Church on the Move: Roswell

In this Church on the Move Roswell message Youth Pastor Darius Bishop teaches from John 5:1–9, He shares Jesus’ question to the man sick for 38 years at the pool of Bethesda: “Would you like to get well?” He challenges listeners to consider whether they truly want freedom, since change often requires sacrifice and discomfort. The sermon gives three keys to being free: don’t let your community become your identity, change your focus from created things to the Creator, and remember that Jesus sees and knows you. Using examples from relationships, environments, and repeated patterns, he urges people to stop settling in places they were meant to walk through, pick up their “mat” as a testimony, and walk out of old sin and toxic spaces. The message ends with an invitation to salvation and a prayer of repentance and new life.

Logan from Church on the Move hosts Pastors Billy and Pastor Marco to discuss a recent sermon on serving: letting Jesus serve and cleanse you first (1 John 4:19; Jesus washing the disciples’ feet), serving like Jesus with humility and love (Mark 10:45; Philippians 2:5), and living a lifestyle of serving beginning at home (Galatians 5:13). They emphasize that serving flows from receiving Christ’s love, not religion, recognition, or “genie” faith, and that real authority is leading by example and love. They share practical illustrations, warn against serving for applause, encourage being available even when imperfect, and urge people not to let sin keep them from church or talking to others. The episode closes with a prayer to accept Jesus and a weekly challenge to serve one person in a practical way.

In this Church on the Move Roswell message Pastor Troy Smothermon teaches how to overcome fear and overwhelming circumstances by following Jehoshaphat’s example in 2 Chronicles 20: seek the Lord first through prayer and fasting, remember God’s past faithfulness, admit your limitations while keeping your eyes on Him, obey God’s instructions even when they seem unusual, and praise God before and after the victory. The sermon connects these principles to Jesus’ words about tribulation and overcoming in John 16:33 and to the messages to the seven churches in Revelation, highlighting overcoming lost first love, fear of suffering, compromise, corrupting influences like sexual immorality, and spiritual deadness.

It encourages availability, serving family and the household of faith, and ends with a call to salvation and a prayer for forgiveness, healing, and surrender to Jesus as Lord.

On this special episode of In The Room, we're sharing a Sunday night message from Dr. Sandy Kulkin about unleashing the supernatural in your life. Looking at the story of the Shunammite woman in 2 Kings, he talks about what it looks like to make room for God to move and trust Him even when things don't make sense. Dr. Kulkin challenges us to look beyond our circumstances, hold on to God's promises, and believe that the same God who worked miracles in the Bible is still working today. It's a great reminder that God wants to do more in our lives than we could ever accomplish on our own, but we have to be willing to trust Him and make room for the supernatural.

Pastor Troy Smothermon shares a message about what it really means to be a light in a dark world. Using Matthew 12:43–45, he explains why it's not enough to just remove the wrong things from our lives. We have to replace them with the right things. He talks about how genuine faith doesn't just change what we believe, but how we live, how we treat people, and what we do with the opportunities God gives us. Through Matthew 5:16 and Ephesians 5:18, Pastor Troy challenges us to stop simply complaining about the darkness around us and start doing something about it. He also reflects on Dr. Sandy Kulkin's recent visit and the importance of expecting God to move supernaturally through everyday believers. Whether it's in our homes, workplaces, schools, or communities, we're reminded that God hasn't called us to just recognize the problems around us. He's called us to carry His presence, love people, pray boldly, and let our light shine wherever we go.

On the In The Room podcast, Reed, Pastor Tim, and Chappy Reeves break down Pastor Troy’s core values message “Saved People Serve People,” emphasizing that we aren’t saved by serving, we’re saved for serving.

They explore the story of Tabitha in Acts 9:36–42 and how her simple acts of kindness left a lasting impact, reminding us that God sees the things we do even when no one else does. They also discuss the danger of keeping score in relationships, why serving starts at home, and what it looks like to serve without expecting something in return. Through Jesus washing the disciples’ feet in John 13, they unpack the truth that before we can truly serve Jesus, we first have to let Him serve us, receiving His grace, forgiveness, and mercy.
