Nate Diaz of Elevation Rhythm joins Pastor Bill for an honest conversation about worship, identity, church hurt, ministry, and what happens when your calling starts getting tangled up with your ego.

Nate opens up about learning to separate who he is from what he does, walking away from compromise even when it cost him, and why being a minister has to come before being an artist. He also shares the story behind Elevation Rhythm’s “Goodbye Yesterday” — from hearing the original demo and crying in his car to Steven Furtick helping reshape the bridge and watching a song people initially didn’t connect with become something that reached a generation.

But the conversation goes deeper than music. Nate talks about finding identity beyond the stage, why God’s approval comes before achievement, healing from church hurt without walking away from community, and why real worship begins when we stop making ourselves the center of it.

What does it mean to live by the truth in a world that often rejects it? In this message, we look at Romans 1 and the power of the Gospel to save and transform our lives. Discover why Christians are called to be commissioned, not comfortable, how to worship God for who He is instead of only what He gives, and why knowing biblical truth isn’t enough—we have to live it. Following Jesus means more than agreeing with His Word; it means applying it, standing firm in faith, and living unashamed of the Gospel.

Keenan Clark grew up in church and never left — but there came a day when God told him he couldn't let his flesh think it got away with anything, and that he had to sit down with his own father and confess all of it. In this conversation with Pastor Bil Cornelius, Keenan talks about the meeting that could have cost him his job, what happened to his ministry in the months after he dragged himself into the light, and why he believes conviction is the one thing in ministry you can't manufacture. It's an honest conversation about repentance, the years nobody sees, the real price of being used by God — and a couple of stories he almost didn't tell.

What are the five things every believer is designed to do, and are you actually living them? In this message, we explore the early church's example in Acts 2 and uncover the Holy Spirit's blueprint for every church and every Christian.

What happens when the church faces opposition and responds with prayer instead of panic? In this message, we explore the believers' bold response to persecution in Acts 4 and discover what it truly means to be an unstoppable church.

If you want to face opposition with faith instead of fear and see the Holy Spirit fill you with courage for whatever you're facing, this message will strengthen and inspire you.

What does it take to reach thousands with the gospel in a single day? In this message, we explore the story of Pentecost in Acts 2 and uncover a strategy for evangelism that's as relevant today as it was in the early church. Learn why the best outreach opportunities are often hiding in plain sight within our everyday cultural rhythms, why speaking someone's language matters more than we realize, and how staying focused on reaching lost people—rather than repelling them—can open the door for the gospel to be clearly and powerfully proclaimed. If you want to see the people around you encounter Jesus in a way that truly makes sense to them, this message will equip and inspire you to join in what God is doing.

Topics include his early days leading worship as a teenager, his interracial marriage and the backlash from his own church, and what it means to stay grounded when the spotlight gets bigger than the mission.

What does it truly mean to be unstoppable in your faith? In this message, we explore the story of the early church in Acts 1 and discover why every unstoppable move of God starts with stopped knees. Learn why God calls us to a waiting room before He calls us to a strategy, why prayer isn't a detour on the way to purpose but the path itself, and how surrendering our own agenda opens the door to a life that's both eternity-impacting and abundantly fulfilling. If you want to move from blazing forward on your own plans to walking in God's power and presence, this message will challenge you to stop, pray, and become truly unstoppable.

In a world that constantly pressures us to compromise, how do we stay strong in our faith?
