Gratitude can fade when God’s mercy starts to feel familiar. In Week 1 of Still Thankful, we look at Paul’s story and remember where mercy found us, who came to our rescue, and why our response is praise.

In Evidence of the Unseen, guest speaker Sam Johnson from Priority One shares powerful stories of what God has done around the world through simple steps of faith and obedience.

Using Hebrews 11:1, Sam reminds us that faith often moves before we can see the outcome. What begins as a vision, a burden, or a step of obedience can become something far greater when we trust God with what we cannot yet see.

As we continue to build God’s Kingdom, we are challenged to believe beyond what is visible, trust God with the results, and remember that what He begins through our faithfulness can impact generations.

In The Pivot of Purpose, we look at Mary Magdalene’s encounter with the risen Jesus in John 20 and discover that salvation was never meant to end with us. Mary had to turn away from the empty tomb, recognize the voice of Jesus, and then carry the good news to others.

You weren’t just saved from something. You were saved for something. It’s time to go and tell.

In The Pivot of Hope, we follow Jairus through one of the hardest moments imaginable. He comes to Jesus desperate for his dying daughter, watches Jesus pause while time is running out, and then receives the devastating report that she has died. But Jesus responds with four powerful words: “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”

When the clock is ticking, the report feels final, and hope is running low, Jesus reminds us that the story is not over simply because we cannot see the outcome yet. 

In The Pivot of Perspective, we look at the man Jesus encountered in Mark 5 and discover that our worst moments do not have to define our identity. Jesus crossed the storm to reach someone everyone else had written off, restored his life, and then turned his painful history into a testimony.

Your scars are not signs of failure. They can become proof of rescue. Pivot Week 4 - Perspective

In The Pivot of Surrender, we look at Mary’s extravagant act of worship in John 12 and what it means to fully release control to Jesus. Surrender isn’t giving God a convenient piece of our lives—it’s handing Him the whole jar: our plans, our timelines, our security, and even the opinions of others. 

Break the jar. Hold nothing back. Make the pivot.

In The Pivot of Honesty, we look at Jesus’ encounter with the woman at the well in John 4. She had built her life around hiding, shame, and searching for fulfillment in places that could never satisfy. But Jesus met her exactly where she was, brought the truth into the light, and offered her living water.

You don’t have to hide from a God who already knows.

Name your thirst. Drop your jar.

What happens when disappointment creates distance between you and God? In Luke 24, two disciples walked seven miles away from Jerusalem—yet Jesus was walking beside them the entire time. Discover why, before you can make the pivot, you need an Anchor: Jesus and His Word.

What will outlive you? In the final chapter of David’s story, we discover that spiritual legacy isn’t built through comfort—it’s built through repentance, obedience, and costly commitment. Inheritance is what you leave to someone. Legacy is what you leave in someone.

The Voice with Value

Everyone has a voice speaking into their life—but not every voice deserves your attention. In this message, we look at David, Nathan, and the importance of discerning the voices that challenge us, encourage us, and point us toward Jesus. Learn how to recognize godly wisdom, test what you hear through Scripture and prayer, and surround yourself with people who will help you grow in your faith.

Don’t ignore His voice.
