Going Back Different :: Alvin Brown | Second Chances

Have you ever tried to outgrow your past by outrunning it?

You know, where you change your habits, switch up your circle, chase something new, maybe even try to become a different version of yourself.

And yet, somewhere in the quiet, you still feel the pull of what was left unresolved.

In Going Back Different, Pastor Alvin guides us into a short, often overlooked letter in the Bible and wrestles with a very real question: 

What does it actually take to go back differently

Not just to say sorry or to move on, but to return changed.

If you’ve been avoiding a hard conversation or carrying regret, this message is for you, especially if you still wonder whether your worst moment defines you.

And if you’re on the other side, trying to decide whether someone who says they’ve changed can really be trusted, it’s for you too.

If you’ve been running, replaying a conversation you still haven’t had, or wondering if real change is even possible, press play and let’s take this step toward a second chance together.
