July 12th - Generations | Marked by the Kingdom by Rick White

Join us in this episode as Rick shares a powerful and practical message on kingdom culture, discipleship, and what it means to be formed as a follower of Jesus. Through the book of Revelation, Rick unpacks the clash between the kingdom of God and the kingdoms of this world. From John's declaration of the One "who is, who was, and who is to come," to the contrast between the mark of the beast and the people marked by the Lamb, this message reminds us that Christianity is not just private belief—it is allegiance to a different kingdom and a different way of life. You'll hear why kingdoms always carry culture, why salvation is more than a moment, and why following Jesus requires both faith and obedience. Rick also shares personal stories of spiritual mentors who helped shape his life, showing how discipleship often happens through intentional relationships, honest questions, correction, accountability, and shared life. This message will encourage you to: - Recognize what kingdom and culture are forming your life.   - Understand that following Jesus means both faith in Him and obedience to His commands.   - Receive spiritual legacy through the family of God, even if you did not grow up with it.   - Invite mentors, spiritual mothers and fathers, and trusted voices into your life.   - Look around and intentionally invest in the people God has already placed in front of you.   - Live as someone marked by the Lamb and formed by the culture of heaven.
