Episode Summary
In this sermon preached at New Life Church Greenbrier (Dec. 28, 2025), Coach Alex flips a familiar verse on its head: the gates of hell aren’t attacking the Church—they’re defending. Jesus’ promise isn’t that we’ll merely “hold on” until the end; it’s that the Church advances and hell can’t stop it.Coach Alex makes it practical: if you’ve spent a year waking up on defense—tired, in pain, stuck, reactive—there’s a reason.

The enemy targets the individual body, then the family, then the community. But when your “want to,” your “able to,” your relationships, coaching, rewards, and environment align toward God, you stop fighting alone.
