Lead pastors Eric and Melissa Peoples launch our new series Living the Way

Pastor Mike, Missions Pastor at Elmbrook Church, joins Albo to talk about what it really looks like to reach men who are close to us—but far from God. This conversation gets practical. Pastor Mike shares stories, but more importantly, he challenges leaders to rethink how they live on mission. It's not about programs—it's about proximity, authenticity, and obedience. They also tackle the hard side of leadership: making difficult decisions when people don't align with your values, and why short-term discomfort often leads to long-term health. If you're leading a ministry, building relationships, or trying to live your faith out in the real world—this episode will push you to take action.

Most pastors lose their kids long before they realize it. And the reason isn't what you think.In this episode, Pastor Chris Donald sits down with his wife Chelsea and friends Mike & Emily for an honest roundtable on doing ministry WITH your family — not in spite of them.They unpack:• The moment Chelsea heard the Lord say, "I have need of him"• Why "the cost of the Great Commission is comfort"• How opening up your home changes everything• Why their kids ask three times a day, "Who's coming over today?"• The lie quietly destroying ministry familiesIf you've ever felt the tension between calling and family, this episode rewrites the entire frame.Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @thirtythirdcompanyConnect with 33rd Company: https://33rdcompany.orgFollow on Instagram: @33rdcompanyAction Step:Ask the Holy Spirit, “What's one place this week where I know God is asking me to step out?”Give Him your yes—and let us know in the comments how it goes.Resources and Links:Get equipped to share your faith: www.33rdcompany.orgConnect with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/33rdcompany33rdCompany YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thirtythirdcompany33rdCompany Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/33rdcompany/If you want to be equipped to share your faith and make disciples, text SEND ME to 59090.

In this opening message of the Why Church series, we explore Matthew 4:18–22 and uncover the heart behind Jesus' call to His first disciples. This sermon challenges us to rethink what the church truly is and why it matters, not just as a place we attend, but as a people called into a shared mission. As Jesus walks along the Sea of Galilee, He calls ordinary fishermen to follow Him. With just a few words, everything changes. They leave behind their nets, their livelihoods, and their plans to step into something far greater. This moment is not just a historical event. It is a picture of what it means to follow Jesus today. His call is not simply to believe something, improve our lives, or participate in a religious routine. His call is to Himself. In this sermon, we unpack three powerful phrases from Jesus' invitation. First, follow me. This is a call into relationship, not performance. Jesus does not ask for credentials or perfection. He calls people as they are and invites them to walk with Him. This reminds us that the foundation of the church is not built on what we do for God, but on being with Jesus. Second, I will make you. This is a promise of transformation. In a world that constantly tells us we must earn acceptance through achievement, success, or self improvement, Jesus offers something radically different. He takes responsibility for our growth and change. Transformation is not something we manufacture. It is something we receive as we surrender to Him. This is the heart of the gospel. Third, fishers of people. This is a call to purpose. Jesus does not separate following Him from living on mission. He gives His followers a new identity and a shared calling to invite others into relationship with Him. This is not a task reserved for a few. It is a defining part of what it means to be the church. As we follow Jesus, we help others encounter Him as well. This message also clarifies what the church is and what it is not. The church is not a building, a program, or a weekly event. It is the community of people who have surrendered their lives to Jesus across all time. When we understand this, everything changes. Church is no longer something we attend. It is who we are. Throughout this sermon, we are reminded that God's mission is to draw people to Himself, and He has chosen to work through His people to accomplish that purpose. This includes both our individual lives and our life together as a church family. Whether it is through everyday relationships, serving others, or creating opportunities for people to encounter Jesus, we are invited to participate in what God is already doing. If you have ever wondered why church matters, struggled with feeling disconnected, or questioned your purpose as a follower of Jesus, this message will challenge and encourage you. It calls us to move beyond passive faith and step into a life of intentional discipleship and mission. Join us as we begin this series and rediscover what it means to follow Jesus, be transformed by Him, and live on mission together as His church.

Missions, Rome, and the End (Kinda) | To the Ends of The Earth In Acts 28, Paul finally reaches Rome after years of obedience, hardship, and waiting. Even while under house arrest, he continues to welcome people, share the gospel, and teach about Jesus without hesitation. This message focuses on what it means to live on mission in everyday life. It challenges us to use our influence, recognize open doors, and move beyond simply knowing about Jesus to inviting others to follow Him. Key Insights: A godly reputation creates opportunities to influence others for Christ. Every season of life holds opportunities to share the gospel, even when circumstances are not ideal. Living on mission requires intentional awareness of the people and moments around us. Sharing truth should include both clear explanation and a direct invitation to respond. The mission of the gospel continues through each believer and is not limited to a specific time or place.

Do you feel like you're constantly trying to “fix” your life… but something still feels missing? You're trying to grow. To be better. To manage your home, your kids, your emotions, your routines… But deep down, there's still a gap. A lack of purpose. A feeling like no matter how much you improve… it's never quite enough. What if the problem isn't that you're doing too little… But that you're aiming at the wrong thing? In today's episode, we're talking about living on mission—and how shifting your focus from comfort to purpose changes everything. Because so many of us are unintentionally building our lives around what feels good, easy, or comfortable… And while those things aren't bad— They were never meant to be the goal. When comfort becomes the aim, we end up feeling empty, stuck, and easily shaken when life gets hard. But when you live on mission—God's mission— You gain something the world can't take away: Purpose. Clarity. Direction. And a deep, lasting fulfillment. Even in hard seasons. Even in chaos. Even when life doesn't look the way you expected. If you've been feeling stuck, unfulfilled, or like something is missing—this episode will help you realign your life with what actually matters. love, Brittany    Ready to become a peaceful wife and Mama?
