    Still Building Part 1 | Alvin Love III

    What if leadership in God’s Kingdom isn’t about being seen, but about being underneath? As we celebrate 14 years as a church and reflect on our anniversary theme, Still Building, Pastor Alvin walks through the story of the prodigal son and challenges us to rethink what it truly means to follow Jesus. Building leaders is really about building servants. And servants are the ones who prepare the table, welcome the lost home, and help carry the weight for others. At the center of this message is the power of being underneath. Following Jesus is a gradual process where your sense of self-importance decreases while your love for others increases. It can feel like you’re going into the ground, but in reality, God is positioning you to lift others up. Just as Jesus went underneath us and raised us with Him, we’re called to take that same posture in our homes, our church, and our city. Don’t mistake someone else being celebrated for your rejection. “Other people are important too” does not mean they are more important than you. The Father is able to handle your needs too. Because when you stay in the house, everything He has is already yours.   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

    Vision Sunday | Pastor Alvin III

    The vision for 2026 is more than just a strategic plan; it is a direct challenge to every member of our community. This week during Vision Sunday, Pastor Alvin explains why the "who" must always precede the "what" if we hope to see a lasting impact in our city and beyond. As we continue to pursue the vision, we learn growth requires much more than just additional space—it requires a community anchored in unity, connection, and a ready discipleship. Drawing from the wisdom of Exodus, Ephesians, and the Parable of the Sower, this episode explores why revival is only as sustainable as the people willing to build it, challenging us to move beyond a fleeting moment and step fully into our collective mission. Scripture references: Exodus 18:17-26 Matthew 13 Mark 4 Ephesians 4:12-16 Isaiah 6:1-8 ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

    Vision Pt 2 | Pastor Alvin III

    Last week, we laid the foundation: Knowing God and Finding Freedom. But as many of us know, the real challenge isn’t just finding freedom—it’s keeping it. In this week’s episode, Pastor Alvin walks us through the second half of our vision: Discovering Purpose and Making a Difference. Why do so many of us find it difficult to remain free? The answer often lies in our surroundings. Through the lens of Matthew 12, Pastor Alvin teaches that freedom cannot exist in a vacuum. To sustain your breakthrough, you must be intentional about your environment, ensuring you are consistently tethered to individuals and communities that are conducive to healing. If you’ve ever felt stuck between your past healing and your future calling, this message is your roadmap to building a life that doesn’t just "get free," but stays free to make a lasting impact.   Scripture references: Ephesians 2:8 Matthew 12:43-45 2 Peter 1:5-10 Matthew 11:28 Galatians 5:16 ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

    Vision Pt 1 | Pastor Alvin III

    Pastor Alvin unpacks the first two steps of our church’s vision and why they are foundational for every believer. Knowing God is not about getting your life together first. It begins with coming to Jesus and trusting the mercy that brings us from death to life. But knowing God is only the beginning. Jesus also invites us to find freedom by laying aside the weights that slow us down. Shame, fear, regret, pride, and isolation all keep us from running the race God has set before us. Through Scripture and practical teaching, this message shows how freedom is sustained through community and why walking with others creates the kind of environment where healing lasts. This is the starting point. Knowing God and finding freedom prepare us for what’s next as we discover our purpose and learn how to make a difference.   Scripture references: Scripture references Matthew 11:28 Ephesians 2:1–6 Hebrews 12:1 Matthew 12:43–45   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

    The Greatest Year | Pastor Pearson Pretorius

    This week, we are honored to welcome back Pearson Pretorius from 3C Church in South Africa for a powerful, paradigm-shifting message. While many seek a year of "glory" or "blessing," Pastor Pearson challenges us to pursue something deeper: The Greatest Year. Drawing from Colossians 2, this episode is a call to move away from "outside-in" Christianity—where we strive for religious approval—and into an "inside-out" life fueled by the Spirit. If you’ve felt exhausted by the pressure to "do more" for God, this message is your invitation to trade religious effort for true communion. In this episode, we discuss: The Abel Heart: Learning to seek intimacy with God rather than credit from men. Breaking the Transaction: Why God’s heart is found in the depth of your walk, not the height of your performance. The Power of Yielding: Moving from human strength to the freedom and healing found in Zechariah 4:6. Identity in Christ: Remembering that everything you need is already found in Him—not in the traditions or "rules" of men. Stop striving for a breakthrough and start living from the rest that Christ has already provided. Because God doesn’t want you to do more; He wants you to seek more.   Scripture references: Colossians 2:6–10 Zechariah 4:6 Ephesians 2:8–10 John 15:14 Matthew 7:21–23 Psalm 51:16–17 Genesis 4:1–7   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

    Pray First Pt 4 | Pastor Alvin III

    In Part 4 of our Pray First series, Pastor Alvin breaks down the ancient blueprint of the Tabernacle Prayer—a step-by-step journey designed by God to lead us from the outer courts straight into the Holy of Holies. In this episode, we explore: The Access Path: Navigating the biblical pattern of thanksgiving, the cross, and the Word. The Prayer Ceiling: Identifying the unconfessed sins and distractions that limit your ability to hear God’s voice. The Encounter: How to move beyond surface-level "to-do lists" and into a face-to-face, heart-to-heart connection. When we follow His pattern and choose to Pray First, we don’t just recite words—we enter the Presence. Scripture references: Exodus 25:8–9 Mark 4:18–19 Psalm 100:4 Psalm 103:2–5 2 Timothy 1:6–7 Ephesians 6:17 1 Timothy 2:1–2   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

    Pray First: The Prayer of Jabez | Pastor Alvin III

    In Part 2 of our Pray First series, Pastor Alvin walks through the Prayer of Jabez and shows how bold, faith-filled prayer positions us to live beyond our past, our shame, and our self-sufficiency. Jabez’s life began with pain, but his prayer pointed toward blessing, influence, and purpose. This message challenges us to trust God’s heart, ask for His blessing without fear, depend on His presence, and walk in His protection. Because when we pray first, we stop leaning on ourselves and start living as people called to make an eternal difference. Prayer isn’t passive. It’s how we align our lives with a God who is more than enough. Scripture References: 1 Chronicles 4:9–10 (The Prayer of Jabez) Genesis 12:3 Genesis 26:12–13 2 Corinthians 10:15–16 Acts 11:21 Psalm 3:1–3 We’d love to hear from you!

    Pray First: The Lord's Prayer | Pastor Alvin III

    Most of us approach prayer as a way to earn God’s favor, but what if it’s actually about positioning ourselves to receive what He has already promised? In this episode, Pastor Alvin breaks down the Lord’s Prayer to reveal Jesus’ true blueprint for a life rooted in relationship, not performance. We explore how "praying first" shifts our perspective from self-sufficiency to total trust, bringing the atmosphere of Heaven into our daily reality. It’s time to stop striving and start getting back in position.   Scripture references: Luke 11:1 Matthew 6:9-15 (The Lord’s Prayer) ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.
