WEEK 12 | LIVE THE NEW LIFE

When Christ changes us, He makes us new. Just like someone who commits to a new lifestyle after losing weight, believers in Jesus can’t keep living the old way—we’ve been transformed by the Spirit of God. In this message, Pastor Ryan Rice teaches how living the new life in Christ impacts our truthfulness, our anger, our work, our words, and our relationships.

Main Truth:

The heart made new in Christ must walk in a new way of life—reflecting God’s character in everything we do.

What This Looks Like:

✅ We put off lying and live in the truth.

✅ We deal with anger quickly and pursue peace.

✅ We stop stealing and instead live with integrity and generosity.

✅ We use our words to build others up, not tear them down.

✅ We refuse bitterness and instead live with kindness, compassion, and forgiveness.

Takeaway: A Christian life should reflect Jesus in our actions, words, and relationships. Filled with the Holy Spirit, we don’t live for ourselves but for the glory of God, building up His church and blessing the world.
