This season's finale episode focuses on what it looks like to be perfect, as our heavenly Father is perfect (Matthew 5:48). The culture's perspective of perfection is often peddled as an unattainable trend that shifts with each generation. It's an unstable model that can, unfortunately, creep into our perspective of God, the Body of Christ, and cause us to stumble. AC breaks down what true and lasting perfection tangibly looks like, how to obtain it, and walk in unashamedly!

When it comes to building strong families, we can not neglect to prioritize and nurture God-honoring relationships. It begins in the home first with marriage and family. Then, as the Lord sends us like-minded people, we get to encourage and be refreshed by the hearts that share our passion for the Kingdom work.

When Truth was put on trial in John chapter 18, a cross stood between politics and the religious leaders. When sociopolitical wars inevitably circulate in culture, there will always be a cross between what God says is right in Scripture and what sinful man will say. AC continues the conversation on kings in the Old Testament, focusing on who the Lord brought into a king's life to help him or had to sift out of a king's life for the same purpose, to help him.

Our lives in Christ, our marriages, and our families are all living, walking testimonies to how the Spirit of God is at work within us, changing us from the inside out. The dead do not testify. Jesus said, I am the resurrection and the life. When He called Lazarus out of the grave (John 11), a stone was rolled away, and Lazarus walked out of the grave wearing graveclothes; he lived! Jesus demonstrated His power over death by raising a dead man to life. Best believe, Lazarus was changed! He had to remove those graveclothes, wash, change, and serve as a living, walking testimony to the power of Christ.

A life spent gratifying and pacifying the flesh through carnal want and pleasure is the fast life that the world and culture peddle to consumers to hurry up and buy daily. The fast life is a life spent living for the flesh or walking in the Spirit. Jesus said to his disciples, If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me (Matthew 16:24). The lie of instant gratification is repackaged and sold in every generation. We, as Christians, err when we do not know the Scriptures or the power of God (Matthew 22:29) to move in our life, marriage, and family.
