In this message, we uncovered a powerful truth: the voices we allow into our lives can either bring life or poison our hearts, minds and souls.In Week 3 of our series, Voices, Ted Bryant helped us examine the toxic voices we face—complaining, negativity, gossip, rudeness and even false positivity. We learned that these voices can shape our outlook and relationships in destructive ways, but God offers us a better way.Through Colossians 3, Galatians 5, and Philippians 4:8, we were reminded of what Godly voices sound like—voices that build up, encourage and bring peace.

This past weekend, we talked more about an important truth: there's a danger in selfish ambition that can blind us to the needs of others. While ambition isn't always bad, when success becomes self-serving, it pulls us away from the way of Jesus.What motivates you to move or take action? Are you stuck in passivity or hustling for your own gain? Whether you're standing still or charging ahead, if the end goal is all about “me,” we're missing God's bigger vision.Jesus offers us a better way — one where purpose is rooted in love, service and eternal significance, not just achievement. God's definition of success always includes others, and it always reflects His heart.Missed the message?

This past weekend, we talked more about an important truth: we compare to try and improve and be better, but what if there's a dark side to comparison — one that hustles us out of who God made us to be and the impact He designed each of us to have?Comparison can sneak in quietly, making us question our worth, our calling and even our identity. But God's design for each of us is intentional and unique — and chasing someone else's path can cause us to miss our own.Jesus offers freedom from the pressure to measure up. Instead of striving to be like someone else, we're invited to live confidently in who He created us to be.Missed the message? Go back and watch it now — you don't want to miss how this truth can reshape your week.

This past weekend, we talked more about an important truth: the enemy loves to use fear — even something that feels as everyday as FOMO (fear of missing out) — to push us off course. He convinces us that if we don't hustle harder, stay in control or anticipate every danger, we'll miss out or fall behind.Before we know it, we're spending our Time, Energy, Attention and Money (our T.E.A.M.) in ways that were never part of God's design — ways that drain us instead of deepen us.But that's not the life Jesus invites us into. He offers something better — peace instead of panic, purpose instead of pressure. Let's recognize the fear tactics for what they are and return to a rhythm where we trust God with the outcomes.Missed the message?
