What if you could know, without a doubt, that you have eternal life? In this episode, we explore the closing words of 1 John and wrestle with questions around assurance, doubt, and what it means to truly trust God. We talk about the difference between hoping you’re saved and knowing you are, how to discern whether doubt is leading to growth or fear, and what it looks like to pray according to God’s will—even when outcomes don’t match our expectations. Along the way, we tackle the challenging idea of “sin leading to death,” consider how the world subtly shapes our thinking, and reflect on how Jesus gives us understanding to stay grounded in truth—ending with John’s final challenge to keep ourselves from idols.
We all love the encouragement we get from church on Sundays, but what about the other six days of the week? We have just the podcast for you! Join our pastors from Vaughn Forest Church as we dive further into our Sunday message series and discuss life outside the four walls of the church building the other six days of the week.
