Pastor Scott Bland, Godspeak’s youth pastor, delivered a passionate sermon on God’s will for believers: sanctification. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians, he emphasized that sanctification is not optional but a divine command to be set apart, transformed into Christ’s image through the Holy Spirit’s power. With humor and relatability, Bland shared personal anecdotes, like his wife’s medicinal honey remedy, and cultural references, such as neighborhood Halloween displays, to illustrate the battle against worldly conformity. He urged the congregation to rejoice always, pray ceaselessly, and give thanks in all circumstances, aligning with Godspeak’s anchored reading program and mission to live biblically in a dark world. The closing prayer called for surrender, trusting God’s faithful promise to complete His sanctifying work.
