HOPEFUL: Day - By - Day | Pastor Steve Morris | 1-18-26

Описание: What does it actually look like to follow Jesus day by day?

In this message from our Hopeful series, we unpack how real discipleship isn’t about perfection, dramatic leaps, or trying to live your whole faith journey at once. It’s about daily dependence, obedience, and delighting in hope as we walk closely with Christ one step at a time.

This sermon speaks directly to anyone who feels overwhelmed, burned out, stuck in cycles of temptation, or unsure how to grow spiritually. Jesus isn’t asking you to sprint — He’s inviting you to walk with Him today.

💡 Topics include:
✔️ Why hope without action leads to stagnation
✔️ Living the Christian life day by day (Matthew 6:34)
✔️ Why God often chooses the overlooked and marginalized
✔️ Daily dependence on God instead of stored-up strength
✔️ Intimacy with God and learning to hear His voice
✔️ Obedience in small moments that shape a faithful life
✔️ Finding refuge, joy, and renewal in Christ
✔️ Discovering your role in the body of Christ

✨ If you’ve been trying to do too much, too fast — this message is a reminder that God meets us right where we are, and His mercies are new every morning.
