In this hilarious and encouraging Father's Day message, Pastor Michael explores the reality of being "Dad Tired" and discovers the secret to renewed energy through the powerful promise of Isaiah 40:30-31. From the dangers of "The Dad Chair" to the inspiring story of the prophet Elijah's burnout and recovery, you'll learn that true energy doesn't come from better sleep schedules or energy drinks—it comes from connecting with God's purpose for your life.

"To wait upon The Lord means to bind yourself to His Purpose. Nothing will energize you like the purpose of God for your life."

"Energy flows from purpose." ---------- BIBLICAL FOUNDATION - Primary Text: Isaiah 40:30-31 - Supporting Story: Elijah's burnout and restoration (1 Kings 19) - Key Hebrew Word: Qavah (H6960) - to wait, bind together, twist into rope - Historical Context: Isaiah's shift from judgment to comfort and hope ---------- PRACTICAL APPLICATION For Physical Energy: - Prioritize rest, nutrition, and self-care ("snack and a nap") - Maintain healthy sleep schedules and exercise - Recognize the biblical importance of basic needs For Spiritual Energy: - Connect daily with Jesus through prayer and Scripture - Remember your identity as God's beloved child - Bind your life to God's purposes through obedience - Move from passive waiting to active connection with God For Parents Specifically: - Find recharging moments in connecting with your children - Remember that your greatest purpose is following Jesus - Express that purpose through loving and teaching your kids - Your identity isn't "Good Dad" or "Bad Dad" but "Beloved child of God" For Everyone Running on Empty: - Stop trying to manufacture energy on your own - Plug into resurrection power instead of battery power - Weave your small story into God's great story - Trust that Jesus emptied Himself so you could be filled ---------- THE GOSPEL CONNECTION Jesus didn't just come to forgive sin but to give abundant life.

Running on Empty “You can't pour out what God hasn't poured in.” Pastor Michael explores the tension between feeling spiritually empty and God's promise of an overflowing cup in Psalm 23. Through humor, personal stories, and the biblical account of King David's darkest moments, this message addresses why we often feel like we're "running on empty" spiritually and how God wants to fill us to overflowing. Key Topics Covered The Fuel Light Challenge Opening illustration about internet challenges and the "Fuel Light Challenge" How we live spiritually like we drive on empty - pushing through warning signs The cycle of telling ourselves "things will slow down after this week" Understanding Psalm 23:5 Ancient Near Eastern hospitality customs The significance of an overflowing cup as God's generous provision David's promise: "My cup runs over" vs. our reality of feeling empty The Story of The Broken King King David's betrayal by his son Absalom David's flight from Jerusalem and his moment of despair The birth of Psalm 42 in David's wilderness experience How David moved from "Why is my soul cast down?" to hope in God When Your Cup Runs Dry Common areas where we feel empty: money, energy, and timeThe danger of carrying burdens God never asked us to carry Understanding God's pruning process in our lives Recognizing our human limitations (even Jesus needed rest) Key Quotes "You can't pour out what God hasn't poured in" "God does not ask you to pour out what you don't have. He's inviting you to be filled" "Instead of being too blessed to be stressed, we are too tired to be inspired" "There are no heroes when your cup runs dry. There is only an empty cup and God to fill it" "God can work with breadcrumbs of time" Scripture References Primary Text: Psalm 23:1-6 (KJV) Supporting Passages: Psalm 42:1-3, 5 Ephesians 2:10 Matthew 11:28 Practical Applications Start small: worship in the car, read one verse while coffee brews Look for cracks in your day to fill with God Be intentional about finding time for spiritual filling Ask God what needs to go - what you're carrying that He never asked you to carry Bring your empty cup to God instead of trying to shake drops from it Personal Stories Shared Pastor's experience with work stress and finding time for worship during commutes Preparing sermons during lunch breaks while eating reheated pasta The ongoing struggle with time, energy, and balancing ministry with secular work Historical Context Background on King David as shepherd, warrior, king, and songwriter David's authorship of approximately half of the 150 PsalmsThe cultural significance of Psalm 23 over 3,000 years For Further Reflection Where in your life do you feel like you're "running on empty"? What burdens might you be carrying that God never asked you to carry? How can you create small moments throughout your day to be filled by God? What needs to be pruned from your life to make room for what God wants to pour in? This message is part of the "Overflowing" series at ReCreate Church, exploring how God wants to fill our lives to abundance rather than leaving us running on spiritual fumes.

Disciples Who Make Disciples Today, Pastor Michael is starting off with an affirmation, a potential sixth love language. What is this extra expression of love? Discipleship. This message is about discipleship. Disciples who can disciple the next generation. Michael picks up the story with Jesus picking out the twelve disciples, those who could “preach and drive out demons.” These twelve are listed in three additional lists in the New Testament (Matthew 10: 2-4, Luke 6: 14-16, and Acts 1: 13) with Peter always named first. Being a disciple always requires intentionality. You are a disciple, you are being discipled, and you disciple others. What is a disciple? Someone who believes in Jesus for salvation. Someone who is being transformed by obedience to the teaching of Jesus, with the help of a mentor. Should be showing/bearing the fruit of a new life. Taking part in the mission of Jesus. Wrapping up, Pastor Michael offers the following: Have you trusted Jesus as your savior? Who is helping you grow as a disciple? Who are you helping follow Jesus? Be a disciple that makes disciples! (CSB Bible Notes) Mark 3:13-15 The mountain here is not identified. Jesus spent the night praying (Lk 6:12). Summoned those he wanted seems to indicate more than just the twelve disciples (cp. Lk 6:13). The number twelve recalls the twelve tribes of Israel. Today's verses are found in Mark 3: 13-14.

The Rescuers Today, Pastor Michael is talking about rescue. If you are a Christian, a follower of Christ, then you have been rescued. And Jesus is sending you to rescue others! The rescued become rescuers is our theme for the day. We can summarize the mission of the Great Commission in four words: Go—intentionally where people are. Intentionally connect with people. Reach—share Jesus with people in a way that they can relate to and respond. Baptize—not just getting them wet, but making them a part of the community of believers. Teach—disciple them. We cannot ever lose sight of this mission! We must refuse to be inwardly-focused. We must become “rescuers.” Steps to Rescue Pray for the Lord to open your heart to someone who needs Jesus and His hope and light. Be aware of your opportunities with that person. God has thrown someone a lifeline, and that rescuer is YOU! Today's verses are found in Matthew 28: 18-20.

A Safe Place to Be Real Today, Pastor Michael is talking about things that cut us deep. Mistakes and regrets that we have made. Wounds that can poison us. The only way to help in this is to have a safe place to be real. Recreate Church is exactly that…a safe place to be real. The safest place to be real is in a church family. Today's central idea, “In a community of life and love, nobody struggles alone!” We all need someone we can trust, to help us out of the pits of life. (CSB Bible Notes) 5:16 Pray for one another echoes the prayers of the elders, and these should lead to both physical and spiritual healing (i.e., forgiveness). Prayer is not a magical incantation or a guarantee of healing, but when offered fervently by a righteous person, God will respond in a way that best fits his good purposes. Today's verses are found in James 5: 16. Scripture quotations marked CSB have been taken from the Christian Standard Bible®, Copyright © 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers. Used by permission.

It's so easy to lose our why—especially when it comes to our relationship with God, or even with the church. In this series, our heart is to help you, both personally and as part of our Lifehouse community, rediscover and recenter your why when it comes to church.
Simplicity of Faith Today, Pastor Michael discusses the gospel and its purity, not needing rules and attachments to its core. The gospel isn't complicated. There is joy in the simplicity of the gospel message, so don't complicate what Jesus made simple. Michael then gives us examples that churches and Christians complicate the message to confound potentially new believers: Expecting people to clean up before they meet Jesus. Be patient with folks and allow them to grow! Expecting people to be doctrinal pros from the get-go. Making an idol out of our preferences and traditions. Forgetting that not everybody's an insider. (CSB Bible Notes) 15:19 James's position as the first among equals in the Jerusalem church is seen in his summarizing conclusion to the debate. In his judgment, Jewish believers should not cause difficulties for those turning to God from among the Gentiles.

Acts 15 | Disagreements and Division in the Church - Pastor Greg Mah by South Bay Community Church
A Community of Life and Love Today, Pastor Michael is discussing how some folks have dismissed church due to not finding a church that serves them well. At Recreate we are doing just what our name impies; redefining our church to serve people. Church done right is a community of life and love! (CSB Bible Notes) 2:42 These four practices—teaching . . . fellowship, the breaking of bread, and prayer—provide insight into the priorities of early Christianity. These same practices should be considered normative for the church today. Today's verses are found in Acts 2: 40 - 47.

In a culture obsessed with influence and image, James reminds us that God doesn't play favorites—and neither should we. This message challenges us to confront the subtle ways we show partiality and elevates mercy as the true mark of mature faith. Because in God's Kingdom, grace outweighs status every time.
