Summary

What if the season you're in isn’t just hard—but spiritual? This week’s message explores how we often default to control, manipulation, and force when things feel out of hand, but God invites us to a different way. Through worship and wisdom, we learn to surrender rather than strive—and that shift can change everything. Join us as we talk about what it really means to fight spiritual battles with spiritual weapons. Discussion Questions: 1. Have you ever tried to take control of a situation instead of trusting God? What would it look like to let go and worship instead? 2. What’s a recent moment where a single thought—good or bad—shaped your perspective or actions? How can you invite God’s wisdom into your thoughts? SUBSCRIBE TODAY for Weekly Service messages, Daily Guided Prayers, & more!

0:00.0	Hey, hey, welcome to the church home podcast with Judah Smith. My amazing husband, my name is Chelsea,
0:05.3	and he is about to give you an incredible message, and I know we are going to hear about Jesus and
0:10.6	his love for you. And if there's anything we can do as a church home community, we would love to
0:15.7	serve you. You can come to churchhome.org slash pastor chat, and we would love to have a
0:20.5	conversation with you and just meet
0:22.0	you exactly where you are. Enjoy the message. We are spending the month of August, welcome by the way,
0:29.4	to church home. We're spending the month of August around this title. What do you actually do
0:34.9	when the moment, chapter or season you're in, it is spiritual?
0:39.5	Like, in my world, over-spiritualizing everything seems to run rampant, right?
0:47.6	But as a result, sometimes we're not aware when things actually are spiritual.
0:58.2	So last month, I was having a moment and I was kind of going through some relational challenge and was starting to wonder what is going on. And it was this
1:04.2	portion of scripture that came to my mind. And I felt led and guided by God. Like this is what I want you to do because the chapter you're in is spiritual.
1:17.5	Last week, we talked about a different standard.
1:22.2	And I urge you, there's a lot in that message for sure.
1:25.7	But I urge you and remind you that the different standard that we are so clearly given can be seen through Jesus at the Sermon on the Mountain in the Gospels where instead of power and ego and pride, he promotes this standard of gentleness and meekness.
1:53.4	And it's very contrary to what you feel like doing when you feel like you're in a challenging,
1:59.6	difficult season. And that leads us to this week
2:03.3	where clearly last week we're talking about we we have different standards. This week we're talking
2:08.8	about we also have different weapons. We have different weapons. Now this leads us to the portion of
