He didn’t just save my life… He reached back to protect my future.

Q&A with Pastor Joe Moss II: Professional Pastors vs. Pastors Who Are Professionals

Description:
In this raw and revealing Q&A episode, Pastor Joe Moss II—founder of Make God Famous Church, Wrestle Well Training, and BlessBody Fit Academy—breaks down the powerful difference between professional pastors and pastors who are professionals.

This isn’t just a conversation about titles—it’s a wake-up call for anyone who feels called to lead, disciple, or make a difference where they are. Pastor Joe shares why Make God Famous Church was born, how Daniel’s leadership still speaks today, and why your profession might be your pulpit.

If you’ve ever wrestled with your role in the Kingdom, this episode is your blueprint for bold, everyday ministry.

🎙️ Topics Covered:

• Why the Church needs presence over performance

• How to pastor beyond the pulpit

• Discipleship through fitness, leadership, and lifestyle

• The real mission behind Make God Famous Church

"What do you do when you're winning battles but losing strength?"

"You’re conquering on the outside — but collapsing on the inside. Let’s reset the temple."

"Victory isn’t enough if your soul is starving. This is your call to refuel."

You can be winning battles in life and ministry — and still be completely worn out inside.

In this powerful message from Week 5 of the This Is My Temple series, Pastor Joe Moss II shows how even bold spiritual leaders like Elijah (1 Kings 19:3–8) faced emotional burnout, exhaustion, and hidden emptiness after great public victories.

Many high-capacity leaders today are winning publicly but breaking down privately — and it’s often because we’ve neglected the daily refueling our temples need to sustain purpose.

Drawing from 1 Corinthians 10:31 (fueling everything for God’s glory), Galatians 6:9 (not growing weary in well-doing), and Isaiah 40:29–31 (renewing our strength through God), this message helps you:

• Understand the dangers of spiritual burnout and hidden exhaustion.

• Recognize the importance of mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual fuel.

• See why leadership health matters just as much as leadership skill.

• Learn how purpose-driven living requires daily maintenance, not just big moments.

• Reset your temple through spiritual disciplines, real rest, and right habits.

• Build endurance to carry the glory over a lifetime — not just flash for a moment.

If you’ve been leading on empty, serving while starving, or fighting while fatigued, this message is your call to reset your temple and refuel your life — God's way.

Key Scriptures from today's message:
📖 1 Kings 19:3–8 — Elijah’s crash and recovery
📖 1 Corinthians 10:31 — Fueling your life for the glory of God
📖 Galatians 6:9 — Persevering without growing weary
📖 Isaiah 40:29–31 — Strength renewed for the journey

Today’s Declaration:

“This is my temple.
It belongs to God.
No more running on fumes.
I am fueled for my calling.
I am strong enough to carry the glory.
I will finish my race full of faith, fire, and strength.
In Jesus’ name — Amen!”
