Today we start a new series called “Got Joy?”, with Pastor Kuulei teaching on Paul's letter to the Philippians. At a time of imprisonment and possible death, Paul was able to address the church of Philippi with JOY, LOVE, and ENCOURAGEMENT.  He knew not only where His JOY came from, but he chose the POSTURE OF JOY, in spite of his circumstances.Key Scriptures:2 Peter 1:3, 2 Corinthians 1:8, Philippians 1:1-11, Nehemiah 8:10, Psalm 16:11, Galatians 5:22-23, James 1:2-4, John 15:11, 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Romans 15:13

Wrapping up our series “Pray Like This” walking through THE LORD'S PRAYER, Pastor Ira takes a deeper dive into the last line, “Lead us not into temptation…”. We have been given a great gift in Christ. He has promised that because of His death and resurrection we can be Born Again and walk in a “New Life”. This is the promise. Why do so many people not see it fully expressed in their lives? As we close this series on the Lord's Prayer, we will address this question. Key Scriptures:Romans 6:4, 7:21–25, Matthew 6:9–13, 1 Corinthians 10:13, James 1:12–15, Hebrews 2:14, Isaiah 54:17

Continuing our new series “Pray Like This” walking through THE LORD'S PRAYER, Pastor Kuulei takes a deeper dive into the sixth line, “Forgive us our trespasses”. In teaching His disciples to pray, Jesus went back to the verse on forgiveness and reiterated it in a way that seemed harsh.  But His heart was to communicate what true forgiveness looked like in the Kingdom of Heaven.Today we'll look at what biblical forgiveness is not, what it is, and why it's NOT OPTIONAL in the life of the Believer.Key Scriptures:Colossians 3:13, Matthew 6:9-12,14-15,18:21-22, Luke 23:34, Ephesians 4:32, Luke 17:3-5, 2 Timothy 1:7, Micah 7:19, Psalm 103:11-12

We stumbled into the most divisive schoolyard debate of all time—what do you actually call that game where you hit a ball between squares? Tim and Ricki always knew it as handball, Joel called it Foursquare in Perth, but then a TikToker claimed it's actually called downball and the floodgates opened. Listeners rang in from all over Australia with completely different names depending on where they grew up and what size ball you're using.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Continuing our series “Pray Like This” walking through THE LORD'S PRAYER, today Pastor chase takes a deeper dive into the 5th line “give us today our daily bread”. As Jesus continues to teach us how to pray, he challenges us to dig in daily to our daily bread, which is the Word of God.  By doing this we will how the rest of the prayer becomes easier and how we Grow in our Walk with God. Key Scriptures:Matthew 6: 9-13, 4:4, Deuteronomy 8:3, II Timothy 3:16, 1:7, 4:3, 2:15, Romans 10:17, 12:2, LUKE 8:10-15, James 1:22-24, Galatians 3:2-5, Hebrews 4:2,12, 5:12-6:1, Ephesians 4:14-15, Proverbs 22:18-19, 2:6, Jeremiah 17:7-8, Phil. 4:7, Col. 3:23, John 17:17

Kit Krugman is the SVP of People and Culture at Foursquare, where she is leading a significant shift in how the company approaches culture, performance, and organizational speed. In this episode of The Edge of Work, Kit shares how Foursquare redesigned its people systems to increase product velocity, reduce layers, and strengthen cross-functional teamwork.She explains why performance management became the starting point for culture change, how team-based performance and organizational network analysis provide better signals of impact, and how AI is beginning to reshape coaching, feedback, and learning—and what that means for the future of people leadership.LinksKit's Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kitkrugman/Kit's Blog Link: https://foursquare.com/resources/blog/culture/building-for-speed-why-culture-change-starts-with-performance/

John and Charles examine a newly surfaced transcript involving Paul Cain and Chuck Smith that exposes how leadership power functioned behind the scenes of the charismatic movement. The discussion traces how the same figures moved from Foursquare to Calvary Chapel, Vineyard, and ultimately the New Apostolic Reformation, carrying the same control structures with them. The conversation explores how recordings, private confessions, and reputation management became tools for enforcing silence, shaping narratives, and protecting movements at critical moments. By following the historical trail from the 1950s healing revival through the 1980s and beyond, the episode reveals how spiritual authority often operated less through doctrine and more through leverage. ______________________Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________- Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org

What is revelation—information on a page, or a living encounter with the risen Christ?In this episode of ProveText, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb is joined by Dr. Andrew Ray Williams (pastor-theologian, Foursquare minister, and contributor to the CPT Journal) to explore Emil Brunner's theology of revelation and why it still matters for Christians today.Together, they discuss:- What it really means to call Jesus the Word of God- How Scripture functions as a Spirit-breathed witness to Christ- Why false dichotomies between Christ and the Bible are dangerous- What inerrancy debates often miss- How preaching and teaching can invite genuine encounter- Why the church must discern Scripture together, not just individuallyThis conversation challenges the idea that the Bible is merely an information source and invites believers to recover a relational, Christ-centered approach to Scripture—one that expects God to speak.

We are very excited to have Dawn Vail speak at our services to open 2026. She and her husband, Ted, have long been leaders and high contributors towards the local and global ministry of our Foursquare denomination. Dawn has served in pastoral ministry in numerous cities where she taught Scripture and formed disciples. Her husband presently serves as the Vice President of Foursquare, which causes them to travel around the world to continue ministry in the name of Jesus. Dawn is a deeply kind and caring human, and we're thrilled to have her among us. We've previously heard from Ted and now we get to receive from Dawn! What a kind gift.

Today we start a new series called “Pray Like This”, with Pastor Ira teaching on the prayer Jesus gave His disciples when they asked Him to teach them to pray. The beginning of His prayer starts with “Our Father who is in Heaven”.Why don't we pray? One reason is we don't really know the One we are asked to pray to… As we embrace “Our Father in Heaven” and understand His heart for each one of us, we will be drawn closer to Him in transformational prayer. Key Scriptures:Luke 11:1, Matthew 6:1,5-13, Mark 14:36, Hebrews 11:6

Continuing our new series “Christmas at the Movies”, today Pastor Ira talks about “It's a Wonderful Life”, one of the most loved Christmas movies of all time. That is because it speaks to the heart of what it is to live a Wonderful Life. Everyone wants one, but few people find one. The message George Bailey's life teaches us is one that Jesus lived out fully and asks us to live as well. Key Scriptures:Mark 8:30–36, Romans 5:5, John 15:12–17, Ephesians 3:19, Ephesians 4:16, Luke 6:38

This life-changing message will ignite your Spirit-filled walk.In this powerful sermon, you'll discover:- The difference between salvation and baptism in the Holy Spirit (Acts 19:1-6)- How to "turn on" the flow of the Spirit daily through speaking and worship- Why praying in tongues is for ALL believers, not just some (1 Corinthians 14)- The nine manifestations of the Spirit and how they flow through you (1 Corinthians 12:7-11)- Practical steps to move from powerless Christianity to Spirit-empowered living- The power of the flow: rivers of living water coming out of your heart (John 7:38)Pastor Jerry systematically unpacks Scripture (Galatians 5:16-17, John 4:13-14, John 7:37-39, Ephesians 5:18-19) to show that God doesn't want you to live a silent, passive Christian life. The Holy Spirit is a fountain inside you waiting to be released. This message will confront, activate, and empower you to walk in the fullness of what Jesus bought for you.This is part of our "Swimming in Overflow" series on the Holy Spirit at The Rock Church.TIMESTAMPS0:00 - Introduction: The Power of the Flow5:20 - Galatians 5:16-17: Walk in the Spirit vs. the Flesh12:15 - John 4: Living Water as a Fountain Within You18:30 - John 7:38: Rivers of Living Water Flowing Out28:45 - "As the Scripture Has Said" - Believing Jesus God's Way38:10 - Acts 19: Salvation vs. Baptism in the Holy Spirit46:50 - The Flow: Speaking in Tongues and Prophesying49:25 - 1 Corinthians 12: Nine Manifestations of the Spirit56:00 - Word of Knowledge Testimony: The Power of the Flow59:50 - Ephesians 5:18: Be Filled with the Spirit - SPEAKING01:03:45 - Turn It On!
