Message by Chris Brown on January 17, 2026. Here is a riddle: Two people walk out of the same church. One was bored to death while the other felt like God spoke directly to them. Why? Why is it that church seems to work for some and not for others, or why does God seem to speak to only a few and not anyone else? Jesus reveals this secret today in a way that we can all understand.

From Series: "Matthew: The Art Of Surrender"

As we have laid the foundation of our faith, we must now ask ourselves: how do we live it out? Matthew will continually and consistently point us to Jesus as the Messiah and King. If Jesus truly is who He claims to be, how should that shape our lives? The answer lies in a life fully surrendered to Him. In this series, "The Art Of Surrender - The Book Of Matthew," we will explore how submitting to the powerful truth of Jesus’ identity can transform the way we live.
