Let the Spirit Drive in '25 (North OC)

In this New Year's sermon, Marcel Hall from the OC Church of Christ encourages the congregation to let the Holy Spirit guide them throughout 2025. He reflects on past slogans, thanks those who served the church, discusses New Year's resolutions, and introduces the new slogan 'Let the Spirit Drive in '25'. Using Galatians 5:13-25, he explains the importance of living by the Spirit, addressing sin, and staying in step with the Holy Spirit. He uses a remote control car analogy to illustrate how our lives can be directed more effectively by the Spirit. The sermon concludes with a call to practical action, prayer, and a reminder of the blessings of following God's will, even through hard times.
