What good is reaching the finish line first if you no longer recognize—or respect—the person who crossed it?We live in a world obsessed with winning.Get the promotion. Close the deal. Reach the goal. Beat the competition. Prove that you are the best.But there is a question we do not ask nearly enough:What is your success costing you?If achieving your goal requires you to compromise your integrity, damage your relationships, tear down other people, or lose yourself along the way, did you really win anything?In Week 8 of the Summer Shift series, Kevin Lowe challenges the belief that where you finish matters more than how you ran the race. Through a memorable sandcastle competition at the beach, he reveals why success built through shortcuts, selfishness, or sabotage will always leave you feeling empty—even when everyone else thinks you won.Press play and discover how to pursue your goals with ambition, integrity, and purpose without sacrificing the person you want to become.In This Episode, You'll DiscoverWhy winning can still feel empty when it costs you your characterHow shortcuts and compromised values quietly destroy your self-respectWhy helping other people succeed does not diminish your own successHow to remain competitive without becoming selfish or ruthlessWhy the person you become during the journey matters more than your final positionHow to pursue meaningful success while protecting your relationships and integrityWhat it truly means to win in life—not merely on paperThe Problem With Winning at Any CostThere is nothing wrong with wanting to win.There is nothing wrong with setting ambitious goals, pursuing a promotion, growing a business, becoming the best at your craft, or pushing yourself beyond what you thought was possible.The problem begins when winning becomes the only thing that matters.A victory may look impressive from the outside. The numbers may be great. The bank account may be growing. Everyone may be applauding your accomplishments.But none of that can replace your integrity, your relationships, or the peace of knowing you earned your success honestly.Success that costs you your character is not success worth achieving.How to Win Without Losing Yourself1. Win With IntegrityDo not cheat, manipulate, or cut corners just because doing so could get you to the finish line faster.A shortcut may help you achieve the result, but it can rob you of the pride and self-respect that should come with it.Run your race in a way that allows you to look back and honestly say:I earned this. I remained true to myself. I am proud of how I showed up.2. Win by Lifting Other PeopleCompetition does not require cruelty.You can be driven, ambitious, and fiercely competitive without tripping the person running beside you. Helping another person does not take away from your own opportunity to succeed.A rising tide lifts all boats.The greatest victories are rarely the ones we celebrate alone. They are the ones that allow us to grow while helping the people around us rise, too.3. Win by Becoming Someone BetterThe short-term goal may be reaching the finish line.The greater goal is becoming a stronger, wiser, more grounded person by the time you get there.Ask yourself:Who am I becoming while pursuing this goal?Am I proud of how I am treating people?Am I building character or merely collecting accomplishments?Will this journey leave me fulfilled when the applause ends?When the journey transforms you into someone you respect, your final position no longer determines whether you won.Your Summer Shift ChallengeThink about one goal you are currently pursuing.It could involve your career, finances, health, relationships, business, or personal development.Now ask yourself:Am I pursuing this goal in a way that will make me proud of who I become?Do not focus only on the finish line. Consider how you are running the race, how you are treating the people around you, and whether your daily choices align with the person you want to be.Because eventually, just like a sandcastle washed away by the incoming tide, the trophies, titles, and temporary victories will disappear.What remains is your character, the lives you touched, and the person you became along the way.Listen, Follow, and Keep GrowingFollow Grit, Grace, & Inspiration so you never miss a new episode of encouragement, perspective, and practical personal growth.Listen and follow on Apple PodcastsListen and follow on SpotifyExplore more episodes and inspirationNew episodes are released every Tuesday morning.Connect and Work With Kevin LoweBring Kevin to Your Next EventLooking for an inspirational keynote speaker who can help your audience reimagine limitations, reframe adversity, and move forward with courage and perspective?Learn more about inspirational speaker Kevin LoweTurn Your Story Into a Custom SongK-Lowe Music creates original custom songs around the people, stories, milestones, and messages that matter most.Create your free Custom Song BlueprintRemember ThisIt is not only about where you finish.It is about how you run the race.Run it with integrity.

In Week 2 of this special six-part Mental Toughness Academy series on The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman introduces the first mental training tool that has helped championship teams, Olympic athletes, Fortune 500 organizations, and elite performers unlock their highest level of performance: Attaining Belief in Yourself.Building on the foundation of discovering your Burn, Ben explains why knowing your purpose isn't enough—you must give yourself permission to believe bigger than ever before. Through powerful stories from his work with North Dakota State, Kansas State Football, and legendary coach Chris Klieman, Ben reveals how belief, consistency, and daily discipline create extraordinary results. You'll also discover the powerful lesson behind "Pound the Stone" and why lasting success is built one intentional day at a time—not through overnight breakthroughs.This session also walks you through the Five Steps to Attaining Belief in Yourself, helping you honestly assess where you are, define where you want to go, and begin creating a vision backed by action. Through guided exercises in your Mental Toughness Playbook, you'll identify personal and professional goals while building the mindset, habits, and disciplines necessary to turn your vision into reality.This isn't about thinking positively. It's about developing the conviction, consistency, and belief required to become the person your goals demand.----------------------------------Download Your Mental worksheet here- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1izwqYu6LqwzmTBsWj6x9eVXfacWxQQj-/view?usp=sharingPurchase your Mental Toughness playbook  - https://a.co/d/0bESdAooPurchase your YOUR Burn Journal & Prizefighter Day Yearly Tracker - https://a.co/d/0aDN69s2----------------------------------Ready to take the next step?Visit www.WorkWithBNC.com to learn more about the Mental Toughness Academy, connect with our team, and get your questions answered.Don't miss the opportunity to grow as a coach and leader.Join Ben Newman for The Leaders Academy beginning September 16—an 8-week live coaching experience designed to challenge your thinking, raise your standard, and elevate your leadership.www.bennewmancoaching.com/leaders-academy---------------------------------Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD:  https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a messageOrder my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewmanConnect with me everywhere else:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

Have you ever been hurt by someone? It may seem like a silly question, but often times we like to pretend the answer is no, especially when it comes to our childhood. Our default reaction to pain is to hide it until it goes away, but when it inevitably doesn't, God is waiting with a better plan.In Week 9 of "Comeback Stories," Pastor Jason dives into the heartbreaking story of Jepthah in Judges 11-12. Once a castaway, Jepthah gains everything and then loses it all because he never dealt with his past wounds. Today, we unpack the damage childhood trauma inflicts on us and those around us, and the steps we can take to find healing and break generational curses.

LOOKING GOOD, MISSING GOD Can you be deeply religious and still miss God completely? In Week 7 of our Parables series, Pastor John Hill unpacks Jesus' Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector. Through two very different prayers, Jesus exposes the danger of self-righteousness and reveals the kind of heart God truly honors. You'll discover: Why God's holiness must be our standard How knowing Christ changes everything Where true confidence is found Mercy isn't earned by the good—it's received by the humble. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

In Week 2 of our These Things You've Heard Me Say. series, we discover that the gospel was never meant to stop with us. In 2 Timothy 2, Paul reminds Timothy that what has been faithfully received must also be faithfully entrusted to others who will continue the work of making disciples.Disciple-making begins and ends with God's grace. His grace fuels our faithfulness, sustains us through the challenges of perseverance, and empowers us to invest in others for the sake of Christ. Though the work is often costly, the reward is seeing God transform lives, and the lasting result is a gospel legacy that reaches future generations.Join us as we explore what it means to faithfully guard the gospel—not by keeping it to ourselves, but by giving it away so others can do the same.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.orgConnect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!Instagram: @integrity_churchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/liveintegrity/

What does it really mean to live well—especially when life is busy, difficult, or draining? In Week 4 of Transformed, Pastor Josh teaches from Romans 12:11-13 and shows that living well is not the same as living a perfect life. It means serving God wholeheartedly without faking enthusiasm, remaining patient and prayerful when trouble comes, and keeping our lives open to the needs of people around us. If you want your faith to shape the way you meet pressure, pain, people, and everyday responsibilities, this message offers a clear and hopeful next step.   Speaker: Josh Mienser Series: Transformed Week: 4 Message: Live Well Date: July 19, 2026 Scripture: Romans 12:11-13   Connect with us: https://bit.ly/m/lifechurchia Learn more about LIFEchurch: https://www.lifechurchnow.org/ Give: https://www.lifechurchnow.org/give

You did the assessment. You saw what needs to change. And now the question sitting underneath everything is: how do I actually change it without blowing up everything that is working?That is what this episode is about.In Week 3 of the mid-year recalibration series, we are going to get practical. Not the inspiration version of change, the real version. The one that happens inside a full life, with real constraints, over actual time.We will start by naming the cognitive trap that derails most recalibration before it begins: the instinct to conflate seeing something that needs to change with needing to start over entirely. Then I will walk you through the four specific failure points where recalibration breaks down, not because people lack motivation, but because the process itself has predictable places it goes wrong.And we will close with a five-step framework for what sustained course-correction actually looks like: how to sort what you found, find the highest-leverage adjustment, define the smallest version of change that still matters, build the anchor before you move, and give it long enough to actually take hold.This is the episode for anyone who has done the inner work and keeps stalling at the step where it becomes real.In this episode:Why the brain jumps to starting over, and why that instinct usually costs more than it fixesThe difference between a verdict and a signal and why it changes everything about how you respondFour failure points that derail recalibration even when the motivation is realHow to tell whether you are dealing with an external problem or an internal patternWhy changing everything at once is not commitment, it is a setup for collapseWhat anchoring actually means and why it is the step most people skipThe minimum viable change framework: small and sustained versus large and abandonedWhy six weeks is the real timeline and six days tells you almost nothing

What is the Kingdom of God really worth?In Week 4 of our True Fiction series, Pastor Chris Hoyt explores two of Jesus' shortest parables, The Hidden Treasure and The Pearl of Great Price (Matthew 13:44-46).Through a humorous story about an unexpected discovery while repairing a broken sewer line, Pastor Chris reminds us that some of life's greatest discoveries happen while we're simply trying to fix what's broken.These two parables reveal a powerful truth: the Kingdom of God doesn't become valuable when we discover it. It has always been priceless. The question is whether our eyes have been opened to see it.But the story doesn't end there.What if there was a third treasure hunter in these parables? One who gave up everything, not because He found treasure, but because He found us.If you've ever wondered whether following Jesus is worth it, this message will remind you that before you ever treasured Christ, Christ treasured you.Scripture: Matthew 13:44-46

Caleb waited 45 years for a promise. When he finally got the chance to collect it, he didn't ask for the easy plot — he asked for the hardest territory in the land.In Week 7 of Uncharted, we put God's track record on trial. We look at Joshua 14 and 21 and ask: has the wait made you bitter, or has it made you better, bolder? Because the same God who kept every promise to Israel hasn't forgotten the one He made you either.

Break free from The Approval Trap and reclaim your inner peace. In Week 1 of the Mastering the Mind Talk Series, Reverend Lee Wolak explores how seeking validation gives other people control over your confidence, happiness, and self-worth. Discover how to release people-pleasing, overcome fear of judgment, stop depending on external approval, and reconnect with your authentic spiritual nature. This empowering spiritual talk offers practical wisdom for mastering your thoughts, building emotional freedom, developing self-acceptance, and living from inner truth.

In Week 4 of the Everything's Fine series, Pastor Gary Thomas challenges us to honestly examine the "rocks" we've been carrying, the addictions, habits, and character flaws that keep us from experiencing the freedom Jesus offers. Through the lens of Steps Six and Seven, he explains that real transformation begins when we become fully willing to surrender the things that are holding us back instead of simply managing them. Looking to Scripture, Gary reminds us that God's desire is not just to forgive our sin, but to reshape our hearts into people marked by compassion, kindness, humility, and love. This message encourages us to count the true cost of our sin, trust God's grace, and take the courageous step of letting go of what has been weighing us down. If you've ever struggled to break free from unhealthy patterns, this sermon offers practical hope and a powerful reminder that lasting freedom begins when we're willing to drop the rock.

Every great story has a hero. An epic battle. A villain worth defeating. And somewhere deep down, most of us feel like we were made to be part of a story like that.We were right.Heroes and Villains is a series exploring the hero moments found in Scripture — and what they reveal about Jesus as the ultimate Hero. Because every story of Good vs. Evil, every underdog triumph, every moment where one person stands against impossible odds — they're all echoes of the same cosmic battle still being written.Epic story. Real battles. One Hero.But here's what this week's message asks: what if we get to be heroes too?Not by being the strongest or the most powerful. Not by winning every fight. But by being something the world desperately needs and rarely finds — a truth teller.In Week 3, Jennifer Shock brings three heroes to the table: one fictional, one from the Old Testament, and one who is the Truth itself.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

What is the true worth of your life? In Week 2 of our Not Home Yet series through 1st Peter, Pastor Tom Kang explores the infinite price paid for your heavenly citizenship. Using the marketplace concept of being ransomed, this message reveals that Jesus didn't just rescue us from eternity; He bought us back from the futile scorecards and generational baggage handed down by our families. Sharing the raw, hidden struggles of author Max Lucado, we are reminded that we don't need a self-improvement plan—we need a benevolent buyer. Discover the radical relief of a God who rescues us first, and learn how knowing your value changes everything.

What are you doing with your 90,000 hours? The average adult will spend roughly one-third of their life working—whether that is paid professional labor, running a household, or navigating school. Yet many followers of Jesus are unsure how their faith connects to their daily occupations. In Week 4 of our Kingdom Greatness series, Pastor Alex Gowler breaks down a powerful biblical theology of work, shattering the common myth that full-time ministry or writing big checks are the only ways to honor God. True kingdom greatness isn't found in using your job for self-fulfillment or survival; it is unlocked when we view our daily tasks as a primary calling to honor God and serve others. Whether you are clocking into a corporate office, working a trade, or managing a home, this message will challenge your daily perspective and reveal how your ordinary labor can hold extraordinary eternal value.Key Takeaways from This Message:- Work is a Created Gift, Not a Curse: Long before sin entered the world, God established work in the Garden of Eden. Because God is a worker, our labor is a fundamental way we reflect His image.- Redefine Your Purpose: While fair compensation and personal satisfaction are wonderful perks of a job, they are not its ultimate purpose. The true purpose of work is generosity and loving service.- Your Daily Tasks Are True Worship: Colossians 3:23-24 reminds us that whatever we do, we are ultimately serving the Lord Christ. Every spreadsheet, customer interaction, and manual task is an opportunity for worship.- The Reframe Questions: To shift from a worldly mindset to kingdom greatness, routinely ask yourself: "Who is on the other side of the work I am doing?" and "How does my work make their life a little better?"Reflect & Discuss:What is one practical change you can make this week to view your daily tasks as an act of service to others rather than just a way to earn a living?

What does it actually mean to live a blessed life? In Week 4 of Summer of Wisdom, Pastor JC explores what the book of Proverbs teaches about blessing—and it's probably different than what you've been told. A blessed life isn't measured by wealth, success, or comfort. It's the deep joy, peace, and fulfillment that come from walking closely with God and living according to His wisdom. In this message, you'll discover: - Why God's definition of blessing is different from the world's - How walking with God leads to lasting fulfillment - Why creating margin brings peace instead of pressure - How generosity transforms your heart - Why gratitude is the evidence of a truly blessed life

We all want transformation—but most of us still want control.In Week 06 of Rooted, we arrive at the hinge point of the series: Surrender. For the first six weeks we've been working beneath the surface—our roots, identity, mind, truth, and faith. Now we discover that real spiritual growth happens when we stop trying to control our lives and begin abiding in Christ.Jesus said, "I am the vine; you are the branches." Branches don't struggle to produce fruit. They simply stay connected to the source of life. That's the invitation of John 15—not to try harder, but to abide deeper.We'll explore what it means to remain in Christ, why surrender is an act of trust rather than weakness, how God lovingly prunes our lives for greater fruitfulness, and why the deepest transformation doesn't come from striving—it comes from staying connected to Jesus.Because healthy fruit is never manufactured. It grows naturally from healthy roots connected to the True Vine.Transformation is not behavior management. It is life from the roots up.Follow Coach Dan Holland:Facebook ➡️ https://www.facebook.com/CoachDanHollandYouTube ➡️ @CoachDanHollandVisit us online

Moses didn’t feel qualified—but God called him anyway. In Week 2 of Heroes of the Faith, we discover that God has never been limited by our weaknesses. He calls ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things through His power and presence. If you've ever felt like your past, your fears, or your shortcomings disqualify you from what God has for you, this message is for you. Learn why obedience matters more than ability and how trusting God's presence can change everything.

What small improvements could make your private practice easier for prospective clients to find? Are you building referral relationships before you actually need them? Could consistent systems and community networking become your practice's greatest growth strategy? In Week 22 of building Great Lakes Online Counseling, Joe Sanok and assistant Jen focus on laying the groundwork for long-term growth through stronger visibility, streamlined systems, and intentional networking.  

In Week 6 of the Follow Me series, Pastor Putnam takes a powerful look at the life of Matthew—the tax collector who was rejected by society but chosen by Jesus. Through Matthew's remarkable story of redemption, you'll discover that God's grace reaches beyond shame, failure, and labels to transform lives with purpose and hope. This message reminds us that Jesus doesn't see us for who we were—He sees who we can become. Whether you've felt overlooked, disqualified, or burdened by your past, this sermon is a powerful reminder that Christ still calls the broken, restores the outcast, and invites everyone to simply "Follow Me."

We live in a culture that has completely mastered the art of "Main Character Energy." From curated social feeds to algorithms that cater to our exact preferences, we have optimized our daily lives to be served, coddled, and insulated. But the hidden side effect of this consumer-driven lifestyle is a profound, aching emptiness. In Week 5 of our Zoeology series, we expose the ultimate paradox of the Kingdom of God: true, overflowing abundance (zoe) is never found in what we accumulate or who bows to us, but in how we empty ourselves for others. If you want to experience the fullness of life, you have to lay down the right to be served.In this episode, we step directly into the cognitive dissonance of the Upper Room. While the disciples are actively bickering over which of them is the greatest, Jesus answers their verbal posturing with a silent, shocking act of physical demotion. By unpacking the raw cultural scandal of John 13, we discover a King who willingly unclasped the robes of a Rabbi to wrap a slave's towel around his waist—kneeling to wash the feet of his closest friends, and notably, his ultimate betrayer.Key Takeaways:The Royal Contrast: How King Haakon VII of Norway's wartime humility sets the stage for a King who traded His crown for a towel.The Anatomy of a Scandal: A deep dive into first-century culture and why a Rabbi putting on a lention (slave's apron) shattered the ancient framework of status and honor.Theory vs. Towel: The brutal gap between agreeing with the theory of serving (Mark 10) and actually picking up the basin when it's right in front of us (John 13).Washing the Traitor: The radical, costly grace of Jesus choosing not to skip the seat of Judas Iscariot.Scripture: John 13:1-17; Luke 22:24-27; Isaiah 53:1-5

Have you ever felt like someone, or maybe even yourself, is just "too far gone" for God's grace? In Week 2 of our series, we dive into Mark 5:1–20 to explore what happens when Jesus intentionally crosses to the "other side" to reach a man society had completely isolated and written off. This powerful message reminds us that God's unmerited favor extends far beyond our comfort zones.

Summer on the Mount — Week 2: Salt and Light: The Visible Kingdom | Matthew 5:13–16 Texts: Matthew 5:13–16Jesus does not bless us so we can disappear. He blesses us so His Kingdom becomes visible.In Week 2 of Summer on the Mount: A Better Way to Be Human, Pastor John continues through the Sermon on the Mount and teaches from Matthew 5:13–16, where Jesus calls His people the salt of the earth and the light of the world.This message shows that Kingdom identity comes before Kingdom activity. Jesus does not say, “Try to become salt” or “Try to become light.” He says, “You are.” The people Jesus blesses are the people Jesus sends into the world as a visible sign of the Kingdom.If you have ever wondered how ordinary faithfulness can make an invisible God visible in a visible world, this message is a reminder that a restored life becomes a visible witness. Salt creates thirst. Light gives direction. And good works point beyond us to the Father.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 1:00 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextstepsFollow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch

In Week 1 of this special six-part Mental Toughness Academy series on The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman lays the foundation for everything that follows by introducing the one concept he believes separates elite performers from everyone else: The Burn.Drawing from nearly two decades of coaching championship teams, Olympic athletes, Fortune 500 organizations, and leaders across the world—including his work as Mental Conditioning Coach for the Alabama Crimson Tide football—Ben shares the same mental training principles that helped shape national championship teams and thousands of high performers. You'll learn why purpose alone isn't enough, how your Burn ignites your purpose, and why understanding that deeper fire changes the way you show up every single day.Ben also shares the deeply personal story of his mother, whose courage, resilience, and unwavering determination became the foundation of his own Burn. Through that story, you'll begin identifying the experiences, sacrifices, challenges, and convictions that can fuel your own pursuit of excellence. Along the way, you'll complete your first Mental Toughness Assessment, begin building your Burn Journal, and take the first steps toward developing the mindset and discipline required to perform at your highest level.This isn't six weeks of motivation. It's six weeks of coaching designed to help you build lasting mental toughness, elevate your discipline, and attack the second half of the year with greater purpose, clarity, and conviction than ever before.----------------------------------Download Your Mental Toughness Pre - Assessment worksheet here- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IL4g27yFleywpecncDN_DGNai2Uc5ge3/view?usp=sharingPurchase your Mental Toughness playbook  - https://a.co/d/0bESdAooPurchase your YOUR Burn Journal & Prizefighter Day Yearly Tracker - https://a.co/d/0aDN69s2----------------------------------Ready to take the next step?Visit www.WorkWithBNC.com to learn more about the Mental Toughness Academy, connect with our team, and get your questions answered.Don't miss the opportunity to grow as a coach and leader.Join Ben Newman for The Leaders Academy beginning September 16—an 8-week live coaching experience designed to challenge your thinking, raise your standard, and elevate your leadership.www.bennewmancoaching.com/leaders-academy---------------------------------Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD:  https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a messageOrder my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewmanConnect with me everywhere else:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

What if God's love is greater than your wandering? In Week 6 of our Parables series, Pastor David Gaunt explores one of Jesus' most beloved stories—the Parable of the Lost Sheep. This powerful picture of God's heart reveals a Savior who actively pursues people who have drifted, wandered, or become lost. You'll discover:    -How much God values every person    -Why Jesus pursues the lost    -What God's love looks like in action No matter how far you've wandered, you're never beyond the reach of God's grace. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

What do you do when God doesn't make sense? In Week 2 of our Habakkuk series, Nick walks through Habakkuk 1:5–2:1, where the prophet wrestles with one of the hardest questions in Scripture: How can a holy God use an even more wicked nation to accomplish His purposes? Habakkuk cries out over the violence and injustice around him, only to discover that God's plan is far bigger—and far more surprising—than he expected. This message reminds us that God is always working, even when His work confuses us, and that faith is often formed while we wait for answers. In this message: • The world is more broken than we often realize. • God is always working, even when His work confuses us. • We all want justice... until justice points in our direction. • Faith waits when understanding cannot. Whether you're wrestling with unanswered prayers, confusion, or difficult circumstances, this message will encourage you to trust God's character even when you can't fully understand His plan. Scripture: Habakkuk 1:5–2:1 If this message encouraged you, like this video, subscribe to our channel, and share it with someone who needs hope today. Join us every Sunday at 9:15 AM & 10:45 AM.

In Week 2 of The Truth About Hell, we ask the question: Has hell changed—or have we? This message examines what the Old Testament, Jesus, and the New Testament teach about hell, eternal judgment, and separation from God. We also explore the biblical meanings of Sheol, Hades, Gehenna, and the Lake of Fire, while addressing questions about purgatory and God's justice. Hell is not simply a place of physical suffering—it is eternal separation from God's goodness, love, peace, joy, and favorable presence. Yet the gospel offers hope: through surrendering our lives to Jesus, we can be forgiven, made righteous, and restored to a relationship with God. Our mission is not to frighten people into the Kingdom but to lovingly share the truth of Jesus with compassion and urgency. Let love overcome your fear. Let eternity be your motivation.

Loving difficult people is one thing in theory. It is another thing in real life. In Week 3 of Transformed, Pastor Chris teaches from Romans 12 and invites us to move beyond performative love into the genuine love Jesus has shown us. This message explores empathy, prayer, blessing, doing good, and forgiveness—not as ways to deny pain, but as ways to let God transform our hearts. If you are carrying offense, struggling with bitterness, or wondering how to respond to someone who has hurt you, this message offers guidance and practical next step.   Speaker: Chris Cary Series: Transformed Week: 3 Date: July 12, 2026 Scripture referenced: Romans 12:9-10, Romans 12:20-21, John 13, Luke 23:34   Connect with us: https://bit.ly/m/lifechurchia Learn more about LIFEchurch: https://www.lifechurchnow.org/ Give: https://www.lifechurchnow.org/give

In Week 3 of our Kingdom Greatness series, Pastor Alex Gowler delivers an eye-opening message focused on what it truly means to serve our community. Challenging the cultural definition of greatness, this message confronts the lie that we can follow Jesus without actively contributing to the common good of those around us. Grounded in the truth of Galatians 6:7-10, Pastor Alex unpacks how kingdom greatness isn't about status or keeping rigid religious rules—it is the direct fruit of sowing to the Spirit rather than the flesh. If you have ever felt too busy, worried, or distracted to step out in faith, this message is a prophetic wake-up call to cut back the hurry, step back from the worry, and take back the waste of time and energy stolen by the enemy. Discover how simple, everyday acts of service can jumpstart your spiritual maturity and position you to receive the eternal harvest of blessings God has prepared for you.KEY TAKEAWAYS:- Redefining Your Community: True community service isn't just about your inner circle; it means intentionally contributing to the common good of the everyday people you share spaces with—neighbors, coworkers, and strangers alike.- The Law of the Harvest (Galatians 6:7-8): God's justice cannot be mocked. Sowing to the flesh via ego, comfort, or self-centeredness yields temporary decay, while investing your time and energy into the Spirit reaps a lasting, eternal life.- Overcoming the Three Obstacles: To effectively serve, we must actively battle self-centeredness expressed through Hurry (which blinds us to others), Worry (our fear of vulnerability and rejection), and Waste (throwing away valuable time on digital distractions).- The "Ministry of Small Talk": You don't need a massive platform to share Christ's love. Simple, intentional interactions like greeting a neighbor or asking about someone's day carry the literal presence of the Holy Spirit into a disconnected world.- 5 Practical Ways to Engage: Move from stagnation to active obedience by choosing to be a good neighbor, volunteering for local causes you care about, giving meaningful time (beyond just writing a check), stepping into local civic leadership, and committing to consistent prayer for your community.

Where can real hope be found when life feels uncertain?In Week 2 of our series, How Did We Get Here?, we explore Isaiah 53:1–6 and Jeremiah 31:31–34 and discover that hope isn't wishful thinking or positive emotions. Hope in the Lord is a declaration of trust in the only One who saves.Scripture References: Isaiah 53:1–6, Jeremiah 31:31–34 (ESV)#GraceCityChurch #churchonlineGrace City Church in Lakeland, FloridaJoin us every Sunday at 9:30am & 11:15am EST.Pre-save our new song, "Encounter": https://found.ee/GC_Encounter?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQPOTM2NjE5NzQzMzkyNDU5AAGn_lhv53ccmEXUyWWCDN9ERi37MKpMIGnERcH9-miD3j9tS4Y6OxA13dJziU8_aem_pCFTO4i0FF0EElVTHV2zkAGive Online: https://gracecity.com/give/Said yes to Jesus today?

Sometimes the biggest battle isn't what's happening around you—it's what you're able to see. In Week 2 of our Vision series, discover how God opens our spiritual eyes to see beyond fear, recognize His presence, and walk by faith instead of circumstances. Through the story of Elisha, Pastor George reminds us that God is always at work, even when we can't see it, and that there are always more for us than against us. Whether you're facing uncertainty, fear, or waiting on God to move, this message will encourage you to trust His perspective over your own.

What if the Kingdom of God doesn't grow the way we expect?In Week 3 of our True Fiction series, Pastor Rob & Tara Schwartz unpack Jesus' parables of The Mustard Seed and The Yeast (Matthew 13:31-33), revealing a Kingdom that often begins in the smallest, most ordinary ways.A tiny seed becomes a place of shelter.A little yeast quietly transforms an entire batch of dough.These parables remind us that God's greatest work is rarely loud or immediate. His Kingdom grows through influence rather than force, transformation rather than power, and faithful obedience rather than instant results.If you've ever wondered whether your small acts of faith matter, or questioned whether God is still working when you can't see it, this message will encourage you to trust the process and the One who is growing His Kingdom.Scripture: Matthew 13:31-33

07-12-2026 Ephesians Series – Week 9 | Ephesians 4:17-32 | Pastor David Nunn What does it really mean to be holy? In Week 9 of our Ephesians series, Pastor David Nunn explores Ephesians 4:17-32 and challenges the common belief that holiness is achieved by trying harder or following a list of rules. While Paul gives practical instructions for Christian living—telling believers to stop lying, control their anger, avoid stealing, speak words that build others up, and practice kindness and forgiveness—the deeper message is that these behaviors are not the cause of holiness, but the result of a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. Pastor David walks through Paul's argument in Ephesians, reminding us that throughout the letter, salvation, transformation, and spiritual growth are presented as the work of God's grace, not human effort. Through Christ, believers have been redeemed, adopted into God's family, and empowered by the Holy Spirit to become a new humanity united in love. This message highlights the difference between striving for individual righteousness and participating in God's work of shaping His people into the body of Christ. True spiritual transformation happens as believers live in community, encourage one another, and join the Holy Spirit in building up the church. Key Takeaways: Holiness cannot be achieved—it can only be received. Christian living flows from relationship, not rule-keeping. The church is being formed into the fullness of Christ together. The evidence of spiritual growth is truthfulness, self-control, generosity, encouragement, kindness, compassion, and forgiveness. Jesus' command to "love one another as I have loved you" remains the foundation of Christian life. As followers of Christ, we are called to lean into the work of the Holy Spirit, encourage one another, and help build the church into the full measure of Christ's likeness. Scripture: Ephesians 4:17-32

Most people want mountain-moving faith, but very few are willing to live mustard-seed lives.In Week 05 of Rooted, we discover that biblical faith isn't about having bigger emotions or greater certainty—it's about placing even small faith in a faithful God. Jesus compared faith to a mustard seed because real transformation often begins quietly, beneath the surface, long before anyone sees the fruit.We'll explore why God often develops our faith in seasons of uncertainty, what the Israelites learned at the Red Sea, and why familiar bondage can sometimes feel safer than unfamiliar freedom. We'll also discover that healthy faith is built one small act of trust at a time.If you've ever wondered why God seems to work slowly, why He allows wilderness seasons, or how your faith can grow stronger, this message is for you.Because transformation is not behavior management. It is life from the roots up.Follow Coach Dan Holland:Facebook ➡️ https://www.facebook.com/CoachDanHollandYouTube ➡️ @CoachDanHollandVisit us online

In Week 1 of our new series, “The Truth About Hell,” Pastor Josh shares a message titled “What Happens After We Die?” This sermon looks at what Scripture teaches about heaven, hell, judgment, salvation, and the urgency of responding to Jesus in this life. While hell is a difficult topic to talk about, Jesus spoke clearly about eternity, and His words help us understand both the justice and mercy of God. Through passages like John 3, John 14, Luke 16, Matthew 25, Revelation 20, and 2 Peter 3, we are reminded that God desires people to repent and come to Him. A biblical understanding of hell should lead us to appreciate God's grace, live with compassion, and share the gospel with boldness. Listen and be encouraged to trust Jesus, follow Him, and live with eternity in mind. #CentralValleyChurch #TheTruthAboutHell #ChristianPodcast #Sermon #JesusSaves

Have you ever wondered... ✨ What's the difference between a spiritual gift, a talent, and my personality? ✨ How do I know what God has uniquely created me to do? ✨ Am I comparing myself to someone else's calling instead of embracing my own? In Week 4 of our Holy Girl Summer series, we're exploring one of the biggest keys to discovering your God-given purpose: understanding how God uniquely designed you. Many women confuse spiritual gifts, natural talents, and personality, but while they work together, they each serve a different purpose. When you understand the difference, you can stop striving to be someone else and start confidently walking in the woman God created you to be. In this episode, you'll learn:

If Jesus returned today, would you be ready? In Week 5 of our Parables series, Pastor Carlo Mendoza examines Jesus' sobering Parable of the Ten Virgins. This story reminds us that spiritual readiness cannot be borrowed, postponed, or delegated. Every person must be prepared for the return of Christ. You'll discover: Why spiritual preparation matters What Jesus teaches about readiness How to live with eternity in view The wisest people aren't those who predict the future—they're those who prepare for it. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

If you have ever wondered where you fit in the church, this message is for you. In Week 2 of Transformed, Pastor Amy teaches from Romans 12:3-8 and shows how humility, spiritual gifts, authenticity, and connected community all flow from knowing who God is. This message explores what it means to think of yourself less without thinking less of yourself, why the body of Christ needs every part, and how God's kingdom values hidden faithfulness over status and approval. If you have felt disconnected, uncertain of your role, or tempted to keep your faith private, this teaching offers a practical next step.

Summer on the Mount — Week 1: The Upside-Down Good Life | Matthew 5:1–12 Texts: Matthew 5:1–12What if the life the world calls blessed is not actually the good life?In Week 1 of Summer on the Mount: A Better Way to Be Human, Pastor Kevin begins walking through the Sermon on the Mount by looking at the Beatitudes. Before Jesus teaches about anger, desire, prayer, money, anxiety, or obedience, He begins with blessing. He answers the question everybody is asking in some form: Who is really living the good life?This message shows that the Beatitudes are not a ladder to climb so we can earn God's favor. They are an announcement that the Kingdom has come near. Jesus blesses people the world does not know what to do with: the poor in spirit, those who mourn, the meek, the hungry, the merciful, the pure in heart, the peacemakers, and the persecuted.If you have been chasing a version of blessing built on success, control, comfort, image, or comparison, this message is an invitation to let Jesus redefine the good life—and to come to Him honestly, poor in spirit, hungry for righteousness, and ready to receive.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 1:00 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextstepsFollow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch

Why do some people hear God's Word and experience lasting transformation while others seem unchanged?In Week 2 of our True Fiction series, Pastor Kim Hoyt explores Jesus' Parable of the Sower (Matthew 13:1-23) and reveals that the difference isn't the seed. It's the soil.Through powerful biblical teaching and a deeply personal story of healing, Pastor Kim reminds us that every heart goes through seasons. Some become hardened by pain, some remain shallow, others become crowded by life's distractions. But God has never looked at a heart and declared it beyond hope.The Gardener is still cultivating.The seed is still good.And new life is still possible.If you've ever wondered whether your heart can be restored, this message is for you.Scripture: Matthew 13:1-23

What happens when God's people lose sight of His Word? And what can happen when they rediscover it?In Week 6 of Chronicles of the Kings, we look at the life of Josiah, a king whose heart was transformed when God's Word was rediscovered. Watch as Pastor Ben Chapman takes us through Josiah, The King Who Rediscovered the Word and discover how God's Word still has the power to transform lives today.

In Week 12 of our Welcomed. series, we explore two very different responses to the same gospel message. In Acts 17:1–15, Paul faithfully proclaims Jesus in both Thessalonica and Berea, yet one city responds with jealousy, opposition, and hostility while the other receives the Word with eagerness and examines the Scriptures daily.What makes the difference?This passage challenges us to consider whether we approach God's Word as a threat to our assumptions, preferences, and priorities—or as a gift from a good and loving God. The Bereans remind us that the welcome of Jesus creates hearts that eagerly receive the truth, submit to God's authority, and delight in hearing His voice.Join us as we discover the joy, freedom, and transformation that come from receiving God's Word on His terms and allowing the gospel to shape every part of our lives.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.orgConnect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!Instagram: @integrity_churchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/liveintegrity/

Have you ever prayed for something so long that you finally just... stopped asking? Not because you stopped believing God could — but because you weren't sure anymore that He would. If that's where you're at, this message is for you. In Luke 18:1-8, Jesus tells the story of a widow with no power, no status, and no advocate — who refuses to stop showing up before an unjust judge. It's not a story about praying harder. It's a story about what your prayer life reveals about what you actually believe about God. In Week 5 of our "Stories: Parables" series, Pastor Kim walks through this parable and unpacks four qualities of a persistent prayer life: discipline, patience, trust, and perseverance — showing why God's delay is never His absence, and why waiting is often where He does His deepest work. If you've ever wondered whether your prayers are getting through, this message will change how you see the wait. Watch now, and if it encourages you, like, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs it. Luke 18:1-8 (NIV)

In Week 2 of Summer of Wisdom, Fayette County Campus Pastor Ben Calhoun explores what the book of Proverbs teaches about relationships and why the people closest to us have a greater impact than we often realize. Wisdom isn't just about choosing better friends—it's about starting with the right relationship, examining the voices shaping your life, and surrounding yourself with people who help you become more like Jesus. In this message you'll discover: • Why your relationship with God shapes every other relationship • How your friendships influence your future • The difference between healthy and unhealthy influences • Why isolation isn't the answer—biblical community is • How God uses the local church to help us grow spiritually No one was created to follow Jesus alone. The people you walk with today will help determine who you become tomorrow. ⛪ ABOUT GO CHURCH GO Church exists to love people to life by helping people take their next step with Jesus.

In Week 1 of our new series, "Kingdom Greatness," Pastor Dave Mudd delivers a prophetic wake-up call to the church about what it truly means to live like Jesus. Exploring Mark 10:35-45, this message confronts the cultural lie that Christianity can be lived without actively serving others. While the world tells us to climb the ladder of self-promotion, power, and comfort, Jesus flips our definition of success completely upside down, demonstrating that true greatness is found not in how many people serve you, but in how many people you serve. If you have been searching for deeper purpose, meaning, and authentic faith, this message will challenge you to shift from a consumer mindset into a contributor identity, showing you how a servant's heart transforms your home, your church, your community, and your workplace.Key Takeaways From This Message:- Discover True Kingdom Greatness: Learn how to exchange the exhausting world-driven pursuit of status for Jesus' definition of true impact—giving your life away for the good of others.- Overcome the Barriers to Serving: Unmask the subtle enemies of a servant's heart, including self-centeredness, the idol of comfort, and the priority myth of "not having enough time."- Shift from Consumer to Contributor: Stop asking what your community or church can do for you, and discover the unmatched joy of asking how God can use you to lift the loads of those around you.- Develop a Transformed Identity: Realize that serving isn't just an optional spiritual gift or a seasonal task; it is the very essence of who you are as a true follower of Jesus.- Activate Your Faith Everywhere: Gain practical insight into how a servant's heart operates daily—bringing Christ's love directly into your marriage, your family, and your marketplace.

In Week 11 of our Welcomed. series, we explore the powerful truth that the gospel doesn't merely change what we believe—it transforms how we see and love people.In Acts 16:16–40, we encounter a remarkable collection of unlikely people brought together by the grace of God: a wealthy businesswoman, a formerly demon-oppressed slave girl, and a Roman jailer. Though their backgrounds, experiences, and social standing could not have been more different, each is welcomed into the family of God through the same gospel.As Paul and Silas endure opposition, injustice, and imprisonment, we see the contrast between a culture of welcome rooted in self-interest and the welcome of Jesus that begins with God. The gospel expands our vision of who God loves, reshapes our identity, and empowers us to love others with courage, humility, and grace—even in the midst of suffering.Join us as we discover how the welcome of Jesus transforms both our hearts and our relationships, creating a new kind of community centered on God's grace rather than our preferences.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.orgConnect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!Instagram: @integrity_churchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/liveintegrity/

Have you ever wondered: ✨ Is God speaking to me? ✨ How do I know if it's God or just my own thoughts? ✨ What if I miss what He's trying to tell me? If you've ever struggled to hear God's voice, this episode is for you. In Week 3 of our Holy Girl Summer series, we're diving into one of the most important parts of discovering your spiritual gifts and walking in your calling: learning to recognize the voice of God. Because you can't fully walk in your gifts if you're not listening to the One who gave them. In this episode, you'll learn:

What do you do when God says no? It's easy to give up and let the disappointment define your attitude towards God. But what if by being so focused on our own desired answer, we miss God actually trying to redirect us to something bigger?In Week 6 of “Comeback Stories,” we see Moses rebel against God and suffer the consequence of never getting to enter the Promised Land. He easily could've decided that was the end of his journey, but instead allowed God to use him to prepare a new leader. Moses teaches us to never abandon the assignment, even if God changes the outcome.
