Aspire Church Podcast
Located at the heart of Jacksonville, Florida, Aspire Church is engaged with God in His mission to make all things new. Aspire Church is not what you might expect. While the Corinthian columns and stained glass windows may lead you to believe you know what this place is all about, don't make your decision until you meet the people. At Aspire we believe it is the people, not the building, that is the church. We believe it is our privilege to represent Jesus in San Marco by creating ministry environments where people can GATHER to worship God, GROW in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ, and GO in the power of His Spirit to serve the world.

The world influences us most effectively when we don’t realize it. Every day, voices around us define success, freedom, love, identity, and the good life. Over time, their messages can make life apart from God appear normal and obedience to Jesus appear strange. In 1 John 2, we are warned not to give our love to a world that is passing away. But this does not mean withdrawing from society or treating people as enemies. In part four of Battle Lines, we will learn how to recognize the world’s influence, resist its temporary promises, and remain faithfully present as people shaped by the love and truth of God.
