The Real Reason Why Christians Lack Power

What if being “close enough” to Jesus isn’t actually enough? In this powerful episode, John and Lisa unpack the sobering parable of the ten virgins—where half were ready for the bridegroom, and half were left in the dark. They reveal a striking truth: everyone looked the same on the outside, but only a few carried the oil that truly mattered. And here’s the catch—it’s not something you can borrow. Watch now to learn how to cultivate a deep, authentic relationship with Christ—before time runs out.
