Revelation pulls back the curtain to show us the real battle—the clash between the way of the Dragon (power and control) and the way of the Lamb (sacrificial love)—and challenges us to decide which path we will follow.

Welcome to Crosscreek Community Church’s Podcast channel! Located in the Pacific Northwest, Crosscreek Community Church offers a welcoming online church community for those on a journey to discover their meaning in life, explore their doubts, ask questions, and discover more about God, Jesus, Christianity, the Bible, and more.

Main Ideas:
Many people fear that Xianity is under attack and fear makes us fight back
There is a real war between the forces of God and the forces of evil.
Satan’s goal is to bring chaos to the world and destroy God’s people.
Satan uses willing leaders and the systems of the world to carry out his plans.
Jesus Followers should always be ready to identify and disconnect from political powers that claim to be for or from God.
Jesus brings God’s rescue, salvation, and justice not by “winning” but by losing his life.
Jesus’ death shows the true meaning of power, judgment, and salvation.
The people of God participate in the revolution of God by following the way of the Lamb.
The Way of the Lamb is the only way to peace, justice, and ultimate victory.
Invitation:
Read: Philippians 2:3-11
Ask:
- What am I following or relying on that doesn’t match this picture?
- Am I more concerned about winning or following the way of the Lamb?
Discussion Questions:
- What stood out, bothered, inspired, or confused you in this week’s message?
- Who or what do you tend to treat as “enemies” in your life? What would “winning” against them look like to you?
- Read Philippians 2:3-11. What would it look like to live as a follower of the Lamb in your job, relationships, and daily interactions?
- What fears might hold us back from fully embracing the way of the Lamb?
- How can your group pray with you this week?
