never overcome it.
- God’s greatest work has always occurred in the darkest moments in human history.
- Jesus’ “life” (what He actually did) launched His Kingdom of light movement by starting small, dreaming big, and going deep.
Jesus Modeled:
- Surrender to the Father
- Separation from the world
- Sober self-assessment
- Serving in love
- Supernatural response to evil
Jesus Commanded:
- Surrender all
- Separate from the world
- Sober self-assessment
- Serve in love

We must BE what we want others to BECOME.
