Are Christians Desensitized to Sin? | Live Free with Josh Howerton
We kicked off our new series, The Rebel Way, by diving deep into the Sermon on the Mount—a message that’s as radical and relevant today as it was when Jesus first preached it. Pastors Mike Breaux, Chris Kuti and Carlos Erazo unpack the Beatitudes and how this countercultural invitation leads us toward a life of freedom, purpose, and transformation.
From personal stories of brokenness to the beauty of surrender, we explored how Jesus flips the script on what it means to be truly blessed. Whether you’re struggling with pride, searching for peace, or simply longing for a deeper relationship with God, this conversation reminds us that the narrow path is the one worth walking. As we follow Jesus upstream, we discover a faith that’s authentic, compelling, and full of grace.
