In this week’s message, Pastor Richard unpacks what it means to love people who are difficult to love. Using John 4 and Jesus’ encounter with the Samaritan woman, we’re challenged to step out of our comfort zones, find common ground, and love like Christ—even when it’s hard. Unity isn’t tested with the easy ones—it’s proven when we love the hard-to-love.

In Part 6 of "The Art of Peopling," Pastor Richard dives into the topic of Emotional Strongholds—the thought patterns, beliefs, and hidden wounds that keep us in bondage and block us from walking in the freedom Christ offers.

💥 Topics Covered:What is an emotional stronghold and how does it form?Why identifying the root is essential for healingThe importance of confession, repentance, and renewing your mindWhy your words matter—Ephesians 4:29How to stop living like a prisoner and start living like you're free
