Pastor Rick's Daily Hope

God's plan for all time involves the church. In fact, Jesus died for the church—that's how valuable it is! In this broadcast, Pastor Rick examines why the church is the most important thing on earth and why God is more interested in building it than any nation, business, or organization.

Have you ever thought about this: If God wants to take you to heaven, why doesn't he just take you there instantly once you become a believer? Why does God put you on this planet for so many years? Join Pastor Rick as he teaches what the Bible says about why God made you and how he uniquely shaped you to fulfill a specific purpose here on earth.

You were made by God, and you were made for God. Until you understand that, your life will never make sense. You've got to start with God. Join Pastor Rick as he continues to teach how the Bible answers the question: "What on earth am I here for?"

The only way you're ever going to know the purpose for your life—why you're here on this planet, and what on earth you're here for—is to talk to your Creator, God, and to read his Word, the Bible. Pastor Rick teaches that your purpose starts with God.

From the very beginning, God's plan has been to make you like his Son, Jesus. In this message, Pastor Rick explores some of the aspects you share with God and how you can grow in his image and likeness as you "see the original and intended shape of our lives there in him" (Romans 8:29 MSG).
