In Week 2 of Hope for the World, we focused on reaching our nation through church planting. Pastor Ricky Harris taught from Acts 13:1–4. In this passage, the local church recognized the need to share the gospel beyond itself and sent out missionaries to do just that. In the same way, God has called every Jesus follower to share the gospel — and reaching the nations through church multiplication might be part of that calling. Whether it's starting a church or joining a church plant, God may be prompting you to take that step. Watch this sermon to learn more!

In this sermon, Pastor Scott Worthington preaches from Mark 15:1–15, where Jesus is delivered to Pilate, Barabbas is released, and Jesus is handed over to be crucified.   Barabbas was a wicked, guilty, and condemned man—yet the crowd chose to set him free and crucify Jesus, the innocent and righteous one, in his place. As followers of Jesus, we must recognize that Barabbas is a reflection of us. We were the guilty ones, and Jesus, the righteous one, became our substitute. That’s the good news of the gospel. May we take the time to sit and reflect upon what Jesus has done for us.   Watch this sermon to learn more!
