About this listen

In this week’s message, Pastor Putnam calls the church to a Holy separation—to stop reaching back for the things that Christ has already buried. Drawing from Romans 6:23 and 2 Corinthians 5:17, Pastor Putnam reminds us that “the wages of sin is death,” but through Jesus Christ, we’ve been made new. From the laws of Leviticus to the ashes of the red heifer, he unveils a powerful truth: death was never meant to be handled. What we touch spiritually—our habits, our relationships, our attitudes—can either defile or renew us. With urgency and compassion, Pastor Putnam challenges believers to quit handling the “dead things” of their past: dead habits, dead relationships, dead attitudes, and dead desires. For when we cling to what Christ has already cleansed us from, we risk becoming unclean again. But when we let go—when we leave the graveyard behind—we step into resurrection life. If you’ve been struggling to move on from your past, revisiting what God has already forgiven, or wondering why your walk with Him feels heavy, this message will remind you that true salvation brings true life change. Today, it’s time to leave the dead things behind—and step into the new life that Jesus Christ has prepared for you.
