In this message, Benjamin Shanks explores how Jesus gets us out of the cycle of sin.To break the cycle of sin, we need:1 — A COMMUNITY AROUND US;2 — A SAVIOUR AMONG US;3 — A KING ABOVE US.=====================EPISODE PAGEhttps://northernlife.org.au/resources/sermons/xins-judges =====================ABOUT NORTHERNLIFEWe're a church on a mission to love God, love others, and make disciples. 🌏 Website: https://northernlife.org.au 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/northernlifebaptistchurch 📘 Facebook: https://facebook.com/northernlifebaptistchurch 📹 YouTube: https://youtube.com/@NorthernLifeBaptistChurch
