The Lord is Near

In this message from the Shine series, Brock walks through Philippians 4:1–7, confronting two major sources of division: a divided church and a divided heart. Drawing from Paul’s plea for unity between Euodia and Syntyche and his command to reject anxiety, the sermon reminds listeners of the power of reconciliation, shared mission, and the steadying presence of Christ. With clarity and compassion, it highlights how the Lord’s nearness offers peace, hope, truth, and freedom — enough to pull us out of conflict and into mission. When we truly believe the Lord is at hand, we stop fighting each other and start fighting for what matters most.
