In this Church on the Move Roswell message, Pastor Troy Smothermon continues his series on core values, reaffirming that God’s Word is the one infallible truth and introducing the third value: “It starts at home.” Using Joshua 24:15, he urges families to choose today to serve the Lord and teaches that ministry begins in the household, not by outsourcing spiritual leadership to the church. He explains that a strong home starts with two people who love Jesus first, then each other, and describes a triangle model where drawing closer to Christ brings spouses closer together. From Ephesians 5, he calls husbands to sacrificial, servant leadership and wives to respectful submission, emphasizing love, respect, repentance, and consistency at home. He closes with prayer for families and an invitation to surrender to Jesus Christ.

Pastors Billy, Pastor Brett, and Pastor Marco discuss Pastor Shawn’s sermon series “Without a Doubt,” centered on staying rooted in Christ amid distractions and false ideas. Using Colossians 2:6–10, they emphasize practical preparation by knowing Scripture deeply and applying it rather than relying on feelings or quick gratification. They highlight James 1:19–25 on being doers of the Word, taking thoughts captive, and serving others as faith in action, sharing examples from ministry where God equips people as they step out. They also cover spreading the truth from 2 Timothy 4:1–5, noting the role of believers to sow seeds while the Holy Spirit changes hearts. The episode closes with a prayer of salvation based on Romans 10:9.

Pastor Shawn Kelly teaches From Colossians 2, his message warns believers not to be taken captive by hollow, deceptive philosophies rooted in human tradition rather than Christ, emphasizing that the most dangerous lie is denying who Jesus is. Using 2 Timothy 2, James 1, and 2 Timothy 4, he outlines three responses: prepare yourself by rightly handling Scripture and being ready for conversations; do what the Word says so faith becomes active and alive; and spread the truth by telling others about Jesus. He cites the improbability of fulfilling Old Testament prophecies, mentions eyewitnesses and secular historians who wrote about Jesus, and shares stories of faithful believers, a grieving man confronted with eternity, and Ehud to show God uses imperfect, unique people. The message ends with an invitation to confess Jesus as Lord in prayer.

On this episode of the In the Room podcast, Josh, Braden and Logan discuss Pastor Troy’s message in the core values series on the renamed value “Only One Truth,” rooted in John 17:17: “Your word is truth.” They explain the Bible as the fixed benchmark that doesn’t shift with culture, contrasting it with common changing benchmarks like feelings and popular opinion. Using imagery like building on a solid foundation rather than sand, they talk about how God’s unchanging truth brings identity, freedom, security, and something to pass on to future generations. They emphasize that believing Scripture isn’t enough—Hebrews 4:2 calls believers to mix the Word with faith through action, letting it shape everyday decisions. The episode ends with John 14:6 and a prayer inviting listeners to follow Jesus as the way, the truth, and the life.

In this Church on the Move Roswell message, Pastor Troy Smothermon teaches from Philippians 1:6 that God will finish the good work He started, urging listeners to trust the process with humility and the fear of the Lord rather than feelings or pride. Using examples like pilots relying on instruments, unfinished construction and artwork, and biblical figures such as Joseph, David, Abraham, and even Jesus’ years of preparation, he explains that God uses the in-between seasons to increase capacity—enlarging, stretching, lengthening, and strengthening character before visible increase. He emphasizes that God often works invisibly before visibly and that blessings are meant to overflow to bless others. The message concludes with an invitation to surrender to Jesus in a real relationship through prayer for salvation or renewed commitment.

In this Church on the Move Roswell message, Pastor Troy Smothermon revisits Jesus’ two greatest commandments—love God with all your heart, soul, and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself—explaining they are commands rooted in love and relationship because God’s very essence is loving relationship within the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He connects this to the church’s updated core value “Only One Truth,” teaching that the Bible is the fixed benchmark of objective truth that cannot shift with culture, opinions, or trends, contrasting it with “progressive” or subjective truth and warning that moving the benchmark leads to instability like building on shifting sand. Citing multiple scriptures, he urges listeners to believe and live God’s Word, forgive others, and choose Jesus as the only way to the Father, ending with an invitation to pray for salvation or return to God.

Jonah, Bri, and Josh discuss Pastor Troy’s new core values sermon series, focusing on the first value: loving God, people, and nothing else, based on Matthew 22:37–40. They reflect on a sermon clip about the freedom of stopping “scorekeeping” in relationships and trusting that God notices and repays. The conversation highlights how people overcomplicate following God, using an Instagram example of Brian Guan’s “Faithless Christianity” challenge involving prayer, reading Scripture, gratitude, and application, which led to noticeable life change and increased kindness. They talk about how receiving God’s love enables healthy self-love and genuine love for others, how love is often watered down culturally, and how making love your “why” sustains consistency beyond motivation. The episode closes with an invitation prayer to meet Jesus and service times.

He teaches that applying God’s Word changes lives and emphasizes trusting God’s process, including healing that may happen “on the way” through obedience. Using Philippians 1:6, he explains that God finishes what He begins, often doing invisible work before visible results, and that believers must continue the last instruction God gave.

In this Church on the Move Roswell message, Pastor Troy Smothermon reaffirms the church’s first core value—“love God and people and nothing else”—and teaches from Matthew 22:37–40 that loving God fully and loving your neighbor as yourself summarizes all the Law and the Prophets. He contrasts relationship with religion, warns against giving affection to possessions, and describes how love is sacrificial, serves, and doesn’t keep score, bringing peace and freedom in marriage, family, work, and ministry. He shares how pursuing love scriptures helped him learn real love, citing Romans 5:5 that God’s love is poured into believers’ hearts by the Holy Spirit. The message ends with an invitation to surrender to Jesus, followed by a prayer of salvation and encouragement to keep pursuing God’s love.

Tim Aguilar hosts Jacob and Madi on the In the Room podcast to discuss Pastor Troy’s recent “lighthouse” message and 3 John 1:2 about prospering in all things as the soul prospers.
