Strongholds: Breaking Free- What You Don’t Fight Will Take Over Your Life

In this Sunday's message, we explored the concept of strongholds—destructive patterns of thinking or behavior that are built on lies and heart-level attachments. These strongholds can trap us in cycles of dysfunction, comfort, and isolation, preventing us from experiencing the true freedom and joy that God intends for us. By understanding how these strongholds form and recognizing their impact on our lives, we can begin the journey to break free. This message emphasizes the importance of embracing discomfort, taking courageous action, and seeking authentic relationships to dismantle these barriers. Join us as we learn to leverage divine power and personal transformation to move towards a life of healing, purpose, and abundant joy.
