This week&apos;s scripture we go over:</p><p><b>John 4 ESV<br/></b>1Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John 2(although Jesus himself did not baptize, but only his disciples), 3he left Judea and departed again for Galilee. 4And he had to pass through Samaria. 5So he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the field that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. 6Jacob’s well was there; so Jesus, wearied as he was from his journey, was sitting beside the well. It was about the sixth hour.</p><p>7A woman from Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.” 8(For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.) 9The Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that you, a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a woman of Samaria?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.) 10Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.” 11The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw water with, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water? 12Are you greater than our father Jacob? He gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock.” 13Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, 14but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” 15The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I will not be thirsty or have to come here to draw water.”<a href='https://www.bible.com/bible/59/JHN.4.ESV'>...</a></p><p><br/></p><p>🔥 Take Your Next Step:</p><p>📖 Sermon Notes: <a href='https://www.bible.com/events/49612961'>CLICK HERE</a><br/>💬 Receive the Sermon Notes:<br/>Text <b>BOLDNESS</b> to 94000<br/>🙏 Support the Mission – Kingdom Culture Phoenix<br/>Text <b>GIVEKC</b> to 94000<br/>🤝 Start Your Journey – KC Connect<br/>Text <b>KCCONNECT</b> to 94000</p><p><br/></p><p><b>About Kingdom Culture Phoenix</b></p><p>Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus in Word and Spirit.</p><p><em>For more information, visit:</em><br/>https://www.kingdomculturephx.com</p>]]></description>

This week&apos;s scripture we go over:</p><p><b>Acts 5:1-11 ESV<br/></b><br/>But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of propertyand with his wife’s knowledge he kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and laid it at the apostles’ feet.But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to man but to God.”When Ananias heard these words, he fell down and breathed his last. And great fear came upon all who heard of it.The young men rose and wrapped him up and carried him out and buried him.After an interval of about three hours his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.And Peter said to her, “Tell me whether you sold the land for so much.” And she said, “Yes, for so much.”But Peter said to her, “How is it that you have agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.”Immediately she fell down at his feet and breathed her last. When the young men came in they found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.And great fear came upon the whole church and upon all who heard of these things.</p><p><br/></p><p>🔥 Take Your Next Step:</p><p>📖 Sermon Notes: <a href='https://www.bible.com/events/49599547'>CLICK HERE</a><br/>💬 Receive the Sermon Notes:<br/>Text <b>BOLDNESS</b> to 94000<br/>🙏 Support the Mission – Kingdom Culture Phoenix<br/>Text <b>GIVEKC</b> to 94000<br/>🤝 Start Your Journey – KC Connect<br/>Text <b>KCCONNECT</b> to 94000</p><p><b>About Kingdom Culture Phoenix</b></p><p>Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus in Word and Spirit.</p><p><em>For more information, visit:</em><br/>https://www.kingdomculturephx.com</p>]]></description>

And they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.</p><p><br/></p><p>🔥 Take Your Next Step:</p><p>📖 Sermon Notes: <a href='https://www.bible.com/events/49580812'>CLICK HERE</a><br/>💬 Receive the Sermon Notes:<br/>Text <b>BOLDNESS</b> to 94000<br/>🙏 Support the Mission – Kingdom Culture Phoenix<br/>Text <b>GIVEKC</b> to 94000<br/>🤝 Start Your Journey – KC Connect<br/>Text <b>KCCONNECT</b> to 94000</p><p><b>About Kingdom Culture Phoenix</b></p><p>Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus in Word and Spirit.</p><p><em>For more information, visit:</em><br/>https://www.kingdomculturephx.com</p>]]></content:encoded>

    <description><![CDATA[<p><b>Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus through Word and Spirit.</b></p><p><br/></p><p>Pastor Biedel talks about how God is perfectly <b>holy </b>set apart, pure, and righteous. His holiness defines justice, law, and love, as seen in Exodus 21, where His moral order shapes daily life. Because God is holy, He calls His people to be holy too: “Be holy, for I am holy” (Leviticus 11:44–45).</p><p>Holiness means being <b>set apart for God </b>not only avoiding sin but reflecting His character in conduct, thought, and heart.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>Kingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus through Word and Spirit.</b></p><p><br/></p><p>Pastor Biedel talks about how God is perfectly <b>holy </b>set apart, pure, and righteous. His holiness defines justice, law, and love, as seen in Exodus 21, where His moral order shapes daily life. Because God is holy, He calls His people to be holy too: “Be holy, for I am holy” (Leviticus 11:44–45).</p><p>Holiness means being <b>set apart for God </b>not only avoiding sin but reflecting His character in conduct, thought, and heart. It’s both <b>a command</b> and <b>a calling</b>—our duty, honor, and joy.</p><p>True holiness isn’t passive; it’s an <b>active pursuit</b> through grace.
