Jesus instructed us to stand firm in our calling, but have you ever wondered what your "calling in life" actually is? Does it feel like other people know their purpose while your left scratching your head trying to figure things out? As a follower of Jesus, these things matter, but if you don't know your calling you won't be able to stand firm in it.In this week's message from Meta Church, Pastor Ricky Ortiz walks us through the process to discovering your calling in life and knowing how to stand firm in against all opposition.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

Finding Your Calling

Many of us do our best to follow Jesus and live like Him in our world. But there's one area of God's nature that we don't always consider, yet if we lived like God in this area we'd be able to stand firm against whatever comes our way.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

Be Like Me

We all want to feel strong and immovable in our lives and in our faith. But in certain seasons, we find ourselves being swayed – and even overcome – by our circumstances and our emotions. This isn't where we want to be, nor is it who we are supposed to be. In fact, we're called to "stand firm" in the midst of difficulty, uncertainty, and attack.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

Stand Firm

So much of life is learning to navigate disappointment; but how do you handle disappointment when it's experienced and found in the person who is supposed to be your hope: Jesus?This is the challenge and experience Pastor Krista Ortiz navigates in this week's message as she shares what she's been learning in her relationship with Jesus.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

When Following Jesus Leads To Disappointment | Krista Ortiz

When your future is unclear or uncertain, it's easy to feel discouraged or disheartened and feel like God is absent. And when you feel like God is absent, it's easy to forget all of the important things He's done, said, and revealed in your life.That's why we're instructed throughout all of Scripture to "remember" – we're told to remember all that God has done in the past, who He's called us to be, and He reminds us that He's not forgotten about us.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

Don't You Forget

Your relationship with Jesus was never meant to be stagnant or idle. In fact, it's supposed to be exact opposite! Through the Holy Spirit in you, God wants to continue to lead you, shape you, and help you grow into the person and child of God He envisioned from the beginning.In this vulnerable and candid, 3-week series, Pastors Ricky and Krista will offer some of the things they've been learning in their relationship with God recently as a means of encouraging and inspiring you to reflect on what you're hearing and learning from God as well.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

I Was Wrong

Despite the difficulties and challenges we've faced, God is calling each of us into something greater and more...radical! But He's not just calling us into something radical, He has actually called us to be a "radical church"!In this message from Freedom Church's Pastor Chris Cooke, he shares with us 5 pursuits of a radical church.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

5 Pursuits of a Radical Church

There comes a time when each person must decide what they will turn from and what they will turn to. These steps aren't always easy, but they're absolutely essential to experience the abundance and fruitfulness of God in our lives.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

Turning Point | Karin Cooke

Why does following the way of Jesus actually matter? What difference does it make? And why is it so vital for Christians to live and be like Christ? The answer to those questions is what we'll be learning about in this week's message from Meta Church!Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

This Is Why

In the days following Jesus' life, the first followers of Jesus lived lives that were so remarkably different than the cultural norm that the way of Jesus became irresistible. So what made this way so different? Why did it stand out? And what can we learn from them?Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

What's Different?

In this week's message from Meta Church, Ricky Ortiz talks about the necessity of "obedience" in following the way of Jesus. Jesus gave instructions in Matt. 28:20 that His disciples are to be obedient to what He says and if we desire to become like Christ then it's important we listen to what He says.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

Simon Says

We live in a world where it's so easy to focus on our selves... We become, and even celebrate, being self-serving, self-preserving, and self-seeking.But when it comes to following the way of Jesus, none of those aspects of "self" were things Jesus did nor were they things He said we should aspire toward. Instead, Jesus made it clear that it shouldn't be ourselves, but rather how we love, serve, and care for others. In Jesus' words, "It's not about me."

INAM | Pastor Krista Ortiz

We live in a world full of distractions, messages, and hurriedness – all working together to keep us from following the way of Jesus and becoming more like Him. So how do we combat the busyness and the noise?Today's message from Meta Church answers that question precisely and introduces us to a practice we can apply to become more like Christ.Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

Be Still

Every relationship succeeds or falls apart based on the parameters that define the relationship. In order for the relationship to succeed, both parties have to mutually agree and commit to those expectations. And the same is true for any type of Community. When people become part of a community, they are committing to a set of values and ideals that are shared by the group as a whole. And in a church community, it's this shared commitment that has the potential to produce significant life transformation and help us all become more like Christ!Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.

Few things are more disappointing or shameful than finding out someone or something is a fake. But if we're not careful as Christians, our worship can become as insincere or fake as anything else. We might sing songs or raise our voices in prayer, but if there is not substance in worship then we are simply pretending to be something more than we actually are. Connect with Meta Church online, on Instagram, or on Facebook. To donate to Meta Church click here.
