In this deeply personal conversation, Pastor Mike speaks to someone struggling with sin, frustration toward church leadership, and a desire for true discipleship. He addresses the pain of feeling unsupported, the danger of bitterness, and the importance of personal repentance and spiritual reset.
Pastor Mike explains that discipleship begins with humility, teachability, and a right heart before God—not frustration or judgment toward others. He encourages believers to avoid painting entire churches or leaders with broad criticism, and instead pursue healing, accountability, and growth.
With practical guidance from Scripture—especially Romans 7–8 and Colossians 3—this message offers hope for anyone battling sin, discouragement, or disappointment in the church. The path forward is clear: repent, reset, and pursue Christ with renewed love, humility, and perseverance.

3/7/2026The world is wearing out Christians. More and more are saying that spiritual matters rarely come up in their conversations with other believers. Our culture hasn't silenced us, we have talked ourselves into silence. Where Christians should be having an impact, they are stepping aside instead of stepping up.
If you want to break your silence and shine a light into this culture, be sure to request the book Making a Difference by R.C. Sproul.
