What does it really mean to be great?
In this thought-provoking episode of The War Rooms, David and Emma Stark explore a challenging question: Are we becoming giants in Babylon while remaining small in the Kingdom?
As the nations wrestle with political instability, cultural division, and a growing hunger for answers, the Church faces a defining moment. Is God calling His people to build influence the world's way, or to embody a completely different Kingdom?
Together, David and Emma unpack:
* Why the world is more open to the voice of God than ever before.
* The difference between Babylon's definition of greatness and Heaven's.
* How cynicism has become one of the greatest threats to the Church.
* The "hermeneutic of suspicion" versus the "hermeneutic of charity."
* Why gratitude is the antidote to criticism and hopelessness.
* How believers can become true giants in the Kingdom of God.
This honest conversation will challenge the way you see leadership, influence, relationships and even your own heart. If you've found yourself frustrated with the state of the world, the Church, or culture, this episode offers a Kingdom perspective that calls us back to the heart of Jesus.
"Those in the Kingdom love people, use things and worship God. Babylon loves things, uses people and worships itself."
Watch until the end and ask yourself:
Which Kingdom am I building?
