This message focuses on the transition from Moses to Joshua and asks, "Why didn’t Moses enter the Promised Land, and what enabled Joshua to succeed?"

Your time is up for staying where you are. God is calling you forward. Now is the time to step into the promises God has for you!…

Welcome to Part 1 of our Summer at Fuel series, where we dive into the heart of Revelation's message to the church in Laodicea. In this episode, titled "I Wanna Be a ‘Big Gulp’," we explore how the words of Jesus challenge us to examine our spiritual temperature. Are we hot, cold, or merely lukewarm? Drawing from Revelation 3:14-22, Pastor Alex unpacks the powerful imagery of being "spit out" due to spiritual indifference. We're invited to exchange our lukewarm complacency for a vibrant faith that's tested and purified like gold in the fire (Revelation 3:18a, 1 Corinthians 3:12-13, 1 Peter 1:6-7).
