Victory Church: Paul Daugherty Victory Church

In episode 7 of the Behind the Scenes of our Best Days Podcast, John and Arvin discuss the importance of social awareness when working behind the scenes in ministry contexts. Together, they dive into events in church history that helped create the modern church environment and what each individual can do to take ownership of their faith instead of relying on the church to grow them spiritually. 

Looking at “The Man in the Mirror” is a metaphor for believers to evaluate their individual heart and habits. The life transformation you encounter testifies of God’s divine grace. With the Holy Spirit inside of us, we are called to spread His love in action and in words to those around us. 
Don’t allow the enemy to distract you from cleaning out the old and making room for what God wants to do. You have a purpose on the other side of obeying God’s Word that will glorify the Kingdom of God!

John and Arvin dive into the importance of boundaries as we go about stewarding God-given burdens.

The Book of James gives practical wisdom on how followers of Christ can produce long-suffering through endurance. Without tests, our spiritual development remains stagnant and weak. Although we will all face difficulties, we must hold tightly to the promises of God, persevering through trials to gain joy, patience, maturity, character, and faith.
Whether you are entering or exiting a trial, the Lord holds a plan to strengthen you for the glory of His Kingdom. The reward for persevering is often an opportunity to share your testimony with someone walking through a hard time. There is purpose in your pain!
