"Faith That Divides"

Aug 17, 2025 • Alex Cain

In this powerful sermon from Luke 12:49–56, Alex Cain unpacks Jesus’ striking words about fire and division. Far from being comfortable, following Christ often stirs tension in our lives and relationships—but it is through this refining fire that God shapes true discipleship. With honesty and conviction, Alex challenges us to embrace the cost of faith, trust God’s Kingdom above all else, and live with courage in a divided world.

Scripture Reference: Luke 12:49–56

Key Themes: Faith, Division, Discipleship, Courage, Trust in God’s Kingdom
