In week 1 of Hearing God, Pastor Josh talks about living in the loudest moment in history and still wondering whether God is saying anything at all, the honest question underneath that, and what Scripture shows us about a God who has never once stopped speaking. It isn't a speaking issue, it's a hearing issue. Walking through a boy named Samuel who learned to hear God in a generation that had mostly quit listening, he gives three simple ways to prepare a place where you can actually hear Him, and one prayer you can start praying today. And he'll show you that the God who has been speaking since page one is still calling you by name.
In this message, guest speakers Trey & Serah Garrett talk about the stress, fear, and discouragement that can take over our minds, why the thoughts we keep dwelling on end up steering our whole lives, and how to recognize the enemy's lies for what they are. And they'll show you that God has already given you power, love, and a sound mind… and in Christ, you are more than a conqueror!
In this message, Pastor Josh talks about the headlines that make it feel like the world is coming apart, the question underneath them that most people never say out loud, and why Jesus' warning in Matthew 24 was never meant to frighten His church. And he'll show you that the thief is only a thief to the people who weren't watching, that you are the house God actually lives in, and how to close the openings a storm left behind before something moves in.
In this message, Pastor Josh talks about the bitter places we all end up in, why some people camp there and some people pass through, and how to tell if bitterness has gotten into your spirit without you noticing. And he'll show you what God has already put in place for the thing you're walking through right now.
Jesus promised that anyone who believes in Him would do greater works than He did. But greater things aren't just handed out. Some mountains God moves for you. Some mountains God tells you to climb, because your inheritance is on top of them. There's more ground to take. Israel spent 40 years circling one hill. Circling feels safe, but nothing ever changes. Ten spies felt like grasshoppers in their own sight. Caleb saw the same giants and at 85 years old asked for the mountain that still had giants on it. We're not climbing in our own strength. A yoke isn't a vacation. It's work equipment built for two, and the stronger one carries the weight. Jesus climbed first and anchored the rope with His own body. We still climb, but we climb clipped in. God defines great different than we do. A widow gave two mites and Jesus said she gave more than all of them. It was never the amount. It was the posture of the heart. Pastor Josh walks through Deuteronomy 2, Joshua 14, Colossians 1 and Mark 12, then lands on 1 Corinthians 2:10. God has revealed them to us. That promise is for right now. Stop praying safe prayers. Greater Things!
Vision Sunday In this Vision Sunday message, Pastor Josh shares the heart of The Gathering Place… the vision, the mission, and what God has called us to do and who He has called us to be. 1. New Address. Same Assignment. Paul wrote to a church that didn't own a sign, an address, or a single key, and told them they were God's building. A building doesn't make the church. God does. Nothing about our heart is changing, and that includes being unashamedly led by the Holy Spirit, where the gifts are for today and the fruit is the evidence. 2. A bigger table means room for more. The master in Jesus' story didn't say invite them. He said compel them. We're not getting a bigger place so we can look bigger. We're getting a bigger table so more people can taste the love of Jesus. 3. We are (Re)presenting the King. If the world will put on a first-class production for a product that fades, the church can bring our best for the King who never will. That's why the details matter, all the way down to what the lobby smells like. Then three things simple enough to start today. Save a seat. Take your place. Pray them in.
In week 3 of MORE THAN ABLE, Pastor Josh opens 1 Kings 17 and the story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath to answer the question that keeps people up at night: God can provide, but is He willing to do it for me? From ravens and a jar of flour that never ran dry to modern stories of God's faithfulness, this message will build your faith that the God who fed a widow in a famine is your source today.
In week two of MORE THAN ABLE, Pastor Josh steps into Daniel 3 with three Hebrew men who faced the furnace and refused to bow. Discover the faith that says but if not… I won't bow, the fourth Man who stands with you in the flames, and why the only thing your fire can burn is what had you bound.
In week one of MORE THAN ABLE, Pastor Josh opens Ephesians 3:20 and Hebrews 11:6 to reveal a God who is not barely able, not just able… He is more than able. Discover why your faith makes His heart come alive, why small faith in a big God still moves mountains, and three simple things you can start doing today… because with Jesus, there is more.
HOLY // Week 4: YHWH Above All The series finale. The name so holy Israel wouldn't say it out loud put on skin, and heaven gave Him the name above every name. So is He exalted in your life like He's exalted in heaven? Three ways to get Him there: dying daily, walking in the Spirit, choosing love. And the promise that runs through it all... you can't out-honor God. Exalt Him, and holy happens. YHWH above all!
