We live in a moment where love is celebrated, truth is contested, and identity feels fragile.

In this message from our Purple Church series, Pastor Léonce Crump teaches from Matthew 19:4–6 and Romans 5:8, showing how Jesus refuses false choices—and instead forms people who can live anchored, compassionate, and faithful lives.

This is not a political sermon. This is not a reactionary sermon.

It is a pastoral invitation to trust Jesus in a confusing world—and to discover an identity shaped by grace and grounded in truth.

If you’re searching, wrestling, or unsure where faith fits anymore—this message is for you.

What does it actually mean to live with a consistent Christian ethic?

In this message, we confront one of the most difficult—and necessary—conversations facing the Church today: how faith in Jesus shapes our convictions from the sanctity of life in the womb to the dignity of life at the margins.

A consistent Christian ethic refuses easy labels and partisan shortcuts. It is rooted in Scripture, shaped by the life of Jesus, and expressed through both conviction and compassion.

This message is not about political alignment—it’s about spiritual formation. Whether you are wrestling with questions of life, justice, responsibility, or mercy, this teaching invites you into a deeper, more faithful way of following Christ.

If this message challenges or encourages you, consider sharing it with someone who needs to hear it.
