This week, Pastor Adam challenges us to consider who we're really living for, and how that audience shapes the way we live, serve, and pray.
Who's your audience?
Every decision we make is influenced by who we're trying to please. In this message from Matthew 6, Pastor Nick challenges us with a powerful question: Are we living for the approval of people or for the approval of God?
As Jesus begins teaching through the Sermon on the Mount, He reveals that the audience we're most aware of shapes our behavior, our motives, and even our relationship with Him. Whether it's our generosity, our prayer life, or our everyday choices, God invites us to stop chasing temporary applause and begin living for an audience of One.
This message also explores why secret obedience matters, how prayer builds trust instead of simply informing God, and what it looks like to truly believe that God is all-knowing, all-powerful, and always present.
If you've ever struggled with comparison, people-pleasing, or wondering if God sees your faithfulness, this message will encourage and challenge you to trust your Heavenly Father more deeply.
In this message you'll discover:
Why your audience shapes your behavior.
The difference between temporary rewards and eternal rewards.
How secret obedience builds confidence in God.
Why prayer is about trust, not information.
What changes when you truly live for an audience of One.
Scripture: Matthew 6:1-8
