What's Filling You?

What's filling your life — and what spills out when things get hard? Pastor Joel Hastings closes out the book of Titus with a question most of us avoid: how do we stay focused on God's mission when toxic people, foolish arguments, and spiritual junk food keep pulling us off course?

Drawing from Titus 3:9–15, Pastor Joel walks through the difference between controversies worth fighting for and ones that simply drain us, how to handle divisive people with grace and firmness, and why the gospel is the only thing that can turn what's toxic into something clean. The sermon lands with a simple but searching question: when life squeezes you, what pours out?

Here's a couple key takeaways

• Not every argument deserves your energy — learn to identify what's truly worth standing firm on and let go of the rest.

• When someone is sowing division, the most loving response is a patient warning — and then a firm boundary.

• The life formed by grace overflows grace. What's filling you determines what spills out onto the people around you.
