In this week’s installment of Your Sacred Journey, Pastor Mike Stevens dives into the essence of godliness, defining it as true Christ-like living—not just outward actions, but genuine transformation from within. Using 2 Peter 1:3-7 and passages like Luke 6:43-45, Pastor Mike unpacks how the fruits of godliness flow from a vibrant relationship with God, much like love flows naturally in a healthy marriage. This isn't about checking boxes or “fake” godliness; it’s about nurturing the Spirit’s tree within us to bear fruit like compassion, humility, and grace.
If you’re feeling stuck or distant from true godliness, Pastor Mike encourages us to “fertilize” our faith by revisiting the basics: faith, goodness, knowledge, perseverance, and self-control. The journey starts with cultivating a deep, authentic connection with Christ—because godliness isn’t something we do; it’s who we become.
Scriptures referenced: 2 Peter 1:3-7, Luke 6:43-45, James 2:14-26
