Living Life Abundantly
Sunday, 19 April, 2026
I had a bit of a moment a few weeks ago. I went through the Bible and looked up every single time the word “sin” shows up… and what I found honestly surprised me.Not in a good or bad way – just… not what I was taught.I didn’t find the clean, clear list of do’s and don’ts I grew up with. I didn’t find Jesus obsessing over defining sin or making sure people avoided it at all costs. What I did find—especially in the tradition I was handed – was a whole lot of fear. Fear of messing up. Fear of getting it wrong. Fear of hell.And I can’t help but wonder… is fear really the point?Because when Jesus talks about why he came, he says it’s about life – full, abundant life. And that doesn’t sound like fear to me.So this week, we’re going to wade into some deep water. Not to tear anything down—but to see what might be underneath all that fear. To ask what our spiritual lives could actually look like if fear wasn’t running the show.If you’ve ever felt that tension… or quietly wondered if there’s more to this than just getting it right… this one might be for you.Join us at the Spiritual Gym this week. Let’s explore what it could look like to actually live—abundantly.Donate to Friends ChurchTo donate to this podcast and support the making of more of these please visit https://friendschurch.ca/podcast
