Established, Anointed, and Sealed
As we continue in our identity series we discuss Corinthians where Paul tells the church they are established, anointed, and sealed through the Holy Spirit. When we come to Christ we need to understand the power which comes with that transfer in our lives. Our soul becomes sealed with by the Holy Spirit, anoints us with power, and establishes us in perfection. Come join as Jose Ortiz III joins us!
Accessing Heaven
Oftentimes when we become Christians we fail to realize the abilities God gives us. One of the greatest gifts which comes through Christ is the ability to have access to our Father through the Spirit. We can go to God in prayer in any situation and He is there listening. Satan wants us to believe we are alone but God wants us to remember He is a loving father waiting for us to come to Him.

Citizens of Heaven
For so many of us we identify with our professions or our titles or even as a nation. The bible takes a metaphor and gives us an understanding that spiritually we are citizens of Heaven and our identity is in who God says we are. We unpack this topic a little more in our series on identity.
Church Army - James Jonas
In our culture we always hear about healing and comforting others but what do we do in times when we receive healing? What are the next steps? The church is not just an infirmary for the broken and hurting but an army to be sent out and conquer. Today we talk about discipleship, operating in the Holy Spirit, and being the biblical version of church.

Testimony: Jose Ortiz
Carried on to Completion
I Am Whole
If you've ever felt broken or tattered it can be hard to go on living. Christ never meant for us to be broken and He came to mend us mind, body, and soul. In today's episode we finish up our topic of Sainthood and begin talking about our completeness in Christ. Paul tells us everything is fulfilled in Christ and so are we. It's part of our spiritual armor to know we are filled with Christ and His Spirit.

Church Around the World
In today's episode of The Heart of the Matter we discuss identity in Christ and how it is expressed in our worship. We talk about the problems that have arisen within the body over a number of issues, like church on multiple levels. Join us as we talk about how we can identify who we are as children of God, uniting under his love, above all else.
We talk about the idea of a global body of Christ so often that it's sometimes easy to forget that we may not all believe the same things. But if we don't allow ourselves to be challenged, we'll never understand the truth in its fullest form.
One of the most amazing things about being a Christian is the ability to be a part of something so much bigger than ourselves. As an American, we’re used to thinking of our own personal faith and the way it intersects with our life as independent from that of others in America. But as we live through a time with fragile geo-politics and the prospect of a long war between Ukraine and Russia, understanding our identity in the Body and in the church is vital to discussion. The body of Christ is global. But how do we live up to our calling as Christ's children?
