“The same man we saw at the pulpit was the same man we saw at home.”-Dave Stone on his father Sam. On this special Fathers Day week special, former Southeast Christian pastor Dave Stone talks about his father Sam's legacy, and how it affects him and the rest of the Stone family. (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!)

Pastor Dave teaches from the book of Joel. Joel comes with a call to repentence. The consequences of sin altimatley lead us to what we know as "the last days". Joel gives us a glimpse into what those times will look like as a warning. God warns us because He loves us and in that warning, He expects us to respond.

(Habakkuk) There are moments when God feels wrong—when His silence pierces, His timing confuses, and His ways seem unbearable. Like Habakkuk, we cry out not just in confusion but in what feels like betrayal: "How could You?" But God invites us into the tension—not to suppress it, but to bring it honestly before Him. The answer isn't always clarity or resolution. The answer is learning to live by faith: to wait on His timing and to anchor our hope in His unchanging character. Even when the fig tree doesn't blossom and every security fails, we can still find strength in the God who makes our feet sure in the chaos.

Pastor Dave emphasizes the importance of Father's Day and the need for honoring fathers in a culture that often overlooks them. He draws parallels between biblical figures, such as King David and his instructions to Solomon, highlighting that true strength comes from obedience to God's word. Pastor Dave encourages men to be vigilant and act like God-designed men, recognizing that their actions have generational consequences. Ultimately, he calls for men to trust in God, put on the armor of faith, and stand firm in their commitment to Christ for a fulfilling legacy.1 Kings 2:1-4 1 When the time drew near for David to die, he gave a charge to Solomon his son.2 “I am about to go the way of all the earth,” he said. “So be strong, act like a man, 3 and observe what the Lord your God requires: Walk in obedience to him, and keep his decrees and commands, his laws and regulations, as written in the Law of Moses. Do this so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you go 4 and that the Lord may keep his promise to me: ‘If your descendants watch how they live, and if they walk faithfully before me with all their heart and soul, you will never fail to have a successor on the throne of Israel.'1 Corinthians 16:13-14 13 Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. 14 Let all that you do be done in love.Matthew 18:8-98 And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire. 9 And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into the hell of fire.

Getting My ACTs Together Pt. 8Most fathers feel inadequate, and they are constantly reminded of this. Believe it or not, that is a good thing. Pastor Dave inspires us to embrace our inadequacies on this Father's Day and to find our true adequacy in Someone else.

Today is a day to honor fathers, but also to acknowledge the reality that none of us are perfect. Every dad carries regrets, failures, and moments of brokenness, yet God is not limited by our imperfections. In fact, God specializes in using broken people—imperfect fathers, flawed men, and those who feel disqualified by their past. Throughout history, God has fulfilled His purposes through men who made serious mistakes, from Abraham and Moses to Gideon and David. Their stories remind us that God does not require perfection, but rather a willing and humble heart.God knows our weaknesses and remembers that we are but dust. Just as a compassionate father forgives his children, God extends grace and forgiveness to us. Our failures do not disqualify us from being used by God; instead, they become opportunities for His grace to shine through. The key is to stop believing the lie that we must be flawless to be good fathers. Instead, we are called to invite God into our weaknesses, to reflect on the ways He has already worked through us, and to trust that He is not finished with our story.God redeems our failures for His purposes. Even when others intend harm, God can turn it for good, as seen in the life of Joseph. Our past mistakes, when owned with humility and confessed openly, can become testimonies that bring hope and healing to others. Walking in repentance is not a sign of weakness, but of strength and authenticity. When we model repentance and forgiveness in our homes, we teach our children how to fail forward and experience God's grace.God blesses the faithful, not the flawless. Integrity is not about never failing, but about being genuine, confessing our shortcomings, and moving forward in faith. Every father has a calling to lead his family, not by being perfect, but by being real—pointing their children to a perfect God through their own redeemed lives. God delights in using broken vessels, and our brokenness, when surrendered to Him, becomes a channel for His blessing. As long as we are here, God is not done with us. Let us walk in humility, trust in His mercy, and remain faithful, knowing that His blessing rests on us.

New Life - New Language Pt5

Life rarely turns out the way we envision—and when our dreams unravel, what do we do next? In this powerful message, Pastor Dave takes us through the story of Ruth and Naomi to show how God redeems brokenness and transforms pain into purpose. Discover how to cultivate a shareable faith, trust God through rejection, and live out His will daily—even when the path looks nothing like you expected. This is a message of encouragement for anyone walking through disappointment, bitterness, or transition. Listen in and be reminded: your scars don't disqualify you—God can use them to shape your destiny.

What if it took a near-death experience to wake you up to God's calling on your life?   In this powerful episode of The Super Human Life, Pastor Dave Scarlett shares the radical moment that shattered his corporate identity and launched him into a global mission to bring faith and freedom to a billion souls. But this conversation isn't just about Pastor Dave's story—it's about what God is calling YOU to do.   We unpack the real meaning of faith in a world full of noise, why tradition isn't enough, and how the enemy uses comfort, technology, and confusion to keep men spiritually dead. Pastor Dave also shares hard-earned wisdom on marriage, forgiveness, and finding divine purpose—even if you're stuck in a corporate grind.   If you've ever questioned your faith, felt spiritually dry, or wondered if God still speaks—this conversation will ignite something inside of you.   This isn't religion. This is war. And it's time to suit up.    

How does one leave "well"? When something comes to an end, how do we bring it to a close in a God-honoring way? What lessons and wisdom does the Bible offer for how to leave a church, a community, or friends? How could leaving result in building and increasing our faith?! Walk with Pastor Dave as he explores a moment in history where the apostle Paul has a tearful farewell with a church that he planted, in Acts 20. What can Paul's example teach us about our own times to leave? And how can we glorify God even in sorrowful moments?

In this message, Pastor Dave Pretlove explores Jesus' healing of the bent-over woman in Luke 13:10–17 and reclaims Sabbath as more than rest—it's a declaration of freedom. From Deuteronomy 5 to the ministry of Jesus, Sabbath becomes a sacred space where we're invited to stop striving, resist what controls us, and receive soul-deep healing. Whether you're tired, hurried, or holding onto disappointment, this sermon offers a timely invitation: to let Sabbath ground you in the Gospel and point you toward the final freedom only Christ can give.

As we continue exploring what makes a healthy church, we would be remiss if we didn't cover the leader of the church, the pastor.  In this sermon, Pastor Dave walks us through what Pastors need to be doing to ensure they shepherd a healthy church.June 1, 2025

Pastor Steve and Pastor Dave discuss how the Bible and the church seek to form us, at our basic substance, into Christ-centered children of God and active members of the Body of Christ.

This week, we dive into one of the most misunderstood and powerful stories in the Bible—Bathsheba. Her story is one of heartbreak, abuse of power, deep loss, and ultimately, redemption. In this raw and hope-filled message, we explore how God meets us in our pain and can bring beauty from even the most broken places in our lives. If you've ever felt stuck in your past or disqualified by your story, this message is for you. God is a Redeemer—and He's not finished with you yet.

If you were starting up a new church and could only choose six things, what would you pick? Would you pick skilled people like a pastor or worship leader or evangelist? Would you pick important logistical things like a good location or musical instruments? Would you pick key ministries such as discipleship or children's programs or music or outreach? Would you pick six core values such as a warm welcome, forgiveness, or generosity? The question of what is most important in any Christian community has been asked for two thousand years! And the same answers still hold true! You might be surprised to find that the critical building blocks that the apostles Peter and Paul urged the earliest Christians to use were "soft-skills", not technical skills, location or ministry decisions, or even core values! The apostles knew that Christ-like behavior and attitudes are the true building blocks of any church or Christian community! Take a few minutes with Pastor Dave to consider the six building blocks of church that Peter instructs Christian exiles to build upon the cornerstone of Jesus Christ! And consider what you are building in your home and church!

Obadiah delivers a scorching rebuke against Edom—not merely for their violence, but for their passive indifference to the suffering of their brother, Israel. They stood aloof while injustice raged, and in doing so, became complicit in it. This message confronts us today: when we retreat behind walls of comfort, affluence, and emotional distance, we risk becoming like Edom—calloused, complicit, and under judgment. But God promises a great reversal where the oppressed and poor will be restored, vindicated, and even rule with Him. The gospel calls us not to climb away from the suffering but to enter in, to see ourselves in the faces of the vulnerable, and to participate—through compassion, justice, and long obedience—in God's redemptive plan. We must come out from our personal Petras and walk toward Mount Zion, where Christ reigns and restores the broken.

Pastor Dave emphasizes the profound impact our words have on our lives and the lives of those around us, urging us to realize that the tongue can bring both life and death. He illustrates how our speech can affect relationships, self-worth, and our spiritual maturity, urging listeners to speak positively and avoid negativity, gossip, and curses. The pastor reminds us that our words reflect our heart, and as we allow God to transform our hearts, we can change the words we express. Ultimately, he invites everyone to acknowledge their struggles with words and seek healing and freedom through God.Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.Matthew 12:36 I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak,James 3:2-12 2 For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. 3 Indeed, we put bits in horses' mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body. 4 Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires. 5 Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things.See how great a forest a little fire kindles! 6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell. 7 For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind. 8 But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. 10 Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so. 11 Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening? 12 Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh.Matthew 12:33-34 33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit. 34 Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

In this kickoff message to Best Summer Ever, Pastor Dave Pretlove challenges us to rethink how we view children—not as a distraction from the mission, but as the mission itself. Drawing from Mark 10, Matthew 18, and other key passages, this sermon unpacks the sacred opportunity we have to shape young hearts during their most formative years. If what happens early echoes for a lifetime, then how we invest in the next generation today matters more than ever. This is a call to legacy, to purpose, and to the kind of faith that makes room for the next generation.

In this concluding sermon of the "Chosen Exiles" series, Pastor Dave Bondeson unpacks 1 Peter 5:6-11, discussing our identity as followers of Christ in a world that's not our home. Key takeaways include the importance of depending on God by casting our anxieties on Him, defending our faith by being alert to spiritual warfare, and dreaming of our eternal future with Him. Pastor Dave challenges listeners to embrace their calling as chosen exiles, living righteously and expectantly in light of God's promises. Join us as we explore how to navigate the tension of the “already but not yet” in our spiritual journey.

In his sermon, Pastor Dave highlights the importance of faith being tested, illustrating that true faith can only be proven through trials, much like gold is refined in fire. He uses the stories of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego to emphasize that God is present with us in our trials, affirming that while faith may be challenged, believers should remain steadfast and trust in God's purpose. Pastor encourages the congregation not to run from the fire of life's challenges, as these experiences serve to refine and strengthen their character and faith. Ultimately, he reassures everyone that they are valuable to God, and through perseverance in their faith, they will witness God's deliverance and strength in their lives.Zechariah 13:9 cevThen I will purify them and put them to the test, just as gold and silver are purified and tested. They will pray in my name, and I will answer them; I will say, “You are my people,” and they will reply, “You, Lord, are our God!”Isaiah 43:2-3The Passion TranslationWhen you pass through the deep, stormy sea, you can count on me to be there with you. When you pass through raging rivers, You will not drown; When you walk through persecution like fiery flames, you will not be burned; the flames will not harm you, for I am your Savior, Yahweh, your mighty God, the Holy One of Israel!Daniel 3 - ESV King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, whose height was sixty cubits and its breadth six cubits. He set it up on the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.Daniel 3:12-14 There are certain Jews whom you have appointed over the affairs of the province of Babylon: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These men, O king, pay no attention to you; they do not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.” Then Nebuchadnezzar in furious rage commanded that Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego be brought. So they brought these men before the king. Nebuchadnezzar answered and said to them, “Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, that you do not serve my gods or worship the golden image that I have set up? Proverbs 20:6 NLT Many will say they are loyal friends, but who can find one who is truly reliable?Acts 4:19 NLT But Peter and John replied, “Do you think God wants us to obey you rather than him?Matthew 7:1 “Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 For with what [b]judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. 3 And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye'; and look, a plank is in your own eye? 5 Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.Daniel 3:24-30 - Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished and rose up in haste. He declared to his counselors, “Did we not cast three men bound into the fire?” They answered and said to the king, “True, O king.” He answered and said, “But I see four men unbound, walking in the midst of the fire, and they are not hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.” Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the door of the burning fiery furnace; he declared, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out, and come here!” Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out from the fire. And the satraps, the prefects, the governors, and the king's counselors gathered together and saw that the fire had not had any power over the bodies of those men. The hair of their heads was not singed, their cloaks were not harmed, and no smell of fire had come upon them. Nebuchadnezzar answered and said, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent his angel and delivered his servants, who trusted in him, and set aside the king's command, and yielded up their bodies rather than serve and worship any god except their own God. Therefore I make a decree: Any people, nation, or language that speaks anything against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego shall be torn limb from limb, and their houses laid in ruins, for there is no other god who is able to rescue in this way.” Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.I Peter 1:7-9  Pure gold put in the fire comes out of it proved pure; genuine faith put through this suffering comes out proved genuine. When Jesus wraps this all up, it's your FAITH, not your gold, that God will have on display as evidence of his victory. You never saw him, yet you love him. You still don't see him, yet you trust him - with laughter and singing. Because you kept on believing, you'll get what you're looking forward to: total salvation. Psalm 23:4 ESVEven though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

20250515- Pastor Dave Watson & Comedian Taylor Mason Talk PAE by That KEVIN Show

In this sermon, we explore the profound story of Mary, the mother of Jesus, beyond the familiar Christmas narrative. We delve into her journey of surrender, as she faced the life-altering message from the angel Gabriel, challenging her dreams and plans. Together, we reflect on the concept of surrendering our own wills to God's greater purpose, recognizing that true fulfillment comes not from pursuing our own ambitions, but from aligning ourselves with His divine plan. As we examine our own lives, we are encouraged to trust in the Lord wholeheartedly, acknowledging that His ways are higher and more fulfilling than our own. Through Mary's example, we are reminded that living a surrendered life is the path to true satisfaction and purpose.

James 1 and 2 explore the dangerous deception of thinking we can follow Jesus without obeying Him. James contrasts “hearing without doing” with the true mark of a disciple—costly but life-giving obedience. We will see that hearing feels like doing. One the other hand, doing feels like risk. This is the barrier we need to cross in order to go from "crowd" to "disciple." The vision of Mosaic is to call men and women to pick up their cross and follow Jesus with their lives- with a clear conviction that risk, obedience and suffering all lead to the life we are promised in Christ.
