Renouncing Counterfeits & Deception | Returning to the Fountain | New Year, New You – Week 2 | Pastor Daniel Kolson


🕊️ You can love Jesus, have good intentions, and still be drinking from the wrong source.


In Week 2 of the “New Year, New You” series, Pastor Daniel Kolson goes deeper into the unseen battle shaping our lives—not the battle of discipline, but the battle of source and voice.


This message exposes how freedom is often blocked not by rebellion, but by deception—subtle agreements with voices, habits, beliefs, and practices that promise comfort, control, or clarity apart from God. Drawing from Scripture, pastoral wisdom, and practical discipleship, Pastor Daniel invites the church to identify counterfeit sources, break agreements with lies, and return to Jesus as the fountain of living water.


This is not a fear-based message.

This is not self-help.

This is a freedom and discipleship message—calling believers back to alignment, truth, and intimacy with God.


You’ll learn:

How deception often begins with distortion, not denial

Why counterfeits form when people are seeking relief, not rebellion

How agreements give spiritual influence room to operate

Why renouncing lies is not dramatic—but deeply biblical

How to close doors and realign your life with Jesus as your source
