Summit Life
Through our radio program, we want to inspire daily encounters with Jesus and his transformative grace.

Summit Life aims to equip our church, empower our members for mission and encourage our people to go deeper in the gospel of Jesus Christ, the source of our life.

Summit Life began as a way of supplementing the weekend teaching of The Summit Church – a way to make a sermon last more than 40 minutes on Sunday.

Listen to Summit Life through our radio podcast, a daily, 25-minute program with Pastor J.D. Greear.

Series: I Am an Alien
Speaker: J.D. Greear
Book: 1 Peter
From the first century to the 21st, Christians around the world have gladly given their lives for the sake of the gospel. There are countless stories of believers singing as they went to their execution and praying for their enemies. Where did they get that otherworldly courage? Pastor J.D. answers that question as he begins a brand new series called, I Am an Alien. We’re learning what it means to be in the world but not of the world.

Speaker: J.D. Greear
Book: Romans
We talk a lot on Summit Life about living our lives on a mission… “sent” into the mission field God has placed us in. Today, we’ll hear more about how we can fulfill the Great Commission in our families, our workplaces, and whatever situation we find ourselves in. Because, no matter what season of life we’re in, our calling as followers of Jesus is to “Live Sent.”

Did you know that every single worship service at The Summit Church in Raleigh-Durham, where Pastor J.D. pastors, ends with the same three words? Those words are: “You are sent.” We love gathering to worship God together every weekend, but we always want to remind ourselves that once we leave the church service, the real work begins… because we’re all missionaries being “sent out” into our mission field!

Series: Romans
Speaker: J.D. Greear
Book: Romans
This is the Tale of Two Adams: While one man brought the curse of death upon the human race, another man sacrificed and took that curse into himself. Pastor J.D. continues to teach in this message how we have chosen sin, like the first Adam, but we can choose life through the second man, Jesus Christ. When we do, we’ll understand why every son and daughter of Adam needs to hear how they, too, can be redeemed.

Series: Romans
Speaker: J.D. Greear
Book: Romans
We all have a problem: We are living under the curse of sin and death, all because of the choice of one man: Adam. That’s pretty depressing, isn’t it? But there’s hope in the gospel. In today’s message, Pastor J.D. walks through Romans 5 and shows us how, even though we all made the same choice as Adam to sin, we can all make the choice today to accept salvation through another man—the second Adam, Jesus Christ.
