Values don’t just shape behavior, they shape desire.

And desire always determines direction.

Before Presence is a feeling,

it’s a way of living before God’s face.

Not hype. Not performance. Not religion on autopilot.

Presence is relational before it’s experiential.

It’s God being known, not just near.

When Presence leads:

• Prayer becomes dependence

• Proclamation carries weight

• People become sacred

• Power becomes authentic

Without Presence, even success is failure.

This is about learning to walk with God

in ordinary moments, unseen decisions,

and everyday obedience.

Presence isn’t something you chase.

It’s Someone you behold.

And when His face becomes your focus,

everything else finds its place.

Presence doesn’t just touch us, it forms us.

Walk before His face.

As you go.

2026 has a word.

Not a slogan. Not a vibe. A weight.

We sing it.

We shout it.

But this word won’t let you stay casual.

When it shows up in Scripture:

• People fall

• Systems shake

• Sin is exposed

• History bends

The word is GLORY.

Glory isn’t hype.

It’s the manifested weight of who God is, His holiness, goodness, authority, and truth made visible.

And here’s the mystery: Christ in you, the hope of glory. Colossians 1:27

We don’t give God glory because He lacks it.

We give Him glory by removing rivals.

By acknowledging Him as the heaviest reality in the room.

2026 isn’t about chasing moments.

It’s about carrying weight.

If God is truly first:

• His Word weighs more than feelings

• His presence matters more than pace

• His kingdom outweighs convenience

This is the year we slow down enough to feel again.

This is the year we reorder what matters.

This is the year glory stops being a concept and becomes a lifestyle.

We all come to Christmas for different reasons.

Some come for theology—God with us, light entering darkness, hope stepping into history.

Some come longing for meaning, peace, or a sense that the world might still be redeemable.

Some come for family, tradition, nostalgia, generosity, or simply to survive the winter.

And some come carrying grief, loneliness, and quiet exhaustion.

The Christian claim is not that Christmas fits only one of those stories.

It’s that the birth of Jesus is wide enough to meet all of them.

In this teaching, we tear down the cardboard version of Christmas and return to the disruptive reality of Luke 2. God does not enter history from the top, but from the bottom. No palace. No power play. No room in the home. God arrives already displaced—crowded out not by hostility, but by distraction.

We follow the story from the manger to the fields, where hope is announced not to the impressive, but to the overlooked. Shepherds—ceremonially unclean, socially invisible—become the first witnesses of God’s intervention. Not because they were qualified, but because they were awake in the dark and available.

This episode explores why biblical hope does not fix your life—it adopts you into a new one. Drawing from Romans 5 and John 1, we see that God’s answer to suffering is not explanation, but belonging. Christmas does not promise an easier life. It promises that you will never face it as an orphan again.

Finally, we confront the unavoidable question of Christmas: not whether you admire the story, but whether you will receive the Person. To receive Jesus is not to agree with an idea—it is to make space, to take hold, and to be given a new name: child.

Christmas is not soft.

It is not safe.

It is God interrupting history at the lowest level and offering a home to anyone willing to receive Him.

This episode invites you to stop observing Christmas—and to step into it.

Not pressure.

Not performance.

Just posture.

Will you receive?

For many of us, the word peace no longer carries wonder. We’ve heard it promised cheaply, preached softly, and reduced to emotional relief. But Scripture never treats peace as fragile or shallow. Biblical peace is formed in the middle of shaking, not in the absence of it.

In this teaching, we trace one of the most overlooked promises in Scripture: God does not promise stability, He promises presence. From Haggai’s prophecy of global shaking to Simeon’s quiet encounter in the temple, we discover that peace is always tied to a place where God chooses to dwell.

Haggai declares, “In this place I will give peace,” even while nations are being shaken. Centuries later, that promise is fulfilled not with spectacle, but with nearness, when peace is no longer announced, but held. Simeon departs in peace not because the world has changed, but because God is finally close.

This episode connects:

• The shaking of Haggai 2

• The fulfillment in Luke 2

• The relocation of God’s dwelling in John 1

• And the pattern of meeting God in intentional places throughout Scripture

You will hear why peace has never been automatic, why it requires return and attention, and why Christmas is not about emotional calm but incarnational presence. This message invites repentance from chasing feelings and a return to choosing a place where God is welcomed.

Peace is not found by accident.

Peace is formed through encounter.

The question this episode leaves us with is simple and piercing:

Have you chosen a place to meet with God, or are you still hoping peace will find you on its own?

UNBREAKABLE JOY || Luke 2:8–14 || Sergio Fesiuk

In this episode we confront a Christmas passage we think we know, but rarely truly see. Luke 2 is not a cozy holiday scene; it is a cosmic invasion. Heaven tears open the night sky, the glory of God returns to earth, and the announcement of a Savior—Christ the Lord—shakes the darkness of the human condition.

We explore why God chose shepherds, why His glory broke into obscurity, and why the birth of Jesus is described in creation language. This episode traces the Old Testament threads Luke deliberately pulls: creation light, the prophetic cry for God to shine again, the return of glory, and the long-awaited arrival of divine peace. You will hear how Scripture frames the incarnation not as sentiment but as seismic disruption.

We unpack three core truths:

1. Joy erupts where God interrupts your darkness.

2. Joy deepens when you see Jesus clearly—Savior, Christ, and Lord.

3. Joy matures where God’s glory meets God’s peace.

This episode calls us not just to admire the Christmas story but to repent of the ways we have domesticated it. Joy is not an emotion for holiday weekends; it is the inevitable result when God breaks into human history and into the human heart.

If you’re longing for real joy—not seasonal, not emotional, not fragile—but the kind of joy that comes from divine interruption, revelation, and renewal, this message will reset your entire way of seeing Christ and seeing Christmas.

The question this episode presses is simple:

Will you allow the God who shattered the night sky for shepherds to interrupt your life, expose your darkness, reveal His Son, and lead you into unbreakable joy?

In this episode, we explore one of the most defining moments in the Gospels—when Jesus interrupted the ordinary workday of four fishermen and issued a call that demanded repentance, surrender, and a completely new direction. Matthew, Mark, and Luke all tell the story, but each reveals a different layer of Jesus’ call: the command, the promise, the miracle, and the heart-level response.

Matthew and Mark give us the clean invitation: “Follow Me.”

Luke gives us the collapse, the awe, and the repentance: “Go away from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.”

This episode breaks open the full pattern of calling:

Jesus steps into your ordinary.

Jesus reveals who He really is.

Jesus calls for repentance, release, and reorientation.

Jesus forms you into who you could never become on your own.

We unpack the depth of the Greek word akoloutheo, why Jesus calls us to attach our whole lives to His steps, and how “I will make you” is a promise of formation, not pressure. We explore why Peter’s first move was not celebration but repentance, and how true calling always requires letting go of nets, stories, and identities we’ve carried too long.

You’ll hear how God uses the workplace, not the synagogue, to initiate destiny; why most of God’s greatest callings begin in the grind of the everyday; and why following Jesus immediately demands courage, direction, and obedience.

If you’re ready to understand what it really means to be “locked-in” with Jesus—locked-in direction, identity, purpose, obedience, and courage—this episode will speak directly to your heart.

The question this episode leaves you with is simple but life-altering:

What net is still in your hands, and what is Jesus calling you to leave behind so you can step into the deep water with Him?

All it takes is one spark in the right house.

When Jesus walked into His hometown synagogue in Nazareth, no one expected revival to break out. They thought they already knew Him, the carpenter’s son, the local boy. But that day, He opened the scroll of Isaiah 61, read the words of promise, and declared, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”

That “today” set the house on fire.

This teaching dives into Jesus’ manifesto moment, the day He announced His mission to bring freedom, healing, and divine reset to a world bound by religion and routine. It’s about what happens when heaven collides with the ordinary, when the Spirit of the Lord fills familiar spaces and turns them into furnaces of transformation.

You’ll discover:

• Why the fire of the Spirit still falls on surrendered hearts, not perfect houses.

• How oil and fire work together, the anointing fuels what God ignites.

• The difference between religion that quotes the Word and revival that carries it.

• What it means to live in a kairos collision, when God’s timing interrupts your routine.

• Why rejection in Nazareth didn’t extinguish the flame, it only spread it.

Jesus didn’t come to make you comfortable; He came to make you combustible.

The same Spirit that anointed Him now rests on you, to preach good news, set captives free, and turn your ordinary house into a holy fire.

This is not destruction. This is ignition.

When Jesus drops the match, everything that’s dry, dull, and dormant bursts into holy flame.

What do you do when you’ve prayed… and nothing’s changed? When heaven feels silent, the pain is real, and all you have left is a word from Jesus?

In John 4, a royal official with power, money, and influence faces the one thing he can’t control, his dying child. Desperation drives him 20 miles uphill to find Jesus. And in one sentence, “Go; your son lives,” Jesus teaches him, and us, what faith really looks like when you’re standing between pain and promise.

This is the story of the Holy Gap: the sacred space between what God said and what you see. It’s where faith must walk before it ever sees. It’s where obedience becomes your worship, and waiting becomes your witness.

In this teaching, you’ll discover:

• How pain becomes the doorway that brings you to Jesus.
• Why faith matures in the hallway between the Word and the wonder.
• What it means to believe before you see, and how obedience activates the unseen miracle.
• The difference between crisis faith, confident faith, and contagious faith.
• How to walk through your own “Cana to Capernaum”, trusting the Word while waiting for the breakthrough.

Faith isn’t pretending the pain doesn’t hurt, it’s trusting that His Word still holds. Because when Jesus speaks, the miracle is already in motion.

Come learn how to walk, worship, and wait well in the Holy Gap, between “Go” and “It is done.”
