Are you busy—but not spiritually full?

In this powerful sermon, Matthew Balentine invites us to examine our hearts and ask the simple but life-changing question: Is there room for God in my life?

Drawing from Luke 1 and Mary’s unexpected calling, this message explores what it truly means to be available to God—even when life feels overcrowded, overwhelming, and out of control. Through practical insights and heartfelt challenge, Matthew reminds us that:

  • God chooses availability over ability

  • His interruptions carry greater purpose

  • Fear says “I can’t”, but faith says “I am the Lord’s servant”

  • The Holy Spirit fills whatever space we give Him

  • Spiritual renewal begins not with the church as a whole—but with you

If you’re longing for a deeper relationship with God or sensing that He is preparing you for “what’s next,” this message will encourage, confront, and inspire you to start making room for Him today.

✨ Key Scripture: Luke 1:26–38

✨ Theme: Preparing your heart for God’s next work
