About the Sermon

Addiction doesn’t always look like rock bottom. Sometimes it looks like high-functioning survival—secret habits, emotional crutches, and quiet dependencies that no one else sees. In this message from Ben Davis Christian Church, discover how the Apostle Paul’s words in Romans 6 speak directly into the battle so many of us face. Whether it’s alcohol, food, screens, or stress shopping, Jesus offers real freedom—not just forgiveness. If you’re tired of managing pain with temporary fixes, The Struggle Is Real will show you how to walk toward honesty, healing, and daily surrender. Because the struggle is real—but so is the Savior.

Come and See

Those were Jesus’ words—simple, unpolished, and quietly powerful. Not an argument. Not a lecture. Just an invitation.

In this message, we walk through the opening scenes of John’s Gospel and watch how faith actually begins for real people—believers, seekers, and skeptics alike. John the Baptist points. Curious people follow. Questions get asked. Lives start to change. And nobody has it all figured out yet.

This sermon is for the person who’s curious but cautious. The one who believes but feels stuck. The skeptic who’s tired of debates and wants something real. It’s about proximity before certainty, curiosity before clarity, and why you don’t have to have all the answers to take your next step toward Jesus.

You can’t argue someone into faith—but you can invite them to come and see.

If you’ve got a “one” in your life… this message is for you.

Look to the Lamb

Pastor Josue encourages us to look to the Lamb during the holiday season.
