In “No Days Off,” Sam Fleury teaches from 1 Timothy 4:6–16 that spiritual growth requires intentional training. What we consume forms us, our disciplines shape us, and godliness affects every area of life. Through the imagery of training, stretching, lifting, and running, Sam challenges us to feed our souls with truth, follow Jesus with discipline, develop visible spiritual fruit, and use the life and grace God has given us to influence and invest in others.

In DTWOL... Identity* we dive into... who are you... and who possesses the authority to answer that question? In a world constantly assigning labels, encouraging self-definition, and telling us to look within; Identity* dives beneath what can be seen on the surface to examine what the only true God says is true about humanity—and about those who are in Christ. From what was true FORMERLY, to the life-changing intervention of BUT GOD, we discover that biblical identity is not something we manufacture, achieve, or earn; it begins with the Creator and, for the disciple, is made new in Jesus Christ. And when the only true God changes what is happening under the skin, new desires, new affections, and a new direction increasingly become evident in the way His disciples walk, talk, and live. So perhaps the question isn't merely, “Who am I?”—but something considerably deeper: “Whose am I?”God's Word: Key Verses: Genesis 1:26–27; Ephesians 2:1–5; Colossians 1:13–14; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Ezekiel 36:26–27; Additional Scripture references are woven throughout the Godcast and can be gleaned from the full transcript.

THE FINAL EPISODE IN OUR FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT SERIES! We made it!! In this episode, we explore self-control as a fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22–23. Self-control isn't simply about trying harder or suppressing our desires—it's about allowing the Holy Spirit to shape our thoughts, choices, words, emotions, and actions. We'll talk about what biblical self-control looks like in everyday life, why it can be difficult, and how walking with the Spirit helps us respond with wisdom instead of being ruled by our impulses. In this episode, we discuss: What Galatians 5:22–23 teaches about self-control The difference between willpower and Spirit-led self-control How self-control impacts our words, emotions, relationships, and decisions Practical ways to grow in self-control Why surrender to God is at the heart of true self-control Key Scripture:“...the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.” — Galatians 5:22–23 Takeaway:Self-control isn't about becoming strong enough to handle everything on our own. It's about becoming surrendered enough to let the Holy Spirit lead us. Hope this helped y'all!! Buy my book Becoming Happy and Healthy

Just as there is purpose for the fruit that grows on trees, there is purpose for the fruit of the Spirit that grows in us. God wants to use us to reach the world, but we are only able to be used by Him and grow fruit when we remain connected to Him in every area of our lives.

Daily Nugget: Today, Mike explores the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22–6:2 and what our response should be when the Spirit is transforming our lives. As we keep in step with the Spirit, we become humble people who are continually changed by God while also allowing Him to use us to change ourselves, encourage one another, carry each other's burdens, and impact the world. The fruit God produces in us is never meant to stop with us—it becomes a powerful way He works through us.
We live in a world where almost anything can be edited, filtered, generated, or made to look real.But real transformation cannot be faked.The Fruit of the Spirit is not about performing a better version of yourself. It is about what begins to grow in you when the Holy Spirit is truly at work — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.In this message, we'll look at the kind of change that goes deeper than appearance, emotion, or behavior. Because when the Spirit transforms you, the fruit will show.You can dive even deeper in this topic, explore the daily devotional based on this week's message by clicking on the link below:https://www.livewithpurpose.church/mapfreedomLearn more about our church located in Athens, TX, here:https://www.livewithpurpose.church/Check our SOCIALS:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ThriveCCAthens/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thriveccathens/GIVING:Giving Online: https://www.livewithpurpose.church/giveGiving By Mail: 610 ½ Old Tyler Highway Athens, Texas 75751You belong here!
Episode Summary:In this episode, we continue the Fruit of the Spirit series by looking at goodness. Most believers do not struggle to believe that God is good, but many struggle to believe that His goodness is truly in them. Through Galatians 5:22-23, Micah 6:8, and Romans 2:4, this message shows that goodness is not something we manufacture; it is the fruit of God's Spirit in us, meant to be seen, tasted, and experienced by others. When we act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God, our lives become a living witness to His goodness.Main Scripture:Galatians 5:22-23Micah 6:8Romans 3:12Mark 10:18Psalm 34:8Leviticus 24:22Proverbs 31:9Zechariah 7:102 Corinthians 3:2-3Romans 7:19Matthew 12:35Romans 2:4Big Idea:Only God is good, and His goodness in us is meant to be seen, tasted, and experienced by others.In This Episode:Why the fruit of the Spirit is not something we produce, but something we bear because of what the Spirit has done in us.Why true goodness cannot be separated from God, and why our goodness is really His goodness at work in us.How Micah 6:8 shows goodness through acting justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with God.Why goodness is seen in how we treat people, especially those who are different from us, overlooked, powerless, or difficult to love.How the goodness of God leads people to repentance by showing them who God is, not merely telling them what is wrong.Reflection Questions:Do I believe God's goodness is in me, or do I only believe that God is good?What do people see on the outside of me that reveals what God has done on the inside?Where do I need to treat someone fairly who is not like me?Who in my life could use mercy or forgiveness, even if they have not asked for it?Am I trying to prove goodness by what I know or do, instead of bearing the fruit of who God has made me to be?How can I show the goodness of God instead of only pointing out what is wrong?Next Steps:Read Galatians 5:22-23 and Micah 6:8 this week, asking God to help you bear His goodness.Ask God to show you one person who needs mercy from you this week.Look for one practical way to act justly by helping or protecting someone who needs care.When someone asks why you are being good to them, point back to the goodness God has shown you.Stop making your personal convictions everyone else's principles, and let the Holy Spirit do His work.Make it your aim to be a billboard of the goodness of God everywhere you go.Closing Line:Listen in, share this message with someone who needs encouragement, and subscribe so you do not miss the next episode.
Series: Galatians 5Main Scripture: Galatians 5:22-23a “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control"Synopsis: We live in a world engineered to make us impatient and it isn't just changing how long we'll wait for a package, it's changing how we treat the people around us. In this message we look at patience not as gritting your teeth and waiting, but as the "long fuse" of a God who is slow to anger and how the root of most of our impatience is simply a forgetful heart. When we lose sight of how much we've been forgiven, we lose our ability to bear with one another.August 9, 2026 • Tucker Parman• • • • • • • •.• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Join us for service in person and online every Sunday at 10am (MST) at the City Life Community Center in Missoula, MT.

Discover the character the Holy Spirit produces in the life of a believer. This teaching explores how yielding to the Spirit transforms our attitudes, actions, and relationships to reflect Christ.
We live in a world that conditions us to strive—do more, achieve more, become more, and somehow find rest when everything is finally finished. But what if true rest was never meant to be something we manufacture, earn, or chase? In DTWOL… REST, we dive beneath physical relaxation and explore Jesus' invitation, “Come to Me… and I will give you rest,” discovering how faith, His finished work, waiting upon the Lord, and dependence upon His power bring rest to the soul. And we'll discover that biblical rest doesn't mean the disciple stops walking, serving, enduring, or even striving—it means we stop trying to accomplish in our own strength what only the only true God can supply. So… are you tired from the journey—or tired from trying to be the source of the strength needed for it?God's Word: Key Chapters: Matthew 11; Hebrews 3–4; Isaiah 40; John 14; Colossians 1Additional Scripture references are woven throughout the Godcast and can be gleaned from the full transcript.

Maybe it's breaking free of the doom scroll on your phone. Or controlling your lustful or fearful thoughts. Or staying away from the ice cream in the freezer. Or getting up early enough to prioritize time with God. No matter who we are, we all struggle with self control! It's the last of Paul's 9 character qualities that make up the fruit of the Spirit that God is forming in his people.

Prophecy is real, but so are false prophets. In this message Lead Pastor Jamie Nunnally shares how to embrace the important spiritual gift of prophecy without abandoning discernment.Welcome to Elephants in the Room where we tackle tough topics and discuss sensitive subjects.Reminder of our 4 rules:1) I am not targeting anyone and I never will.2) Please give me time to formulate points and cover the subject fully. 3) You have, not only the right, but the responsibility to check up on what I say and verify that it's the truth.4) If you disagree or get offended, please reach out to me personally. Today we are talking about prophecy and false prophets. The Messy MiddleTake two truths and hold them together, at the same time, in order to find the most accurate version of truth available. Two "messy middle" statements about prophecy and false prophets:1. God still speaks through the gift of prophecy....and2. Not everyone who claims to speak for God actually does. Are you willing to pursue prophecy and test prophecy?

Episode Summary:In this message from the Fruit of the Spirit series, we look at patience through the words of Jesus in Matthew 11:28-30. Patience is not simply waiting on someone else; it is steadiness, endurance, and perseverance as we walk with Jesus. For anyone who feels tired, worn out, or burned out, Jesus offers a better rhythm: come to Him, rest with Him, learn from Him, and live freely and lightly. This episode invites us to recover spiritual patience by practicing solitude, Sabbath, simplicity, and a slower pace of life.Main Scripture:Matthew 11:28-30Mark 2:27Big Idea:Patience grows as we learn to live at Jesus' pace through solitude, Sabbath, simplicity, and slowing down.In This Episode:Patience is deeper than waiting; it is steadiness, endurance, and perseverance in the life God has given us.Jesus names a progression we often ignore: tired, worn out, and burned out.When we are tired, we need rest; when we are depleted, we need to be refilled.Solitude helps us hear God again when the noise of the world has become too loud.Sabbath teaches us that real rest is part of discipleship, not a distraction from it.Simplicity helps us trust what God has already placed in our hands instead of trying to carry what does not fit.Slowing down helps us stop missing what God is doing now because we are rushing toward what is next.Reflection Questions:Where have I reduced patience to simply waiting on others instead of learning steadiness with Jesus?Am I tired, worn out, or burned out? What signs have I been ignoring?What is one thing I may need to say “no” or “nope” to so I can live by what God has laid out for me?What noise is keeping me from hearing God clearly?When was the last time I simply sat with God and rested?Where am I trying to complete God's assignment with someone else's method?Where am I rushing so fast toward tomorrow that I am missing what God is doing today?Next Steps:Spend intentional time alone with God this week before letting the noise of the world speak first.Build real rest into your rhythm instead of waiting until you are depleted.Practice saying “no” to one thing that does not fit God's priorities for your life right now.Choose simplicity in one area of your schedule, ministry, or finances.Slow down enough to enjoy the ride and notice what God is doing now.Walk with Jesus in the unforced rhythms of grace, trusting that He will not place anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.Closing Line:Listen in, share this message with someone who needs rest, and subscribe to keep walking through the Fruit of the Spirit with us.
Series: Galatians 5Sermon Title: The Source of PeaceMain Scripture: Galatians 5:22-23a “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control"Synopsis: We tend to think peace comes when everything finally settles down — when circumstances are going our way, when there's no conflict or tension in our relationships, when life is generally on our side. But true, biblical peace is different. In this message we trace how peace with God is the foundation for all peace, and examine two arenas where peace naturally is produced: peace with others, and the peace of God that guards our hearts even when nothing around us is calm.August 2, 2026 • Tucker Parman• • • • • • • •.• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Join us for service in person and online every Sunday at 10am (MST) at the City Life Community Center in Missoula, MT.

What does it actually mean to be faithful to God—especially when you're waiting, discouraged, or life isn't going according to plan? In this episode of our Fruit of the Spirit series, we're talking about faithfulness and what the Bible teaches about trusting God in every season. We'll unpack God's faithfulness, how to stay consistent in your Christian faith when your feelings change, and why being faithful in the small things matters more than we realize. If you've been struggling to trust God, waiting for an answered prayer, or wanting to grow deeper in your relationship with Jesus, this episode will encourage you to keep showing up, keep obeying, and remember that God is faithful—even when you can't see what He's doing yet.
