Who Are They?
In this message, Ed Young closes the series by teaching that the people we surround ourselves with have serious sway over our lives, contrasting Samson's ruin among the wrong "they" with Nehemiah's strength among the right "they," and offering six questions to discern whether the people closest to us are pointing us toward God or away from Him.
God Ops
In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young teaches that there is no opportunity without opposition, tracing Nehemiah's preparation, simplification, and determination as the wall-building project escalates from mockery to an outright plot to attack, and calls believers to stay on the wall rather than come down to meet their critics on their own terms.
The Target
In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young opens the series by teaching that everyone is an influencer, using Nehemiah's story to show that leaders master the task of "the ask"—questioning others and questioning God—and that as we pursue the target God has given us, we will always face opposition, since envy begins where our influence ends.
The Finest Hour
In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young teaches that weekly corporate worship is the believer’s “finest hour,” an appointment with God that should be approached with preparation and participation. He urges listeners to come prayed up, rested up, dressed up, linked up, and fessed up, and to engage worship through singing, generosity, and active response to God’s presence and grace.
Everyone Worships
In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young teaches that worship is intrinsic to every person, but that it must be directed toward God as our primary passion rather than toward sports, success, self, or other distractions. He argues that true worship is a whole-life response to God’s identity and activity, expressed in both praise and service, and calls listeners to bow the knee to Jesus now in surrender and obedience.
