Honing in on the idea that holiness doesn’t mean we live a life of perfection, but rather means we are set apart. And how when we lose our identity in Christ, it makes us forget who we actually are, a SET APART people. 

This week in our series Holy and Whole, Pastor Joshua unpacked what it really means to live a Holy Life— not the kind you “earn,” but the kind God freely gives. Through the story of Elijah, we’re reminded that God meets us in our exhaustion, restores what life has drained, and prepares us for what’s ahead.

This week, Pastor Joshua continued our Holy and Whole series with a deeply refreshing message on what it means to truly rest. Teaching from 1 Kings 19:5–8 (NLT), he reminded us that rest isn’t something we earn after everything is finished — it’s something God designed us to need.Through Elijah’s story, we see a God who steps into our exhaustion, feeds what life has drained, and gently prepares us for what’s ahead. Pastor Joshua invited us to let go of the things we’ve been carrying on our own, to open our hearts to what we’ve been missing, and to reconnect with God’s presence in a real and restoring way.As we learn to release, receive, and trust, we discover that rest isn’t just about slowing down — it’s about becoming strengthened for the journey God is leading us into."I said yes to Jesus!" - Click Here!Connect with us!instagram.com/lifechurchroaFacebook.com/lifechurchroalifechurchroa.org
