Pastor Tim delivers a powerful message about spiritual growth and flourishing in Christ for the new year. Using the imagery of palm trees and cedars of Lebanon from Psalm 92, he illustrates what the life of a righteous believer should look like—resilient, deeply rooted, fruitful, and victorious. The sermon emphasizes that growth happens when believers not only agree with God's Word in faith but also take action through discipleship. Pastor Johnson challenges the congregation to look beyond their current circumstances to see God's intended picture for their lives. He explains how Christ's righteousness makes believers rot-resistant like cedars, able to isolate wounds and heal through the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The message culminates with a practical six-month discipleship plan for the church, moving from theory to application, encouraging believers to engage, establish, equip, and empower others as they make disciples who make disciples.
