Everybody wants six figures… but what if we’ve misunderstood what that actually means?In Week 1 of the Six Figures series, we address prosperity, one of the most misunderstood words in culture and Christianity. Pastor Michael Todd breaks down the Word to show us that prosperity is Biblical. God wants us to live an abundant, prosperous life which includes our relationships, our soul, our purpose and yours, our resources. The problem isn’t prosperity, it’s our perception of it. This message will help you reorder your life the right way: love God, love people, and use money. Scripture References: John 10:10 NKJV Ephesians 2:10 NLT Deuteronomy 28:11-13 NIV Proverbs 11:25 NIV 3 John 1:2 NKJV
Most of us believe God has more for us, but are we actually living it? In this message, Better Than Dreaming, Pastor Charles Metcalf unpacks the tension between the life we hope for and the life we’re actually experiencing. In John 10:10, Jesus makes it clear: the enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy but He came so we could have a full, abundant life. The question is… do you have it? This message challenges us to move beyond just accepting grace and start acting on it. The life you’ve been praying for is often found in the action you’ve been avoiding.If you’re ready to stop just hearing the Word and start living it, this message will show you how acting on grace works in you, on you, and through you, so you can experience a life that’s truly better than dreaming. Scripture References: John 10:10 NIV John 10:10 MSG James 1:22-25 MSG
No matter what you are going through, darkness has a deadline. In this powerful Easter Sunday message, Pastor Michael reminded us that the resurrection on Sunday does not erase the reality of Friday and Saturday. Many of us know what it feels like to live in the tension of grief, disappointment, loneliness, addiction, fear, anxiety, or waiting for God to move. But even when it feels dark, the SON is always shining. If you have been carrying pain, wrestling with purpose, facing loss, or wondering when your breakthrough will come, this message is for you. No matter how long it has been. No matter how dark it has been. No matter how impossible it feels. CLOCK IT. Darkness has a deadline. Here comes the Son. Scripture References Luke 24:1-6 NLT Hebrews 4:15 NIV Luke 23:44-46 NLT 2 Corinthians 5:21 ESV John 8:12 NLT Lamentations 3:22-23 ESV Psalms 30:5 NKJV Ephesians 5:8 NLT John 3:16 NIV
God desires for you to prosper in your soul, your mind, will, and emotions, but sometimes footholds and strongholds keep us from moving forward. In Week 7 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd exposes how the enemy tries to gain a strategic position in our lives through soul ties. But we are reminded us of the truth in James 4:7 to resist the devil, and he will flee. This message breaks down the different types of soul ties including initial, influential, idol, and illegitimate intimacy ties, and reveals how they can keep you bound if left unaddressed. But the good news is this, the blood of Jesus is greater than any bond formed in sin. If you are ready to break free, this message will show you how to identify and actively break soul ties so you can walk in true freedom in Christ. Scripture References 3 John 1:2 NKJV Ephesians 4:18-27 MSG James 4:7 NIV 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 NIV Proverbs 18:21 NKJV 2 Corinthians 4:2 ESV James 5:16 ESV Psalms 23:1-3 NKJV
Sex is a topic that impacts everyone and culture doesn’t own it because God made it. In Week 6 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Charles Metcalf reminds us that one of our first commands was to be fruitful and multiply. God also created a standard for how it’s meant to be experienced. God is not anti-sex, He’s anti-sin. When we miss His design, it impacts our soul, our relationships, and our future. Through both biblical truth and practical insight, Pastor Charles shows how sex was designed to bond, not break, and why misusing it can lead to disconnection, numbness, and confusion. In this message you’ll understand three goals of godly sex: purity, serving, and sacredness. Whether you’re single, dating, or married, this message will challenge you to honor God with your body and align your life with His original design. Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 6:12–13, 19–20 NLT Genesis 1:3 NLT 1 Peter 1:16 NLT 1 Corinthians 5:12–20 NLT Proverbs 6:32 NLT
Culture may try to convince us that it’s better to be alone, but the truth is marriage is still winning. The real question is: are you ready for it? In Week 5 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that marriage works 100% of the time when we do it God’s way. While culture often teaches that it’s better to marry than to burn with lust, Pastor Mike challenges us to pursue the greater option - developing self-control and surrendering our lives fully to God.This message reminds wives that they are anointed for their husbands and encourages men to provide safety, leadership, and covering for their wives. Whether you are single, dating, or married, this message will challenge you to prepare your heart, build godly character, and become the person God is calling you to be before stepping into the covenant of marriage. Scripture References 3 John 1:2 NKJV Proverbs 18:22 NKJV Proverbs 31:10 NIV Hebrews 13:4 NIV 1 Corinthians 7:6-9 NLT Ephesians 5:1-2 NLT Ephesians 5:22-33 NLT Ephesians 5:21 NLT Galatians 2:20 NIV Genesis 2:21 NLT Mark 12:30-31 NIV Luke 14:25-28 NLT Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 NLT Matthew 19:6 NIV
This message is for anyone preparing for promise after pain. In Week 4 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that restoration is possible after any level of devastation, destruction, death, divorce, or disappointment. Looking at the story of Ruth, we see how she unexpectedly became a second-time single, yet God redeemed her story and restored her legacy through her relationship with Boaz. If you’ve experienced heartbreak or loss, this message will encourage you to trust God again, make faith-filled decisions, and move forward beyond disappointment. We pray it empowers you to let God take the broken pieces of your story and restore them into something greater than you imagined. Scripture References: Ruth 1:1–5 NLT Ruth 1:9–11,16 NLT Proverbs 3:5–6 NLT Ruth 1:20–21 NLT Ruth 2:1–3 NLT Proverbs 31:27 NIV Ruth 2:11–12 NLT Ruth 3:1–6 NLT Joel 2:25 ESVMatthew 1:5 NLT
Culture has sold us a counterfeit version of love that feels exhilarating, euphoric, and full of uninterrupted bliss, pleasure and enjoyment. It’s like everyone wants to be “drunk in love.” But in Week 2 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that no one makes wise decisions while intoxicated. Using a powerful illustration with drunk goggles, Pastor Mike shows how being drunk in your soul can distort your walk, your choices, and your relationships. Rooted in 1 Thessalonians 5:5–8, this message calls us to be sober in our soul so we can build relationships with clarity and wisdom. You’ll discover the four things a healthy soul must believe and gain revelation on how to build relationships that are strong, stable, and God-centered moving forward. Scripture References 3 John 1:2 NKJV 1 Thessalonians 5:5-8 NIV
This series has the power to change every relationship you’ve had, have now, and will ever have. In Week 1 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that the goal isn’t just chemistry—it’s healthy relationships, and healthy relationships start with healthy people. Pastor Mike unpacks the four foundational needs we all carry: to be seen, soothed, secure, and safe, and challenges us to examine our soul health. God is your soulmate—your spouse is your soul match. When you stop expecting people to fill a place only God can occupy, you make room for relationships that are whole, healed, and built to last. Culture has a lot to say about love, but this series injects God’s perspective into what culture lacks wisdom on. This message challenges us to ask the hard questions: Is your soul healthy? Are your thoughts healthy when no one else is around? Would you marry you? We pray this message and series gives you the clarity and confidence that you need to win in relationships! Scripture References Matthew 6:9-10 ESV 2 Peter 1:3 NLT 3 John 1:2 NJKV Psalm 19:7 NASB Psalm 25:12-13 NASB Psalms 23:1-3 NASB
What does it look like to move forward with a solid foundation? In Week 4 of the Forward Series, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us to build for the future by establishing clear standards rooted in Christ. He reminds us that sight without standards leads to self-sabotage and that going forward without the right foundation is foolish. Pastor Michael unpacks why God’s Word is the only standard that remains steady in every season and introduces The Great 8, our church’s Culture Code, as the values shaping who we are and how we build. From Crazy Faith and Generosity to Worship and Fun this message calls us to live out our faith with intention, integrity, and impact. If you’re ready to stop drifting, start building wisely, and move forward with purpose, this word will help you lay the right foundation for what God is doing next. 📲 Want to be A P.A.R.T. of what God is doing here at Transformation?

What God has done is nothing compared to what He is about to do. As we move forward, we can’t stay stuck in what God already delivered us from. In Week 3 of the Forward Series, Pastor Michael Todd reveals that being delivered from something is not the same as being delivered into the promise. This message challenges us to examine where we may still be holding on to our past instead of fully walking in what God promised. We pray this word breaks false thought patterns and helps you embrace the standard God has given to guide your life forward. Scripture References Philippians 3:12-14 NLT Isaiah 43:15-19 NLT Romans 12:2 AMP Isaiah 40:8 ESV
Is your past holding you back from moving forward? In Week 2 of the FORWARD Sermon Series, Pastor Charles Metcalf teaches us that the prerequisite for moving forward is learning how to properly place our past. Whether your past feels like a trophy you don’t want to let go of, a trap you keep returning to, or a tragedy marked by pain, shame, or grief, God is calling you forward. If you’ve been struggling with the grips of your past, this message will teach you how to remember differently, redeem what was meant to take you out, and represent God’s faithfulness through your testimony. It’s time to press forward into everything God has prepared for you.

What if you couldn’t skip the hard parts, but you could move through them faster? On Week 1 of the Forward Series, Pastor Michael Todd challenged us to stop avoiding what God is using and learn how to FAST FORWARD into the future He’s prepared for us. Forward doesn’t go around opposition, it goes through it. In this message, we learn how fasting helps us move faster through discomfort, distraction, and disappointment by choosing surrender, obedience, and the courage to D.A.R.E. again. As we reset, God is calling us to release fear, pick up faith, and move forward faster. Scripture References: Philippians 3:13-14 NLT Psalm 119:105 NKJV Matthew 10:14 NIV 2 Timothy 1:7 KJV Nehemiah 6:3 NLT
VISION SUNDAY // VISION IS MOST VALUABLE // PASTOR MICHAEL TODD Do you have a clear vision of who God has called you to be? Scripture tells us that without vision, people perish but with vision, we gain clarity and can run forward with purpose. On Vision Sunday, Pastor Michael Todd shared four powerful truths about vision and revealed our Word of the Year: FORWARD. Vision needs a vessel, vision must be visible, vision must be vast, and vision must have a vehicle. One of the most spiritual things you can do this year is take time to write the vision God has given you. As we move forward, we’re choosing to release the past and step into the future with hope and faith for all God has ahead. Scripture References: Proverbs 29:18 KJV Habakkuk 2:2 MSG Isaiah 43:15-19 NLT Isaiah 43:18-19 NLT Philippians 3:12-14 NLT
RESET SUNDAY // I WANT TO PRAY MORE , LIKE JESUS // PASTOR CHARLES METCALF As the new year begins, many of us set New Year resolutions in hopes of building better, healthier habits. Yet only 8–9% of people actually stick with their resolutions for the entire year. So what keeps us from reaching our goals? On Reset Sunday, Pastor Charles Metcalf reveals that lasting change doesn’t come from willpower or behavior modification; it comes through prayer. This year, we’re not interested in praying wordy, empty prayers. Our goal is to pray like Jesus.As we prepare for 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting (January 5–25), this message will teach you how to develop a prayer life that doesn’t just change your habits, but transforms you from the inside out. To learn more about 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting, text FASTING to 828282 or visit transformchurch.us/21-days-of-prayer-fasting.

Christmas at TC
In a season where finances can feel uncertain and giving can feel triggering, this message invites us to see that Crazy Faith isn’t measured by what we give, but by how we obey. Crazy faith will always be defined by obedience and not amounts. In Week 13 of the Triggered Sermon Series, Pastor Michael Todd outlines the 4 things God values more than money. God values heart posture, sacrifice, memory, and eternity more than dollars and cents. From the woman with the alabaster jar to the widow’s two mites, we’re reminded that generosity is rooted in trust in God. This message challenges us to give not out of pressure, but from remembering what God has done, who He’s been, and where He’s taking us. If you want to give in crazy faith, visit https://transformchurch.us/crazy-faith-offering or text CRAZY FAITH to 828282. Scripture References: 1 Samuel 15:22 NIV Exodus 18:20 NIV Matthew 26:6-13 NIV Matthew 6:21 NIV Proverbs 3:5-6 NIV Luke 21:1-4 NKJV Matthew 21 Matthew 6:19-21 NIV
Whatever fills you is what spills out of you. This includes fear, foolishness, faith and so much more. In Week 11 of the Triggered Series, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us with one question: What comes out of you when life squeezes you? Triggers don’t create your reaction; they reveal your internal ammunition. And if we want a different outcome, we have to be filled with something different. This message will teach you how to believe what others don’t, protect the seed of your belief, and believe longer, not just stronger. We pray you get full of faith so that when life squeezes you, what comes out looks like God, not your fears. Scripture References: Hebrews 11:1 NLT 2 Corinthians 5:7 ESV Numbers 13:25-33 NLT
WEEK 11: TRIGGERED // TRAIN YOUR TRIGGERS: WITHHOLDING NOTHING // PASTOR MICHAEL TODD Someone is waiting for you to stop withholding what God has given you! When you live triggered you will withhold your faith, your forgiveness, your finances, your love and more. In Week 11 of the Triggered Series, Pastor Michael Todd teaches us how to trade our triggers for triumphant faith. This message will show us how to take inventory of what we have, find inspiration, interrupt the cycle and invest in the future. Scripture References: Ecclesiates 11:4-6 NLT James 2:17 NLT Genesis 37-45
We exist to re-present God to the lost & found for transformation in Christ.
WEEK 9: TRIGGERED // ANGER DANGER: WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW IS HURTING YOU // PASTOR TIM ROSS The anger you refuse to deal with will become the crash-out you never saw coming. Anger isn’t the issue, unprocessed anger is. In Week 9 of our Triggered Series, Pastor Tim Ross helps us understand what anger really is, why God designed it, and how it can turn dangerous when we don’t deal with it honestly. Whether you’re someone who explodes like Moses or implodes like the older brother, this message shows you how anger shows up in your body, what it’s trying to tell you, and how Jesus models a healthy way to express it. You don’t have to let anger rewrite your story. If you’re ready to name it, process it, and let Jesus lead you through it, this message will help you deal with your anger before your anger deals with you. Scripture References: Ephesians 4:26-27 TLV Numbers 20:7-12 TLV Luke 15:25-30 TLV Matthew 21:12-13 TLV
WEEK 8: TRIGGERED // COPE LIKE CHRIST // PASTOR BRIE DAVIS At the root of every crash out is a coping mechanism we created to survive. And when we are triggered, it isn’t random, it’s an invitation from God to reveal where He wants to transform us. In Week 8 of the Triggered Series, Pastor Brie teaches us how to shift from Crash Out Coping to Christ-like Coping. This message helps us learn how to choose community over conflict, obedience over oppression, prayer over powering through, and empowerment over externalizing. When the triggers hit (and they will) — you don’t have to cope like culture… you can cope like Christ, even in the crash out. Scripture References: Matthew 11:28-30 NLT Mark 14:33-34 NLT Mark 14:36 NLT Matthew 26:39 NLT Matthew 26:42 NLT Matthew 26:44 NLT Luke 22:43 NLT
WEEK 6: TRIGGERED // CAN I STILL COME HOME? // PASTOR CHARLES METCALF We’ve learned how to recognize our triggers before a crash out, but what happens when the crash already happened? After a crash out, we have two options: experience shame or experience grace. In Week 6 of the Triggered Series, Pastor Charles Metcalf breaks down the difference between conviction and condemnation and how each impacts our connection with God. While condemnation says you are your mistake, conviction reminds you there’s more for you beyond your mistakes. If you’ve crashed out, know that God is ready and happy to welcome you home. We pray this message helps you acknowledge what happened, admit what occurred, and accept the grace Jesus freely offers. Scripture References: John 3:16-18 MSG Romans 8:1 NLT Luke 15:1-3 MSG Luke 15:11-24 MSG Isaiah 61:7 NLT
Sometimes, in the middle of a crash out, God will send correction our way. Just like a quarterback throws a pass to his receiver, God throws us correction. Will you catch it? In Week 5 of the Triggered Sermon Series, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that God corrects those He loves, and His grace keeps us in the game. We are corrected because we have a calling, which means we must stay in position to receive it. We pray this message helps you recognize God’s correction as an expression of His love and prepares your heart to receive it well. Scripture References: Matthew 26:50-54 NIV 1 Samuel 13:8-14 Proverbs 3:12 NLT 1 Peter 5:6 ESV 1 Samuel 15:10-11 NLT 1 Samuel 15:20-23 NLT Acts 3:19 NIV
Every vehicle needs fuel or a charge to keep going—and as believers, we need to be continually refueled by the Holy Spirit to keep walking in faith. After an incredible Faith in the Fire V4 Conference, Pastor Tim Ross wrapped up the weekend with a powerful reminder that we aren’t flashlights—we’re flames! Through V4 Conference, we learned how to face fires that feel unfair to running boldly into the ones God calls us to. This message will help you stay on fire by staying filled with the Holy Spirit. We pray it reignites your flame and stirs a fresh hunger for more of Him. Scripture References Acts 2:1-4 TLV Acts 4:23-31 TLV
WEEK 3: TRIGGERED // KEEP THE WINDOW OPEN: INCREASING THE WINDOW OF TOLERANCE // PASTOR MICHAEL TODD We will never work on what we never recognize is an issue. Unaddressed triggers lead to a crash out. In Week 3 of Triggered Pastor Michael Todd, we discovered that we all have a window of tolerance which is a zone that we can optimally function in when we manage our emotions properly. Opposition and challenges keep our window of tolerance open. Opposition is not our enemy, it’s our authenticator! When we expand our relationship with discomfort, we grow in emotional maturity and increase our capacity to love, endure, and live like Christ. Scripture References: Ephesians 4:1-4 NLT Malachi 3:10 NLT Galatians 6:1-3 NLT
Is your lack of emotional capacity shrinking your calling?There are people you are called to reach, but if your emotional capacity doesn’t make room for their differences, faults, and issues, you could be forfeiting your calling. In Week 2 of Triggered, Pastor Michael illustrated the need for believers to expand their emotional capacity so we can truly care for others and not be triggered by trivial things or personal pet peeves. Our goal is to grow in emotional maturity and make space for the people God has called us to. Remember: your triggers and your emotional capacity are calling you daily. Your capacity is your call! Scripture References: John 16:33 NIV Matthew 11:28-30 NLT Ezra 3:10 NIVRomans 12:15 NIV Hebrews 6:1 NIV 1 Corinthians 13:11NIV Ephesians 4:2-3 NIV
We all have triggers rooted in trauma. When our triggers are unaddressed, they usually lead to a crash out. As Pastor returns from his sabbatical for Week 1 of the Triggered: Finding Christ in the Crash Out sermon series, he shows us how our triggers are an invitation by God to transformation. In a world that has become great at confessing our issues, we must be ready to change them as well. We pray this message causes you to not fall for the traps of your triggers but lean into the transformation from your traumas. Scripture References: Matthew 11:28-30 NLT Matthew 7:3-5 NLT Genesis 3:9 NLT Mark 4:38-40 NLT
9/7/25 WEEK 5: DO NOT DISTURB // THE DISTRACTION OF DYSFUNCTION: WELCOME TO THE NEW YOU // PASTOR ROOSEVELT STEWART Are you operating on old software? Are you tired of the same old things in life? In the kingdom, God wants to renew our minds by receiving constant updates through staying connected with Him. In Week 5 of the Do Not Disturb Sermon Series, Pastor Roosevelt delivered a powerful Word on how we can get to our new normal. The next thing that God wants to do in us will require us to decide, discard the distractions, directly connect with God, develop in the dark and discover our new selves! We pray this message causes you to connect and reconnect to the Source to receive the new that God has for you. Scripture References: Romans 12:1-2 NKJV Ephesians 4:17-19 NKJV Colossians 3:10 NKJV Ephesians 4:22-24 NKJV Ephesians 4:17-19 NKJV Isaiah 43:19 NKJV Luke 2:52 NKJV Matthew 14:22-23 NKJV
Your destiny demands a decision. We are presented with so many options in the world that can cause us to go from decision fatigue to indecision. In Week 4 of the Do Not Disturb Series, Pastor Will Heckenbach shared a powerful word to encourage us to double down and make an unwavering decision to serve the Lord. There is a version of you waiting to overcome the distractions. As he shared a vulnerable moment of wanting to give up, this message showed us what it looks like to truly be decided. This message will show to double down and what you will gain on the other side. Scripture References: Revelation 3:16 NLT Joshua 24:15 NLT Matthew 6:24 NLT Ephesians 1:13-14 NLT Hebrews 12:1-2 NLT
WEEK 3: DO NOT DISTURB // THE DISTRACTION OF DEMANDS: CARRY WHAT COUNTS // PASTOR AMBERLY BELL Life can feel like we're being pulled in 10 different directions. In a demand-driven world, our attention has become divided. In Week 3 of the Do Not Disturb Series, Pastor Amberly clearly shows us how the many different demands of life have become distractions. With all that we are carrying, we must carry what counts! In order to do that we must put our phone down, practice focus and protect our priority. If you have felt distracted by life, this is the message for you! Scripture References: Luke 10:38-42 NIV Matthew 22:36-39 NIV Matthew 11:28-30 NIV
We all have to fight for focus because distractions are present all around us. While our lives feel like they are being pulled apart in different directions, Jesus’ dream is for us to be whole, not fragmented, but focused. In Week 2 of the Do Not Disturb Series, Pastor Ty Lanphere shared an incredible message of how distractions can cause us to drift. Drifting can look like taking action or sometimes not doing anything at all - which is still doing something! This message reminded us to keep our eyes focused on the main thing, Jesus. When distractions meet us, it can end with a decision and our devotion. Scripture References: Philemon 1:23-24 NLT Colossians 4:14 NLT 2 Timothy 4:9-10 NLT Galatians 4 Galatians 5:16 NLT Hebrews 2:1 ESV
Disappointments in life will happen and the enemy’s goal is for us to disconnect from God in those moments. But God is near to the brokenhearted! In Week 1 of the ‘Do Not Disturb’ Series, Pastor Brie openly shared her story of losing her son Ace after 14 days of him being born. Through this experience, she taught us that we should know God’s name, nature and nearness in the midst of disappointment. We pray this message gives you a fresh perspective to know that we can hold heartbreak and hope at the same time. Scripture References Proverbs 18:10 NLT 1 John 4:8b NLT Isaiah 45:3 NLT Psalms 34:18 NLT Hebrews 4:14-16 NIV
WEEK 8: GOD CHOSE YOU// IT HAD TO BE THE BLOOD // PASTOR CHARLES METCALF Sometimes we care for things based on what we think they’re worth. But how would you respond if you truly understood the cost of God choosing you? In the final week of the God Chose You series, Pastor Charles Metcalf walks us through the price Jesus paid for our lives through His blood. Without it, we’d still be required to make daily sacrifices, follow every law to perfection and live separated from direct access to God. But because of the blood, we have grace, access, and freedom. If you’re ready to understand the purpose, promise, and power of the Blood that purchased your life, this message is for you.Don’t miss next week as we kick off our brand-new sermon series: Do Not Disturb. Scripture References: Hebrews 10:1-4 NLT Hebrews 9:11-12 NLT John 2:1-2 NLT 1 John 4:9-16 NLT Genesis 3:11 NLT
Have you ever been afraid to try? Have you ever even been afraid to die? In Week 7 of the God Chose You series, Pastor Charles Metcalf poses the question of what if the fear of death isn’t really as powerful as your fear of truly living? One of the bravest things we can do is not die for Jesus, but live for Him daily and shift the community around us. We pray this message causes you to seek the courage and boldness you need to live like you have nothing to lose. Scripture References: Philippians 1:20-24 NLT Hebrews 2:14-15 NLT Acts 5:29-36 NLT
WEEK 6: GOD CHOSE YOU// GRATEFUL THEY KEPT ME GRATEFUL THEY LEFT ME// PASTOR CHARLES METCALF Depending on where we are in life, we can have a tendency to either glorify or vilify past and present friendships. But no matter what we’ve experienced, there’s always space to remain grateful for those who have stayed and for those who are no longer in our lives. In Week 6 of God Chose Me, Pastor Charles Metcalf encourages us to find the gift in every friendship we’ve encountered, no matter how long or brief it was. In this message, you’ll discover the value of showing gratitude for the people who have championed you, challenged you, and changed you. We pray this message brings healing from past hurts and gives you the courage to build healthy, life-giving friendships moving forward. Scripture References: Philippians 1:3-5 NIV Genesis 50:20-21 AMP Acts 9:10-19 NLT Acts 9:26-27 NLT Galatians 2:11-14 NLT Acts 15:36-40 NLT
7/13/25 WEEK 5: GOD CHOSE YOU// WHAT IF I’M AN IMPOSTER? // PASTOR CHARLES METCALF Have you ever felt like an imposter? In Week 5 of the God Chose You series, Pastor Charles Metcalf tackles the real and raw feeling of imposter syndrome, the fear that whispers you’re not enough, not qualified, and don’t belong. But what if the very thing you’re doubting is the proof that God did choose you? Pastor Charles shares how honesty is the only answer to imposter syndrome and leads us to the truth that no matter what your insecurity says, God still chose you. This message will encourage you to embrace the fire, stand firm under pressure, and walk boldly in the transformation God has already started in you. Scripture References: Luke 22:33 NLT Luke 22:60-62 NLT Galatians 1:15-17 NLT
God chose you, the question is, who will you choose to be? After you accept the freedom of “God chose me”, you still have to decide who you are going to be. In Week 4 of the God Chose You series, Pastor Charles reminds us that in order to become who God called us to be, we will have to become someone different. This is not a license to do whatever we want to do but the freedom to not be a slave to our impulses but have the opportunity to follow Jesus. By the end of this message you will learn the faith, fight and focus you need to become the better you. Scripture References Romans 6:15-23 NLT Romans 6:16 TPT Galatians 5:1 NLT
6/29/25 WEEK 3: GOD CHOSE YOU// WHY ME? // PASTOR CHARLES METCALF Once you realize God Chose You, it’s natural to wonder, “Why me?” In Week 3 of the God Chose You series, Pastor Charles Metcalf helps us lean into that question and discover that God’s choice is always intentional. While we may never fully grasp why God chose us, we can trust that it’s about more than just us, it’s about legacy. There are people in your family line, your future, and your purpose who are depending on your “yes.” We pray this message gives you the courage to keep showing up, keep saying yes, and keep walking in the calling God has placed on your life. Scripture References: Mark 15:6-21 NLT 1 Corinthians 1:26-29 NLT Romans 16:11-13 NLT
6.22.25 WEEK 2: GOD CHOSE YOU// I WILL NOT FOLD // PASTOR CHARLES METCALF Could it be that you know God chose you, but you still want others to choose you too? In Week 2 of the God Chose You series, Pastor Charles Metcalf takes us to Paul’s letter in Galatians, where he boldly says, “If I were trying to please people, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.” Are you still searching for affirmation from others? This message uncovers the trap of people-pleasing and shows us how to break free through the right people, the right perspective, and the right purpose. We pray this word releases you from the pressure to be chosen by people—and helps you walk boldly in who God has already called you to be. Scripture References: John 12:37-43 NLT Galatians 1:10 NLT
The Bible is the story of God choosing people at the right time. In Week 1 of our God Chose You series, Pastor Charles Metcalf reminds us that God didn’t just choose us on purpose—He chose us on time. And that time is now.Even when it feels slow or still, God’s timing is always intentional. While you’re waiting on what He promised, Pastor Charles encourages us to wrestle with three key questions that will shape who we’re becoming in the meantime. This message will challenge you to let go of your timeline and trust God’s appointed time.

WEEK 6: MUSTARD: The Seed That Can Change Everything // BIG STEPPA The time for you to lead is NOW. After Moses’ death, Joshua didn’t just inherit a position—he received a promise. “Wherever you set your foot, I’ve already given it to you.” But to walk in it, Joshua had to rise up and step out. He had to become a BIG STEPPA. In Week 6 of the Mustard Series, Pastor Michael Todd shows us what it looks like to walk with bold faith while letting God lead every step. This message will teach you how to See Big, Talk Big, Execute Big, and Pace for Big. Scripture References: Joshua 1:1-3 NLT Romans 12:6-18 NLT Joshua 1:4-11 NLT Matthew 14:22-33 NLT Proverbs 11:14 NKJV
WEEK 5: MUSTARD: The Seed That Can Change Everything // Faith for Miracles Miracles can happen in you, with you and for you. Do you have faith for it? In Week 5 of our sermon series, MUSTARD: The Seed That Can Change Anything, Pastor Mike defines what a miracle is and encourages us to embrace the mystery of God. Many Believers have experienced roadblocks that have hindered their faith to believe God for the impossible. This message will teach you four things you must disconnect from to see a miracle. We believe this message will stir you up to believe in the miraculous! Scripture References: Mark 16:17-18 NLT Luke 18:27 NLT Matthew 9:27-31 NLT Matthew 8:1-4 NLT John 9:7 NLT Mark 8:23 NLT Luke 17:14 NLT Matthew 13:54-58 NLT Mark 3:1-6 NLT Acts 9:10-19 NIV
WEEK 4: MUSTARD: The Seed That Can Change Everything // The Tragedy of Trying - What to Do When Your Faith is Fatigued Have you ever stopped using your faith because it didn’t work the last time you tried? Maybe you felt embarrassed, disappointed, or exposed—and instead of trying again, you shut faith down altogether. In Week 4 of our series MUSTARD: The Seed That Can Change Everything, Pastor Mike Todd takes us to Matthew 17, where the disciples failed to cast out a demon, and Jesus used the moment to grow their faith. This message uncovers how we often avoid embarrassment, correction, exposed insufficiencies, the requirements for growth, and disappointment when walking out in faith again. But the truth is, these are the exact places God wants to develop our faith. If your faith has been sitting on the sidelines, it's time to get back in the game. This message will challenge you to put your faith to work again. Scripture References: Matthew 17:14-20 AMP Hebrews 12:6 NIV
Have you ever believed in God but struggled to trust Him? In Week 3 of our series MUSTARD: The Seed That Can Change Everything, Pastor Charles Metcalf teaches on the tension between belief, trust and faith— and how we can wrestle with each one individually and collectively. From the story in Mark 9, we learn that faith isn’t just certainty — it also requires surrender. In this message, you’ll learn the 3 things to do when you’re struggling with your faith: Admit your doubts, Ask for help, and Act anyway. We pray this message helps you uncover your challenges and get a renewed faith in God. Scripture References: Matthew 2:18 NLT
In Week 2 of our brand new series, MUSTARD: The Seed That Can Change Everything, Pastor Mike teaches us about Audacious Faith — the kind of faith that doesn’t play it safe. Somewhere along the way, we’ve been taught to have faith that makes sense to our family, our finances, and our future plans. But audacious faith places a demand on what God has already deposited.You don’t need permission to walk in authority — Jesus already transferred it to you. Now it’s time to activate it.If you’re ready to shift atmospheres, challenge average, and walk with boldness, bold, this message is for you. Scripture References Matthew 28:18 NLT Luke 10:19 NLT 2 Peter 1:3 NLT James 2:26 NKJV Romans 12:3 NLT Deuteronomy 32:30 NLT Matthew 5:14-16 MSG Acts 17:6 NKJV
Your future is being created by your faith today. The question is—what are you creating with it? In Week 1 of our brand new series, MUSTARD: The Seed That Can Change Everything, Pastor Michael Todd teaches us on 5 Things to Not Waste Our Faith On. Oftentimes, we have used our faith for things discipline, integrity and even a budget could have handled. This message will challenge you to use your faith the way God intended—to walk in obedience and unlock everything He has for you! Scripture References Hebrews 11:3 NLT Ephesians 2:8-9 NIV Hebrews 11:6 NKJV Hebrews 11:1 KJV 1 Corinthians 13:13 NIV

Money isn’t everything, but it is something! What does money mean to you? In the last week of our sermon series, WICKED: The Worship of Wealth, Pastor Charles had us take a hard look at our history and relationship with finances. He guided us through 3 ways to be healthier with our money and encouraged us to be truthful about where we are and to trust God in this area. We pray this message not only teaches you how to be a better financial steward but also helps you uncover True Riches! Scripture References: Luke 16:10-13 NIV 2 Corinthians 4:5-7 NKJV
Throughout the Bible, God works through the principle of multiplication—and one of the clearest pictures of that is when Jesus took five loaves and two fish, blessed them, broke them, and fed thousands. In Week 4 of WICKED: The Worship of Wealth, Pastor Michael Todd breaks down what we can learn from this miracle and how it applies to our finances today. This message isn’t just about giving—it’s about graduating from the fundamentals into the fun of generosity. Because in the Kingdom, multiplication only happens when we release what’s in our hands. If you’re ready to go from just surviving to living a multiplied life—this message is for you! Scripture References: Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV Matthew 5:17 NLT Matthew 23:23 NLT Acts 20:35 NLT Luke 9:10-17 NKJV Proverbs 14:23 NLT Colossians 3:23-24 NIV Romans 13:8 NLT 2 Corinthians 9:7 NLT Luke 21:1-4 NLT Matthew 5:14-16 MSG Proverbs 3:5-6 NIV
God has given us the blueprint for living a life of faith, but sometimes we get caught up playing the wrong game. In Week 3 of WICKED: The Worship of Wealth, Pastor Michael Todd challenged us to stop hating the player and start changing the game by focusing on God’s Starting 5—Prayer, Bible Reading, Gathering, Fasting, and Giving. These practices keep us aligned with God’s purpose and equipped for spiritual battles. Pastor Michael reminded us that the game of life isn’t just warm-ups—it’s warfare. We can’t overcome without opposition, and each of these five spiritual practices faces resistance: independence, ignorance, isolation, idolatry, and immaturity. By fixing our eyes on Jesus and committing to God’s game plan, we can experience the joy and freedom that come from living a faith-filled life. Scripture References: Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV Proverbs 3:9-10 NIV James 5:16 KJV Philippian 4:6-7 NLT 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV Acts 2:42-44 NIV Matthew 7:24-27 ESV
God wants to give us His heart on finances, wealth, and generosity. Every time we experience financial increase, we’re taking an open-book test and God has already given us the answers. In Week 2 of WICKED: The Worship of Wealth, Pastor Michael Todd broke down tithing as a biblical principle and practice established by God of returning the first 10% of our increase back to God through the local church. He debunked myths and misteachings around giving and reminded us that tithing isn’t about pressure, it’s about honoring God. This message speaks to the real feelings many believers have about tithing and reveals the fun and freedom that come with trusting God in this area.

Most of us have been distracted by money instead of being directed by God. Whether you’re worried about how much you have or how much you don’t, this message is going to help you shift your focus and see money the way God does. In Week 1 of the WICKED: The Worship of Wealth Sermon Series, Pastor Michael Todd broke down how money is simply a tool and it will reveal your heart and remind you who you really are. As we studied the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 6, we learned how worshipping wealth and wasting wealth are both wicked. We pray this message helps you recognize your relationship with money and seek to handle your finances with God’s wisdom. Scripture References Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV Proverbs 11:24-26 MSG Matthew 6:19-24 NIV Matthew 25:19-30 NLT Deuteronomy 15:7-9 NKJV Deuteronomy 15:10-11 NKJV
Your distraction isn’t after your life—it’s after your vision. In Week 8 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael Todd challenged us with a question: Is your distraction playing you? Some of us have become so comfortable with our distractions that we don’t even realize they’re draining our strength. Like Samson, we’ve nurtured what was meant to conquer us, and by the time we wake up, it’s already taken more than we ever intended to give. It’s time to wake up and break free. We pray this message helps you identify the exits of distraction and realign your focus on what God has for you in this season! Scripture References Matthew 25:25-26 BSB Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV Judges 16:17-22 NLT Judges 16:28-30 NLT
Distraction doesn’t always come in the form of something obvious—it can be hidden in the details. In Week 7 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael Todd showed us how focusing too much on the details can pull us away from trusting God’s process.Using the journey of the Israelites in Exodus 13-16, we saw how God led them the long way on purpose, not as punishment, but for development. Sometimes, what feels like a detour is actually part of God’s divine design. But when we fixate on the details of drought, desire, or delay, we can easily become distracted from His direction. How many details do you need before you obey?We pray this message helps you shift from distraction to devotion and trust that when God leads, He provides. Scripture References Hebrews 12:1-2 NLT Exodus 13:17-22 NLT Exodus 15:22-24 NLT Exodus 16:2-5 NLT Exodus 32:1 NLT
What’s Fueling Your Focus? In Week 6 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Charles Metcalf challenged us to examine what’s driving our focus—is it fear or faith? If we’re not careful, we can do the right thing with the wrong motive, and a focus fueled by fear will always shrink our future. But when our focus is fueled by faith, it grows in the direction of God’s purpose for us. In this message you will find out how to flip your focus by 3 simple steps so that your faith can grow. Scripture References Hebrews 12:1-2 NLT Matthew 38:1-6 NASB 1 Thessalonians 5:4-11 NIV 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 NIV
We often think distractions come from people, places, or things—but sometimes, the biggest distraction is what’s happening inside of us. In Week 5 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael exposed the distraction of comparison through the story of Saul and David. When insecurity takes over, even our allies can start looking like enemies. We pray this message helps you break free from insecurity, comparison, and fear—so you can walk boldly in the confidence of who God has called you to be! Scripture References: Hebrews 12:1-2 NLT 1 Samuel 18:5-15 NLT 1 Samuel 13:11-14 NLT
Are you dating with discernment or just delulu? In Week 4 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael broke down how Delilah repeatedly tried to distract Samson—while he stayed stuck in delusion. The real question is: Are we making room for our distractions? Have we gotten so deep in a relationship with them that we can’t even see what they’re stealing from us? We pray this message helps you recognize the traps of compromise and refocus on Godly commitments over temporary distractions. Scripture References Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV Judges 16:5-14 NLT
Double-mindedness keeps part of your life in the light while the other stays in the dark—but eventually, the side you feed the most will win. On this special Anniversary Sunday and Week 3 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael reminded us that we can’t fully embrace God’s promises while still clinging to the pleasures of our flesh. To overcome double-mindedness, we must stay devoted, disciplined, and defended by the people we surround ourselves with.We pray this message challenges you to reflect on your decisions and align your patterns with God’s will. Happy 26 years as a ministry & 10 years under the leadership of Pastor Michael Todd, TC Nation! Because of your YES, we get to keep representing God to the lost and found for transformation in Christ! Scripture References Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV Proverbs 4:7 NKJV James 1:8 KJV [References Double Minded scripture] Romans 6:1-2 NIV Luke 22:42 NKJV Hebrews 12:11-15 NLT Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 NIV
There’s always a door that leads to destruction. What doors have you left open that need to be shut? Pastor Michael masterfully taught on the importance of being self-aware and not in denial when it comes to the distractions in our life. When we couple distractions with denial we always end in destruction. We pray this message gives you clarity on what doors you need to shut so that you can be open to all the God has for you in this season! Scripture References Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV Judges 16:4-30 NLT Judges 14:5-9 NIV Romans 6:1-4 NLT
Anchored in our scripture of the year Hebrews 11:1-2, Pastor Michael reminded us that staying focused on Jesus is the key to overcoming distractions. Every distraction begins with a decision, and the first step to deliverance is recognizing that we have the power to accept distractions and choose God’s way of escape. Our decisions flow from our heart, to our minds and then to our hands. The more we dissect our decisions, the more we can change our destiny. We pray this message helps you to regain your focus and recognize how to put death to your distractions. Scripture References Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV 1 Corinthians 10:13 NLT Judges 13
Every year, we gather for a special service to hear the Word of the Year from our Pastor, Michael Todd, and this Vision Sunday was no different. While many think vision begins with what we see, Pastor Michael reminded us that true vision starts with what we hear. What you hear shapes what you see. Drawing from the story of Nehemiah, we learned how he not only rebuilt the walls but also carried a God-given burden. A vision from God is always fueled by a burden.We pray this message inspires you to seek God for the burden and vision He has called you to build. Don’t miss the full message as Pastor Mike builds on previous Words of the Year to unveil the 2025 Word of the Year! Scripture References Proverbs 29:18 NIV Proverbs 19:21 NIV Nehemiah 1:3-4a NIV Nehemiah 1:4 NIV Nehemiah 4:-4 NLT
As we step into 2025, Pastor Mike kicks off the year with a powerful message: RESET. Whether you're in a season of frustration, desperation, preparation, or revelation, this is your invitation to let God reset your mindset, old habits, and ideas. A reset starts with one decision—new decisions lead to deliverance, daily decisions lead to devotion, and Godly decisions lead to destiny. What’s the best way to reset? Through prayer.Join us for 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting, happening January 6th–26th. Together, we’ll fast corporately and pray daily at 6 PM CST, both online and in person. For more details, visit: https://transformchurch.us/21-days-of-prayer-fasting/We can’t wait to see you next Sunday for Vision Sunday, when Pastor Michael will reveal the Word of the Year for 2025! Scripture References: Proverbs 26:11 NLT Hebrews 12:12-13 NLT Matthew 10:14 NLT Isaiah 43:18-25 NLT Luke 15:11-24 NLT Matthew 6:9-13 NLT
During the holiday season, the world often feels full of stress and chaos. But what if we could trade our chaos for peace? In Week 12 of the Receipts: The Proof is in the Fruit sermon series, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that peace isn’t just a feeling—it’s a person, and His name is Jesus. We lose our peace only when we disconnect from Him. Our prayer is that this message inspires you to prioritize His presence, so you can not only receive peace this season but share it with those around you. Scripture References: Galatians 5:22-23 NLT John 3:16 NLT John 10:10 NIV Isaiah 9:6 NIV John 14:27 TPT Philippians 4:4-7 ESV John 8:12 ESV
Welcome to Week 11 of the RECEIPTS series! This week’s message, "I Don’t Love You Like That," challenges us to redefine love through the lens of God's Word. Pastor Michael Todd demonstrated what we sound like when we operate with gifts without God’s love working in us - we are simply a noisy cymbal. When we allow love to be the beat of what we do, people can experience all the fruit of the spirit from us. Scripture References: John 15:4 NLT Galatians 5:22-23 NLT Matthew 22:36-40 NLT 1 Corinthians 13:1-33 NLT John 3:16 NLT
In Week 10 of the Receipts series, Pastor Michael taught a powerful message on self-control. True self-control is not self-empowered—it’s a fruit of the Spirit. The fight of our lives is between sin control and Spirit control. Every day, we’re in a battle between letting our flesh lead or letting Holy Spirit guide us. The choices we make either feed our faith or feed our fear. We pray this message causes you to cultivate the fruit of self-control. Scripture References: Galatians 5:22-23 NLT Proverbs 25:28 NLT 2 Timothy 1:7 NKJV Proverbs 16:32 NLT Galatians 5:17 NLT Galatians 5:25 NLT
Many of us profess to be Christians, but truly walking in the fruit of the Spirit means reflecting Christ-like behavior in our actions. Pastor Mike explained the critical difference between being nice and being kind. Kindness, as a fruit of the Spirit, goes beyond surface-level niceness; it stems from a compassionate and selfless heart posture. We pray this message renews your understanding of kindness and inspires you to live out this new revelation in your daily life. Scripture References: Galatians 5:22-23 NLT Romans 12:17-20 NKJV 2 Timothy 3:1-5 NKJV Genesis 1:27 NIV Luke 10:30-32 NLT Luke 10:33-37 NLT Titus 3:3-5 NLT
For week 8 of our series Receipts, we were joined by Tim Ross! He brought a powerful word on the importance of gentleness in our lives. Make sure you listen for a life-changing message!

We did not return to the regularly scheduled programming this morning when the Holy Spirit began to move! We were instructed to slow down and take the time to listen to our brothers and sisters. We were instructed to treat each other with compassion. Just like Jesus sat with unlikely friends, we are invited to reach across the aisle and love with humility. We are invited to Stop It! Shut Up! Sit Down! and Be Humble. If you’re ready for v4 Conference, text CONFERENCE to 828282 or visit transformchurch.us/v4 for updates!
In Week 6 of the Receipts Sermon Series, Pastor Michael taught on the fruit of the Spirit: faithfulness. Inspired by Dr. Seuss’s ‘Horton Hatches the Egg’, where Horton the elephant stays true to his word against all odds, we’re challenged to examine our own faithfulness to God. Pastor Michael shares that true faithfulness is a response to God’s unwavering commitment to us, not a reaction based on fear, feelings, or force. Through the Holy Spirit, we can cultivate faithfulness that reflects God’s love and serves as nourishment to others. This message will encourage you to discover what fuels your faithfulness and surrender your heart to a faithfulness that is both free and fruitful. Scripture References: Galatians 5:22-23 ESV 2 Timothy 2:13 NLT Deuteronomy 7:9 NLT 1 John 1:9 NLT 1 Corinthians 10:13 NLT Matthew 25:23 NLT
Can you count it all joy, even in difficult situations? Are the people around you on Team Joy or Team Judgment? In Week 5 of the Receipts Series, Pastor Michael taught us how to identify the "joy jackers" in our lives—those people and things that try to pull us down to their level of discomfort. This message is a powerful reminder that Jesus is our true source of joy, a joy that can’t be suppressed by any situation. Scripture References: Galatians 5:22-23 ESV Nehemiah 8:10 NIV Job 38:1-4 NLT James 1:2-4 NKJV
God knew we needed strength, so He gave us joy through the Holy Spirit! While happiness is situational and shallow, the joy that the Lord gives is eternal and rooted in salvation. Each day, we must choose whether we will clothe ourselves in joy. Living IN-JOY enables us to truly enjoy life. Our prayer is that this message inspires you to shed the garment of judgment and live the joy of the Lord. Scripture References: Galatians 5:22-23 ESV Psalm 51:10-12 NIV Nehemiah 8:10 NIV Psalm 16:11 NIV
When we hear the word "goodness," we often try to define it by our own standards. However, in Greek, goodness means "to do good," and it’s more than just an action—it’s an attitude and an attribute that reflects God's nature. Only God can set the true standard of goodness because He is good. In Week 3 of the Receipts Sermon Series, Pastor Mike teaches that our goodness is the evidence of a relationship with God through the Holy Spirit. We hope this message inspires you to examine your motives and live out God’s goodness in all you do! Scripture References: Galatians 5:22-23 ESV Genesis 1:3-4 NLT Psalms 145:3 KJV Exodus 33:18-20 NLT Matthew 25:21 NLT Romans 7:15-25 NIV Galatians 6:10 KJV Psalms 23:6 KJV
There’s one fruit of the Spirit that is essential for all the others to truly flourish in our lives—patience. In Week 2 of The Receipts sermon series, Pastor Mike delivered a powerful message on the importance of patience. While we often view patience as punishment, what if we began to see it as a pleasure? As we develop this fruit, we must learn to trust God's process and let Him cook!. We pray that this message encourages you to embrace the value of waiting and growing in the fruit of patience. Join Transformation Church for our Sunday experience. Plug into community, engage in live worship with Transformation Worship, & hear a powerful word from God.
Do you have receipts? The Bible says that the fruit of the Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self-Control. But can we produce receipts of those fruits in our lives? Today’s sermon encourages us to spend time in God’s Presence and make sure that his spirit is bearing healthy, ripe fruit in our lives. Scripture References: Matthew 7:16 Ephesians 2:8-9 Romans 8:14 Galatians 5:22

In Week 6 of the Word of God Sermon Series, Pastor Charles walked us through Galatians 6 and taught us what to do when we feel empty. Sometime life circumstances and comparison can cause us to feel like we’ve run dry. Our soul was meant to only be fulfilled by Christ. If you’re in a place of feeling empty, serve, sow and take the next step that God is requiring of you. Scripture References: Galatians 6:1-5 NLT Galatians 5:26 NIV
We will always face an internal battle between our spirit and flesh. In Week 5 of the The Word of God series, Pastor Charles taught us how to win the battle with the power of God. If you want to beat yourself in the fight, you must flee the stupid, feel the Spirit and fix your thoughts. We hope this message encourages you, reminding you that God has given you the strength to become the best version of yourself. Scripture References: Galatians 5:16-17 NLT Galatians 5:1 NIV Romans 7:8-25 MSG 2 Timothy 2:22 MSG Philippians 4:8-9MSG Galatians 5:16-23 MSG
Are you staying in a child’s place? Pastor Roosevelt Stewart encouraged us to fully embrace our identity as children of God rather than children of the Law. Through our study of Galatians chapter 4, we were reminded of Jesus' sacrifice, which allows us to share in God’s sonship. To remain in the kingdom with the heart of a child, we must hold on to our inheritance, imagination, and innocence. We pray this message serves as a reminder of who you truly are and inspires you to use your faith to envision all that God has in store for your life! Scripture References: Galatians 4:1-7 NKJV Galatians 4:31 NKJV Romans 10:9 NKJV Mark 11:23-24 NKJV Hebrews 11:1 NKJV
Have you ever felt like you were held in custody by confusion? In Week 3 of The Word of God Series, Dr. Joel Tudman walked us through Galatians 3, where Paul corrected the church of Galatia for preaching the law when Christ had given us freedom through fulfilling the Word. We must be careful of whom we give our ear to, prioritize our relationship with God, and understand we have an unstoppable promise from Him. We pray this message encourages you to know God’s Word for yourself and reminds you of the grace and freedom we have in Christ! Scripture References: Galatians 3:1:29 ESV Luke 4:24-25 ESV Mark 4:24-25 AMPC
Are you making space for more people at your table? In Week 2 of the Word of God series, we explored Galatians 2, where Paul confronts Peter for distancing himself from the Gentiles when his Jewish peers were present. Pastor Charles reminds us that, despite our differences, we can create room in our hearts and homes for others. He encourages us to set our tables by preparing for those who will come, being fully present with them, and praying for their needs. Scripture References: Galatians 2:1-21 NLT
Our Campus Pastor, Charles Metcalf, launched a new sermon series titled "The Word of God: The Book of Galatians." Over the next five weeks, we'll dive deeper in the Book of Galatians. Today’s message highlights why we can believe the Bible and reminds us that we are chosen through Paul’s teaching to the church. We pray this series inspires a deeper desire to know God through His Word. Scripture References Isaiah 40:8 ESV Matthew 7:24-27 ESV 2 Timothy 3:16 NLT Galatians 1:1-24 NLT John 1:1-5 NLTJohn 1:14 NLT
WEEK 4: FRIENDS - PASTOR LYLE PHILLIPS Pastor Lyle Phillips delivered a powerful message from 1 Samuel 1:1-20, using Hannah’s story to illustrate the theme of desperation. Despite being loved, Hannah felt barren and prayed desperately for a child, especially in comparison to her fruitful counterpart, Peninnah. Pastor Lyle emphasized that in times of desperation, we may face distractions such as competition, comparison, well-meaning people, and even a double portion, but true desperation leads to breakthroughs when we keep pursuing God. This desperation can drive us closer to God, resulting in blessings that should enhance our fellowship with Him, not diminish it. We pray this message reminds us to maintain our fervor and recognize the blessings that come from desperately pursuing God. Scripture References 1 Samuel 1:1-20 ESV
Understanding God's will can be simpler than we think. Dr. Anita Phillips teaches that pain and distress don't always mean something isn't His will. Like Gideon, we often seek constant signs due to fear and imposter syndrome. However, these signs won't address the deeper issues in our hearts. Instead, we should let God transform us internally and seek His wisdom, especially for big decisions, as wisdom guides us better than signs. We need maturity and courage to act on what we already know is right, just as Jesus did in the garden. By asking for wisdom, strength, and courage, we grow in faith and understanding, progressing from spiritual "milk" to "meat," which fosters true spiritual growth and alignment with God's plans.

Prayer is essential to become acquainted with the right voice to guide you in helpless times. Are there moods, spirits, and ideas you've accepted that God needs to check? We encourage you to bring them before God, not by your might or your power, but by God's Spirit in which deliverance comes.

Oftentimes we expect damage to come from our own unfortunate experiences, decisions we’ve made, or situations that harmed us. However, sometimes our damage can come from the backside of a blessing. In Week 8 of the Damaged but Not Destroyed series, Dr. Dharius Daniel masterfully expounds upon the story of Jonah. While Jonah was blessed to be a Prophet, trusted to carry God’s messages, he found himself running from an assignment. He got himself into a problem that only God could get him out of. In God’s grace, He used Jonah’s mistake as transportation into his future. If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in a problem or been in a space of intentional disobedience, we pray this message guides you toward God’s redemption!

He guides us in identifying the destructive sin cycles or patterns that often lead to a product inconsistent with God's promises. However, we are reminded that God has given us the power to transform these patterns.As Jacob wrestled with God, we know that confronting these patterns might require a struggle. Yet, this wrestling can ultimately lead to experiencing God's blessings and change the trajectory of our future. The message encourages us to acknowledge the patterns in our lives, encouraging us to align with God's unchanging patterns, which always yield a great reward.

Do you want to be made whole? In Week 4 of the Damaged but Not Destroyed Series, Pastor Mike asks us the same question that Jesus asked the lame man in John 5. Oftentimes our damage causes us to answer God’s calling with excuses and explanations however, the only reasonable response is “Yes Lord.” Pastor Mike teaches us 4 Things to do Between Our Yes & Our Next. We pray this message encourages your faith to STAND UP, take up your mat and walk in your healing. Scripture References: John 5:1-9 NLT Hebrews 11:1 KJV Hebrews 12:11 NLT 2 Corinthians 9:10 NKJV

In Week 1 of the Damaged but Not Destroyed Series, Pastor Mike challenges a common cultural belief that discourages honesty, suggesting that those who speak the truth might suffer harm. Drawing on the childhood saying, "Snitches get stitches," he encourages a different perspective. This message will cause you to reframe this idea, emphasizing that when we are honest and transparent about our shortcomings, it allows God to bring healing to the areas where we've fallen apart. He reminds us that God doesn't bless who we pretend to be but who we really are. We pray this message gives you the courage you need to honestly share where you are so that Jesus can come and make you whole.

Using the journey of the Apostle Paul’s experience in navigating his partnerships with Silas and Barnabas, this story gives us valuable keys. Pastor Mike outlines several ways we can discern the departure of a partnership: when the season changes, we sense the same cycle persists, when storm is coming, or simply if Holy Spirit says go.

Could it be possible that we don’t always know when we are spiritually asleep? Pastor Robert Madu walked us through the story of Eutychus falling from a window during one of Apostle Paul's teachings. Not only does this story show us the danger of sitting near open windows (symbolizing exposure to sin), it shows us that we need people in our lives who will nudge us when we get weary.

Holy rebels are willing to take the risk of relationships. In the final week of the Holy Rebellion series, Pastor Charles reminded us of our need for community.

In today’s culture, we have become obsessed with knowing our purpose. In Week 3 of the Holy Rebellion series, Pastor Charles challenges us with this question - What good is it to know your purpose if you don’t have power? We are not the source of our own power.

As we navigate through our personal journey of Holy Rebellion, may this message empower us to refuse bitterness and choose to be a blessing.

Pastor Charles kicks off Week 1 of the new sermon series, “Holy Rebellion: The Kingdom is Here” by reminding us that we were not made to be regular but to rebel against the status quo and what culture has dictated. Whether your first word was “no” or you decided that you wouldn’t follow the traumatic patterns of your childhood, we are all rebels. The enemy's biggest goal is to use SHAME to convince REBELS that they are REGULAR so they end up RETREATING. Allow this message to ignite your faith, remove shame from your name and follow the greatest rebel we know, Jesus. You were created with the purpose & the power to stand up and stand out!

Have you ever made a bad decision that you had to deal with the consequences of? Have you ever made a mistake that you felt married to for the rest of your life? In Week 2 of our H.O.T. Girl Summer Series, Pastor Katy Kazadi did a masterful teaching on the story of David, Nabal and Abigail which resulted in “A Holy Divorce”. As you listen to this message of 1 Samuel 25, you will find how God can not only intervene before we make a detrimental decision but he can also help us divorce ourselves from past mistakes and failures and restore us. Scripture References 1 Samuel 25:1-2 NLT 1 Samuel 25:3 NIV 1 Samuel 25:4-44 NLT Revelations 12:10-11 NIV
Dr. Jackie Greene kicks off our 1st Week of H.O.T. Girl Summer, a sermon series dedicated to bringing a month of Women speakers to share a Humble, Open, and Transparent message for all the family to hear! In this message, The Pain of First, we are reminded of all who came first in the Bible and how there are many things that God called us to be the first in, in our family. Oftentimes on the flipside of being first, there comes pain like being rejected, misunderstood and forming new habits. When we choose to embrace our assignment, recognize the pains that have hindered us, God will heal us and allow us to take our rightful place as FIRST. Scripture References Genesis 45:1-8 NLT Romans 12:6-9 NLT Deuteronomy 28:13 NLT Genesis 37:3 NLT Genesis 37:5-9 NLT Psalm 84:11 NIV Genesis 39:21 NLT Genesis 50:20 NLT
Join us this week as we wrap up the Worship on the Word series with a sermon titled "You Are Doing Good… AND". Pastor Charles teaches us that even amidst difficulties, we can acknowledge our growth and continue to aim for better.We're challenged to understand God in His complexity: relaxed AND righteous, simple AND sovereign, immediate AND infinite. Amid these revelations, we're encouraged to adopt a daily practice of gratitude, scripture reflection, and prayer.We pray that this sermon uplifts you, reminding you that you're doing good, AND there's still more to strive for in your spiritual journey. Scripture References John 10:10 NIV Genesis 1:10 NIV Genesis 1:12 NIV Genesis 1:16b-18 NIV Philippians 2:13 NLT Revelation 4:11 ESV Jeremiah 29:13 ESV Psalm 147:5 NASB Psalm 119:137 NKJV Psalm 145:17 BSB Isaiah 46:13 NIV John 3:16 KJV Colossians 1:16-17 ESV John 1:1-5;14 NKJV Hebrews 4:15 ESV 1 Samuel 2:2 ESV Luke 13:10-13 NIV 2 Peter 3:8 NAB Isaiah 55:8-9 NKJV Colossians 1:16-17 ESV Matthew 7:24-29 NKJV
Worship is more than a practice; it's a weapon. This week Pastor Travis Greene helps us dive into the crucial role of worship and how a life dedicated to it shapes our character as part of our Worship On The Word series.Based on Psalms 34:1-8 and 1 Samuel 21:9-15, Pastor Travis emphasizes the importance of choosing the right sources of nourishment, physically and spiritually, as these determine the weapons we wield in life's battles. It reminds us that the truest affirmation of God’s trust in us comes from opposition, not opportunity, and our anointing is evident not in our skills, but in our scars. We pray this message helps you to be a "decided worshipper" steadfast in faith, regardless of your circumstances. Scripture References Psalms 34:1-8 ESV Psalms 34:1 ESV 1 Samuel 21:9-15 MSG Psalm 23:5 NIV 2 Kings 3:15 NKJV
We all have access to the covering of the Most High God but we must accept being covered. Our protection comes from proximity to God. We need more than a scripture every Sunday or listening to our favorite Christian artist when times get hard. Pastor Mike teaches us that there is shelter under the Most High God. When we create a dedicated space to run to him, we will find safety and everything we need. We pray that after listening to this message you find a place to dwell with Him! Scripture References Malachi 3:6 KJV Psalms 7:17 NASB Psalms 97:9 NASB Genesis 14:18-20 NASB Psalms 91:1 ESV John 14:6 NIV Philippians 2:10-11 NKJV Romans 5:12-21 NLT Romans 6:1-4 NLT
Have you ever been in a place of believing God for a miracle? Miracles do not have a formula, they simply require faith! In order to have faith, we must have hope. Because miracles start with hope, the enemy tries his best to discourage us in that area. We pray that this message builds your hope to fuel expectation and anticipation to have the mindset of a miracle. Scripture References Deuteronomy 29:29 ESV Hebrews 11:1 KJV Zechariah 9:12 KJV Mark 16:17-18 NKJV Matthew 17:20 NKJV Mark 5:25-34 NLT Mark 5:28 NLT Mark 5:27 NLT Mark 5:35-36 NLT
This week, Pastor Mike presents a stirring message: "I WILL DO IT [HERE]" as part of our ongoing Worship on the Word series. Challenging the notion that worship is a remote act, he encourages us to recognize that our present moment, our [here] is Holy. We learn that obedience to God isn't conditional on our feelings; it's an unequivocal commitment to His will. This sermon dissects the battle of the three wills—My Will, I Will, and His Will. He explains that our worship is expressed in our obedience and faithful walk towards God's purpose, even when we can't foresee the outcome. Furthermore, he challenges us to align our service with our worship, emphasizing that our acts of service must extend beyond our immediate circles. Join us in this transformative journey, as we learn to say "I WILL DO IT [HERE]," activating God's will in our lives.
Can you worship God if your circumstances are not ideal? Many times we say “I won’t” if our job is stressful, our relationships aren’t how we want them to be, we are offended, or when we don’t understand what God is doing. It takes faith to believe in our situation or our God. In this message, Pastor Mike teaches us how to say, “I will when I don’t want to.” Worship is our Love EXPRESSED to God as a response to His grace towards us. We pray this message helps give you encouragement to bless the Lord at ALL times. Scripture References Isaiah 40:31 ESV Proverbs 18:21 NKJV 2 Corinthians 5:18-20 NLT Romans 5:8 NIV Romans 12:1 NIV Psalms 34:1-3 NKJV Isaiah 29:13 NIV
Worship is our love expressed to God as a response to His grace towards us. In the first week of our Worship on the Word series, Pastor Mike helps us understand that worship is more than a slow song; it’s about our hearts and how we live our life. As we worship, we may recognize that there are some holes in our hearts that have caused us to leak out the love that God has given us. Yet in His presence, He gives us a new heart so that we can operate out of the overflow of His love. This message helps us to understand why we worship, how it starts with love, and why we can run to worship in our vulnerability. Scripture References Proverbs 4:7 NKJV Matthew 22:37-38 NLT John 3:16 NIV Deuteronomy 30:6 NLT 2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT Philippians 1:9 NLT Ephesians 6:16 NLT 2 Thessalonians 3: 3 NLT Psalm 91:1-2 NLT 1 Corinthians 13:6-8 NIV Psalms 119:9 NIV
In Week 4 of the KingNUMB series, Pastor Brie shared a powerful message that caused us to examine our hearts. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from the presence of God, this message is for you! Sometimes the effect of our busyness, schedules, plans, grief, and loss can get in the way of being present with God’s presence. In this message, we take time to meditate on our blessings, brokenness, and what we have to give. We believe you will have the opportunity to ignite your faith and feel God burn within you again. Scripture References: Luke 24:13-34 NLT
Pastor Tim Ross walks us through the story of the prodigal son. Sometimes being numb to your current reality can cause you to make decisions that are outside of God’s will. While the youngest son was outside of his father’s presence, he squandered his money and found himself working amongst pigs. Sin always takes you farther than you planned. In the midst of being in the pig stye, the youngest son came to his senses. In repentance, he ran back to his father’s house and was greeted with a party only to be met by a brother who was numb himself. What this message teaches us is that there can be 2 extremes of being numb - for some of us, we have sinned and can come back to our senses, for others we have to be careful to not allow our outward “perfection” to make us numb to our inward imperfections. Scripture References: Luke 15:11 - 32 NLT
There are times in our walk with God when we can become numb and we lose the sensation and sensitivity of God in our hearts. There’s nothing good that comes from numbness; outside culture can influence your inside character, it’s hard to discern good from bad, and compromise can happen when you lose feeling. Once we remove the noise and the gods we may have created, we will see that God has been speaking the entire time. Through the power of God and this message, we pray Holy Spirit highlights the areas of numbness and brings back your sensitivity. Scripture References: Amos 5:18-27 NLT Isaiah 46:1-10 NLT
Pastor Jerry Flowers kicked off the KingNUMB series with a message titled, “He Set it Straight”. We delved into the story of the woman with an infirmity for 18 years in Luke 13:10-17. Like the woman, the enemy wants us to keep looking down on our troubles and dirt so that we become numb to the power of the Gospel. As we continue to bring ourselves to Church and the community of Christ, Jesus sees us, calls us and looses us. Our worship, prayer and devotion set things straight in our life and our legacy. Scripture References: Luke 13:10-17 NKJV Acts 5:28-29 NKJV Luke 13:12 NKJV Matthew 23:6 NKJV 1 John 1:6 NKJV Ephesians 5:8 NKJV John 8:12 NKJV Matthew 21:14 NKJV Luke 13:13 NKJV
It’s week 4 of Easy Money, and we have our oversight pastor Tim Ross sharing a powerful word with us! In today’s message, Pastor Tim shows us what it means to be a multiplier in the Kingdom. We aren’t called to get money so we can hold onto it & hoard it for ourselves. We are called to get money so we can give it away. When we realize that God is trusting us to be a blessing to others, we can easily give away whatever He asks of us. We realize it’s not our own, and when we can give away what He has trusted us with, He multiplies it. #easymoney #FinancialSeries #TransformationChurch #financialstewardship #timross
In Week 3 of the Easy Money Series, Pastor Robert Morris addresses our heart motives as it pertains to kingdom finances. We discussed giving and how becoming a giver is becoming like God.Here are 4 steps we must take to become givers with pure hearts: Deal with a Selfish HeartDeal with a Grieving HeartDevelop a Generous HeartDevelop a Grateful HeartAs we grow in our understanding of generosity, may we understand that we don’t give to get but we GET to give! Scripture References Matthew 7:1-2 NKJV Luke 6:37-38 NJKV Deuteronomy 15:7-8 NKJV Deuteronomy 15:9 NKJV Deuteronomy 15:14 NKJV
Throughout the Bible, God highlights the importance of stewardship. As we learn about stewarding our finances, understand that God is after our money because He is after our hearts. Matthew 6:21 tells us, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”We learned last week that ‘Money Follows Mastery’ and in this sermon, we learn that ‘Money Requires Management’. If we want to see more money in our lives, we must value managing it well.Here’s 7 Secrets to Simple Stewardship: Seek First: Kingdom ThinkingSow Frequently: TrustingSpend Feasibly: TrackingSave Fundamentally: TimingSecure the Future: TransferringSavor Fully: TastingSet Apart the Forbidden: TithingBy the end of this message, our desire is to stop praying for money and ask God for wisdom on how to manage what we have right now and our mindset around it! #EasyMoney #FinancialSeries #TransformationChurch #FinancialStewardship Scripture References: Proverbs 11:4 MSG Matthew 6:21 NKJV Matthew 25: 14-15 NLT Proverbs 10:22 NLT Matthew 6:33 NLT Proverbs 9:10 NIV 2 Corinthians 9:10 NKJV Luke 14:28-30 NLT Genesis 41:25-32 Proverbs 13:22 ESV Psalm 34:8 NLT Malachi 3:8-12 NKJV Leviticus 27:30 NKJV Deuteronomy 26:1-2 NKJV Luke 16:11-12 NIV
Welcome to Week 1 of the Easy Money Series! When it comes to lessons on finances, many people have heard about the Prosperity Gospel and the Poverty Gospel. However, we are introduced to the Purpose Gospel because all money in the kingdom has a purpose! Pastor Mike taught us that money follows mastery. Mastery only happens when you focus! This lesson encourages us to not just secure the bag but to secure our craft. We never have to follow money when we focus on the Master and our Mastery. #easymoney #financialseries #transformationchurch #financialstewardship Scripture References: Deuteronomy 28:12 NLT Matthew 6:33 AMP Proverbs 11:24-26 MSG Hebrews 12:2-4 NLT Matthew 17:24-27 NLT Colossians 3:23-24 NIV
There’s a difference between fashion and style. You can have the nicest clothes, but still not know how to put them together. The same thing works with what the Holy Spirit gives us. In week 5 of our new series KingDUMB, Pastor Mike teaches us how we can let the Holy Spirit tailor what was given to us in a way that is attractive to others and draws them to Jesus. Let this message empower you today! #KingdomSeries #KingDUMB #tailor #style
Today, Pastor Mike taught us how to serve in the kingdom of God. We learned that oftentimes we want to do what feels good, but we don’t serve our feelings. We place our feelings sub to the mission of God. How do you know you’re serving the King? It’s typically the opposite of what you want to do. Jesus even had opportunities to power trip but he had a power flip and walked in righteousness instead. This message will teach you how to surrender your feelings and opinions in order to walk in your God-given dominion. #KingDUMB #KingdomSeries #serving #serve
In this message, Pastor Mike reminded us that we are ‘Destined for Dominion’. From the beginning of time, dominion was crafted in our DNA and it’s our responsibility to walk in our royal power. God has ownership and we have rulership on Earth. We pray this message causes you to rise in your kingdom identity and sonship so that we can see heaven on Earth!Scripture References: Matthew 6:33 NIV Genesis 1:26 NKJV Psalms 115:16 NIV Joshua 1:3 ESV Isaiah 66:1 NIV 1 John 2:17 NLT Isaiah 9:6-7 NKJV 2 Corinthians 5:20 NASB Matthew 24:35 NIV
God’s plan from the beginning has always been partnership. We have the choice to simply walk in our identity as children of God or the authority of being an heir in the kingdom of God. In week 3 of our series KingDUMB, Pastor Mike illustrated what it means to seek the kingdom, be a partner and walk in our authority so that we can not only share the kingdom but claim your share of the kingdom. #KingDUMB #KingdomSeries #partnership
It's week 2 of our series KingDUMB! This week we learned the value of seeking the Kingdom and through a demonstration of ‘Hide and Seek’, we found out that it is NOT the same as looking. If you want the kingdom, God isn’t just going to give it to you, you have to search for it. The kingdom doesn’t come by proximity but by pursuit. We pray that this message gives you an appetite to seek the kingdom because it’s the ONE thing you can pursue and receive EVERYTHING along with it. #KingdomofGod #SeekTheKingdom #Seek1st #KingdomMessage #KingdomSermon
We kicked off the very first Kingdom Sermon Series entitled, I Will Not Be KingDUMB. Today, we learned that God’s people are destroyed for lack of knowledge, which translates in Hebrew, to ‘light’ (Hosea 4:6 KJV). When we walk without the light of God’s word, we walk in ignorance, also known as darkness in Hebrew.In this sermon we are taught how to SEE the Kingdom. The promise for this series is that our THINKING changes so that we can turn to God and see, seek, speak and serve the kingdom. If you’re ready for the Rise of a Holy Rebellion, stay tuned every Sunday at 10:45am CT.
Today we received a collision with vision as Pastor Mike shared the importance of having vision in his first message of 2023. The most valuable thing we can have is vision because it is the key to our future. It gives us the ability to see what is INVISIBLE and make it POSSIBLE. Though your vision may seem out of reach, it is not out of sight. Pastor Mike shares what has come to pass over the course of his life as a result of valuing vision and he also reveals the word of the year for 2023!We believe that this is the year of Kingdom: The Rise of a Holy Rebellion.Watch this video for a life-changing word that will truly change how you see the rest of your life. #WordofTheYear #VisionSunday2023 #Kingdom #TheRiseofAHolyRebellion
In this message, Pastor Charles explores the deeper meaning of prayer and explains that Prayer can be a portal to paradise. Prayer isn't just about communication with God but rather it is about communion with Him. We learn that fasting can help us grasp the importance of denying our flesh to be in close proximity with God. If you have struggled with understanding the purpose and power of prayer and fasting, this message is for you!
We often think obedience is successful when we see the outcome. But it’s really successful when we give it. It’s not about us receiving. It’s about doing what God has told us to do, when He told us to do it. Today, Pastor Mike shows us that we are not controlling the clock. He teaches us that we won’t have forever to do what God has called us to do. Our obedience matters, and He’s calling us to obey today! If you’re someone who has been battling with obedience, this message is for you! #CuffingSeason #CuffedToTheClock #obedience
Culture tells us that life is about climbing. If we don’t think we’re good enough in an area, we tell ourselves we have to work and strive to gain a higher position and improve our status. But kingdom culture teaches the opposite. In part 16 of Cuffing Season, Pastor Charles teaches us how we can recognize climbing in our lives. We learn that we can stop trying to reach the top & receive righteousness where we are. Make sure you share this message with a friend! #CuffingSeason #CuffedToClimbing #climbing
We’re so used to cap. We’re used to lying.The currency of today’s culture is cap, making us think it’s profitable to lie and appear as something we’re not. But what we are trying to avoid by lying will cost us in the long run. In week 15 of Cuffing Season, Pastor Mike teaches us how becoming comfortable with cap desensitizes us to the presence of Christ. He shows us how we can recognize cap in our lives, and break the habit of lying. We have to remember that God can handle the truth. #CuffingSeason #CuffedToCap #lying
We’ve all cuddled with someone who is comfortable & convenient. We’ve looked for love, validation, & acceptance, but we’ve settled for the cuddle that’s a cheap copy. When we make these counterfeit connections, we compromise. In week 14 of Cuffing Season, Pastor Mike shows us how to recognize when we’ve settled, and the steps we can take to find God’s best for our relationships. Ask yourself this today: Who are you cuddling with?
What are you building? God never called you to build your own platform, His desire is to build his platform in you for Him to stand on. This week, Travis Greene asks the question, what bricks are we using? We have built our platforms with bricks that are self-made, of acceptance, fame, dishonor, and jealousy. God wants to break down the bricks of our own creation and build his Kingdom with stones. If you want to allow God to build His platform in you, this message is for you!
What controls you: money or God? Your answer to that question reveals what you're cuffed to. This week, Pastor Mike teaches us how cash is important to life, but it cannot be the center of it. The only thing that can provide us with a truly fulfilling life is Jesus, and finances are always something He calls us to use to build His Kingdom. Our money will always have control until we can give it. If you’re looking for some help with your money, this message is for you! #CuffingSeason #CuffedToCash #cash #finances
What is surrounding you? What kind of people are you letting influence your life? We will always become like the things we surround ourselves with, and when we get around people and things that aren’t good for us, we become cuffed to things that contaminate us. In week 11 of our series Cuffing Season, Pastor Mike teaches us how to get free from the things that have contaminated us and step into God’s calling for our lives.
Cuffing Season is back! In this series, God has been revealing that we are all cuffed to something in life. The question is are you going to stay cuffed, or find freedom in Jesus? This week, we learn all about the dangers of cocky Christianity. God has promises for us. But we often can’t step into those promises because we won’t give up control. Pastor Mike teaches us that we are never fully in control, and we can only find true peace when we give it up for God’s plan. We can never be cuffed and in control. If you’re wondering how to give God more control in your life, this message is for you! #CuffingSeason #CuffedToControl #control
We’re all born into a story that’s already taking place. And our innate desire is to find out what character or role we are supposed to play in that story. We all know we have a place, and we’re constantly looking for it. But we have to look in the right place. Today, Pastor Brie & Aaron Davis teach us how important it is for us to find love, and that the only love that can truly satisfy us comes from God. #marriage #shame #story
God is not just the god of beginnings. He’s also the God of endings. He lets us go through things, and sometimes, He never explains why. Lead pastor of Change Church Dr. Dharius Daniels brought us a powerful message on how we can exit situations the Godly way. Even when we don’t know why God is taking us through something, we can rest in knowing that it was for our good and His glory. If you’re wondering what to do in a season of transition, this message is for you! #DhariusDaniels #IDontNeedClosure #exits
At Transformation Church, we believe that there are three baptisms: baptism into salvation, baptism in water, and baptism in the Holy Spirit. Flood Sunday is all about baptism in water. It’s an outward sign of an inward decision. Many of us stop the flow after salvation. But today, Pastor Mike taught us that baptism isn’t an obligation. It’s an opportunity for overflow! We challenge you to not stop the overflow. It’s Different Now. #FloodSunday #baptism #overflow
It’s Homecoming Sunday at Transformation Church! After over 900 days, we have finally opened our doors again! We were so excited to see our TC family, and Pastor Mike brought a powerful word. He taught us what home is supposed to look like through God’s eyes, and what happens when we run away from it. When we get far from home, we get far away from the Father. But no matter how far we are, God always welcomes us back with open arms. It’s time to come home! #Homecoming #TCIsBack #TCHomecoming #REpresent Join us for service online every Sunday at 11am (CST) and on Monday’s for Monday Night Prayer at 6pm (CST).

Week 4 of our series Launch In Victory started with a bang! Our lead pastor, Michael Todd, is back, and he’s teaching us everything we need to launch something in all of our lives. What is God wanting to launch in your life? Take that step. Start that project. Write that song. If God is calling you to it, He will help you through it. Let this series be a launching pad for whatever God is starting in your life. Let us know what God is launching in your life, and share this message with a friend!
If we’re not careful, we can make our Christian walk about what we can give to God. But the story of the Gospel doesn’t start with what we have given God. It starts with what God has given us: people. In week 3 of Launching In Victory, Pastor Charles teaches us how the people in our lives are gifts. He meant for us to fulfill our purpose together! If you’re looking to find purpose, this message is for you! Make sure to share with a friend! #LaunchInVictory #GodsGreatestGift #CharlesMetcalf
Have you ever been under pressure? Surely you’ve faced a situation where success or failure was up to you. How did you perform? Did you rise to the occasion, or did you falter under the weight of what was going on? How can we even hope to succeed in high-pressure situations? All it takes is one word: Practice. In week 2 of our series Launching In Victory, Pastor Charles teaches us the importance of practice and how it prepares us for our purpose. If you’re looking to grow in your purpose, this message is for you! Make sure you share it with a friend! #LaunchInVictory #PracticeMakesPerfect #CharlesMetcalf
We all have felt a pull to start something new. Change a job. Write a song. Go out with that person. So why can it be so hard to start? In our new series Launch In Victory, Pastor Charles Metcalf reveals to us how our lack of safety can hinder our start. He teaches us that when we find safety in prayer with God, we can do more than we’ve ever imagined. If you’re looking for that push to start, this message is for you! #LaunchInVictory #ASafePlaceToStart #CharlesMetcalf

They share with us how they make their “here” holy, no matter where they are. Check out this message and share it with someone in your life who needs to hear it! #WhatImHearingHere #HereIsHoly #7N7
What do you do when you can’t hear God? What happens when we reach out to Him, and He’s silent? Sometimes we can be in a season where we’re asking God for answers, and we hear nothing back. Many of us see God's silence as a punishment. But maybe it's actually a sign of intimacy. In week 3 of our series What I’m Hearing Here, executive pastor Amberly Bell shares with us that when God is silent, He’s never absent. If you're trying to hear from God, this message is for you.

With all the noise in today’s world from notifications, calendar reminders, ringtones, music, TV shows, movies, podcasts, and more, it’s very difficult to find a quiet place. But when the world around you is loud, how loud is is your internal noise? What is the soundtrack of your soul?

Don’t miss this message as Pastor Alex reminds us as Christians we should never get caught up in going through the motions and become stagnant, because if we do it will just make us tired, and eventually become “the walking dead.” We should instead wake up and turn to Christ, because He has covered our sins with grace!

This is a deliverance series, and the results should be the fruit of the Spirit. We see that fruit through discipline in our lives, and others should be able to see those results as well. But what do we do when they start talking about that fruit?

Comfort. Convenience. Comparison. Those aren’t things we want to be attached to, and yet we find ourselves drawn to them daily. The enemy uses them to keep us in condemnation. But God wants to convict our hearts, and lead us back to Him. In week 5 of Cuffing Season, Pastor Mike brings a word on where condemnation comes from, and how we can step into the grace of God that is given to us.

Comparison is a normal, human occurrence. It’s hard not to notice when someone has a nicer car than you, a bigger house than you, or seems more successful than you. We have all fallen into that temptation. But we can’t let comparison trap us. When it does, we begin to live outside of our calling and the life God has for us. In week 4 of our series Cuffing Season, Pastor Mike warns us about the dangers of comparison and teaches us how to kill it in our lives.
