  • The Full Circle of Transformation
    Dec 25 2025

    Discover what happens when speaking to someone's identity becomes more than a one-time event—it becomes our way of life. In this conclusion to the epiphany series, Graham Cooke reveals that when we act toward difficult people as though their God-given identity were true, we're actually being most like Jesus because that's exactly what He does all the time. The blessing we give out returns to us pressed down, shaken together, and running over. As we speak identity to others, the Holy Spirit begins engaging with us about our own identity. This teaching shows how God sees us—not as people with something wrong, but as people missing a few things from our relationship with Him, which He fully intends to give us.


    **Key Scriptures:**


    + Luke 6:38. "Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over..."


    + Galatians 6:7. "Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap..."


    + Romans 12:2. "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind..."

  • Nothing Wrong, Something Missing
    Dec 18 2025

    What happens when we discover there's nothing wrong with the difficult person in our life—only something missing? Graham Cooke shares the story of completely losing his composure with an intensely negative person, and the stunning revelation that followed. When Graham demanded to know "What is wrong with that guy?" he heard a small voice say, "Absolutely nothing." Through Colossians 2:13-14, we discover what was nailed to the cross besides Jesus—the decrees we make against people because of their behavior. This teaching reveals why everyone wants to be better, how grace becomes a territory all by itself, and what happens when we speak to someone's identity in the face of bad behavior. Both the speaker and the hearer are transformed.


    **Key Scriptures:**


    + Colossians 2:13-14. "Having canceled the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us..."


    + Romans 6:11. "Reckon yourselves dead to sin and alive to God..."


    + 2 Corinthians 5:16. "We regard no one according to the flesh..."

  • The Choice Between Peace and Anxiety
    Dec 11 2025

    How would our lives change if we saw ourselves the way God sees us? Graham Cooke unpacks one of the most powerful revelations of his life—Exodus 7:1, where God tells Moses, "See, I have made you as God to Pharaoh." We discover that God goes to extraordinary lengths to empower us to see ourselves as He really sees us, and when we finally see it, everything changes. Through four distinct epiphanies from this single scripture, we learn that God never takes no for an answer, He calls us to the impossible so He can make all the difference, and whatever He sees in us, we get to become forever. This teaching explores why difficult people are actually grace growers and how God creates opportunities to develop what He most wants to give us.


    **Key Scriptures:**


    + Exodus 7:1. "See, I have made you as God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet..."


    + Colossians 2:10. "And you are complete in Him..."


    + 1 John 4:17. "As He is, so are we in this world..."
