How Then Shall We Live

May 10, 2026    Matt Santen

This sermon challenges us to stop overcomplicating God’s will and focus on what He clearly wants for our lives: becoming more like Jesus. In 1 Thessalonians 4, Paul calls believers to live differently from the culture around them, especially when it comes to sexual purity and honoring God with their choices. The message reminds us that following Jesus means saying no to patterns of sin and learning to live in a way that reflects holiness, even when it goes against what society says is normal. At the same time, this isn’t about instant perfection. Sanctification is a lifelong process where God changes us little by little, helping us desire Him more and giving us the strength to grow.
