In this message, CRC Senior Leader Bryn Waddell teaches the family at the Homestead in Mobile, Alabama on the subject of "Navigating Transition". Often times in certain seasons of our lives, comes moments we wish we could avoid. Not realizing that it was your yesterday that is partnering with your today to get you into your tomorrow. The worst moments of your life are difficult, but they are also necessary. Trust God even in the difficult times and know that He is working all things out for your good.
On today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell guides us through the story of Joseph in Matthew 2. How Joseph's ear to hear what God was saying protected to the seed of the Messiah. From city to city Joseph moved on the word of the Lord. Until, out of fear, he moved his family to Nazareth. But even in the seemingly wrong choice, God had a plan. God even used Joseph's fear to fulfill scripture. Don't be discouraged, God can use every decision for His good. He's granting you a release today from the fear of missing it! We hope you enjoy today's message!
On today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell brings us the story of the passing of Moses. What seemed to be an understandably difficult time for the people of Israel, was actually the goodness of God to move them into a new season. Moses was buried by God in a place only known by God to show His people, don't dig up what was, move forward into what is right now! Whatever may be your Moses, trust God and believe it's for a new day! We hope you enjoy today's message!
On today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell guides us through the story of the disciples in Luke 8. As theyre getting on the boat they hear this word from Jesus "Let us cross over to the other side". That alone should have been enough for them to know they were going to make it. We all know the story, the storm comes and Jesus rebukes the winds and waves. But the question is did Jesus have to calm the storm? Or should the disciples believed enough in Him that they would've slept next to the one whom they knew would get them to the other side? Allow God's word to speak louder than the storm. He may be asleep but He's never left. We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this message, Pastor Bryn Waddell is continuing on the revelation of the soul. Last message we discussed Soul Cracks, in this message we're discussing Soul Guards. The question is now, how do we guard our soul? In Philippians 4:6-8, we are told to be anxious for nothing and then we would be given the peace of God that surpasses all understanding. Not only will it surpass all understanding, it will guard your heart! We learn that it's the peace of God that will guard our heart, all we have to do is guard our peace! Protect your peace and don't allow anything to stand in the way of what guards your heart. We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this message, Pastor Bryn Waddell takes us on a journey discussing "Soul Cracks". For many years you've heard the phrase "soulish ministry". With the understanding that we need to get past our souls and go directly to our spirit. Which we believe is true, however it is incomplete. If our spirits are perfect, then what ministry do they need? It's possible they need none. It is also possible that all ministry is indeed for the soul. Yahweh is taking us on a journey from unlearning the imprint of an old fallen world, to relearning our new world citizenship based upon our new creation status. We believe this word will change your life. We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this podcast, Robert Barnes continues with the subject "Our Journey With The Lord". In Song of Solomon we learn there's a bridegroom who longs for the real authentic representation of who we really are. As believers we tend to put on a facade in the thinking that Yahweh want's you in a perfect manner. But we learn through this message, He longs for the mask to be taken away and to show Him who you really are. He loves the real you! We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this message, Sam Gray digs into the story of Cain and Abel, to help us look internally and ask the question: Do we truly desire to please the Lord? Do we sometimes let ulterior motives creep in? Trust whatever the Lord is asking for or giving, and know it always ends with more of Him! We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this message, Pastor Bryn Waddell takes us on a journey, through the new and old testament, proving God's faithfulness. But how can we be sure that He will be faithful to us? Scripture declares to us that God has placed Himself inside of you. If He has placed Himself inside of you, He cannot deny himself. God being faithful is not because of what you have done, it is because who you have been supernaturally joined to. Rest and know that you are joined to a faithful God! We hope you enjoy this message.
In this podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell teaches out of Acts 3 on the subject of "A Year To Refresh". We believe that 2022 will be a year of refreshing for you and your family. How do enter into this refreshing? The Bible declares that if we Repent, change the way we think, Return our hearts to Him, He will bring a cool wind of refreshing into our lives. See this new year correctly, trust the Lord and believe He will bring refreshing. We love you and hope you enjoy this message!
In today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell takes us through the scriptures explaining the nature of burdens. When we hear the word burden, we think something heavy or large in size. However we understand that burdens don't have to be heavy to be debilitating, they just have to be lengthy. What are you carrying that may not seem big, but you've carried for a long time? Jesus is calling you to come to Him! Let those seemingly small yet lengthy burdens fall off in the presence of Jesus. We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell speaks on the subject "The Power of Praying In Tongues". 1 Corinthians and Acts shows us how praying in tongues is a direct line of communication to God and it's a vehicle where you release the mysteries of God. If you feel like your world is in disarray or something is missing, pray in tongues. Scripture declares it will edify yourself. We love you and hope you enjoy today's message!

In this message, Pastor Bryn Waddell discusses the story of Gideon. Israel is under the oppression of the Midianites. We find Gideon threshing wheat in a winepress. Afraid and surviving, Gideon is visited by the angel of the Lord. The angel tells Gideon that he is a mighty man of valor, even as he's seemingly hiding from his enemy. Eventually Gideon, through the help of the Lord, brings great victory to an entire nation. But it takes him tearing down the gods of his father's so his descendants would never experience this captivity again. You have the victory today! We hope you enjoy today's message.
On today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell guides us through the story of Paul in Acts 9. Paul had an incredible encounter with the Lord on Damascus road where he's blinded for three days. It wasn't until one man, Ananias, is instructed by the Lord to go and restore Pauls sight. But what if Ananias does not heed the instruction of the Lord? Does Paul regain his sight? What if you're the answer to someones problems? It could be that it takes your yes to bring them victory. Obey the Holy Ghost and allow your yes to bring healing to someone around you. We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this message, Pastor Bryn Waddell talks about the Purpose of Pressure. We see this pressure through the story of Joseph. The favorite of his father and robed in a coat of favor. Yet he's sold into slavery, forgotten in prison and falsely accused. However Joseph kept believing despite seemingly insurmountable odds. He allowed his pressure to push him to his destiny. Don't give up! Allow the pressure to perfect you into the things of God. We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this message one of our Elder's, Robert Barnes, dives into the subject of living an uncommon life. Many times as believers we separate our lives into two categories: The Secular and The Sacred. We learn however in this message that there is no divide in the life of a submitted son or daughter. Viewing life through the lens of these two categories actually causes division and double mindedness. Unify your heart and mind today and live the uncommon life! We love you and hope you enjoy today's message!
In this podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell discusses the story of Joseph. A man chosen by God to be the earthly father of Jesus and husband to a woman, named Mary, who was pregnant by the Holy Spirit.

We love you and hope you enjoy today's message!
On today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell teaches us how we are intended to be a personal entry point into the dominion and culture of another world.

Don't allow your discomfort to keep your gate from being opened! We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this message, Pastor Bryn Waddell brings us the story of Saul. Saul was a man God called choice and handsome. A man God had anointed to be king of all of Israel. However Saul struggled to believe these things God had said about him. Because of Sauls inability to believe God, he lead an entire generation into captivity by leaving alive what God told him to kill. Saul tolerated what he was called to eradicate. Hear and obey the voice of the Lord today. He's calling you to fulfill the promise. Don't allow anything to get in the way of you and Him! We hope you enjoy today's message.
In today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell walks us through the story of the paralytic man in Matthew 9. Wanting what any paralytic would want, he desired to be healed.

It leads to external order. We love you! We hope you enjoy today's message!

On today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell presents to us the story of David and Goliath. Arguably one of the most recognizable stories in all of the Bible. However we believe there is a hidden truth in this familiar story. What made David successful? Was it just who he was? Was it the bag that held the stones? Or was it the stones themselves? The parallel we begin to see is all of us can be one of those three. Without any one of those operating in their intended purpose, Goliath is never slain. Take heart today and know there's a reason for where you are right now. Trust the process. We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this message, Pastor Bryn Waddell goes through the book of Acts and 1 Peter, to give us a better understanding of this one idea....The Father loves me. We find it easy at times to encourage others and tell them how much Yahweh believes in them, but when it comes to ourselves we struggle to believe that same idea. However we cannot afford to believe anything about ourselves other than we are chosen, royal, holy and special. Open your heart and mind today to the Fathers love. We hope you enjoy this message!

So join us today as we discover together the importance of the history of the scriptures!
On today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell dives into an in depth study on the Bible. Expounding upon not only why we believe the book we all hold so dear, but why it is also foundational to our lives and the most trustworthy historical document ever written . Our world has experienced great change and turmoil, but in times when it seems all is shaken, the word of God stands unshaken and a light in the darkness. When all else fails, don't forget to not only get in the word of God but stay in the word of God! We hope you enjoy today's message.
In this podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell takes us on a journey through the old testament of the children of Israel. From Exodus to 1 Samuel how God's people were growing weary of the very thing that set them apart.....Him. Yahweh was meant to reign over the lives of the people of Israel but the people had another way in mind. Instead of Him being enough they wanted more, not realizing that there is nothing more outside of Him. Is He enough for us? Can we truly say that we desire nothing more than Him? Journey with us today as we endeavor for Him to be enough!
In this podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell bring us to the story of Peter and John in Acts 3. A lame man who was set at a gate called beautiful/flourishing, peering into a dimension that he can see but he could never attain, asks alms of these two apostles. Peter responds not with a temporary fix but an everlasting exchange. The Apostolic tells this man rise up and walk. Then he takes him by the hand and lifts him up. Through Apostolic order and by the power of Jesus, this man holds on tightly to the apostolic and can now not only see a place called flourishing, but can walk into a place called flourishing. Be like this man and cling to the Apostolic! We believe this word will change your life.
In today's podcast, Pastor Bryn Waddell takes us through the story of David. David was the forgotten son of Jesse, looked down upon by his brothers and seemingly no one of any significance on the outside. But in a hidden place David was faithful to his fathers sheep. David's faithfulness in private led him to promotion in public. And when it was time to take a stand against the giant, David stood before him full of confidence. Goliath was God's goodness to propel him into the place He always had for him. Be encouraged today and know that all of your private victories will lead God to do it again in public. We hope you enjoy today's message!
In this message, Pastor Bryn continues the thought on The Way Out. The question being what do we do with discouragement? The book of Hebrews declares to us the answer...consider Him! If you're dealing with discouragement, Yahweh wants to make an exchange. Your discouragement for supernatural empowerment. We hope you enjoy today's podcast and we believe it will be a life changing word!
In this message, Pastor Bryn reveals the differences between momentary disappointment and living in a spirit of disappointment. Momentary disappointment comes to us all, but Yahweh is jealous for us to live a life of contentment.

We hope that you enjoy todays message and that a spirit of thanksgiving and contentment would fill your mind and heart!

Or will we make the choice to believe that it is in His goodness what we are experiencing in our lives. Join us on this journey today!

In today's podcast, Pastor Bryn guides us through the story of Jehoshaphat and the people of Israel in 2 Chronicles. What seemed liked a hopeless situation, a battle they could not win, Jehoshaphat did only what he knew to do. He bowed his head, gave thanks to Yahweh and appointed those who knew how to praise to lead the charge. Regardless of what it looked like or how they felt, he decided they would praise and not panic. Yahweh brought them great victory! We believe this message will bring you hope that if you'll praise, He'll go before you and make a way where there was no way!

In this message, Pastor Bryn takes a scripture that is most commonly used during the current political climate and reveals the hidden kingdom truth. The scripture 2 Chronicles 7:14 at it’s core is the story of a father, David, handing dreams to a son, Solomon, and a son completing a promise that was given to his father. An entire nation was able to turn, humble themselves and hear from heaven because a father handed a blueprint to a son that created generational legacy. Join us today as we learn what it truly takes to turn a nation back to God.
