What does it actually look like to be a child of God?

Not just in name — but in reality?

In this message from the "Branches" series, Pastor Ben Kuerth opens 1 John 2:28–3:10 to show us that being united with Christ through His resurrection isn't just a title — it's a transformation. Jesus' victory over sin and the devil is not just history; it's personal. And it changes everything about how we live.

You are not merely labeled a child of God. You are truly adopted into His family.

That identity shapes your future hope and your present choices. According to John, authentic Christianity is marked by doing what is right — not to earn God's favor, but because you already have it. As His children, we are called to live with moral clarity in a culture of confusion — and to keep coming back to repentance and grace.

Like a championship team that already knows it won — we live from victory, not toward it. The resurrection of Jesus is your confidence. Now go bear real fruit.
