Podcasts about pastor travis

In this gripping continuation of our End Times series, Pastor Travis Hearn unpacks a sobering truth: we are living in the very days the Bible warned us about. In When Right Becomes Wrong, he shines a prophetic light on today's cultural chaos—where deception reigns, morality is collapsing, and darkness is not just around us but rising within us. From AI and mind-controlled tech to the rise of alternative gospels and false prophets, this message exposes how society is embracing the counterfeit while rejecting the truth. Drawing from 2 Timothy 3, Matthew 24, and Revelation 13, Pastor Travis reveals that these aren't just bizarre headlines—they are signs, prophecies fulfilled, and spiritual red flags waving right before our eyes. But in the midst of the darkness, there is a divine promise. God is not silent. He is pouring out His Spirit on all flesh. The enemy may be establishing a system of control, but heaven is orchestrating revival. You'll walk away not just awakened—but armed with biblical clarity, spiritual urgency, and unshakable hope. This is not a message to watch later. This is a message for right now. “When people reject truth, they receive the counterfeit. But when they seek the Truth, they find Jesus.”

Pastor Travis explains that spiritual sickness begins when we stop listening to God.

In 2017 I was baptized by Pastor Travis Graham and spent the next two years attending his church, Valley Grove Church in Thomaston, Georgia. Travis is a 40 year old pastor with the heart of colonial America pastoring. The church he stewards is 134 years old. He carries that legacy even today, always available, supporting his congregation and community, while raising a family, hunting, farming and loving Jesus. He is a reminder of the simple and pure walk of staying in the word, being obedient to God and loving Jesus.  #BardsFM #CountryChurch #LovingJesus Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com BardsFM CAP, Celebrating 50 Million Downloads: https://ambitiousfaith.net Morning Intro Music Provided by Brian Kahanek: www.briankahanek.com MYPillow promo code: BARDS Go to https://www.mypillow.com/bards and use the promo code BARDS or...

End Times Part I: How Close Are We? | Pastor Travis Hearn | Impact Church

What if we're closer than we think? In this powerful and eye-opening message, Pastor Travis Hearn launches a brand new series exploring the signs of the End Times—and what the Bible truly says about the days we're living in. With headlines echoing biblical prophecy, global chaos increasing, and spiritual deception rising, many are asking: How close are we? Through Matthew 24, Daniel 12, and 1 Thessalonians 4, Pastor Travis reveals what Jesus and the prophets foretold: a time marked by wars and rumors of wars, false messiahs, moral collapse, and a knowledge explosion unlike anything in history. From bizarre rapture predictions to the surge of spiritual confusion, this message separates truth from fiction and anchors us in God's unshakable Word. This isn't about fear. It's about preparation.
It's not a countdown to panic—it's a wake-up call to purpose. With passion and urgency, this message challenges us to: * Discern deception in a distracted world * Stay spiritually alert while others drift * Share the gospel with urgency and boldness * Live ready for the return of Jesus Christ As the clock of eternity ticks louder, the question isn't if Jesus is coming back. It's are you ready? Don't miss Part 1 of this timely and prophetic series.

Pastor Travis continues the Vitals of a Disciple series with a crucial reminder that our spiritual heart is the key indicator of our spiritual health.

We all want revival. We cry out for God to move in our lives, our churches, and our nation. But what if the move of God we're praying for is waiting on us to move first? In this soul-stirring final message of the Heal Our Land series, Pastor Travis Hearn delivers a prophetic and powerful word: Revival doesn't come without repentance. Drawing from 2 Chronicles 7:14, Pastor Travis breaks open the truth that God has already prescribed the remedy for a sick nation—humble yourself, pray, seek His face, and turn from your wicked ways. Only then will God hear from heaven, forgive our sins, and heal our land. This message will challenge you to look in the mirror, confront what's been hidden, and step into the healing power of true repentance. With raw transparency and biblical boldness, Pastor Travis reminds us that conviction isn't God's way of condemning—it's His invitation to transformation. Repentance isn't about shame—it's about freedom. Whether you're weighed down by guilt, yoked to toxic relationships, or simply yearning for more of God, this sermon is your turning point. You're only one decision away from revival. One step from freedom. One turn away from God's overwhelming grace.

Pastor Travis starts a new series about our spiritual health.

Hebrews 3 with Pastor Travis!

Drawing from Matthew 20 and 1 Peter 2, it challenges believers to shift from a consumer mindset to a servant identity. Jesus modeled greatness through humility, and calls us to do the same—offering spiritual sacrifices as priests in His house. Serving isn't about convenience, but calling, and grace doesn't cancel effort, it empowers it. If Jesus picked up a towel, we can too.

Maybe you've walked into a church before and felt like you were on the outside looking in. Or maybe you're just trying to figure out if there's more to life than success, comfort, and checking boxes. This week at Generations Church, we're asking a bold question: What if the very thing you've been searching for… has actually been searching for you? Jesus once told a story about a woman who lost a coin. She turned her house upside down looking for it. When she found it, she threw a party. That's what God's like. He's not angry. He's looking. He's obsessed with finding what's missing. And maybe… that's you. In this message, we explore: Why we all feel a little lost at times How comfort, safety, and “success” can become distractions What Jesus actually meant when He said He came for “the one” Why church isn't just for “church people” The difference between religion and relationship Whether you're skeptical of faith or just not sure what you believe, this message is for you. You don't have to have it all figured out. You just have to be open to the possibility that you matter deeply to a God who's not trying to judge you, but find you. Take your next step.

We will not be silent! A strong message from Pastor Travis. Folks we need to pray for this country. We pray blessings and healing over you in Jesus name during this difficult time.

The world is broken. Cities are bleeding. Families are grieving. And evil is parading through our streets like it owns the place. From churches to schools, from headlines soaked in horror to hearts shattered in silence—our land is crying out for healing. But heaven is sounding a different cry: WAKE UP. In this urgent and unfiltered opening to the Heal Our Land series, Pastor Travis Hearn delivers a prophetic and passionate message that cuts through the noise and calls the Church to rise from spiritual slumber. This is more than a sermon—it's a wake-up call to a sleeping generation. Drawing from Romans 13:11-12, 2 Chronicles 7:14, and Ephesians 5:14, Pastor Travis challenges believers to shake off complacency and step into their true identity, divine responsibility, and holy opportunity. The battle isn't just out there—it's in us. We must wake up to who we are in Christ, live like who we are, and recognize the urgency of this hour. You were born for such a time as this. Not to scroll, but to sow. Not to spectate, but to serve. Not to retreat, but to revive. God is looking for a people who won't just mourn the darkness, but who will shine His light into it. Revival doesn't start in politics. It starts in prayer. It doesn't begin in Washington. It begins in worship. And it doesn't come from the world. It comes from you. The hour has come. The alarm is ringing. It's time to wake up.

Pastor Travis discusses the parable of the vineyard and the wicked husbandmen set to take care it.

Pastor Travis transitions into a classic parable showing how much God loves a sinner who comes home!

This week's sermon kicks off our new series The Book of Daniel. Listen in as Pastor Travis opens up Daniel chapter 1 and talks about the importance of setting boundaries.

This powerful message from Pastor Travis dives deep into Matthew 5:6: "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled."Whatever FEEDS you will ultimately FILL you. The question is—what are you consuming?In this sermon, we learn:— To love God is to love His Word (John 1:1)— What we feed grows, and what we starve dies (Genesis 4:7)— Temptation doesn't start outside of us—it starts within (James 1:14–15)— Whatever you consume can eventually consume you— We must stop returning to dead things expecting life (Judges 14:6–9)— Jesus is the only true source of lasting satisfaction (John 7:37–39)It's time to take inventory of our spiritual diet. Are we feeding our flesh with temporary pleasures, or feeding our spirit with the Word and presence of God?If you're thirsty, Jesus says, “Come to Me and drink.” Rivers of living water are available to all who believe!Let this message stir your hunger for righteousness and reset your appetite for the things of God.Like, comment, and share this message with someone who needs a spiritual shift today!

In this teaching, Pastor Travis discusses why we should build relational boundaries and how to create boundaries that will help your relationships thrive.

Have you ever tried to outrun God? In this unforgettable finale to the Psalm 23 series, Pastor Travis Hearn brings a raw, heart-grabbing word about the relentless pursuit of God's love. Through vivid storytelling—from childhood games of chase to real-life moments of spiritual resistance—Pastor Travis illustrates how God's goodness and mercy are not just passive companions, but divine forces actively chasing us down, even when we run. Drawing from Psalm 23:6, this message reveals the Hebrew depth behind the words tov (goodness) and chesed (mercy)—God's abundant kindness and His unbreakable, covenant love. You'll discover that these aren't just theological concepts—they are the very heartbeat of God running after you, even in your darkest valleys, deepest regrets, and most rebellious moments. From Jonah's stormy detour to the prodigal son's homecoming, this message will stir your soul and challenge your heart to stop running and surrender to the God who never gives up on you. His mercy meets you in the barbed wire of your failures. His goodness shines even in the storms. And His love chases you all the way home—to healing, restoration, and eternity. It's time to stop running. It's time to taste and see that the Lord is good.

Pastor Travis continues this series discussing two related parables about the lost sheep and the lost silver coin showing just how much God loves seeking and finding the lost!

What if the very people who counted you out... had to watch God raise you up? In this powerful continuation of our Psalm 23 series, Pastor Travis Hearn brings a word that will ignite your spirit and shift your mindset. Drawing from Psalm 23:5, this message paints a vivid picture of divine vindication: “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.” David had just walked through the valley of the shadow of death, but now, God flips the script. The Shepherd becomes a Chef. The battlefield becomes a banquet. And your enemies? They become your audience. You may be surrounded by haters, doubt, disease, failure, or fear—but God doesn't wait until they disappear to bless you. He blesses you right in front of them. He anoints your head with oil, marking you for purpose, covering your mind, and empowering you with the Holy Spirit. And your cup? It doesn't just fill—it overflows. Through every attack, every dark night, and every setback, you didn't quit. You overcame. You healed, got back up, and moved forward—in the presence of your enemies. This isn't just a sermon. It's a declaration. A celebration. A feast in the face of your fiercest battles. So to every doubter, hater, and enemy of your purpose, go ahead… grab a seat. God's gonna cook. So WATCH ME EAT.

Pastor Travis reminds us of the dangers of covetousness and greed.

The Devil Will Pay for This – Part 2” | Pastor Travis Greene | Forward City ChurchThe story of Job reminds us of a powerful truth: no matter what the enemy tries to steal, God is able to restore—and He doesn't just give it back, He multiplies it.

Pastor Travis explores the seasons of life through a spiritual lens, guided by the timeless wisdom of Scripture. Just like the natural world, our lives journey through Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter, each phase bringing its own challenges and blessings. In this teaching, we delve into how the Holy Spirit renews us in Spring, invites us to rest in Summer, prunes us in Fall, and sustains us through the stillness of Winter. Discover how to navigate these spiritual seasons with faith and resilience, trusting that God is at work in every moment. Whether you're experiencing growth, rest, change, or uncertainty, be encouraged that the Holy Spirit remains with you, offering transformation and hope. Tune in to reflect on the season you're in and embrace the Spirit's faithful presence in your life.

What if your darkest valley is actually the birthplace of your greatest victory? In Part 5 of our powerful journey through Psalm 23, Pastor Travis Hearn delivers a soul-stirring message that takes us deep into one of the most battlefield-ready verses in the Bible: “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me…” (Psalm 23:4 NKJV). Drawing from personal stories and biblical depth, Pastor Travis brings to life the raw reality of valley seasons—places of heartbreak, loss, fear, and uncertainty—and reveals how God's presence, provision, preparation, and protection are most alive in those very moments. You'll walk through the ancient terrain of Wadi Qelt, the literal Valley of the Shadow of Death, and discover that valleys aren't destinations—they're passageways. This isn't just a sermon. It's a declaration for every weary soul: You're not stuck. You're not alone. You're being shaped for victory. From David slaying giants in the Valley of Elah, to dry bones rising in Ezekiel's vision, to Jesus calling Himself the Light that shatters shadows—this message will help you see that your valley is not the end. It's the beginning of your breakthrough. Stop cursing your valley. Start claiming your destiny. You are just passing through... and victory is waiting on the other side.

Pastor Travis reminds us of our responsibility to forgive others because of just how much we were forgiven for.

We've all wandered. Sometimes it's loud rebellion, other times it's quiet distraction—but whether it's chasing pleasure, running from pain, or drifting in disappointment, we find ourselves far from the heart of God. In this powerful message from Psalm 23:3, Pastor Travis Hearn reminds us that no matter how far we've gone, God's mercy will outrun our mistakes, His love will pierce the darkness, and His faithfulness will never fail. Through the stories of Adam and Eve, David, Jonah, Peter, and even the prodigal son, we see the same truth—God never gives up on His people. You are never too far gone. You're just one choice away from turning around and stepping into restoration, freedom, and purpose. If you've been lost in the wilderness, weighed down by shame, or convinced you're beyond hope, this is your “come to your senses” moment. Your comeback is not just about your victory—it's about God's glory. And when His name is on your life, your story becomes living proof of His power. It's time to rise up. It's time to come home. Because even when we are fragile, He is so, so faithful.

Pastor Travis begins a new series surrounding the seemingly simple parables Jesus taught but that contained so much depth! Episode 1 begins with the parable of the builders!

In this teaching, Pastor Travis continued our Everyday Spirit series with a timely message about our relationship with technology. He explored how the way we engage online is shaping who we're becoming offline. In other words: your feeds are feeding you. That's why it's wise to invite the Holy Spirit to help you discern your digital diet—because what you consume shapes your heart and soul. Pastor Travis shares three ways that you can begin to reclaim a healthy digital diet and a healthier soul.

Right between soul fatigue and soul restoration lies the battlefield of your faith. In Part 3 of our Psalm 23 Collection, Pastor Travis Hearn delivers a prophetic “bonus track” message that shakes the very foundations of compromise. Rooted in the sacred words of Psalm 23 and the fiery showdown on Mount Carmel, Don't Bow to Baal is a call to holy defiance—a divine interruption between green pastures and soul restoration. This isn't just another sermon. It's a spiritual wake-up call. With piercing conviction and biblical power, Pastor Travis reveals how the enemy strikes hardest when you're most vulnerable—right after the breakthrough, right after the blessing. Baal may no longer be a statue, but its spirit is alive and thriving in our culture. In the pressures of popularity, comfort, and conformity—will you stand, or will you bow? Drawing from Elijah's confrontation with Baal, Jesus' wilderness temptation, and the unwavering fireproof faith of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, this message ignites courage to stand when everyone else bows. It calls you to rebuild your altar, reignite your fire, and renounce every idol fighting for the throne of your heart. The line has been drawn. No more wavering. No more silence. No more compromise. If you don't bow—you won't burn. The fire isn't your end; it's where God reveals Himself. Welcome to the holy resistance. DON'T BOW TO BAAL.

Pastor Travis continues the second episode of this series warning us that some temptations use just enough of the truth to appear righteous.

In the final week of our series, Nevertheless, Pastor Travis talks about the importance of trusting God and remembering Him for more than just what He does.

When life feels like more than you can handle, it's not a sign of failure—it's an invitation to encounter God's presence, purpose, and power. Pastor Travis teaches on how the Holy Spirit uses pressure not to crush us, but to form us.

Does anybody need something from God today? In this powerful and deeply personal message, Pastor Travis Hearn explores the raw truth of our human condition—how desperately needy we are for something greater than ourselves. Whether you're praying for healing, a breakthrough, a prodigal child's return, financial provision, or a second chance, this message is for you. Drawing from Psalm 23 and Philippians 4:19, Pastor Travis reminds us that God is not just a shepherd—He is your shepherd. And because He is your shepherd, you shall not want. You have everything you need. Even in your deepest valley or driest desert, My God Shall Supply dives into four eternal truths: 1. God knows WHAT you need—He is the source, not just a resource. 2. God knows WHEN you need it—His timing is always perfect. 3. God knows WHY you need it—there's divine purpose in the pain. 4. God knows HOW to provide it—His ways are higher, more miraculous than you can imagine. This is not just a sermon—it's a call back to the well that never runs dry. Stop scraping empty wells of the world and start drinking from the overflowing, living water of Jesus Christ. Let this message be your reminder: your failures can't drain His supply, your needs can't deplete His riches, and your past can't cancel His promises. The Lord is your Shepherd. You lack nothing.
My God Shall Supply.

This message will challenge how you see relationships and remind you that breakthrough often happens together.

Pastor Travis reminds us of the purpose of light!

WHEN GOD CLOSES A DOOR | Pastor Travis Greene | Forward City ChurchWhat do you do when God says no?In this powerful message, Pastor Travis unpacks Acts 16 and reminds us that a closed door is not a denial—it's divine direction. Paul and Silas were blocked twice by the Holy Spirit, not because they were out of order, but because God was setting them up for something greater.

Ever wonder what might be holding you or your team back—and you don't even see it?In Episode 172 of the Fly on the Wall Podcast, Chris Sonksen sits down with Pastor Travis for a conversation every church leader needs to hear: how to identify and address leadership blind spots before they cost you momentum, people, or growth.Blind spots aren't just about personal habits—they show up in our team dynamics, our leadership style, and the decisions we avoid making. But the good news?

In Part 4 of We Need to Talk, Pastor Travis shared how healing begins when our goal is restoration, not being right. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5, he reminded us that God gave us the ministry of reconciliation—meaning we're called to bring people together, not push them away. He broke down five keys to healthy communication: the right tone, the right time, the right trust, the right truth, and the right team. Our words carry the power of life and death, and when spoken with grace and love, they can restore even the most fractured relationships. It's not about winning arguments—it's about winning people.
