What if your most ordinary moments are actually how you challenge the system and reclaim your humanity?

Welcome to Crosscreek Community Church’s Podcast channel! Located in the Pacific Northwest, Crosscreek Community Church offers a welcoming online church community for those on a journey to discover their meaning in life, explore their doubts, ask questions, and discover more about God, Jesus, Christianity, the Bible, and more.

Our lives and what we do with them matter.
The System tells us if we don’t fight to matter more… we don’t really matter at all.
Resistance begins in our relationships.
A life of submission destroys the System from the inside out.
Every member of the family plays a role in resisting the System.
Families resist the System by submitting to each other.
Mother Teresa: “If you want to change the world, go home and love your family.”
In the Jesus Way, work becomes worship.
Holy Spirit-empowered submission is the only kind of power that transforms the world instead of adding to its pain.
It’s in serving others that we finally discover who we really are
Invitation:
Ask the Holy Spirit to fill and guide you daily
Commit to submit: Use whatever influence you have to resist the System by submitting to others.
Discussion Questions:
- What stood out to, bothered, inspired, or confused you in this week’s message?
- What do you think is the difference between submission and being a doormat? How can you tell the difference in your own relationships?
- Read Ephesians 6:4. In your experience, what are some ways parents accidentally provoke their kids? OR Read Ephesians 6:5-8. How do you typically view your job? What changes when you begin to see your work as worship?
- What would it look like for you to submit in your job, family, or friendships this week—without losing your voice or value
- How can your group pray with you this week?
