UGA Wesley

This week, Bob discusses how we can rely on the Bible, God's word, as a source of truth and hope. We can believe in what is written because of who Jesus is, and as a result, we can believe His promises for revival in our lives to be true.

Bob speaks on the subject of awakening and revival. God has a history of using His people around the world to spark revivals and inspire generations of Christians. We believe that same spirit is ready and wanting to revive the people in the city of Athens and the students at UGA.

When we truly grasp the story of calvary and what was accomplished through the death and resurrection of Jesus, our hearts should be lead to respond with two tings - gratitude and devotion.

Why is the cross necessary? Why did Jesus have to die? What was accomplished in his death? How does this affect the way that we live today and the way that we respond to God? Tonight, Bob answers questions like this and more and paves the way for our body to grow in our adoration for Jesus.

What Does God Think About You? It's an incredibly important question and what we believe to be true in response to this question dictates so much about our faith journey. Tonight's message is simple, but has the power to truly set us free.

In Romans 8:37 Paul says that "we are more than conquerors through him who loved us." In tonight's message Bob unpacks this famous passage and gives tangible ways for what this can look like in our lives as we pursue Jesus.

Romans 8:17 says, "Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory." Tonight Bob unpacks what this means for us and how it should alter the way that we live.

What does the life we're longing for actually look like? And how does a life filled with the Spirit lead us into more of that?

In this message, Wesley directors Daniel Simmons, Mellisa DeRamus, and Leah Vickroy discuss the topics of anger, sexuality, and approval as it pertains to living on the narrow road as Jesus describes in the book of Matthew.

In this message, Bob kicks off a new series where we get to learn about Jesus's heart behind why walking on the "narrow road" is both difficult yet rewarding. As true followers and disciples of Jesus, we are called to take His teachings to heart and trust in His word to find real satisfaction in life and point others to the cross.

In this week's message, Daniel discusses how God is a Responder. He is looking for faithful, desperate people to partner with. As we roll back the curtain on our own insecurities self-fulfilling tendencies, we begin to realize just how desperate we are for God. It's in those moments where we see him rightly and get to respond accordingly out of the goodness and kindness of his character.

In this week's message, Bob discusses how God is trustworthy. In moments where we are faced with tough challenges and ask ourselves if we can trust God, we are met with the realization that He is faithful to His promises.

In this message, Bob discusses God as being a Restorer and Redeemer. Jesus Christ has come to redeem our sins through His shed blood on Calvary and restores the time the enemy has robbed from us. Christ’s redeeming us opens the way for Him to purify us. Trusting in God's character enables us to live in both freedom and victory, walking in step with the Spirit.

In this week's message, Bob discusses God's love; both what it means to love and how it shapes our lives. To love someone is to be for them, to bless them, and to go out of our way to serve them. As we experience God's love through Christ's sacrifice, our hearts are transformed into a posture of giving away out of the abundant love God has over all creation.

In this message, Bob explains that following Jesus, looking to Him in all we do and seeking to follow His commands, is how we best catch a glimpse of who God is. As John's gospel tells us, Jesus is God in human form and the Word made flesh. Aligning our hearts and minds with that of Christ is how we can best orient ourselves to live in the fullness that God created us for.

This week, Bob shares his heart behind why he believes revival is coming soon to UGA and the city of Athens. As we begin to return to the way things were pre-COVID, this message serves as a reminder of hope. What follows a shaking of destruction is a shaking of reconstruction, where God is going to rebuild what the enemy previously took away from us.

In this message, Daniel Simmons articulates how we as children of God can engage in healthy confrontation and conflict resolution to honor people in our relationships.

God’s will is for us to live unafraid. But the reality is that fear is something we all experienced in different aspects of our lives. How can we live bravely and become courageous in a world where fear is so common?

God is a near God, not a distant God. His design of life from the beginning was a life with us. There’s an invitation to become more aware of Him in our lives and to walk with Him further into who He designed us to be.

In this message, Erin looks at how sin, shame, and the Cross are all connected. Sin and shame were never a part of God’s original intent for humanity, and through Jesus’ death and resurrection, we no longer have to live under their power. Because of Jesus, we have been restored back to the holiness, freedom, and unhindered connection with God that we were made for.

In this message, Dustin explores the kingdom of God by looking through the drama of the whole Bible.

In this message, Aaron teaches on the implications and blessings of Jesus as our King. Be sure to come to our weekly Wednesday night services at 8 pm at the Wesley main chapel!
