    Do Not Be Conformed | Romans 12:1–2 | Pastor Juan Espino

    Do Not Be Conformed | Romans 12:1–2 | Pastor Juan Espino Following Christ is more than believing in Him—it is a decision to leave the old life behind and allow God to transform the way we think and live. In this message, “Do Not Be Conformed,” Pastor Juan Espino challenges us with the words of Joshua: “Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve.” We can allow the traditions of our past to shape us, conform to the culture around us, or make the deliberate decision to say, “As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” Romans 12 calls us not to conform to the pattern of this world, but to be transformed through the renewing of our minds. This transformation requires surrender—offering ourselves to God as a living sacrifice and allowing the Holy Spirit and the Word of God to change us from the inside out. The Christian life is not simply about leaving something behind. It is about putting on the new life Christ has given us.In Christ, the old has gone and the new has come. And as we walk in this new life, we begin to discover for ourselves that God's will truly is good, pleasing, and perfect.What initially feels like sacrifice becomes an opportunity to experience the goodness of God. As Psalm 34:8 declares: “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” 🎙️ Join Pastor Juan Espino for this message and be challenged to make the decision: Do not be conformed. Be transformed. Offer your life to God, walk in the new life He has given you, and discover that His ways are truly good.

    Shortcuts | Isaiah 8–9 |

    Shortcuts | Isaiah 8–9 | Pastor Maritza Rubiano We live in a world that wants everything quickly. Quick answers, quick solutions, and quick relief from pain. But what happens when the shortcuts we choose take us further away from God? In this powerful message, “Shortcuts,” Pastor Maritza Rubiano takes us through Isaiah 8 and 9 and the story of the people of Judah. Faced with fear and uncertainty, their king rejected God’s protection and chose what seemed like a faster, more visible solution. But that shortcut ultimately led the people into greater fear, confusion, weariness, and spiritual darkness. We can make the same mistake today. When life becomes difficult, we may look for something—or someone—to numb our pain, satisfy our desires, or give us an immediate answer. Yet human shortcuts can never satisfy the deepest needs of our hearts. But darkness does not have the final word. Isaiah declares: “The people who walk in darkness will see a great light.” God’s answer was not another shortcut. God’s answer was Jesus. When you are lost and confused, He is your Wonderful Counselor. When the battle seems too great, He is your Mighty God. When you feel abandoned and alone, He is your Everlasting Father. When your heart is overwhelmed by anxiety, guilt, or chaos, He is your Prince of Peace. God never answered the darkness of this world with a shortcut. He answered it by sending His Son. 🎙️ Join Pastor Maritza Rubiano for this challenging and hope-filled message and discover why, when everything else fails, Jesus Christ is enough. He is our fullness, our hope, and our answer.

    God still has a plan /Pastor Janina Espino

    God Still Has a Plan | Jonah 2 What do you do when your own decisions have led you to a place of darkness, failure, or uncertainty? The story of Jonah reminds us that even in our most difficult moments, God is not finished with us. From the belly of the great fish, Jonah cried out to the Lord. What appeared to be the end of his story became the very place where God began transforming his heart. There, Jonah remembered who God was, recognized what had drawn him away from Him, and moved from despair to worship, declaring in faith: “Salvation comes from the Lord.” In this message, “God Still Has a Plan,” we discover three powerful truths: • Even in your disaster, you can cry out to the Lord. • Your trial can become the place of your transformation. • Your present does not determine your future—God still has a plan. Jonah had disobeyed, run away, and struggled against the will of God, but the grace of the Lord continued to pursue him. God restored him, gave him another opportunity, and still used his life to accomplish His purpose. Perhaps you are walking through a season that seems to define your future. But your present circumstances do not have the final word. God’s grace can restore you, transform you, and lead you back into the purpose for which He has called you. As Romans 8:28 reminds us: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”  Listen to this message and be reminded: God is still working, God still restores, and God still has a plan for your life.

    Obedience that brings deliverance

    🎙️ English Podcast Description Obedience that brings deliverance | Pastor Juan Espino Have you ever wondered why certain battles seem to repeat themselves, or why you feel trapped in cycles you can't seem to break? The story of Gideon reveals that before God brought victory over the Midianites, He first called Gideon to tear down the idols that had taken His place. True freedom did not begin on the battlefield—it began at the altar. In this powerful message, Pastor Juan Espino takes us through Judges 6–7 to discover how God calls ordinary people to become instruments of deliverance through faith and obedience. In this message you'll discover: How idolatry opens the door to spiritual oppression. Why God raises ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary purposes. The hidden idols that often go unnoticed in our hearts. Why repentance requires action, not just emotion. How obedience positions us to experience God's supernatural victory. Why God's strength is greater than every fear, weakness, and impossible situation. The same God who called Gideon is still calling men and women today to stand in faith, remove every idol, and trust Him for victory. Freedom begins when God becomes first again. If you're longing to experience God's power, restoration, and deliverance in your life or your family, this message will challenge you to examine your heart, surrender every idol, and believe that God still does the impossible for those who obey Him. Listen today and discover how removing the idols from your life opens the door for God to break oppression and lead you into His victory.
