Remembering My Why challenges us to return to the foundation of our faith and remember why we chose to follow Jesus in the first place.
In this message, Ken Kochman shares how the Lord has been working in his life, stripping away spiritual pride, religious expectations, and misplaced confidence in his own righteousness to bring him back to a simple but life-changing truth: it's all about Jesus. Through Scripture, Ken explores the justice of God, the mercy that rescues us from what we deserve, and the grace that gives us what we could never earn. We're reminded that every one of us has fallen short of God's standard, yet through His great love, Jesus paid the price for our sins and offers us forgiveness, new life, the Holy Spirit, and the promise of eternity with Him. Christianity is not about checking religious boxes, earning God's approval, or following traditions. It's about knowing Jesus, receiving His gift of salvation, and allowing Him to transform us into His image. Whether we've followed Jesus for years or are just beginning to seek Him, this message calls us to remember our first love, renew the joy of our salvation, and fix our eyes on Jesus.
