CLIMB | Link Up

Link Up | CLIMB Series — Week 2

“Let us not become weary in doing good… if we do not give up.” — Galatians 6:9
“Let us not neglect our meeting together… but encourage one another.” — Hebrews 10:24–25

Climbing alone might feel simpler, cleaner, and safer — but it’s also how people fall.
In Week 2 of the CLIMB series, Pastor CJ Witkoe reminds us that God never intended us to climb our ministry mountain by ourselves. The climb may be slower. It may be messier. But you will never go as far alone as you could with others.

Using powerful imagery from mountaineering, this message reveals why linking up isn’t optional — it’s essential. Ropes and harnesses don’t eliminate danger, but they keep one misstep from becoming fatal. In the same way, Christian community doesn’t remove hardship, but it keeps us from isolation, burnout, and spiritual collapse.

In this message, you’ll discover:
🧗 Why isolation is one of the enemy’s most effective strategies
🤝 How encouragement requires intentionality, not convenience
🔥 Why obedience — not success — is the true metric of faith
🏠 Why gathering with the church is irreplaceable (and livestreams are supplements, not sustenance)
🌾 How the “harvest” we’re waiting for may be standing right next to us

Hebrews tells us to think carefully about how to motivate one another — to spur each other on toward love and good works — especially now. Time is short. Jesus is coming back. And every gathering is an opportunity for a miracle.

If you’ve ever thought, “No one understands,” this message will remind you that nothing wars against isolation like worshipping alongside people who have experienced the same grace you have.
