Revolution Resistance

Campus Pastor Josh Hamm shows us that simply seeing Jesus’ work is not enough—we must truly understand it and trust in His sufficiency rather than focus on our immediate problems. We learn to move from spiritual blindness to clear sight as Jesus continues to shape our hearts and lead us to follow Him.

Campus Pastor Josh Hamm teaches that we do not receive Jesus’ grace based on who we are or our background, but by how we humbly respond to Him with faith and persistence. He shows us that our limitations do not disqualify us, but a resistant heart can keep us from experiencing Jesus, who cares for us personally and invites us to trust Him fully.

Founding Pastor Rick Duncan teaches that Jesus sometimes allows storms in believers’ lives to strengthen their faith, reminding them that Jesus sees their struggle, prays for them, and reveals His power even in hardship. He encourages listeners to trust Jesus during difficult seasons, remember God’s past faithfulness, and allow trials to soften their hearts and deepen their devotion.

Campus Pastor Josh Hamm teaches us that true rest is not escape from interruption but alignment with Jesus in the middle of need, as His compassion moves us to see, feel, and act. We learn that He takes what little we offer, uses us to bring His provision, and satisfies us as the Bread of Life.

Campus Pastor Joshua Hamm teaches that Jesus sends us out as disciples to go authentically, living the message with a team, in His power, and in faith-filled dependence that keeps us focused and grateful wherever we are welcomed. We also go assuredly, because repentance matters, faithfulness prepares the way for others, and suffering is never wasted when we value Jesus above comfort and measure our lives by obedient faithfulness instead of visible success.

Campus Pastor Joshua Hamm teaches that we can live close to Jesus yet still miss Him if unbelief hides behind amazement, familiarity, or offense, so we respond with real faith that turns to Him in prayer and obedience. We see that unbelief can limit what we experience of His work, but it never stops His kingdom from moving forward, so we ask Him to break up our unbelieving patterns and keep sending us with His gospel.

Campus Pastor Josh Hamm teaches that we can bring our desperation to Jesus, because He walks with us, makes us whole, and calls us to keep believing when the delay hurts and the news gets worse. We see that His power reaches past shame, sickness, and even death, so we can stop hiding, release our fear, and trust Him to carry us through to the end.

This week Campus Pastor Josh Hamm brings us into Mark 5 and asks whether the mission of Jesus is worth the risk as we face resistance in advancing the gospel. We see that it is worth it because Jesus is all-powerful, all-restoring, and all-merciful, and He calls us to move past fear and preference to simply share what He has done in our lives.
