Jason Burgbacher helps lead Faith Church in Summerville, SC - one of the largest churches in the Charleston, SC area. Faith Church is the very first church that Pastor Kevin Simmons worked at. He worked there as an intern after his freshman year in college! Jason and Pastor Kevin have a friendship first forged when they were at Faith Church almost 30 years ago! Jason's insight and ability to communicate the Word of God have impacted many, and we can't wait to hear from him today!

Pastor Monté Dillard Sr. served as the Senior Pastor of the First Church of God Christian Life Center in Evanston, Illinois until recently taking on the role of interim leader of his denomination. He has served as one of the leading voices within his denomination, within his local community as the Chaplain for the Evanston, IL Fire Department, and within the global church as he travels and speaks. We are blessed to have Pastor Dillard with us today!

Pastor Jonathan Pearson, Lead Pastor of Springwell Church.

Pastor Dan Stallbaum led East Coast Christian Church in Merritt Island, FL from just a handful of people to a church that raised up multiple campuses and served thousands of people each week. He currently serves at one Vortex Church's Overseers - a board of Pastors and mentors that help advise the church and Pastor Kevin. For years Pastor Dan has made it his mission to add value to Vortex and serve our Pastor. We are so blessed by him and know you will be as well!

During this message, Pastor Kevin is going to teach through Philippians 3 encouraging us to shift our confidence from religious achievements or past experiences to a deep, growing relationship with Jesus. True and lasting joy comes not from what’s behind or from striving to earn God’s love, but by pressing forward in faith, trusting that the best is yet to come in Christ.
