Where does your allegiance truly lie? Lead Pastor Wade Woods challenges us as followers of Jesus, we are called to live by the truth of God's Word, even when it challenges the values and beliefs of the world around us.In this powerful message, we're challenged to examine where our loyalty lies, what we're willing to stand for, and whether our choices reflect the Kingdom of Heaven or the culture around us.From the sanctity of life to the everyday decisions we make, our allegiance to the King of Kings should influence every area of our lives.The question isn't just what we believe, but whether we're willing to live it.“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness...” Matthew 6:33If our sermons have encouraged you and you’d like to support it:Giving can be done online, mail, or delivered in person.Online: https://cpcava.org/giveMail: PO Box 1378 Ava, Missouri 65608

Are your choices building the life God has called you to live, or slowly tearing it apart? In this message, Youth Pastor Caleb Miles challenges us to examine how pride, fear, disobedience, and self-destructive habits can damage the very things God is building in our lives. Through the story of King Saul, we're reminded of the dangers of compromise, making excuses, and allowing our own desires to take the lead.

God isn't finished working in us, but we have to be willing to surrender, take responsibility, and allow Him to transform our hearts. Are you allowing God to build, or are you tearing it down with your own hands?

We made it to DAY 41! But what happens now?

For the past 40 days, we've committed to walking, listening, praying, and intentionally making room for Jesus. But the goal was never simply to complete 40 miles or listen to 40 devotionals. It was to build a relationship with Jesus and develop habits that carry into Day 41 and beyond.

In this final episode, Veronica Ratzlaff shares how the challenge has impacted her own daily routine and offers practical ways to continue growing in your walk with Jesus.

SO WHAT'S NEXT? HERE ARE 5 WAYS TO KEEP GOING!

1. START THE CHALLENGE AGAIN!

All 40 devotionals will remain available on the Cross Point Church app and podcast. Start over, revisit your favorites, or invite someone new to join you! God's Word can speak to us differently in different seasons.

2. KEEP LISTENING TO SERMONS.

Catch up on weekly Cross Point Church sermons or explore other Scripture-centered teaching.

Some recommendations:

• Cross Point Church Podcast

• Social Dallas

• Lakepointe Church

• Netcast Church

• Harris Creek Baptist Church

3. FIND BIBLICAL PODCASTS YOU ENJOY.

Whether you're walking, driving, getting ready, or doing chores, use that time to fill your mind with conversations that encourage spiritual growth.

Some favorites:

• Live Free with Josh Howerton

• WHOA That's Good

• The Jamie and Donna Winship Podcast

• The Jennie Allen Podcast

4. LISTEN TO GOD'S WORD.

Use the YouVersion Bible App to listen to Scripture, explore Bible reading plans, or find a faith-based book on Audible. And don't forget to make room for silence, prayer, and listening to God!

5. CREATE YOUR OWN CHALLENGE.

Keep walking, start journaling, memorize Scripture, set aside daily Bible reading time, pray with your family, or find someone to study Scripture with. Find a rhythm that helps you intentionally pursue Jesus every day.

SCRIPTURE TO CARRY FORWARD:

• Hebrews 12:1–2 — Run with endurance, keeping your eyes on Jesus.

• Isaiah 40:31 — Those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength.

• James 1:12 — Remain steadfast through trials.

• Romans 12:2 — Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

Whether you completed every day, missed a few, or are just getting started, don't stop here.

The challenge may be ending, but your walk with Jesus is just getting started.

Keep walking. Keep praying. Keep reading. Keep listening. Keep drawing near.

40 DAYS WAS THE CHALLENGE. DAY 41 IS THE MISSION.
