Pastor Brian teachers are growing in the favor of God.

The church can be both breathtakingly beautiful and painfully imperfect. It's a place where grace and brokenness meet, where real people walk out their faith together in all its messiness and complexity. In this final message of the series, Pastor Brian explores what it means to become a “Churchless Christian,” why that path leaves us vulnerable, and how God's vision for His people calls us into something far deeper and more powerful than going it alone.

28-09-2025 - The Power of Purpose - Pastor Brian Clothier by City Church

Jesus told us that we would do even greater works than He did—but what does that mean? We often aren't even bold enough to share our faith or overcome sins in our daily lives! But it's not up to us to convert people or produce spiritual fruit on our own! If we just get in the presence of God and behold His holiness, He will fill us with the power of the Holy Spirit. We'll be so full of awe that we can't keep God's love to ourselves! Let's behold the Lord's goodness today and watch what happens.
