Drift doesn’t happen overnight—it starts small, almost unnoticeable, and before we know it, we can find ourselves far from God. The good news is that He has given us the anchor we need to stay steady and strong in Him.
Key Points from this message:
-
Drift Begins with Neglect — We don’t just wake up and decide to abandon God. Neglect is a seed, and drift is the fruit that grows from it (Hebrews 2:3).
-
Drift is Deceptive and Subtle — Sin rarely comes with flashing lights. Satan works to distort our vision of God, like a blindfold blocking light (Proverbs 14:12; 2 Corinthians 4:3-4). Sin will always take you further than you want to go, keep you longer than you want to stay, and cost you more than you want to pay.
-
Drift Demands Constant Course Correction — Every day we need to examine our hearts and adjust. Course correction isn’t shameful—it’s necessary (Lamentations 3:40).
-
Staying Anchored Keeps Us from Drifting — We must develop spiritual habits that keep us grounded and anchored in Christ (Hebrews 10:19).
Drift may be subtle, but it’s not unstoppable. When we stay anchored in Jesus, we can stand firm no matter what comes our way.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
