Pastor Everett delivers a powerful message about moving from a mindset of lack to one of abundance in 2020. He challenges the congregation to examine what's inside their hearts versus what appears on the outside, emphasizing that true transformation must come from within. Through the biblical stories of Jonah and Jesus sleeping during storms, he reveals how both problems and solutions can be 'asleep' in our lives, calling believers to wake up to God's purposes.

The message culminates in a call to go deeper in faith through corporate fasting and prayer. Pastor Everett announces a 21-day church-wide fast, encouraging members to give up various things - from television to food to habits - to draw closer to God's presence. He emphasizes that fasting isn't for the strong but for those who recognize their need for divine intervention and breakthrough in their lives and community.

In this powerful message exploring the life of Abraham, we discover what it truly means to be children of promise and how the father of our faith waited 25 years to see God's promises fulfilled. Through Abraham's journey from receiving God's call to giving everything to Isaac, we learn about the ongoing battle between flesh and spirit in our own lives and the choice we all must make to rise.

The message challenges us to examine our own willingness to give all that we have to God, just as Abraham did. We explore the struggle of waiting on God's timing versus creating our own solutions, the power of faith to see in the spirit before it manifests in the flesh, and ultimately how our identity as living stones qualifies our confession as a holy priesthood. This teaching reminds us that we are God's purpose and His plan flows through us to others.

In this powerful message from the "Rise" series, Pastor Everett explores how God sees not just our actions, but the very thoughts and intentions of our hearts. Drawing from the story of Noah in Genesis 6, he reveals how we stand between two mirrors daily - one showing our natural reflection and another showing our spiritual condition through God's Word.

The message emphasizes that God is always watching with love, not condemnation, because we were created in His image. Like Noah, who found grace but had to work for 100 years building the ark while facing constant ridicule, our relationship with God requires both receiving His grace and taking action. Pastor Everett challenges listeners to stop hiding the light within them and to let God's love shine through their daily interactions, declaring that we are destined for greatness, not the gutter.

In this powerful message, Pastor Everett addresses one of the most common barriers to spiritual growth: the spirit of rejection. He explores how rejection, whether experienced professionally, personally, or publicly, can create infertile ground in our hearts that prevents God's Word from taking root and producing fruit in our lives.

Using the parable of the seed and soil from Mark 4, Pastor Everett explains that while God's Word is always true and powerful, it requires fertile ground—a heart willing to receive and agree with God's truth rather than reject it. He shares personal stories of facing rejection and demonstrates how even Jesus understands rejection, having been "the stone which the builders rejected." The message emphasizes that we have a choice: we can either come into agreement with God's Word or allow rejection to build walls that block His transformative power.

This sermon challenges listeners to examine their hearts and ask whether they are fertile soil ready to receive God's truth, or if they need to uproot the spirit of rejection that may be hindering their spiritual growth and identity in Christ.

This powerful message challenges listeners to examine where they're placing their focus and what voice they're choosing to agree with in their lives. Pastor Everett explores the profound truth that God is present in the midst of every situation - both the ones we love and the ones we struggle with - and calls for a radical refocusing on His word rather than our circumstances.

Drawing from Matthew 18:18-20 and John 15:1-3, the message emphasizes that real change comes through the spoken word of God, not through our own efforts or emotions. The pastor challenges the congregation to move beyond being consumers to becoming investors, reproducing the fruit of God's character in their lives for others. He addresses the spirit of rejection and calls for authentic transformation that starts from the inside out, warning against the hypocrisy of trying to fix ourselves in our own power.

The message concludes with an encouraging reminder that as children of God, we are truly free - free from paying rent on what has already been purchased through Christ. It's a call to take risks, embrace the spirit of excellence, and trust God with the changes He wants to make in our lives.

In this powerful message, Pastor Everett explores the profound truth found in Matthew 18:18-20 about binding and loosing, challenging listeners to examine what they've allowed to be bound in their lives. Drawing from the reality that Jesus was bound to a cross on earth so we could walk free, this sermon confronts the spirit of rejection that keeps many Christians living below their blessing despite being chosen and accepted by God.

Through an examination of the enemy's character and tactics, Pastor Everett reveals how misinterpretation of truth keeps believers trapped in cycles of rejection and limitation. He emphasizes that submission to God, not resistance to the devil, is the key to walking in freedom. The message culminates in a powerful declaration that new management has arrived in our lives - we are accepted, chosen, and blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places, waiting to be loosed on earth through our choices and actions.

In this powerful message, we explore what it means to be promoted to manager of your own life, with Jesus as the owner. Through a deep dive into John 15:9-13 and Psalm 1, we discover that true spiritual growth comes from staying connected to the source rather than focusing on our limited resources. Like a tree planted by rivers of water, we're designed to draw from God's endless supply of love, joy, and strength.

The message challenges us to examine who truly manages our daily decisions and responses. When circumstances hit - whether it's financial loss, rejection, or disappointment - we have a choice: remain bitter or return to the source. Our identity as children of God must be stronger than our need to understand why difficult things happen. As we learn to let God's love flow through us rather than trying to contain it for ourselves, we discover that joy and peace aren't dependent on our circumstances but on our connection to the source of all life.

In this powerful message, Pastor explores the transformative nature of God's love and the essential role of His Word in spiritual growth. Drawing from 1 Peter 2:1-3, he emphasizes that when love—Jesus—enters our lives, we are never left the same. True spiritual transformation requires laying aside malice, guile, hypocrisy, envy, and evil speaking to embrace God's plan for change rather than trying to fix ourselves.

The heart of the message centers on developing a childlike desire for God's Word, comparing it to a newborn baby's natural craving for milk. Pastor challenges listeners to make a daily commitment to reading Scripture, sharing his personal practice of reading at least one verse before sleep each night. He explains that spiritual growth is impossible without consistently taking in God's Word, and that this desire for Scripture is itself a gift from God that must be cultivated through discipline and commitment.

This powerful message explores what it means to be complete in Christ, challenging listeners to move beyond feelings-based faith to a deep knowing of their identity as children of God. The speaker examines Colossians 2:8-10, emphasizing that in Christ dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily, and believers are complete in Him who is the head of all principality and power.

The message addresses the conflict over control that many Christians face - wanting to control their circumstances while Jesus calls them to surrender. Through personal testimony about loss and God's comfort, the speaker demonstrates how believers can be sources of comfort to others even in the midst of their own struggles. The key theme centers on declaring God's truth over circumstances rather than living defeated in the middle of difficult situations, choosing joy as a response rather than allowing circumstances to dictate emotional responses.

In this powerful message, Pastor Everett explores the profound gift of peace that Jesus promises to leave with His followers. Drawing from John 16:7 and John 14:27, he examines how true peace comes not from controlling our circumstances, but from surrendering to God's greater purpose and allowing His presence to transform our daily lives.

The discussion delves into the challenging concept that growth requires discomfort, and that as believers, we're called to live differently from the world's culture. Pastor Everett emphasizes that peace is evidence of the Holy Spirit's work in our lives, and challenges listeners to give more of their time and attention to God, recognizing that He wants to bring out the best in us even when it means stepping outside our comfort zones.
